Posted: Dec 06, 2010 |Comments: 0 |

If you think that your betting and gambling behavior are making havoc to your life, then this article is for you. But if you think that your gambling behavior is not an issue that should be taken care of, then stop right here. No need to read further. But ask yourself this. Is my gambling behavior makes no negative impact in my living? Think deep and be wise to get an honest answer.

If you are still with me than I assume you are having somewhat problem with your gambling behavior. But don't worry. You already have solved seventy five percent of your problems. Don't be surprised. You have come through with the most difficult barrier. And that difficult barrier is admitting that you are having problem.

I know a severe alcoholic. One day I asked him, hey Dick! Are you on alcohol? Have you become an alcoholic? The answer was, well I use to take alcohol sometime (in fact all the time). But I am no addict! I do this for pleasure...I do this only to … And there he goes. All the reasons why he had to drink, except the realization that he has so habituated with alcohol that he cannot do without it.

It is same with gambling addiction. In fact, it is same with any addiction and all the addictions. In all the case the victim always tries to deny that he is having problem. And that denial never lets him to seek for a remedy or solution to the problem.

But if you could identify that you are having problem with your gambling behavior, that it is pushing your life in disarray; then it would be the first step to find solution of the problems you have identified. It would be easier to take steps that would be necessary to deal with your gambling behavior.

    Unlike alcohol or drug addiction, there is still no formal diagnosis for sex addiction. To make matters worse, female sex and love addiction is similarly not recognized as a bona fide addiction disorder.
