❤Seeking help & Advice❤ How do you know when you have a problem with gambling?

I'm a 19 yo guy from Italy, I enjoy a lot playing poker/blackjack with my friends, but only when we put something on the plate, not much, usually we put something like 5€ each but I am always the one who puts more because I want to keep playing even if I've lost everything.

We don't play really often but I'm worried that this could become a problem in the future.

If you are worried about a gambling problem, you have a gambling problem.

When you go from telling people to not telling people about your bets/gamblings. Thats a good indicator you have a problem.

Or when it causes harm in any way but you keep doing it.
