How to Stop Gambling

If you are concerned that you have a gambling problem, it is important to seek help. While gambling can be a novelty and can be an enjoyable social activity, it is not something you should turn to exclusively. Often, gambling becomes more important to the gambler without their knowledge. The stress from increased gambling can lead to an addiction. You can learn to stop gambling by understanding why you get involved in this activity. There are many organisations that offer support and assistance to those with gambling problems, including counselling. If you are a family member of a person with a gambling problem, there are also ways to help.
