You want to get cured of compulsive gambling because you are too deep into it and you are under professional supervision to cure your addiction, your physician asks you to undergo hypnosis to cure your deep-rooted addiction, will you allow it
If the physician already recommend to undergo this procedure then it might be necessary and can be a big help to cure the addiction. However, we know it's not going to be cheap, seeking for professional help to get rid your addiction is expensive already so this additional process is another pain if you're not prepared financially.

Anyway, to answer the question, I believe if you want to overcome your addiction, you really need to help yourself to change what you used to aside from the guidance of a professional people. That being said, if you're willing to change and determine to get rid your addiction then a support of your loved ones plus your willingness would be a great help to overcome the problem that you've been going through.

If I am at the highest of my severity in gambling and there's no other option to help me then that's it, I'll take that willingly. It's like that there's no other option and it's the only thing that can ever cure someone if no one is helping me at my state. Since these are professionals, I'll go with their method and if things will work for me then that's nice. But if not, then that's the time that I'll stop the hypnosis and will have to go by myself for whatever other process that may come to help me.

Hypnosis can be a powerful tool to treat gambling addiction because it can help people deal with the things they don’t want to deal with, and it can give them better and more productive ways to deal with those things other than gambling.

There may be an improvement if this kind of treatment method is applied for those already addicted in gambling and we have to consider it a chance of 50/50 also consider this kind of therapy to be an expensive one to take and not every gambler can afford payment for such, gambling addiction is just what an individual can also handle by themselves as long as they can maintained a disciplined life and do away with every other things that aid to gambling, which part of the solution is to distant yourself away from having any means of access to gambling.

I'm curious whether there has been a study stating that Hypnosis can cure gambling addiction, I am a little sceptical about this because if this does work it would be the one being used to treat gambling addiction and other mental illnesses but from what I remember reading in the past CBT(Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) is usually the one being used to treat mental illnesses.

This is pretty weird, but I have no background in psychology or hypnosis, but this is some sort of good thing to try if you are addicted to gambling because others said that it is just all about your mind and if you are able to control it, then I think it is possible, but this is not known right now because mostly those addicted to gambling are going to rehab or counseling, which for sure some people wouldn't try or others would try.

When being in professional treatment for a gambling addiction I wouldn't expect hypnosis to be part of it. We all know the videos where people got hypnotized and believes they were animals, but to me this was always fake and a form of entertainment. I just can't believe that our own personality can be hidden so easily. Also only seeing it on TV and not in reality makes a big difference. Maybe when I would see it happen to a friend or family member I would start believing it. The problem for any addiction treatment is that we need to believe in the process. When we are sceptical and don't trust it's not going to work. So there might be some people for which this would be a good treatment, but I think for the majority it's not going to work.

Isn't this too much if we are entering such a superstitious thing rather than go with a normal rehabilitation and be cured without hypnosis?
There's lot of ways and it can be done in home or in a facility which specialized in this type of case. Gambling addiction is not like a cancer that will stick to your bones or your blood, it's all just mental. It means we could find a breakthrough to take it out of our system just by being occupied with something else without gambling in our habitual daily life.
IMO, we could go with different recreations, or a vacation might also help just to get it out of our system and see if we will still go back or not.

If your gambling addiction is at that level where you need to get it cured by someone who does Hypnosis, you are already fked. And I am sure, you are already without any money left with you.

So true! Smiley


If you still have money by any chance, give it to your parents or invest it in some property or something. Do not gamble. It's not good for your physical and mental health at all.

Good advice.

If gambling starts to "be a problem" first admit to yourself that you have a problem and be honest with your loved ones. If someone does not sincerely want to change, "doctors and medicines" can't help.

Doing that is not the case, the real case here is if you won’t go back to gambling after being hypnotized for a certain period of time

Now, aside people (probably family and friends) trying to help you out of that addiction, do you personally also want to come out of it?

If yes, all that professional supervision may not even be necessary, you can work your way out of it without being hypnotized

If it has entered the addiction stage, maybe I will try to use hypnosis techniques to be able to cure my addiction to gambling, because according to some studies hypnosis can help someone get out of addiction. Moreover, hypnosis is actually not as bad as you think, it doesn't make you do anything you don't want, you still have the will to be able to determine what you want to do, the point is that you want to change, that's the most important thing, because if you don't have the will to change from oneself, even hypnosis is useless.

Consider the possible side effects of this technique before you agree to it, some of the side effects are;

Dizziness, Headache, Nausea, Drowsiness, Anxiety or distress, Sleep problems.

The side effects are not very terrible if you ask me, and they can be controlled. So I can opt for hypnotherapy if recommended as a solution if I have a serious gambling problem.

Hypnotherapy will not be my only option, but will become an option if other attempts for me to stop gambling has failed.

