Gambling Addiction
For many people, gambling is harmless fun, but it can become a problem. This type of compulsive behavior is often called “problem gambling.”
A gambling addiction is a progressive addiction that can have many negative psychological, physical, and social repercussions. It is classed as an impulse-control disorder.
Problem gambling is harmful to psychological and physical health. People who live with this addiction may experience depression, migraine, distress, intestinal disorders, and other anxiety-related problems.
As with other addictions, the consequences of gambling can lead to feelings of despondency and helplessness. In some cases, this can lead to attempts at suicide.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Is gambling addiction really a clinical disorder?
Yes. Gambling disorder is formally recognised in both DSM-5 and ICD-11 as a behavioural addiction, with symptoms and brain-reward changes closely paralleling substance use disorders.
Is medication used to treat gambling addiction?
There’s no medication specifically approved for gambling disorder itself. Medication may be used to treat co-occurring conditions like anxiety or depression, as part of a broader treatment plan led by psychotherapy.
What screening tool will be used to assess me or my family member?
Our clinical team may use one or more validated tools, such as the SOGS, NODS, VGS or CPGI, alongside DSM-5 criteria and a full clinical interview, to understand severity and guide the treatment plan.
Can gambling addiction be treated without residential care?
Many cases are managed effectively through structured outpatient therapy. Residential treatment is generally recommended for more severe cases, significant financial or relational crisis, or where co-occurring conditions require closer support.
What is self-exclusion, and does it replace therapy?
Self-exclusion is a voluntary restriction from gambling venues or platforms. It’s a useful practical safeguard, but works best alongside, not instead of, structured therapy addressing the underlying drivers of gambling.
