Safer Gambling Week Series Episode 5: Opening Up to Friends and Family About Gambling Issues

Struggling to open up to friends and family about gambling addiction without feeling embarrassed or judged? This video is for you. As part of our Safer Gambling Week campaign, AskGamblers surveyed UK sports bettors on barriers to seeking help. We found 11% would ask a therapist how to share their struggle with loved ones. We team up with Liz Karter, a leading UK gambling addiction therapist, to answer your toughest questions: • How to talk about gambling addiction with friends and family. • Should you talk to loved ones first, or go straight for professional help? • How to handle loved ones who unintentionally cause guilt, potentially preventing gambling recovery. Watch now for expert advice on taking the courageous first step toward seeking help. 🚨 Need Help? If you or someone you know is struggling with problem gambling, please seek confidential support immediately. #AskGamblers #AskGamblersTalks #SGWeek25 #SaferGamblingWeek #SafeGambling
