Sažetak
Gambling disorder is well known as a hidden addiction and therefore is subjected to a prolonged time in seeking treatment. During the development of addiction, the psychosocial functioning is more openly or covertly disrupted, and gambling addicts manifest various problems and risky behaviors. At the same time, motivational mechanism for seeking professional help are complex and influenced by different individual circumstances. This study was conducted with N=315 patients in the Daily Clinic for Gambling Addiction. The psychosocial functioning of the patients is assessed at the beginning of the treatment, while a specific aim of this paper is to explore potential differences in their cognitive, emotional, relational, financial and occupational circumstances in relation to the time between the first symptoms of gambling disorder and the time they entered treatment at the Clinic. The results show the strongest effects on relational and financial variables, as well as on risky and criminal behaviors. Patients who had gambling problems longer before seeking help had more financial and legal problems. For the cognitive and emotional variables, the effects between patients were not significant because they all sought treatment with a fairly complex and severe clinical picture.
