Playing is the priority in the gambler’s life beyond any negative consequence that may cause them to do so. It is a powerful addiction similar to alcoholism or drug addiction since the gambler’s life becomes a constant pathological need to play and bet at all costs, so they can lose all their possessions, get into debt, steal, or cheat to satisfy their urge. Although the exact cause of this compulsive gambling addiction is unknown, it is known to be due to genetic, biological, and psychosocial aspects. Potential risks: Being between 20 and 50 years old: although gambling can also occur at any age. Being male: it is more common in men, although in recent years there has been an upturn in the percentage of female gamblers. Social influence: when you have gambling relatives or friends, you are more likely to develop the same addiction. Mental problems: various disorders have been identified that are usually present in gamblers, such as anxiety, depression, bipolarity, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Hyperactivity, impulsiveness, competitiveness: these are factors that increase the risk of becoming a gambler.https://centromedicoabc.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/share-imagen-centro-medico-abc.png779406
