While it may be tempting to gamble to get rich, this may not be a realistic goal. Instead, gambling is an escape from everyday life and is a form of entertainment. To combat this problem, it is crucial to improve your social life. Make friends outside the gambling world, take up a volunteer activity, or join a peer support group. Those who are suffering from gambling addiction are encouraged to join Gamblers Anonymous, a 12-step program modeled on Alcoholics Anonymous. To participate in this program, you must be assigned a sponsor, a fellow gambler who will provide support and guidance.
