Where to seek help if you need; concerned with gambling addiction.

[Mahanton]

I think being a gambling addicted and having difficult to control personal finances due to this addiction is one thing, but stealing money from others to gamble is different and much more serious on my opinion. By doing this the person isn't harming himself only, but causing prejudice to third parties. It's the same as the drugs addicted that steals or kills to maintain his addiction.
When the situation reaches to an extreme like this only treatment isn't enough. Besides it, a punishment is also needed, otherwise the person will never learn how to respect others. As we live in society people must respect each other, doesn't matter if they want or if they have any kind of issue on their private life.

that's why all religions in the world forbid someone from gambling, because it has a bad effect on themselves and their families and even other people, when someone gambles and they lose of course they will be very desperate because they no longer have money, so inevitably they want or not will commit to be crimes, especially when someone who gambles will always drink alcohol and this will trigger them to do bad things.

It's not just religion that forbids it, the law also prohibits it and other people also prohibit or exile it because they don't want to be infected.
Gambling means being willing to risk something that was previously valued in the hope of getting something more valuable. As a result, a gambling addict ends up sacrificing everything he has, including possessions, lots of debt and crime or crime just to get money to gamble. and it can affect financial problems, work, to mental health.
and serious gambling addict should be cured completely otherwise it will result in suicide, seek professional help who can help him and delete or avoid the site as well or not come again to real casino, serious intentions and closer to God.

Actually only the minor parcel of gamblers will act insanely like this. This fact indicates the problem isn't gambling activity itself, but the addicted individual. There are people who have a tendency to become addicted and if it's not going to happen through gambling, it will be through alcohol, drugs, compulsive buying or something else. By turning gambling into illegal practice, governments and religions aren't saving people from addiction at all.
In order to save people from addiction, the society would need to cancel capitalism and tie each person to a chain, so they could be controlled 24 hours daily. However it looks more insane than the own addiction, right?

Too much to ask just to get rid of this one and also about capitalism then its really hard to believe even in my dreams for it to be cancelled so this isnt actually an option to consider. When it comes to addiction then the only ones who could resolve out is only yourself but if you do find out
that it cant be helped or you cant really resolve it on your own then thats the time you would consider on finding some help neither
from your loved ones or professional help because addiction isnt something that you could just get rid with.

This is it. The ban was carried out because of the negative impact caused by gambling itself, especially the gambling addiction. Indeed, not everyone will be negatively affected and many people can control their gambling. However, not a few also make problems and criminals because of gambling. Even the existence of gambling addiction makes it worse the situation, does not want to know if he has no money or has lost his mind because of too much debt due to gambling.
Because this is a fatal risk we should not do gambling if we don't use it ourselves.

[Fatunad]

Should be in order.

1. Seek help into your loved ones like family and relative.
2. Professional help

But honestly yourself realization would be the fastest treatment of all.If you don't like problems then better avoid gambling if you are a person which does have
impulsive or way too emotional on dealing with it because risk of addiction is high so better avoid it.

But some doctors do prescribe medications for fighting gambling addiction, and in many cases the drugs work. For example, there are antidepressants and mood stabilizers which can mitigate the negative effects of compulsive gambling. And there are others that can help in fighting the addiction itself. Check this out:

Medications that have been found to be helpful in decreasing either the urge to gamble or the thrill involved in doing so include antiseizure medications like carbamazepine (Tegretol) and topiramate (Topamax), mood stabilizers like lithium (Eskalith, Lithobid), medications used to address addictions like naltrexone (ReVia), and antidepressants like clomipramine (Anafranil) and fluvoxamine (Luvox).

As we've seen with the Opiod epidemic that engulfed America, sometimes Doctors may be doing more harm than good - not maliciously but because corporations have carefully crafted strategies to sell more drugs. You should obviously take professional advice (ideally at debt charities first) and not necessarily jump straight to the idea that medication is right - they can bring a whole other set of problems. Being in the right state of mind and having a stable setting around you is a key part of recovery that is overlooked. If you are unemployed, bored or lack social interaction on a regular basis then any one of these things can make you seek out an activity (like gambling) in an attempt to fill an empty void in your life.

