How Do You Find A Gamblers Anonymous Meeting?
According to the Gambler’s Anonymous official website, the description of a compulsive gambler is “a person whose gambling has caused growing and continuing problems in any department of his or her life.” If you fit this definition, or if you suspect you have a problem with gambling for any other reason, you may want to check out a Gambler’s Anonymous meeting. Learn about the philosophy of Gambler’s Anonymous (GA). Like other “Anonymous” programs, GA consists of a 12-step program to recovery. GA maintains that once a person is a compulsive gambler, he will always be a compulsive gambler. Once a person admits that he has a problem, he will never be able to be a “normal” gambler again. Decide if you are willing and ready to accept help for your gambling problem. No one can force you to quit gambling; you have to arrive at that decision by yourself. GA does not recruit members, nor does it advocate “interventions” by family members or friends. Visit the Gambler’s Anonymous website and cli
