To do this, you need to have a strong connection with your family values and your family.
Often, people who are addicted, have these connections partially or completely destroyed, which does not allow them to use such a powerful resource for healing.

2. List all things that were affected by gambling - if you can see all the things that were affected because of gambling then you may realize that it has no goods to give you, then I hope that it makes you think to stop gambling.

Nice thread mate, compulsive gamblers should read this one, there are so many addict gamblers both online gambling and real life gambling. Real lifw gambling is more familiar compared to online gambling because as far as I remember, one of my friend told me that real life gambling is much better compared to online gambling because of several reasons.

The number one ways to recover from gambling is the best way for me, our family is our strenght and power, if we have strong relationship with our family then for sure they will not let you to become addict on gambling. You wouls not think to waste your time in gambling because it is really better to spend your time with your family.

Our family can do much to help us avoid gambling addiction, as I have proven that once I was addicted to gambling. We always listen to their advice to us because it will benefit us especially if we already have our own families. It will serve as a lesson or a way to keep ourselves from gambling and to focus more on our family and our time. We need it for us to have control over gambling and to have limitation for it.

Not all addicts have families. Many families turned away from them and do not want to see them.
Therefore, it is extremely important to find like-minded people who replace you with the warmth and love of the family.
It would be best if they were people with similar problems who were able to get through them and cope with them.
In this case, such a community will have something to lose, which means together they will support each other.

1. Focus on your family or friends - if you have strong relationship with your family and friends then you will forget to play gambling, and they may help you to limit yourself from gambling.

I think the solution to addiction is to isolate the addict in some home for addicts where there are specialist doctors on the subject. The addict needs to spend some time with other people who are addicted and talk to these people and medical experts on the subject. just like that it is possible to make a good treatment to leave the addiction. I know that a lot of people here talked about family and friends, but is it really that they already had an addict at home? as much as it hurts to say it, the best help that family and friends can do Is have the courage to put the addict in some rehab home for addicts

But we need to have a control! Without control chances to become an addict are higher. Having control doesn't mean that you gamble
just couple hours weekly, it means you have a control over your wallet and your needs, you know how much you have and how many you
can spend for specific need. When you have a control you will not allow yourself to get into a problem, you will prevent that in the beginning.

But it seems we need an amount of money to get this book. 46,00 € for eBook and 57,19 € for softcover.

Looks convincing to read by all gamblers, not only addicted ones. But it seems we need an amount of money to get this book. 46,00 € for eBook and 57,19 € for softcover. However, it is always worthed as knowledge is something priceless.

Sure. For severe cases of gambling addiction, they need experts or professional help. There are some special treatments to be done and common people won't understand about it. The chance to recover isn't the same as a mild addiction, so it needs different ways and more serious treatments.

I just found a very good book, skimmed the book and I'm surprised how deep the problems are for the addict.

I think this book will be my current reading material. I'd suggest those who are gambling addict to seek for professional help, and not just follow the common sense methods.

One thing that I remember is "I can control the urge thus no problem" mentality should be changed to "it may already destroy me without me noticing" mentality.

I'll tell more when I finish this book.