Such things will be always happening because nothing is perfect in this world. However, if we are regular people, not health-care professionals, it is very likely that we know less about what drugs, or what measures, to take if we want to cure ourselves from gambling addiction. Professionals know better than we do about possible side effects and stuff like that. I would suggest to ignore those rare cases when doctors prescribe medications only to help corporations sell their drugs, and, as a rule, follow the advices of the doctors.

Number one is the first thing that we must do before going to a psychologist and asking for help.
But it seems, it is not easy to admit the reality that we are addicted to gambling to our family and we do not know how our families will react after they know our problem.
But that is what we must do to figure out how they can help us and search for the right psychologist to help us.
I agree that realization will be the thing that we must have before doing something because that can help us commit to solving the problem.

100%, I agree to this.

Self-realization is the first big step to cure your gambling addiction, and that's where you should start seeking help if you can't do it by yourself. Accepting that you are addicted in gambling means that you are aware of your problem, that you are really serious about quitting on being addicted, and not just some temporary reason for everybody's attention.

The problem is sometimes if someone is addicted to gambling, the person doesn't realize it, all he has in mind is just to keep playing gambling.
Usually a person realizes he is addicted to gambling, after his life is destroyed. So sometimes it takes someone else to wake up people who are
addicted to gambling. The most appropriate to help is the closest person to people who are addicted to gambling, the support of friends or
family is needed to cure people who are addicted to gambling. If it is too severe, then it is handed over to professionals who are already used
to dealing with people who are addicted to gambling.

Everything should start with you as even you've got some help from anyone without your self will nothing will be accomplish.

I agree with both statement and it's really an eye opener to any serious gambler who've got addicted, if they wanted to solve this and correct this issue
they need to accept and admit the fact that they can't control anything.

Quitting is not easy but with proper guidelines and your own will with action from yourself. it can be done!

As we live in society people must respect each other, doesn't matter if they want or if they have any kind of issue on their private life.

Thats why there's a consequences in our every action if you become involve in illegal activities or committed a crime because of addiction or to sustain it. Gamblers who became addicted deserves a second chance to change and to lead a new life however it depends on how far you go for being addicted. Someone to talk to is a big help to open up our problem, but a psychologist would be much better.

Every person who made a mistake deserves a second chance, especially if they really regret what they did before. But unfortunately, society seems hard to give that second and do not open their minds that every person changes after making a mistake. Everything that we did have a risk and consequences, but not all people can realize that. Talking to other people can solve the problem temporarily, but maybe it needs to go to the psychologist if the problem is worse.

Second chances are for people who regret on what they have done in the past and a punishment is indeed needed to let the person think about their actions and to make justice towards the victim. As far as I know people who steal deserve the jail. After they fulfill their sentence a new chance is given to them, so they can choose changing their lifestyle or continue doing mistakes.
Gamblers who steal to play are selfish and don't care for anyone else. They are not only damaging their own lives, but also the lives of anyone else they may encounter on their way. So first of all we should care for their victims.

Before it is too late, they should stop their habit and realize that they are wrong. If they can not stop at the right time, they will get the punishment and in the end, they will get into jail. If they are in jail, it will be hard for them to survive because we know how they live in jail. If they realize the mistake and admitted that they are wrong, maybe that will be easy for them to ask for help from others.

The truth is that the first step must come from you. You have to become aware that you are addicted to something and that you can call for help. The sooner you become aware of this the better it will be for you, your recovery and your family.
It seems that the memory of the first win also has a great influence on the overkill people have for gambling. People who gamble habitually tend to remember exactly when they first won and the feeling of victory they experienced.
It is there that we must start again, from the sense of frustration that was felt after that victory, for all the occasions in which, instead, you have lost a lot of money. It is there that the discomfort, the malaise and the addiction to gambling should be sought.
It is therefore good to leave aside the nostalgia of victory and focus, instead, on the effects that gambling has produced on one's life. It is necessary to get rid of gambling before it is too late and to do so, it is necessary to forget about that distant day when you won, move away from it and try to start again to eliminate this bad addiction from your life.

