Gambling brings so much joy especially when you're on the winning side, when things are all in your favor it just seems like you should never stop. But when it gets bad, you look for a way to pour out your anger, either on someone or on something.
When someone is addicted to gambling I feel it's worst than one who's addicted to drugs.
So much has been said about betting companies regarding how they should be responsible in helping those who are addicted to gambling, although is really hard to do so on there own path because gamblers can't be monitored.
I don't know if booking an appointment with a therapist would help or is something you as a gambler who wants out should do on your own.
The question is if you're a gambler or have someone who is, what's the best way to help out. And what's your story on escaping that addiction (gambling)...
How do you fight this battle?
On how to help other people who are addicts to gambling is hard because some of them might not know that they are addicted to it and will not accept whatever you tell them or they might stay far from you. One needs self-control in life especially in gambling so that you don't get carried away by your emotion of chasing your loss. It is better that you set aside a gamble budget when you get paid so that you can only use that to gamble. Also set time limit for your gambling activities,this will enable you to know when to stop gambling. Then finally,if you find out that you gambling has eaten you to you bone,it is better that you go for a break till you can control yourself when gambling.
