I see your point and it's true if there's love behind things that your love ones are doing for you, if you are the person who have this problem with gambling addiction, chances that you will see the purest of intention and the help that wanted to conduct, though it's really hard as most of those gamblers who still have money or resources to use are still in the denial stage of addiction,.
They are the one who's really challenging to provide the help or to accept the help that we are trying to give, without realization and self-will. It will take time before you will be able to convince the person.
This is what can encourage gambling addicts to try to change their bad habits. And the presence of the people he loves will strengthen him so that he goes through the entire process of healing his gambling addiction. These are the people who can recover from their gambling addiction because they do not feel alone in undergoing the process of healing their gambling addiction.
And those who continue to accompany him during the healing process will see significant changes in the gambling addict. They will be very happy to see that what they do can provide satisfactory results for gambling addicts so that they will continue to provide support to these gambling addicts.

I think the help of their family and professional help are both needed to assist the addicted to overcome their problem, the family is needed to provide the moral support, as overcoming an addiction is very difficult to do and they may think about giving up during the middle of the process, and the family has to be there to reassure them and motivate them to keep going, but professional help is needed as well, since an addiction can be so out of hand that only someone that has been trained could possibly help the addicted to get over their compulsion to gamble.
The presence of a family with a gambling addict can help gambling addicts undergo the healing process, and that support is what gambling addicts need. That's the point of a family that can support each other and provide encouragement to those who need it to survive even though it feels difficult for them. Professional help is also needed to monitor the gambling addict's recovery process. Professionals who provide gambling addicts with a list of things to do and help them go through them. And with the help of his family, a gambling addict can complete every process given to him.
