Gambling turn into slavery.

[Yablee0]

Am just curious of what I can possibly do to help a friend that has turns into a slave in gamble. He no longer care for his family perhaps his kid's have been sent away from school and he didn't give a fuck about it, his wife complains all day concerning his attitude towas them, he barely stay or spend time with his family, a lot has gone wrong so to speak. And the craziest of it is that most times people come looking for him at home because of the money he normally borrowed from them which I believe was used to fund his addicted Gambling life style.

The truth is that my friend is at the edge of destroying his family by himself if something isn't done on time. To be honest I have tried all I could but it seems falling on deaf ears.

[_act_]

Maybe he is thinking he can continue to gamble, that one day he might make it from gambling, but that is delusional despite that it can happen, the probability that it will happen is one in a million.

Just keep correcting him is what you can do, but make sure you correct him with bad news about gambling addicts and how gambling addicts will always argue until they are significantly affected badly.

From what I have seen from gambling addicts the more you try to talk to them the more you found them going deeper into gambling and at then they sees gambling as the only way to restore whatever they had already lost and telling them to quit is like telling them to let go all they have lost while gambling. For me, it would be that better to tell the few gambling shops around their axes not to let him gamble anymore and also take all access he could have from online gambling so that he could pay attention to his family again.

I’ve come to realize one thing there is no point in trying to DO GOOD for someone without their consent. If a person feels comfortable in their current situation and isn’t bothered by the possibility of losing everything they have, there’s very little you can do to help them. In some cases, they may simply keep relying on you, and eventually that can push you away as well. Sometimes the best thing you can do is allow a person to hit rock bottom on their own. Only then might they fully understand their situation, come to their senses, and, with a new perspective on life, start rebuilding it from the ground up.

I have someone that is also gambling before, he was very addicted and he was telling us how he was losing money. I told him to quit but he will be doing as if I am not right. But what I noticed about him is not that he is going more into gambling addiction because he is already addicted, and I noticed he did not stop. His father kept money with him which is not a small amount of money, he spent all on gambling. It was a difficult time for him but that was when he stopped. I was glad that his dad forgive him and that he did not do something bad for himself because he told me that he wanted to kill himself.

From observation, this degree of gambling addiction spans basically from not having job to do and using gambling as a means of whiling away time. In the long run, the victim continues to gamble uncontrollably and will eventually get himself all soaked in such that it becomes almost impossible for them to do a day without gambling. How can tkh help such a person? The only way You can help such a person is to encourage him to get something doing and if he already has what he's doing, just talk him to be more focused on his job.

For an addict to come out of his addiction, he needs to engage in other things that can take out his time and prevent him from thinking too much about gambling. His family has to also help him out of the situation because typically, an addicted gambler can't buy himself come out of his addiction.

You can't do it alone, you need his family as well and obviously the gamblers himself. But that is the hardest part because gamblers are into denial, they don't accept that they are falling into the gambling addiction and didn't see that around him, everything is getting rekt.

Maybe just talk about it one on one and see how it goes. Just don't be too confrontation as gamblers doesn't like that. Just explain to him what is going in his life and what could be the possible consequences and that you are there to help him in any way possible, sort of just an assurance that there will be someone beside him in this journey to change his life for the better.

Why is this person still your friend? It sounds like they are horrible to his own family which means that he is probably going to only be a leech to you as well. Tell him to sort his shit out and it's time to stop. He is a slave by choice, any day he could choose to quit and face reality like the rest of us have to do. There are no excuses, he is burying his head in the sand and acting like a child but he has clear responsibilities that need to come first. The fact he has ripped off many friends and instead of paying them back he continues to gamble, makes him a lousy person. Any single day he could decide to be different and take the long, hard road back to being a decent person. It's not easy, but it's what a good man would do.

Nothing, that is the worst thing. His family need to get your friend into rehabilitation with strict rules and makes him realize what he have done to his family. But I guess that is not easy as your friend is not stays at home or spend time with his family. It is a bad sample of gambling addiction and if he doesn't get a help from others, I am afraid he will desperate and will end his life. It is hard to solve the problem as he doesn't want to cure himself from gambling addiction so it is a hard and challenging for his family.

Just keep correcting him is what you can do, but make sure you correct him with bad news about gambling addicts and how gambling addicts will always argue until they are significantly affected badly.

I suggested the same thing as you said, all his thinking might be telling him to continue pushing that one day, he will surely make it through gambling, this gambling of stuff, there are categories of gamblers that has already taken this gambling to another level that it is not only effecting him only but with the family as a whole, let him not just correct him with an empty hands, if there is any means were by he can engage with something that will always keep him busy or something that can help him in erasing such act from him totally, because he just felt that gambling is his only option in life to survive with.

