If a addict lives within, which method would you choose to help them

[Samlucky O]

As a member of a family and there is a gambling addict within, which method do you think it's the best to rip off the addict from your family member?

1. Talk to them and don't leave their side for too long, show them some love and make sure they don't have anything to do with gambling ever again, be soft and gentle with them.

Sometimes they way you guys describe a gambling addict, it looks like someone who is psychologically isane that need a psychiatrist or a sick patient that needs a doctor. All this idea propounded here looks pretty like someone who needs medical attention or a case that need people around you as if something tremendous has happen to the person. An addict just need an advice on how to control his emotions on Gambling habit, not some sort of pampering him like a sick person. We should be able to differentiate between a sick person and a gambling addict.

Fyi, there's a different level of addiction, if it is easy to cure them by giving advice, maybe there is no addict in the world, but it is not that easy especially if the person has reached the worst case level of addiction, they can no longer be taught or cured only through counseling because the only thing that can help them is the guidance of the family and intensive observation from medical experts. Maybe you will understand better what the purpose of psychiatrists or psychologists in the world is when you have encountered an acquaintance or relative who ended up being addicted.

Most people come from familes where gambling is not tolerated or is seen as something that's not for responsible people and i believe that's why most people are still addicted to it and gamble secretly, sometimes they which they could open up to close families for help concerning their addiction but then the fear of being backlashed would stop them from doing so.

 Most individuals forget that gamblers are humans too, who knowingly or out of ignorance made the wrong decision therefore it's our duty as family, friend or close neighbors to help give advice to people suffering from gambling addiction. It's something that could ruin the financial strength of an individual that's why i think the best remedy for an addicted gambler is booking a Section with a psychologist.

It is not taboo for us if there are many gamblers who hide their gambling, especially where gambling itself is not tolerated in a family. regardless of its relation to beliefs, or other reasons and so on. for me it doesn't have to be specific that this always leads to addiction, regardless of how someone secretly gambles without wanting their family to know. there are many reasons, and it doesn't have to be someone who is really addicted. although it cannot be denied, there are many cases where someone becomes addicted because of what you said in this post. The problem is, it's not that most people forget that gamblers are people too. It's just that fanaticism and other negative thoughts make most non-gamblers stigmatize that gambling is an addiction. In fact, addiction is the result of not having self-control. which starts from understanding, knowledge and experience. In the end, most gamblers are trapped in a situation that is a problem for them. Not a few, many gamblers are damaged due to what they do excessively, but not all gamblers are addicts.

But what is certain is that this entertainment provides a game that provides rewards and uniqueness in each game. Maybe the solution you mentioned in this post could be a reference for someone who wants to get rid of addiction. However, if it is not based on a firm desire and determination, usually a treatment like this will not last long. Honestly, I'm not a specialist in this field. However, there are many treatments that can be done by someone who wants to get rid of their addiction. Talking to the family and finding a solution is an important part. Furthermore, there are many other methods that can be used by the addict and his family to solve problems like this. However, each person has a different method for dealing with healing.

Have you met a gambling addict in real life? do all of gambling addicts become normal after you give "advices"? don't underestimate mental health issues, you need to be grateful if you didn't have it, while other people are fighting with it.

Exactly, it's why many people choose to share their secret with their friends instead of their parents or families, it's really ironic to see it. If the parents or families are open minded and don't just scold over their kids mistakes, I'm sure the kids dare to share their secrets.

I have come to realise that people only complain about gambling addiction of someone close to them only when they begin to see and feel the negative impacts of that person's lifestyle. I have seen quite a good number of addicted gamblers who have been very lucky to earn big consecutively from gambling instead of losing. Families and friends flock around them and get as much financial benefits they can get. These are thesame people that would advice or even disassociate themselves from the addict if he/she was always getting involved in troubles.

Families and friends have a lot of roles to play in ensuring that those around them are safe. First, they need to have an open mind towards gambling. They do not need to condemn gambling so bad that anyone who eventually finds interest in gambling begins to gamble in secret, this will make it difficult to help the gambler when need arises. Every advice given to a gambler goes a long way in shaping the life of that gambler. Whether  a gambler is doing well or not, Families should always speak up and do something whenever they find something fishy. Before bringing in third parties (psychiatrists or psychologists), the loved ones have a lot of roles to play.
