Spelmissbruk

Spelmissbruk (gambling addiction) is gambling for money that harms finances and health, and it is treated on a par with other addiction in the Social Services Act (socialtjänstlagen). Being treated on a par means the municipality's social services have a responsibility to offer support for gambling problems too. Anyone who needs help can therefore turn to the social services in their municipality.
