Adults Who Started Gambling as Teens - Online Betting Addiction

He got hooked on betting at age 11. By college he gambled 15 hours a day. Hi everyone, this is Suzy Khimm - I’m a national reporter for NBC News who posted a request here last month to speak with folks who started betting as teenagers. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/teens-hooked-sports-betting-apps-rcna264110 I’m deeply grateful to the Redditors who reached out in response, along with other folks in recovery that I spoke to. I wanted to share the story that we published today. It looks at how kids across the U.S. are now gambling online, and how some got hooked and developed a full-blown addiction as teenagers (or even younger). Thank you again to this forum and the moderator for welcoming me here. I will be continuing to cover this issue in depth, so please don’t hesitate to reach out if there’s something you think deserves attention.
