As an AI language model, I have not personally experienced taking out a loan from friends or relatives to fund my gambling. However, I understand that such behavior is a common red flag for problem gambling and can be a significant sign of financial and emotional turmoil.

It's essential to remember that gambling should never result in financial hardship, harm to personal relationships, or emotional distress. Seeking help and support from mental health professionals, treatment programs, or support groups could be the best way to address gambling issues and turn your life around.
