I suggest that if you feel that you are like that, you may visit some professionals to help you

And how's that supposed to work in practice?

As you say yourself, "compulsive gambling is the uncontrollable eagerness on gambling" (personally, I would say urge or obsession, but it doesn't really matter). If you don't listen to your family and your friends anymore, if you don't care about anyone, what on earth is going to make you listen to some advice here (or elsewhere in the Internet, for that matter)? Just curious

Yeah it is going to work. If you are reading this post and looking for help, then it means that you have realized that gambling is badly affecting your life. This "realization" is your first step to recovery. Because you are willing to quit, you will be looking for help. This means that you will try your best to follow the advises given by the professional. Just because you think you won't listen to them, does not mean that you won't seek help from them. You never know, those professionals might end up helping you getting rid of your addiction.

I agree, the only one who can help you is yourself, anyone can give you advice how to overcome addiction but no one can heal you from it but only yourself. If your willing to change then stop to those thing that put you in to mess situation and after that you will realize the big mess happen to your life because of it. For me its better to completely stay away from it, if you know yourself you will possible to be returned to former status for being mess again.
