Addiction: It’s Deeper Than the Law

Wild stat: Legal sports betting brought in $1.8B in state taxes last year, but problem gambling rates haven’t really budged. Turns out, making something illegal doesn’t magically fix addiction—whether it’s gambling or alcohol. Real talk: It’s about what’s going on inside, not just what’s legal or not. Laws can help, but real recovery starts with support, community, and facing your own pain. You can’t legislate away what’s really hurting people. #AddictionAwareness #MentalHealth #SportsBetting
