Gambling Issues
When the apps, the odds, and the chase start running your life.
What starts as harmless entertainment, or a way to make watching sports more exciting, can spiral into a devastating compulsion.
Always one tap away
Constant access through apps makes it harder than ever to walk away.
Why willpower fails
The dopamine hit from near-misses and wins creates a powerful psychological hook. Logic goes out the window when you are trying to “win it back.” Structure and intervention are required to break the cycle.
