The only solution for gambling addicts is to seek medical treatment, the rest of the measures are just things that will not work if the person does not seek medical treatment. I read posts from people on this forum blaming the casino for sending him an email when he was addicted and had deleted his account, I even understood and gave the person reason, but the casino is also not to blame for the person to have played again. That's why I think the only solution is for the person to see a doctor and get treated
What happens is that no one knows what they are getting into when they become addicted to something, they believe they can at some point overcome their addiction and then go back to their previous life as if nothing ever happened, but things are never that simple, after a successful recovery the addicted will have to struggle for the rest of their life to never fall into temptation and become addicted again, this is a daily struggle as temptation is everywhere and unless they can keep such determination at some point they will be tempted and fall into addiction once again.
