Common signs include escalating bets, chasing losses, concealment behaviors, and growing personal or financial disruption; an early clinical review improves recovery outcomes.
Read this guideA self-assessment can reveal risk patterns quickly, but it should be used as a triage tool rather than a diagnosis.
