Actually there are many online doctors and psychologists now that offers their services free to comfort and answer peoples concern specially this pandemic when people needs mental help as less of us can stay this long inside houses doing nothing.

Online doctors and psychologists won't help them who are addicted because they don't meet the addicted people face to face. They can only give advice to people who addicted from far away, but if they can meet directly, I think they can consult about the problem and figure out how to solve the addicting. When it comes to mental, I think the meet will be necessary so the doctors and psychologists can find the solution.

If we ask doctors and psychologists online then I don't think that is the best way except for complaints that you feel may be able to get consultations with doctors online, but for addictions I think it is also difficult to do this because it has to be done in a way that psychologists might know better how to stop gambling addiction in a short time.

Well, there's nothing online doctors can do when it comes to gambling addiction, gambling addiction is a sort of mental illness that it takes time to cure by putting in the rehabilitation center. Psychotherapy is more effective when in actual not in online consultation online, although this can't directly cure gambling addicts but, --they can often significantly improve symptoms. Indeed, it needs a treatment team just like your family or loved one sympathy. That is the reason why don't be a gambling addict, it is totally ruining your life.

In the first place, there is no way an addicted gambler will reach an expert about how to deal with their behavior.

The other way around might happen, these gamblers might avoid any advice at all cost since they just want to continue, no matter what happens.

The good side is, an addicted gambler might able to wake up in the middle of their shitty behavior. That's the time they now able to consider asking for help as soon as possible now that they were able to regain control of themselves.

Closing doors about the situation is not really accurate since there are addicted gambler's been helped by other parties and good thing their are service like this will help for those people who got hit by bad habits. And I will agree with you since its nice to see this existing many people will be helped if they will go to any of this, dependent persons have downturns so everything could change by the help of everyone.

I'm glad you noticed that. Now people are sitting at home and they have a lot of time to gamble online.
It is at this time that we can't refuse to help anyone and I am sure a lot of people would voluntarily and free of charge provide psychological assistance to dependent players.

It is very good that in difficult times for everyone there are people who are ready to help others for free. With the advent of the virus and the beginning of quarantine, a lot of people began to help each other for free and this gives hope for a good future for humanity.

Indeed,gambling online is so much different than gambling in real casino...For myself,even margin trading is some kind of gambling,because whales manipulate price to liquidate both shorters and longers.

People can get a suggestion from the doctors and psychologist online, but it feels different than if we meet them face to face. That people need to go to that therapist so they can know how to cure themselves. Besides that, they will get the right medicine from the psychologist because I think the level of the addiction itself will be different than other people.

Physical appointment I think is always better than online consultation.
There are some behaviour that a psychologist can see during those physical consultations that online can't see.
But for the time being, one can start having online consultation if he really wants to change.
And when the time permits, you can physically visit your doctors because they will understand more of your situation and so they can help according to your needs.

Depends on the approach yet even on online consultation then it wont really be that different as long the interaction between the two would be clear because it would really be just the same in terms of questions asked or some sort.

For now we know that we are still on quarantine then we would really look up for online consulatations.We do seek out for professional help if we do see that we arent able to solve this problem by ourselves or you have tried hard already but everything turns out to be non effective.

Self discipline/Willingness to quit -> Help of Loved ones/relatives ->  Seek professional help. These are the things should be done in order.

In my opinion, this is better than no one to talk to. the best thing in this world is when you lose everything you have or let's say you didn't get the thing you ask for you will feel distressed and lose some confidence and the first thing you need to have is someone to talk that can understand your situation. I'm really glad that we have someone like this that we can ask for instruction and advise us on what to do in the time of calamity and distress.

Yup, as long as the gambling addict didn't accept that he is indeed an addict, there's no way that he'll try the online consultation. Online can help those who are really willing to be cured, but not those who are just doing it just because someone told them too(a family member or a friend). I also agree with what the others said, physical consultation is always better because you can interact with the professional more openly. The vibe and presence will always be different physically, and it will affect how the process of your rehabilitation will take.

This is the time where one should be trying to get rid of any addiction as this can make them break free and live the life in a different way after post Corona. This help us to look within and change our self for better and also for the rest of the loved ones. I hope people who are motivating others in their hard mission of getting rid of this addiction becomes successful so that they can enjoy their life as well other than addiction which can impact the life to great extent.

whats the difference with this period from the other ? people now are facing crisis and this is more important than the gambling addiction so people will try to solve this first  . after this period , that would be the time to seek for help but i see alot of arguements above saying addicted gamblers wont seek help  .

 if not them selves then we that arent addictive will look for them and see if they are really addicted or not , then we are the ones that will aid them .

That is why if the addicted person can meet personally with the psychologist, it will give a chance for the psychologist to analyze what is happening to that person. The psychologist can also provide the right medicine or treatment to that person so he will have a chance to cure his addiction. I think that is the only way for the addicted person to be helped by the psychologist, and I think they will be able to find the problem deeper than online.

Talk to other people can be another solution because he can share his problem, especially his addiction to gambling, so maybe that person can give a solution on how to solve the problem. Usually, we can talk to someone that close to us so we can free to talk about our problem, and the important is we can trust that person to help us.

It is great that there are professionals who can provide free assistance to those in need. However, I always tell my family and children that in case of problems, if you need to talk to someone, I am always there for you.

The strength of the family, support and mutual assistance should be consider in any situation.

True, I hope there's an international platform not only applicable on one country. It would be non-sense if you tried to contact them which is out of your country. Since gambling problems is a wide issue, it's better to contact your local doctors 'cause they already knew what's the best thing to do since they knew how the environment works in their own country.

Since @OP posted this on gambling discussion which is an international board, I guess indicating international websites like WHO or world health organization.

I agree with you, it would be a good idea, but I wasn't aware that the World Health Organization was providing pages concerning gambling addiction. Do you have some links please?

For those people who are facing issues with regards to gambling you may call and visit the websites, it would be really a great help to all of you, if you are all having trouble with your mind about gambling, you may call your doctors and other professionals, if you want to be cured of being compulsive gamble this would be a really good help to you.

It was totally great that there is certain groups or organizations that are available to provide online consultations even at this pandemic because admit it or not, there are really people who were negatively affected by gambling due to unmanageable control of themselves while playing gambling specially at this pandemic that we tend to stay home and we can still access to play gambling through online.

This is really a great help for people experiencing the negative effect of playing gambling so that they have someone to reach out and talk about their experience and help them out to manage their playing and lessen the negative effects of playing gambling on their daily life basis. But help would just come if you also would be really care of helping yourself first to reach out contacting the information stated by the OP to help you out conquering the negativities of playing gambling.
