Every gambler knows sites and places like this but the main problem of these addicted gamblers is that they don’t agree that they are addicted and don’t listen to persons telling them to stop.The ones who realize that they have become addicted they call the above services and go there to seek help without any additional advice.

not exactly, there are gamblers(I know someone personally) who know and admitted that they are addicted to gambling but chose not to take any help because the urge to gamble is too strong. these kind of people are almost impossible to help and the hardest to rehabilitate if they ever to choose to go to a rehabilitation center.

It must be their own way of willingness to choose to rehabilitate themselves, and not through the advise of anyone else. Addicted gamblers chooses to be like that, and nobody urged them to become that worst. What happened is destined to happen, so it must start on their own because if they knew how to start; then ending it possibly will also have a definite solutions in order to stop the underlying problems.

I explored these sites in more detail and found that in one organization, people are helping, who have overcome addiction themselves. Their advice will be especially valuable because they have been through it themselves.

It would also be useful to create a topic with links to similar organizations from all over the world, not just from Australia.

Also, those gambling addicts should not be forced to give an advice to undergo rehab as most of the time they will reject it. Let them realize on their own that they need to change, because they will just deny the help if it is served on a platter. It is always better for them to look on their own mistakes and decide for themselves if they are going to change for the betterment of themselves or not.

Yes, like what I've said, it's better to start from yourself than regret it when you already lost a lot of things especially your family. Take a look at those advice and experiences of the other people who already suffered from gambling addiction. Definitely, every risky decision that you're making, there's a huge consequence on that so better keep in mind that we should have a moderate gambling activity. If you want to earn profit, I guess it's better to find a real job than spending a whole time just to win in gambling.

You must understand not only the fact that a person who has realized his addiction and illness is able to get rid of it himself. And for all other players, it will be useful to listen to other people. Especially those who themselves got rid of such dependence. They will be able to teach you how to want to get rid of the gambling habit.

The stories behind gambling addicts are sad. They lose the reality of things and sink into depression seeking to forget what hurts them. sincerely they need specialized help and the family plays an important role for their recovery.

I am also a witness to a gambling addict who lost everything she owned but never knew why she did it.

Mostly I see suicide when they are buried with loans just for their gambling habit.
They won't stop until they get it all back without paying attention to how much they owe to people.

It ain't normal. Just use what is in your pocket.
I have also seen guys pawn their gold accessories, car, and stuff they bring in casinos.
Forgot that it should just be an entertainment.

Just like I've seen in movies. They wouldn't have to kill themselves if they already owe a lot of money, the loan sharks will kill them.
Its entertainment but when money is lost, the gambler would bet it all to get more. Some people just desire more money in an unusual way and picking gambling can be easy for them.

My aunt gambles her money because she wants to forget her husband who is a ship captain and she obviously thinks he sleeps all women at every port. Until my aunt became addicted to gambling. A very unusual way of her but its what she did.

Bittraffic no offense, but your grandma has gambling issues! It's like in the movies, entire this topic,
because I can't imagine someone gambling his life so easily! I like to gamble, but there are limits, you
can't gamble with the money you don't have!!!
But looks like many people make this mistake! It's sad to see that, I try to have control and I don't know
anyone who is addicted gambler!
I hope you tried to help your grandma in some way, and if you did tell us what did you do and did it work.

For me, the family of gambling addicts is the one who can say if the person is addicted to gambling. And they should be the ones to help them. People will only realize when they are already suffering from addiction. The role of the family and friends are really needed for a gambling addict to conquer its addiction.

I doubt that the family of these ill people will surely help them in the first place. Mostly, the family members are not the one who will actually help to mitigate the problem but rather they just make the scenario even worse. The only option could be your bestfriend or any other people who will give an attention to your problem.

It depends on how the family makes actions. Of course, not every family can help them. Like you say, sometimes the family can trigger them more. But there are families who know how to handle this kind of situation. Your family members are the ones who can first see the changes in you, and they are the ones who can give attention to it. Personally, I think that friends are just friends. They don't have any responsibility to you unlike your family, but you are still lucky if you have that friend who is willing to help you overcome your addiction. Just like what they say, your family is always there for you (although it does not apply to every family).

We have a different perspective and I understand yours. Actually, it depends on a person's life whom he thinks can help him cope up with his gambling addiction. And for me, it's my family even though I am not addicted to gambling.

When something is in offer for free then most of the people don't give any attention to it. Roll Eyes

And one who already addicted will never agrees that he got addicted so only others have to help the addicted persons to get away from it like family members or friends should contact the service and ask how we should proceed with their loved one's case.

People who are addicted are hard to give advice because they do not think that advice is good, but with relatives or family that is the reason why gamblers should be close to them I am sure this problem will be overcome with enough time because it is not easy for addictions to Stop.

But they will play any means to bet and stay at home because that is the reason to avoid being advised by good people, so it must be controlled by it.

I explored these sites in more detail and found that in one organization, people are helping, who have overcome addiction themselves. Their advice will be especially valuable because they have been through it themselves.

It is always better for them to look on their own mistakes and decide for themselves if they are going to change for the betterment of themselves or not.

Any help will never be superfluous, especially if it is free. Perhaps the story of a former gaming addict can encourage people to start fighting their addiction. After all, it is always better to gain experience from other people's mistakes than from your own.

In short, they can't accept that they aren't addicted already into gambling but it is very obvious that they already are.

Some of the people who want to help the gambler to recover from gambling addiction are forced to do bad things like using brute force just to carry the gambler and give some advice etc etc. Most of the gamblers don't even realize that they are addicted already. I have experienced getting addicted into something already but not gambling but in playing online games. I spend most of my time playing and my sleeping hours is heavily affected too. Fortunately, I've managed to recover from it and now playing at a specific time.

For those gamblers, seeking help from different experts is the best thing to do if you really want to recover from gambling addiction.

Becoming a responsible gambler is really difficult to achieve but experiencing sh*t many times while doing gambling is the best experience and foundation for that to happen.

Cannot agree more with this! Usually time will tell if your gonna change for good or not, and it depends on how harsh your experiences are before becoming a responsible gambler.
