Understanding Gambling Addiction Gambling addiction is characterized by an uncontrollable urge to continue gambling despite the negative consequences it has on one's life. Similar to substance use disorders, gambling addiction is associated with changes in the brain's reward system, leading to compulsive behavior and withdrawal symptoms when attempting to quit.

• Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money
• Unsuccessful attempts to control or stop gambling
• Feeling restless or irritable when unable to gamble
