I saw a post about someone returning to gambling after quitting for some time, maybe a year or more. But my concern is not more on the return to gambling, rather it is on the very question I am about to ask that requires your opinions if really we want to solve the problem of gambling and addiction into it
What could be the reason for his return and what can be done to manage such situation?
Returning to gambling isn't the main problem, but returning with the same mentality as before.
Most of us quit gambling when we got addicted, but the abstinence moments allowed us to heal, have a new orientation and replaced the addiction with a new activity and finally returned a more disciplined gambler.
If the gambler has solved the reason he left and is prepared to gamble responsibly, then he's fine.
Often times we return to gambling when we get bored of refraining from it or becoming interested again from association with gambler peers
