Re: Dealing with the (sick) gambler
I am not a clinical psychologist, but EVERYTHING I have read from authoritative sources says exactly the same thing. If you are a sick gambler, YOU MUST COMPLETELY ABSTAIN FROM GAMBLING.
Don't take my word for it.
Definitely don't take the word of anyone without psychological training.
Consult a qualfied specialist or go to a few meetings of Gamblers Anonymous. You may realize that you are not a sick gambler. I hope you're not.
But, if you are, there is only one thing to do. STOP COMPLETELY AND FOREVER.
