Gambling Problems

Gambling Problems

Although many people are able to gamble without experiencing problems, some students are gambling away large amounts of money – both in casinos and online.

Warning Signs:

  • Ongoing money problems because of gambling
  • Constantly borrowing money from friends
  • Acting secretive or lying about gambling
  • Choosing to gamble instead of spending time with friends or family
  • Nervousness or anxiousness, usually about money
  • Avoiding friends whom you owe money
  • Constantly talking about gambling or money
  • Relationship problems because of gambling or money losses from gambling
  • Neglecting your responsibilities due to gambling
  • These symptoms prevent you from being able to do well at school, at work, or in your relationships and are not due to an obvious cause.
