Mohit loves betting on sports, but lately he's been spending a lot of money on it. He's worried that he might have a gambling problem. How can he determine if he's addicted to gambling and get help?
ReplyThere are some warning signs of gambling addiction, such as increasing the amount of money and time spent on gambling, hiding your gambling habits from others, and experiencing withdrawal symptoms when trying to stop. If you can relate to these warning signs, it's important to seek help from a professional counselor or support group.
Another way to assess if you have a gambling addiction is to track your gambling expenses and compare them to your income. If you find that you're consistently spending more money on gambling than you can afford, it may be a red flag to seek help.
Talking to trusted friends or family members can also help you determine if your gambling has become a problem. They may have noticed changes in your behavior or attitude towards gambling that you may not have noticed yourself.
