My story is kinda similar, except I didn't make "huge" losses and no professional helped me, it was me teaching myself. But yeah, if one wanna publish the story which surely includes me being insulted for gambling away friends and families money, being into debts etc, I am fully to it. Gambling is a lie and a mistake, not a immoral crime that I should be scared to expose

If you have already shared with your loved ones this story then it is not that difficult to share with publisher and let the world know about your journey and how you overcame it and might be many would be inspired with it .

This is indeed a great story to tell to someone even though you only bet/lose small amount and yet you are out of control to stop. Controlling yourself alone is already a big factor that you are a very strong person. Of course, it would take a lot of pain and punishment before you do realize that you are in shithole.

It serves inspiration as well to those who've been doing this before. Changing their mindset is a big challenge and it takes time to develop as well. The reality that some experts can be a kind of chronic gambler before but they actually change because they want to and they are working it hard. Quitting is not a solution to correct mistakes but rather to open up in the public and we can hear good advice to help.

I think quitting is already a solution because this is the very first step that you have to take if you want to quit for being a chronic gambler. And you can then start to open it up to the public, don't just open it up to the public if you aren't chronic gambler because you may look like a pathetic dude who's trying to get some sympathy.

I am sorry to be a selfish person here, but I think that for me to share that kind of story, it would be because I am motivated by the money and not because I want it to help someone out there alone and please don’t get me wrong, I have human sympathy and I would never do anything that will affect my fellow human being, but in this 21 century generations, we have too many stubborn people that don’t pay listening hear to some of these things and even if the read the book from now till 100 years, it would still not help them or stop them from being a chronic gambler until they have their own share of the experience too or they probably just go for rehabilitation which is to be decided totally by them at their own free time.

~It's not about earning money but rather about helping others to not make the same mistakes you did in the past. If you are well known public figure, your name and your photo on the book cover would help to get a wider audience for the book. Otherwise there's no need for disclosing your identity, unless you yourself want the fame.

I appreciate trying to help others to overcome their addiction in gambling, and I can see addicted gamblers laughing at you when you are telling your stories in TV or any social media platform, if this is going to happen in the future, I'm just being honest and more realistic here.

My point here is that you can't help other people who don't help themselves as well, it depends on them if they are going to quit gambling or not.

I agree, the willingness of a chronic gambler to fight the addiction is of major importance, and without it no advices can help. But if the willingness is there, some advices from experienced gamblers, especially from those who have succeeded in fighting the addiction, can help a lot. Of course it shouldn't be something like "Stop gambling completely", "Stay away from all gambling sites" etc. Those kinds of advices never help.

You are once a chronic gambler but with the help of a professional you are now totally cured, then a publisher offers you to publicize your journey from being a chronic gambler to a cured one, but of course, everything could be exposed like your habit experiences, your agony and even your personal life, will you agree to do this, of course the publisher will pay you for the story that you are going to provide.

Of course yes I will agree with these because I also like to share my experiences and journey from being a chronic gambler into a normal people. This could help other people to be better and change from being a chronic gambler into a just normal people, for those people who will read my story and journey they will think another way on how they will start to move on and maybe I can help them by encouraging based on my experience in life. This will be a win win situation on me because the story that I will share will help them to move on as well I can get income from it.

Sharing your personal experienced and allow people to learn from your past mistakes in life can be an eye opener, it's a good thing to bring your
story to people who are experiencing the same problem. The person who help you out to bring back the realities in life can reach more people,
those who are in need of help will be inspired with your story and who knows what will be the affections in their lives after knowing the right
way to overcome this problem.

for me theres nothing wrong publicizing my Former mistakes,since i have already accepted that once my life ruins because of greed?of course i will be proud to be one as a example of there is a life after failure in gambling.because gambling addiction is a serious case and these days its getting worst than before,there are more suicide cases that causes of gambling and some are more brutal,here in my country there are tons of cases of kidnapping and ransom because of gamblers cant pay the loan they get just fr gambling.

This is not a problem for me for as long as I am truly clean and not just hiding my previous gambling habit. This is really something that I should be proud of. Not everyone who has chronic gambling habits are able to overcome them. There are even others who realized them only after damages have already been done and could not be overcome anymore. If my successful experience of getting over my gambling habit will somehow enlighten others who are still under its shadows then I will allow my story to get published.

