I was with one of my old friends yesterday and he was addicted to football gambling to the extent that he is finding it very difficult to sleep and do normal activities. He has won some of betting he has played on but correctly want to give it some time off. He is asking for general advice if drugs can help.

Drugs (legal) MUST be ALWAYS prescribed by Medical Doctor and not taken randomly.
Using illegal drugs or (the legal) without a prescriptions is a strong risk for personal health and future of a person.
Gambling addiction It's a serious matter that should be taken seriously and discussed with health professional.

That is so dumb of a thought how can one replace addiction with another, if your friend is so addicted and want to find a way out is not to dive into drugs it's better he finds the root of the addiction and once he can solve it then he will be better off.

May be changing environment can help because addiction flows in its comfort zone Advise the friend to take a total break from betting and focus more on some other activities that are of interest, the drug is not a solution as it can make him more miserable in the future.

No, it won't help him. You should not advise him to use that because I am afraid that he can get an addiction to that. Perhaps, you can ask him to have another activity and not stay at home for a long time and stay away from all of his devices for some time. That can work for him as he will not think about his devices, instead of using that activity to distract his mind from thinking about football. You can go beside him while he does his activity and talks to each other because that really helps him solve his addiction.

If you only aim to make it easier to sleep, you can take sleeping pills without having to be a drug user. Since the problem you're talking about is difficulty sleeping or resting, it's a different case if you want to experience different sensations like taking drugs then taking it might be the goal. But still, drug use will not be good for your finances and also your health, no matter you win big from gambling because in the end the money you have will only be wasted on buying drugs.

It depends on addiction level and it should be advised by the psychiatrist or the one who is treating the addiction and rehabilitation people from such activities. Taking pills on yourself is not going to help anything but it can worsen the things further if he addicted to those pills.

If gambling is the one causing the anxiety and lack of sleep yes why not, some doctors are administering prescription drugs to quiet the nerves it's actually part of the therapy, but if it is a drug that is not prescribed but over the counter antidepressant it could worsen your friend's situation, we should not advise anyone from taking drugs without consulting a professional first, drugs have a side effect.

Lol! It's like taking a loan to pay off an existing loan. It seems your friend needs medical attention rather than anything else. Because fronlm your statement, it seems, you friend needs an addiction all the time to stay alive which is bad and damaging at the same time.

If you have a helpline number where free counseling can be done against addiction, please recommend that to your friend.

Lol, you are right. Taking pills to treat gambling addiction:) The next time you will need to take other piils to take your pill's addiction. I think everyone should just stop playing if they have any addiction and not trying to tell themselves that they can't.

Drugs will not be able to stop someone's addiction without a strong desire to quit from that person...

if your friends don't make losses and mess like creating debts or harming family during betting then it's not a bad thing, all you need to do is help him manage his emotions and addictions, give him your best advice as a friend.

what kind of drugs exactly? anyway, I don't think general advice would help. he should go to a rehabilitation center to get proper treatment. taking drugs without proper supervision could lead to another addiction. if your friend wants to change his habit I extremely recommend getting proper help and not just asking for advice from people that do not have the proper experience.

No, it won't. That's a pretty dumb mindset to have ngl, Yes, it might remove him from his addiction from gambling, but it doesn't really solve the root problem since drugs would simply replace the void that was opened up due to forgetting about gambling. I honestly would recommend getting another hobby instead, maybe Gundam building, jogging, biking, idk. it may seem more expensive than gambling, but I'd honestly say it's a lot better since it wouldn't turn into an addiction, unlik gambling.

The better way indeed is to find another activity that will freshen up his mind. But with the situation in most countries, it is still hard to move around why a lot are still preferring to stay at home. And you can only do much when you are inside. Maybe as a start, he needs to see a professional doctor, and asks his situation. Being in the depressed mode or with this anxiety thing is very hard and most of the time, you can't manage it on your own.

Drugs mean? Drugs prescribed by a doctor? I don’t think so.
Or if you are talking about some drug addiction, that's not the way to get out of gambling. He is simply getting engaged with something else which will eventually ruined his life at the end. Getting out gambling is a practice. You have to set goal to reduce it, not to directly get out of this.

That would make him more miserable if it's an over the counter drug but if the drug comes from a doctor who examines him and as a means for you to get more relaxed and do away with anxiety, I think it will help, people should not take drugs that are not prescribed by professionals, unprescribed drugs or a drug recommended by people will do more harm than good.