Freedom has a cost and the cost is that we are completely responsible for our actions and the consequences we face out of it, those people that blame external factors are just using a convenient excuse to try to make it seem that what happens on their life is not their fault, addicted gamblers are widely known for this and unfortunately governments believe them and this is why gambling is forbidden in many countries, but the ones responsible for this are the addicted gamblers as they would have gotten addicted to something else anyway if gambling was illegal.

Self realization will help.

But it won't be the answer to solve to one's addiction. If it's already that far from the normal addiction, those 2 that you have listed really has to be there for them to get some help.

A family that will show you love and support will be the best and most natural way of conquering addiction. But it's a good combination with the help of a professional.

[Peanutswar]

This kind of issue is really serious its better to take medical action especially with the mental health of the person they cannot make a good decision making due to having the urge to get gambling this is the reason why we are always saying to gamble moderately always choose the best for your side not only for the satisfaction of your self. By this kind of situation these people need to seek of an attention of some relatives and friends to guide them until they can back to normal.

[adzino]

Before getting in touch with those peer support groups and organizations, let your loved ones know about your problem. Things are going to be easier when you talk to them about your issue. Don't hide it from them. Nothing to be ashamed of. They will support you and you journey to get rid of your gambling addiction is going to become very much easier than it would be. First step is self realization, second steps is to talk to someone you trust about it and the final step is to get professional help. This is how it should be.

The punishment those people will suffer can come in many forms, obviously one of them could be in the form of spending some time in jail if they happen to steal from strangers, however if they happen to steal from their family it is unlikely the family would like to file charges against them but what will happen is that eventually the family members of the one that is addicted will lose any confidence they have in them to the point they will begin to reject the addicted gambler and leave him alone.

If they can do that, they will see that their family can help them solve the addiction gambling problem.
I agree that self-realization will be something that addicted gambling should have because with having that feeling, he will know how bigger his addiction is and think about how he can solve the addiction.
With the help from his family, maybe that can make it easier to find a professional or psychiatric or addiction health centre to help that addicted gambler because his family can do anything to help him solve the addiction.
It is better to take honestly to your family about your addiction than to solve your problem alone.

[Betwrong]

Solving the problem of gambling addiction is always better with the help of others than alone, but I wouldn't advise family, or close friends, over professional help. Your close ones can help you with finding a good doctor, and they can be supporting during the process of healing, and that's the best they can do. They cannot replace professional help.

Why you say so that they cant help or wont be that relevant? Professional help is indeed better but doesnt men that friends help wont be helpful at all.

Solving problem alone is rather be the first to be tried out rather than on seeking out for another help from loved ones or professional.
Self realizations is much more effect and doesnt only talks in terms of financial concern but also wont really be requiring too much effort
or not really hassle at all.

If you do find out yourself to be that impulsive or emotion towards gambling then better to avoid it out while its still early or dont make yourself get
attached to it.

Aside from professional help, your loved ones or family will care more than anyone else.
simple example, if you are sick or something harms you or suffers, who will take care, wait and give you good advice, whether someone else.
families will care more and try so that their family members do not suffer, especially parents and they know better what to do for their children even though it is wrong.
So, I think the people we love and also love us will care more about us if we are suffering and whatever.

That's a fact but having a support and acceptance from your family and relatives or close friends, that will help you win against addiction. I agree about getting a professional help but if you can mend that with the help and support of your family, I think that's also fine.
But if it's already to the point of insanity with addiction then that's really need to seek a professional or if you can avail that even if you're not at that state then that's good.
