What is Problem Gambling?
Problem gambling is gambling behavior which causes disruptions in any major area of life: psychological, physical, social or vocational. The term 'Problem Gambling' includes, but is not limited to, the condition known as 'Pathological', or 'Compulsive' Gambling, a progressive addiction characterized by increasing preoccupation with gambling, a need to bet more money more frequently, restlessness or irritability when attempting to stop, 'chasing' losses, and loss of control manifested by continuation of the gambling behavior in spite of mounting, serious, negative consequences.
Problem gambling includes all gambling behavior patterns that compromise, disrupt or damage personal, family or vocational pursuits. Problem and PG impact a significant proportion of the population and are associated with decreased health and quality of life. Disordered gambling occurs at higher rates among certain subgroups in the community, such as individuals with SUDs, psychiatric disorders, among medical populations, and adolescents.
