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.
I will have to consult my family first before making a decision, of course, I want to have an approval on the storyline, I don't want to be pictured as a guy who is out of his mind, I just want someone to be portrayed as a guy who gets back on his feet with the help of his family.
Great, at least, you care with your family because once your story is going to be publicized, people will know who you are, but maybe you can ask that media to hide your real identity. With doing that, I guess that you still have your lives with your family, and they will not get disturbed by the other media news. They can do their usual activity without having a problem because you don't tell all of your lives to the media.
