Addiction could be a life devastating if you won't find a way to stay away from addiction, it surely ruins everything you have, not only if financial matter but might be possible with your relationship. a lot of couple have a break up because of this because once who hook up into addiction, you will forgot your responsibility as a man or as a father.

So true! there are many broken families because of this vice, addiction cause mental damage a person who have this case is no longer thinking the normal way.

If you already seen yourself keep following your instinct not missing any gambling events, and if inside your mind it's always strategy or a possible winning team that urging you to bet in.

That's a good sign that you need to stop or you need to ask help from your love ones, better to stop this before getting to deep and suffer
in the long run.

Good wives/husbands do not allow a family to break up because of any addictions of one family member. Such problems need to be solved together because a gambling addict is not able to cope alone. If the family is falling apart then it is likely that there are more serious problems within the family than gambling addiction.

I really welcome your statements. Yes, a guy who is addicted, can not be left unsupported. One can overcome from his or her addiction by the support of his family members. Yes, I was addicted to drinks and smokes but certainly i was not a chain smoker. However, my wife said, drink and smoke when I am at home but not anywhere else. This was really encouraging and yes I followed her instruction. She was besides me when i was drinking. But I started feeling that since i can drink and smoke in house, i skipped to go out for smokes and drinks. Then often i was reminded of drinks by my wife when i crossed wine shops. But i did not feel drinking. Yes this helped me leave these habits. This has been more than 5 months since i have taken my drinks.

Yes, family members can change anything upon one's will to do so.
