You are more than your losses. There is hope. ๐Ÿ’™

Problem gambling can affect anyoneโ€”and for some, the emotional pain can become overwhelming. Feelings of shame, anxiety, depression, and even thoughts of su***de are more common than many people realize.

You donโ€™t have to face it alone.

At the Delaware Council on Gambling Problems, we provide free, confidential support, education, prevention, and referrals for individuals and families impacted by gambling. Recovery is possible, and asking for help is a sign of strength.

โœจ Hope starts with one conversation.

๐Ÿ“ž Call or text 1-888-850-8888
๐ŸŒ Visit www.deproblemgambling.org

If you or someone you know is having thoughts of su***de or is in emotional distress, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline. Help is available 24/7.

A major study found su***de is the leading cause of death among people with gambling disorder, highlighting the roles of debt, shame, and stigma.
