In addition, it includes a \u201ccommitment to continue to gamble despite experiencing adverse consequences, or despite evidence that other life activities have been disrupted by the behavior\u201d).<\/p>\n<p>A gambling addiction can be very difficult to treat. Some people are more prone to the problem than others.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the common signs and symptoms of a gambling addiction include:<\/p>\n<p>Dissociation: For some, gambling can be an escape from stressful or painful emotions. Some games encourage this more than others, especially slot machines and poker.<\/p>\n<p>Loss of control: Some problem gamblers have a hard time controlling their money and time, and may increase their bets when they are winning or decrease their bets when they are losing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gambling is a form of entertainment where people bet on events with an element of chance.
