Gambling addiction refers to problematic gambling behaviour in which a person loses control over their gambling. Gambling increasingly takes on an important role in everyday life, and the urge to gamble becomes stronger.

Gambling can increasingly influence a person’s thoughts and behaviour. This often involves constantly thinking about the next opportunity to gamble or a possible win, finding money to finance gambling, and attempting to hide or make up for financial or social losses.

Important: If you feel that you are losing control over your gambling behaviour, we recommend seeking support at an early stage.
