Hi Everyone!
I wanted to share a project that I've been part of. 5 years ago, I changed course from being a casino affiliate to working with problem gambling. It's been a project full of challenges, happiness, tears, and fighting. I wanted to do something different, and I saw how many people struggle.

QuitGamble.com

The website is available in English, Spanish, Swedish, and soon French and Portuguese.



Thank you for sharing this with us, but why now only, you mentioned that you were part of this 5 years ago, but it's still good that you've found the time to share this, the courses and all the information are free because they rely on donations and one of their donators happens to be Great.com an affiliate company which donates €25,000.

Gambling addiction has been one of the main problems and issues in countries where online casinos are accessible and the site is such a big help for those who are struggling to cope with addiction, it's good that they've got sponsors so they can offer all materials free and for maintenance of the platform, I hope they will find more sponsors so they can continue helping more gamblers who have issues with addiction.

This site is good for gamblers who want to quit gamble for free, like a guide on how to combat their addiction.
I don't know the catch but the it seems their goal is to really help those gamblers who are having trouble with their gambling habits.
I remember, there's one thread here asking how to avoid addiction where you don't need to spend money or at least the cheaper alternatives.
Maybe some users can find this site useful or remind them on how to fall from the trap of gambling addiction.

I’m not sure about this but probably the catch is the potential donation for those who will be helped by this service or some purchasable materials that gives more detailed approach to solving the addiction problem.

This is fair imho since their website contains a lot of helpful tools for gambling addict. I hope that I will NOT use this someday but it’s really nice to have this kind of service available on gambling board of the forum since I’m almost become like this on my previous gambling activity.  Cheesy

*bookmarked the website already! Thanks OP.

At least you came so real trying to solve a problem that's not solvable, not like other platforms that claim that everything that has to do with gambling is bad and as such people should stay away from it.
Did you see the URL? QuitGamble.com Which means you should quit gambling.

I have not checked your site yet, but I will do so one of these days to see the details myself, so I can recommend it to anyone who needs to get off the addiction page.
You have not checked the site and you make conclusion. I only read the introductory path which has no complete information and I may not be exactly be correct either. The introductory path does not talk about quitting though.

People that want people to quit addiction want addicted people to stop doing that thing that makes them addicted, like to stop smoking or gambling. It is better to stop than to continue to be addicted.

I have not gone through the entire site details, but I made a quick preview of how to stop gambling addiction from the link provided in the OP.

Too much of everything is bad, but being in control of whatever you are doing keeps you on the right track, and no one will criticise you for that. Unless those who have already made up their minds see such activity as bad, there is no point in stopping gambling.
 
If you can learn how to come out of the addiction page, then there is no problem with continuing to gamble. That's only if you are sure you can't go back there. The main reason why people are advised to leave whatever they get addicted to entirely is because there is no guarantee that, at the end of the day, they won't get addicted again.

Everything on QuitGamble.com is built from a problem gambler's perspective. We don't talk about responsible gambling, which many other organizations who claim to work with problem gambling do. For us, there is no such thing as RG for someone with gambling problems. (Who would write about responsible drinking on a page for alcoholics?)

In everything that has an advantage, there is always a disadvantage. One can always choose to be on the positive side and continue to gamble responsibly, which will also contribute to his mental growth. Those who choose to turn their gambling life into a hobby instead of doing it for fun are chasing after big wins, which leads them right into getting addicted. Those kinds of people are the reason why most people see gambling as a bad influence.
