On this weeks episode of 'Addicted" on 103.2 Dublin City FM, I interview Dr. Colin O Gara consultant psychiatrist at St. John of God's Hospital in Stillorgan, Co. Dublin. Gambling is a huge problem in Ireland and one I believe we are ignoring at a cost. It is estimated that Irish people gamble €5 billion per year. Dr. Colin estimates that between 5 and 7 per cent of the population are at risk to Gambling Addiction and within this 0.06 to 1per cent are pathological gamblers. In Dublin Gamblers Anonymous.
