For the first time since 2010, in its annual drug addiction survey (ANDTS), Skellefteå has investigated gambling among young people.

The government wants the drug habit study to take gambling into account because of the risks of gambling addiction.

In Skellefteå, precisely the game about money has been reduced since 2010, but on the other hand, FRIS hears from the student health about young people who find it difficult to tear themselves away from online games.

"An addiction"

Municipal police Ewa Öberg Öström, who was present on Wednesday's report of the investigation, thinks it is good that gambling will come back in the investigation.

- It becomes an addiction when it is difficult to choose. There are many examples when you misuse the school, get tired and push energy drinks or something else to cope with, ”she says.