There is no reason for me to reject that offer IMO. I don't think it's a shame to share your stories that challenges your practically then after that you were able to get rid of that difficult situation. It's indeed helpful for other people specially those gamblers are always gamble with their emotion. It can influence them in a positive way as it may give hope to those addicted in gambling.

Well, I was hoping that all of the people could digest positively If this kind of scenario will be documented and be available for public viewing. Sad truth is, not all of the people will, not all of the people knows how to walk in other's shoe, unless that situation will personally happens to them. I've seen a lot of addicted gamblers ignoring the reality, spending like there's no tomorrow.
If I am to be ask with the OP's question, I'd definitely say yes as long as they pay the right price for invading my privacy. Money matters practically, helping addicted gamblers will be the 2nd purpose.

I think it is not really a bad idea to share your journey in gambling most especially if theres something in that journey that can probably enlighten or help those gamblers having difficulties battling with addiction. We are not perfect people thus, we make mistakes but the most important things is the learnings that we’re able to get from tat mistake or journey. I don’t gamble much and haven’t helped anyone but gambling stories of others helped me in making sure i’m in control with gambling.

I guess yes! People learn from mistakes more than therapy. If an addict talks with a former addict, they will learn more and will become less addict than just going to therapists and those who will just say to him "hey, don't gamble, it's baaaad". Experience is indeed the best teacher of life buddy.

Most of the time where experience is the best teacher but it isn't really necessary for you to wait up for that scenario before you would able to learn.
You can avoid mistakes or not good scenarios with your life even just applying others experiences.Yet you've known that they do already put up into
that situation then you can always mirror out those things that it would surely happen into you if you don't stop on addiction with gambling.

Certainly agree, who does not want to share an extraordinary experience with everyone, even though it was not an exciting experience, but at least we also play an active role in reducing chronic gamblers. Surely will be happy when our stories are heard by many people, especially when they respond to our stories well.

Quote from: adzino on November 16, 2019, 11:46:12 AM

Well, you can always use pseudo names and remain pseudonymous right? As far as I know, every such stories that are told, real names are never revealed. Even their locations and all private information are altered and some fillers are added so that no one can know who they are. I would agree if they allow me to remain pseudonymous. After all, you can make something out of your story Wink

.

People feel more comfortable telling these stories remaining anonymous some way. They do this to hide their true identity. However, I do not think that this is the sole reason to do so. After all, why would care about someone’s opinion who lives far from us. People come up with such names just to sound cool and get attention. The only thing that matters is the blunders they made and how should other gamblers avoid them.

Yeah right, just because the stories we share are from bad experiences doesn't mean we have to be anonymous. We are also like those successful entrepreneurs who share their experiences with many people, it's just that the peak of our success is different, we are successful apart from chronic gamblers and that is one of the extraordinary things.

If someone willing to pay few thousand dollars then most people will have no problem with it. Cheesy

Yes it could damage our personal image but our story can inspire lot of other addicted gamblers so they are going to get better life from your experience.So just accept the offer it is good,don't just go for few hundreds,I don't think its worth.

If someone really is willing to pay money just to have a person who is willing to publicize his/her journey from being chronic gambler then that person won't have such problem finding someone that is a chronic gambler before since he/she can earn money from it. It is also much better that the person who is willing to publicize his/her will be anonymous like their personal name and other information except his/her identity in social media or other platform because some may prefer being anonymous and some don't.

In my own opinion in that situation, i would kindly accept the publisher offers to publicize my experiences being a chronic gambler because they could learn a lot of things from me, so they could not experienced my bad experiences about gambling. I also think i will not be embarrassed from that because i could be a good example for children who are curious about gambling.

We all have a story to tell, whether good or bad, and some of our experiences in life could be a savior to some people if told publicly, so sure, why would I not share my story to help someone comes out of that addicted gambling except maybe in my story, some of them could implicate me to go to jail, which I know that we are too wise as humans not to find a way around it and still share pour story without mentioning that particular one even if I dint have to be paid for it.

Now that it involves money, which will be the one that would even motivate me the most to quickly go tell my story to the world. I get to earn some money from that and at the same time I get to teach some people some experiences of life which is meant to be the best teacher for all.
