The compulsion to gamble is a sickness...... It can't
be cured, but learning to say no, one day at a time,
will lead you further down the road to recovery.
The high of winning never last long, before the gambler
returns to look for that high again......
I've heard it said, that Vegas was built on the losers....
but this is untrue! The town was built on the winners,
that couldn't wait to come back and try for more.
There is help and hope in the G.A. program & meetings.....
I've never seen a program for the friends or family,
but there is surely a need. It is the family that suffers
equally with the one addicted to the gambling.
The life of an addicted gambler is busted or flush.....
The life of a recovering gambler is a renewed feeling
of self-worth!.
