The Problem Gambling Help Network of West Virginia/First Choice Services

At least 1 in 50 West Virginians experiences problem gambling, yet it is rarely screened for in medical and mental health settings. Even though those who struggle with gambling addiction have one of the highest rates of suicide, most professionals fail to recognize this disorder. We will discuss the many forms of gambling available in West Virginia, including why some are more addictive, the symptoms of gambling disorder, risk factors, and treatment options.
