Gambling addiction - A stacked deck

However, an individual’s addiction to gambling, as destructive as any other addiction, may not surface as quickly but the consequences can be every bit as devastating.
It can be, for far too long, a hidden mania that can drive ordinarily rational people to the most dangerous extremes. This reality intrudes more and more into the lives of those vulnerable to this wretched addiction as a mobile phone is so often just a personal, 24/7 bookies’ office. The affliction and its temptations are all but inescapable.
