Gambling: What It Is and What It Is Not
What is Gambling? Gambling occurs when a person continues to gamble despite its negative effects on their life. It stimulates the brain’s reward system in much the same way as addictive substances. Gambling harms both the individual and those around them. What Gambling Is Not: Gambling addiction is not easy to recognize.