Because you are not a sibling, your friend who has a severe addiction will not listen to you.

There is nothing that can be done except for his own brother to enter the person immediately in rehabilitation in a special place, because if he is advised, it will not work, maybe it can be said that his heart is immune to not hearing anyone gambling so badly.

Usually people like this will be stubborn, not listening to anyone's advice, their lives want to continue to be alone and while playing gambling.

It is more common for a gambling addiction to commit suicide because of how much they have lose while gambling or how much they borrowed to gamble with the intention to make a life changing winning but when it didn’t come as they planned they often quickly decided to take their life.
Gambling is addiction is a very bad thing and I wouldn’t encouraged anyone gambling to go borrow money to gamble instead they should be gambling with what they have at hand or even allocate 1 percentage of weekly/monthly income to gambling so that when they lose they wouldn’t be that entirely being affected for any reason or even think of the amount they lose.

He needs urgent professional help. His gambling addiction is at the level that he might consider going into crime or even harming himself to pay for the debt. His family or friends need to help him to stop gambling immediately. His finances should be under his wife's control so that it could be managed and used to offset his debt. This is one of the dangers of uncontrollable gambling activities. It doesn't just affect the individual; their family, work, and relationships are also negatively affected.

[Nrcewker]

It’s called pure addiction, nothing else. Sadly, your friend has become addicted to gambling. Now, his addiction is not only hampering his own life, but the whole family is suffering because of it. He needs rehabilitation to get rid of this addiction. He has a family, so he needs to take responsibility for them.

Ask him to take up a job and repay the lenders in small installments. If he wants to live freely again, these are the things he has to do. Sadly, casinos widely circulate posts about big lucky winners while promoting themselves, but people are unaware of those who regularly lose everything in these casinos. As a result, people keep gambling in the hope of winning a massive amount with just a few clicks.

Feeling sad for your friend’s family.

I commend your deepest concern to your friend current situation. Surely, he is destined to be doom if he keep doing his addiction to gambling but the sad part is only his family can make him force to change while directly confronting him as a friend might result to disagreement since he has no legal obligation to follow on your advice.

I suggest to seek for legal remedies for his wife if he think that the husband is already showing some negligence due to gambling. This will help him to remind him to fulfill his obligation as a father to his family.

This is the only potential solution I can see if talking is already useless as an option.

[Youngrebel]

Gambling addiction can actually change a persons behavior without them even realizing how badly they are hurting the people around them and from what you explained, your friend is losing control and it is already affecting his wife, children, finances and even his reputation. The sad truth is that you cannot force someone to change if they do not agree they have a problem, but to me I feel you you should not give up completely on him, tbis gambling addiction of a thing sometimes only stop when they finally face the consequences of their actions. Try talking to him calmly again, not with insults or anger, but by making him see what he is gradually losing snd if possible, involve close family members, or even a counselor or religious leader he respects because at this point he seriously needs help before he destroy his home completely.

It's kind of a critical situation so far. He isn't just becoming a slave; also, he has become heavily addicted to gambling, and his brain doesn't work properly right now. Unless someone helps him to come out from the gambling addiction, the situation will be worse. Because he can't focus on his family or himself due to the gambling addiction. His friends and neighbours should stop borrowing him. Otherwise he might become a fugitive at the end of the day.

At the beginning people gamble as fun. Day by day they become addicted, and being heavily addicted to gambling really creates a worse situation. To be honest, he needs counselling right now to get out of his gambling addiction. His family should take care of him and help him as well since he doesn't understand anything right now except gambling.

Because there is no willingness from your friend to improve his life and his family, it will be difficult with advice alone. Such cases are already like drug addiction; overcoming them requires an expert in mental rehabilitation. 
Your friend is not the only one who has just experienced financial ruin that affects the family. We have seen many cases like that.

[Ishicryptic]

You can take a horse to the stream but you cannot force it to drink from it so if you have done your possible best to help a friend out of gambling addiction and he persists then there is nothing more you can do unless you keep trying or leave him to his decision. I believe that the first step for an addict that have decided that he has a problem and he needs help is to first identify that he is an addict and it is affecting him negatively. The willpower to tell yourself the truth about your problem and that you need help can be the first step to recovery, if you're living in denial about your problem will only degenerate it so the true change of an addict has to start with him.

[Ruttoshi]

The best thing your friend can do for himself is to stop gambling before things get worse than this because time is coming that his lender will get him arrested and his wife might leave him for good.

It's not too late for him to start fixing what he has caused his family if not, he will regret his actions. Addiction is the problem he is facing and needs to see a professional.
