A little flutter every now and again never did me any harm, I don't know anyone who has admitted it did 🤷♀️
The occasional bit of excitement's fun though, right?
But, when that gambling becomes a problem, it comes with a host of warning signs and symptoms.
Here are just a few.
(NOTE- These are provided as an illustration only, are not a diagnosis of a problem, and are not to be relied upon as some signs and symptoms listed below could equally apply to someone in different circumstances.)
Here's a quick glimpse into some of the Signs & Symptoms associated with Problem Gambling:
👉 Changes in Behaviour
- That occasional flutter has now become a daily, or almost daily event
- The gambling continues, even after promises to stop
- Gambling losses are dismissed, ignored, and not disclosed
👉 During Gambling
- Gambling for 3 hours or more without a break becomes normal
- No idea what's going on around them, as they're focused on the gambling
- Mood changes during a gambling session
👉 After Gambling
- Feelings of remorse, guilt, depression, and hopelessness
- Fears others will find out
- Worries about having to find the money needed to cover living expenses
👉 Financial Signs
- Increased use of credit cards
- Mounting debts, consistently late in paying bills, or missed payments
- Hides financial statements or is secretive and may be deceitful about money
💡 Never assume to know what's going on in someone's life.
The Good News... 🎉
The sooner the problem is addressed, the easier it is to overcome.
And
You weren't born with this problem, it's a learned behaviour, a coping strategy if you like, which means it can be UN-learned.
And that's where I come in.

When you're ready to ditch this bad habit, this Problem Gambling, you can.
Hypnotherapy works at the subconscious level where those urges, triggers, and behaviours are stored.
And by accessing that stored information, we can effectively reset that now old, unhelpful habit called 'Problem Gambling'.
So, if this was a problem for you, and if you could hit the reset button on this part of your life, would you?
What difference will it make to you and your loved ones when you do hit the reset button on this problem?
