For you as a caregiver

Gambling addiction doesn't just affect the gambler - it can have a profound effect on the lives of family and friends. As a next of kin, you may experience feelings of worry, frustration and powerlessness - it's common and you're not alone. 

Spillavhengighet Norway offers support, advice and guidance for those close to someone struggling with gambling addiction. We give you the tools to understand the situation better, deal with the challenges and find hope for the future.
