SUMMARY:The Intersection of Gambling and Opioid Use Disorder
DESCRIPTION:Approximately 96% of persons with an identified Gambling Disorder have another co-occurring behavioral health condition\, and it is often the co-occurring condition that brings the person with problems related to gambling into treatment.  Evidence further suggests that only those with the most severe gambling disorder symptoms will ever seek treatment.
