The Hidden Addiction Podcast - Gambling Harm and the LGBTQIA Community

In this episode we welcome Liz A. in celebration of Pride Month to discuss the connection between gambling harm and the LGBTQIA+ community.

Have you seen gambling harm in your community groups?
How do we bridge the gap between awareness and action?
In your experience, what unique stressors or challenges within the LGBTQ community may increase vulnerability to gambling harms?
How do mental health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, or isolation, intersect with gambling in LGBTQ communities?
Do you think gambling is sometimes used as a coping mechanism within the LGBTQ community? Why or why not?
What barriers might LGBTQ individuals face when seeking help for gambling-related harms or addiction?
Are there specific environments, social spaces, or online communities where gambling is more normalized within LGBTQ culture?
How do we deliver targeted messaging without targeting people, leading them to feel “othered”?
What advice would you give to organizations or service providers that want to better support LGBTQ individuals affected by gambling harms?

If you find yourself struggling with gambling harm, or if you suspect someone you know is facing such challenges, don’t hesitate to seek help. For 24/7 support, call the NYS OASAS HOPEline at 1-877-846-7369 or text 467369. Or choose your county using our interactive map on our NYProblemGamblingHELP.org HOME PAGE to see the contact information for the Problem Gambling Resource Center (PGRC) in your region.
