but this process has been recognized as a serious disease - gambling addiction. It is quite difficult to recover. It's a bit like drug addiction.
Yes, that's what happens in many cases of young people or even old people who are addicted to gambling. What can be reduced is the intensity of gambling, to reduce gambling activity gradually. it is very difficult to ask a gambling addict to stop. What is done is a process of understanding to be able to better control the gambling that is carried out. and the process will of course not happen simply or even in a short time.
but in some cases, it depends on the gambler himself. because of course, there must be a willingness to reduce their activities. whether it's due to worsening finances or coercion from people around you.
Gambling addiction can still be handled gradually if they are able to stop themselves from frequently engaging in gambling activities, they must have a strong determination to stop, especially for husbands and wives who are addicted to gambling. They must be able to stop for a better survival it is not easy but If husband and wife are able to support each other to stop together then the process will not last long because usually family factors are very important for the gambler himself.
For other people, addiction may be something that is difficult to cure, but this depends on the gambler himself, if they don't have the intention and determination then it will be something that is very difficult to cure as long as they have a supportive family gambling addiction will get faster to handle.
Family-based gambling addiction treatment is unique. Mutual determination between husband and wife can change lives. Addiction is sometimes an indication of deeper difficulties. Sustainable recovery requires addressing these issues. Therapy can reveal and treat these difficulties, facilitating rehabilitation. Society needs to evolve its view of gambling addiction. Not merely a "bad habit", its mental illness. Awareness and stigma reduction can increase help-seeking. Gambling industry regulations like responsible gambling can also prevent.
Family support is crucial, but its only part of the rehabilitation ecology. Personal drive, professional assistance, and social support are needed. Together, these factors can make addiction recovery attainable
Aside from all that you have said, I did like to state and make it categorically clear that, the idea of a husband and his wife both being addicted to gambling is nothing but a pure assumption, or should I call it speculation or a wishful thinking.
In a real sense, it's pretty difficult, more like impossible for a man and the woman of the house to both fall into gambling addiction, this is nothing but pure speculation, for those who are not married, family life is full of expenses, most especially when children are already a part of the family, I personally believe that, it's practically impossible for a man and a woman to become addicted to gambling while being married to themselves, this ever happening will be the height of stupidity if you ask me.
The truth of the matter is that, bills that comes with being a family Persons, won't even allow the husband and the wife to gamble enough to the extent of getting addicted to it.
