    • Close Gambling Addiction & Recovery

      Am looking for a place to be with people with same problem, seeking support and being honest about my own situation.

      Treatments

      Distancing Working / Worked
      Avoiding places and people relating to gambling is pretty obvious I guess, having said that, these same places and people are things I am attracted to .
      Gamblers Anonymous Not Working
      Very low numbers here, sometimes only two or three people at a meeting, often with other serious problems, very few meetings and too dogmatic for me ,although everyone to there own, whatever works, I dont think 12 step is for everyone.
