For me personally , it is our family that we need to ask for help and not just government body or anyone.
and also the addict must be willing to cooperate for a successful process. It depends on the severity of the addiction. During the early stage of addiction, the gambler may overcome it by spending time with his family, talking to them, doing activities with them, focusing on having fun with them, etc. But if the addiction is already at a certain stage in which simply actions like those cannot anymore distract him from gambling, professional help should already be sought. Severe gambling addicts might hardly cooperate because their drive to gamble is already beyond their control. So again there must already be professional interventions done. I strongly agree with this. I also want to mention that not all families are willing to help their love ones in their addiction, sometimes instead of helping them, they will just insult them and discourage them to be a better person, like saying that they have no more future etc... and other harsh words. That's why you'll notice that addicted gamblers or any addicted person chose to stay quiet rather than sharing his problem because he is afraid to be judge by his own family.

On the extent the problem can't be handled easily by the family it isn't bad to ask to the concerned authorities especially the experts regarding this issue. Sometimes the only hindrance really is if the problem gambler doesn't want to cooperate. Addiction on gambling cause many family destroyed so expect that family cannot solve this issues since even if how they show care to addicted person but if he insist to change his self well nothing will happen. And its really advisable to seek for help since this could really the best solution for people who's not in right situation, but if they insist to be help well a rehabilition might needed since I think this is the last option so that we can cure or make people away from temptation of gambling.

It's good if there are dedicated hotlines for gambling addictions on a country, though if there isn't one available, intervention from medical professionals such as psychiatrists would go a long way in helping people already addicted to gambling. Turning oneself in is difficult, especially if they are still in denial of their condition and are shrugging it off thinking that they are still 'normal' despite their obvious behavior of being hooked to a certain game. It's a case-by-case basis, so you can't really know for certain whether an individual is already deep into the addiction or not.

If an addicted gambler is in that situation, he will not tell his family about his addiction instead of keeping it for himself. He will bury his addiction inside himself without saying to other people because he thinks that is not useful. Maybe someday, he will get the right person who will know his gambling problem and help him solve his addiction. We hope that we will not like that family who will abandon our family members if they have a problem, especially gambling.

It made me realize that every now and then there is someone here sharing their addiction stories and it might help to have a particular thread for them to keep all the sources which could help them get their life straight again..
A person that already eaten by their eagerness to always do gambling, without worrying about everything, anything but just focus on what they want, will not read any thread or information about controlling gambling addiction. The only cure they can get is by, fighting it on their own by force or their own will or someone close to them will guide and help them. A reality that needed to overcome.

A person can independently get rid of (recover) from gambling addiction. One addiction can be driven out of your life with the help of another addiction. Why do people play? They lack arousal in everyday life. The body needs adrenaline. Therefore, in order to get rid of gambling addiction, you can do extreme sports (parachute jumping, fights without rules, rafting on rough rivers, etc.). You can start dating girls. Street dating is drive, excitement and adrenaline. If you have a new girlfriend in your bed every night, you will forget about gambling. Sex with a tanned beauty is much more interesting than roulette.

I doubt a pure gambling addict is reading here at Bitcointalk. They don't want this advice stuffs. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) But the topic is more helpful for people that want to help others to overcome their addiction. Since these gamblers will not read this kind of stuff, we, as a gambler that still in control will help those struggling ones. The goal is to minimize their gambling addiction, not to advise them to stop gambling right away as there's a process for it. It's hard for these gamblers to just stop completely as it needs time for them to adjust to a lifestyle that they never used to.

Should be the right or initial thing that you would mind off is about self-realization and if you do really mean on quitting gambling then you should do it and dont tend to get involved into more gambling activity further. Try to avoid all of the ways or things connected to it and you would slowly heal up on the process.Its up actually on someones self discipline and control because if you do really mean to quit then you can actually do it. Even though there are still instances that we cant really help out ourself too get away with addiction.

You can easily search on Google which places you can check out to seek help against gambling addiction and I did some search which is limited to my country and there is a lot of intervention groups that can help.

There is a scenario where gambling is illegal in your country and if you are suffering from gambling addiction then you can neither tell anyone nor you can visit a psychiatrist because you will behind the bars very quickly. Most of the gamblers are underage and students which makes it really challenging for them to inform their parents and some don't even realize they are suffering from such a problem. I relate gambling addiction very closely to drug addiction where you don't know what you are doing and the moment you realize it is either too late or you have done too much damage to ever recover. I am not saying one cannot recover but it depends on the individual, damage done and one's self-confidence to come out of it.

True that not all would really be having the access due to country locations and not all of the places which does have correspond professional help or services something like this which means not all would really be catered out with this kind of help.Therefore the best thing to be done is to help out yourself first before asking out some help in others like your loved one or any other services out there that do cater out gambling addiction.This is a kind of problem on where someone cant easily get rid off.

There are drug treatment clinics in my country and they can provide therapeutic assistance to a person suffering from gambling addiction.
Aren't they more like antidepressants or something of the sort? I'd honestly think that taking a walk, having some fresh air or having a vacation of sorts is a lot better than drugs. Idk, it just makes it feel more like, the one under medication is in need of a LOT of help instead of having that free mindset of calmness you get when having a breather. Like instead of letting go of what strangles you, it instead just lets you go for a moment before strangling back with stronger momentum/force. It depends, I really think those kind of medicines have their reason to be especially if they are used during the short term, the problem is that many doctors give those drugs to their patients for years and that is when it becomes a problem because we know of all the undesired effects drugs like that have on the body, that is why people need to learn to do the things you describe, however those drugs can be effective at the beginning of the treatment to treat gambling addiction as many gamblers that have indebted themselves to the point it is very difficult to pay their debts have suicidal thoughts.

It would always be best to seek medical attention from a trained professional first and foremost before you go around medicating yourself. Not only will you get better advices, you'd also be assisted in recoveringfrom the addiction you succumbed into. Furthermore, some anti-depression medications would require a doctor's recommendation before you can even buy them, so you would really need to consult a professional firs.t

Maybe before he can find medical attention from a trained professional, he can ask for help from people who closest to him to join with him to search for a psychologist. He can feel hard to find that professional and maybe he will not visit that professional. I am sure that he will have a chance to solve his addiction with help from the psychologist, especially if he follows every step from the doctor. It will have a big opportunity to cure his addiction if he gets support from the closest person because that is the important thing he can get from them.

What actually makes people addicted to things like games, sugar, drugs, etc is the fun/happiness they derive from them especially when they are sad. So, you need to make sure customers don't get addicted to your products/services by making them less flashy, less sweet, lessen the prize money (so they don't get attached to it) etc. The world is full of addicts who are addicted to movies, foods, games, money, flashy things, etc.
Important Tips for Betting Sites and other Businesses on the addiction issues: Make your products/services safe and beneficial to customers. Better to have people addicted to very beneficial games,, foods, movies than have them addicted to dangerous ones. Make them good/safe and beneficial just incase your customers get addicted, the products and services will help them to be useful to their societies and themselves.
Also remember to promote Safe Bet

I believe the best solution to gambling addiction is to get rehab, there should be interaction from gamblers to professionals who would help them, not by seeking online advice only since even though they have the information on what to do, if they are not interested in doing it, it will still not help them.
