Hi everyone, so thankful to have come across this forum.
I have applied for ADP and I’m in the process of uploading supporting evidence. I have a gambling addiction which I am getting help for. Will my application be terminated for telling them this?

No, not at all. ADP is awarded to those that have a disability that affects their daily life. Whether your claim will be successful will totally depend on how your conditions affect you.