Problem gambling has had a terrible effect on the life of some people and they know, but they have just been unable to control themselves, any solution to their problem, something that can get them to stop the habit will be an acceptable option.

This may seem funny, but why does hypnosis, done by a therapist to cure a person struggling with compulsive gambling, sound like exorcism done by a priest to cast out the demon of compulsive gambling that has possessed the individual? Anyways, no way am I letting anyone do this to me. I have always believed that man is the master of his own fate. The day a compulsive gambler decides to take responsibility and put his/her life in order is the day the hold of gambling over him begins to decline. No therapy, drug, or whatever is needed. Just the individual and their resolute decision.

if by means of hypnosis my addiction can be cured, why not? I will definitely answer yes.
but in this case I am not an addict anymore because at first I was a gambling addict and recovered in my own way in a little bit of time and if using this hypnotic method is one of the most effective drugs for treating gambling addicts, of course they will be willing and on the other hand they have Recommended by professionals.
but the other question is whether it is safe to do the hypnosis? Of course it will be safe because what I know is that hypnosis is just relaxing, forgetting something bad like thinking about gambling every day and letting go of that thought forever and I think that in this stage there should usually be other support from several factors such as family.
because if an addict is successfully cured with a hypnotic method the family must also keep the person from being close to things related to gambling.

It is still being debated whether therapy to cure addiction through the hypnotic method can have a good effect, because many of these therapies don't work well even though some have been successful, one that I know in my country was when a very famous person used this method to lost weight and it was quite successful because finally, she was able to get the ideal body, but no matter how good the method is if we don't try it will never work to help us get out of addiction.
Another obstacle to applying this method to cure addiction is that there are religions that think this is not a good thing, and if I had to choose I would not choose this because not getting addicted would be better than having to go through treatment because of addiction because a method only it will give a good thing if the patient is willing to follow every instruction but being uncooperative will not have any impact.

I am not in that situation because gambling is not a problem for me. However, if I had a particularly serious gambling problem I suppose I would do whatever I could to solve it, including hypnosis. I've heard of people quitting smoking with that, but I don't know how it works, but yes, I would try it, especially if a professinal would recommend it to me.

I wouldn't say no, but it would be my last resort in dealing with my addiction because there are other solutions available, and it's better to try them first than to head straight away with hypnosis. If other gamblers successfully cured their gambling addiction with that solution, then it's worth a try later on because we don't have many solutions to deal with gambling addiction. And maybe that one solution we haven't tried could be the most effective.


Its kind of drastic for me to go hypnosis for a treatment in a problem that can be solved without it. It only needs putting more attention to something else besides gambling to stop it.

But its often a preference of a person involved. If they want it then its their way. Theres got to be someone out there who had tried this since there are articles about it which says it takes 3-4 session for the Cognitive behavioral theraphy (CBT). Doesn't sound so bad.

Do actual physicians resort to hypnosis to cure people? I thought it was always scientific-based unless hypnosis has a background already on the scientific community. I wasn't aware that it was being done already. Maybe hypnosis can be done to those who are ill and need help as well.

I would undergo hypnosis for gambling if I didn't control it anymore.

No, because I don't believe in that thing called hypnosis but not sure it's exist or not while myself don't believe in that thing we can understand things better when we are unconscious/sleep state.

I would prefer the rehab which is the actual treatment can be effective on someone who is addicted to anything still the catch is there which is the person himself has to realise letting it go should be good for them or else even after rehabilitation the can go to the state where they are before.
Some said its true and some said its not and here's some vid about hypnosis.

On my own personal opinion on which i dont really believe much that it could really help out that cures gambling addiction.
It is really something a problem which you are the only ones who could resolve it and no other than.

Curing gambling would be starting on yourself because if you are really not serious on quitting gambling then you would really be addicted and you would
only be stopping when you dont have anymore money on your pocket to play on. This is the sad reality.
So basically the snap is just to induce what our mind is already believing so it's not really doing anything as per the video which you linked but it can't really help to cure an addiction correct me if I am wrong.

Some people even go beyond that nothing, that is falling into the debt to satisfy their gambling urge which is quite dangerous and can get their life to an end at some point that's why we should never be so obsessed with anything just use it for what it's actually meant to be so here we are talking gambling so it's just mostly for an entertainment and anything beyond can become dangerous.

I don't take loans, ask for sig if I ever do.
If I was addicted, then maybe. Just that I doubt the efficiency of "hypnosis" in actually treating it. Also doesn't help how I've never seen hypnosis being used as a treatment, or how it works even. This is me thinking rationally though, and I dont think you'd consider addicts as rational beings, otherwise addiction would've never gotten the best of them.

I'd probably just outright deny I was addicted. Or even if I did admit it, I'd choose alternatives first since hypnosis seems like it'd make me forget about gambling altogether,  unlike fixing the core problem instead which would still let me gamble, albeit more lightly.
