VLT, Slot Machine, Pokies, Gambling Addiction

What are the signs of compulsive gambling?
When a full-blown compulsive gambling addiction is present, it’s pretty obvious. Outsiders can see that there’s a preoccupation with the attainment of money to go play a particular game, fantasizing about the outcome, a lack of other normative behaviors or a discounting of other normal behaviors. It’s more important to see the subtler pre-addiction symptoms developing in the individual, the potential gambling addict. It’s a gradual increase, a little bit more here, a little bit more there. Spending all their leisure time involved in gambling activities, or spending more time associating with people who involve themselves in the same activities. Once the gambling addiction is present in an individual, it’s almost too obvious. You can’t miss it. For more information visit www.aaalternatives.com
