For many people, gambling is not just a one-time lottery purchase on their 18th birthday or a game of blackjack at a bachelor party in Las Vegas. Gambling, for some, becomes an addictive activity that depletes their bank account and ruins their marriage.

Even if your spouse does not gamble every day and can afford to lose big at the roulette table, they may have a problem. Some of the telltale signs of gambling addiction include:

  • The inability to scale back or quit gambling.
  • Placing larger and larger bet.
  • Feeling an urge to keep gambling after losing.
  • Lying to conceal the extent of their gambling problem.
