Gambling Disorder and Increased Psychiatric Comorbidity: A Finnish Register-Based Study
Diagnosed GD is associated with elevated rates of psychiatric disorders, particularly PD, SSD and SUD. These findings highlight the importance of comprehensive mental health assessment in individuals with GD. Frontline social and healthcare professionals should be attentive to the high occurrence of psychiatric comorbidities in this population to ensure timely and appropriate care.
