Answer by Not A Noob lololol
A Gambling Addiction is a sickness, and it needs treated immediatley or lives will be ruined. It can affect the wellbeing of the family by spending all of the family money to buy lottery tickets if your addiction gets bad enough, and then when you have no family, that’s when it starts affecting YOU. You have no money and you’re doing anything you can for a dollar or two to spend on a scratch-off. You have no house, no family, no life, no money. You will be sad, lonely, and very sick if you let a gambling addiction untreated
