The suffering of gamblers' relatives is a difficult topic that often goes unnoticed. Relatives often experience anxiety, fear and disappointment when they see their loved ones getting lost in the world of excitement.
However, the family plays a key role in supporting the addicted gambler. It is important to listen and understand the causes of his problem, discuss possible steps to recovery and provide emotional support. Specialist help, family therapy, and support for social groups can also be helpful. It is important to remember that family support and understanding can be the basis for successfully overcoming gambling addiction.
