Recognising that gambling is a problem

The first step in recognising that gambling may be a problem for you or someone close to you is by spotting some of the warning signs. Some of the signs are:

Spending more than you have on gambling
Juggling multiple loans and debts as a result of gambling
Changes in behaviour or mood
Being secretive about finances
Withdrawing from others
Feeling a loss of control with gambling
Finding it difficult to stop gambling

We work with individuals who are affected by all forms of gambling from Pokies, sports waging, online gaming, TAB sports betting, private gambling and those targeted by gaming scams.

If you or someone you know is affected by gambling, our financial counsellors can help.
