Understanding Gambling Addiction – Breaking the Cycle in Tennessee
Gambling addiction, also known as gambling disorder, is a behavioral health condition that affects thousands of individuals and families across Tennessee. Unlike substance use disorders, gambling addiction is often invisible, but its impacts can be equally devastating. At Kingdom Recovery Center, we offer compassionate, evidence-based gambling addiction treatment tailored to each individual’s needs.
Gambling addiction occurs when the thrill of betting becomes uncontrollable, leading to financial struggles, broken relationships, and emotional distress. Commonly associated with casinos, sports betting, and online platforms, gambling addiction can affect people from all walks of life. It is not about a lack of willpower—it is a recognized mental health condition that requires professional intervention.
Our Tennessee-based center specializes in treating gambling addiction with a holistic approach that addresses both the behavior and its underlying causes. Whether you’re seeking help for yourself or a loved one, Kingdom Recovery Center is here to provide the support and tools needed to break the cycle and build a healthier future.

Gambling addiction doesn’t only impact your finances—it affects your mental, emotional, and social health in profound ways. Often called a “hidden addiction” because it lacks visible physical symptoms, gambling addiction can quietly erode every aspect of life before you even realize it’s a problem.
Gambling addiction often leads to mounting debt, strained resources, and financial ruin. Desperation to recoup losses can result in risky decisions like borrowing or theft.
The secretive nature of gambling addiction often leads to withdrawal from family, friends, and community.
• Broken trust and strained relationships within families.
• Negative impacts on employers and workplaces due to reduced productivity or theft.
• Increased strain on community support services.
At Kingdom Recovery Center, we work to reverse these negative effects by treating the person
holistically—addressing not just the addiction, but the emotional and social damage it causes.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email krc@kingdomrecoverycenter.org
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to krc@kingdomrecoverycenter.org
Many individuals struggling with gambling addiction experience shame, guilt, and anxiety over their behavior. These feelings can worsen over time, leading to mental health conditions such as depression.
