Lot of signs to be weary of:
1) Obsession with sports/teams/leagues you never once followed
2) Inordinate amount of time on the computer/television
3) Volatile mood swings
4) Loss of interest in other hobbies and families/friends
5) Urge to chase losses
6) Desire to consistently bet more games and more money
7) You plan well ahead of time your next "betting adventure"
8) Inability to successfully complete other aspects of your professional life (i.e. school, career, family obligations, etc...)
9) Sleep loss during rough stretches of gambling
10) Lack of development in others areas of life (i.e. physical, cognitively, emotionally, spiritually, socially, intellectually, culturally, etc...) because you are consistently watching and thinking about sports.
11) Weak sexual urges and desires and instead more reliance on sexual imagery (i.e. pornography) to stimulate yourself
12) More internet forum friends than real life friends/gaming forum replaces real life community
Many others.....

I never said I was not a compulsive gambler, I guess my hidden message here is that it is controlling most of our lives and we cannot stop.

Nicky that is sad, I feel sorry for you.
The 3 really fit me more than the others.

Nicky says it best, it is when gambling takes over your life whether you win or lose and that goes for most here.
