There's an important step that often gets missed when stopping gambling. This involves asking someone who knows about gambling issues or addiction to help watch out for signs that you're at risk to gamble again. Why is this important? Because you may not be aware it's happening or will downplay it in your own mind.
This is our third of four episodes that focus on how to stop gambling and have it stick long-term. Hear how Abe got really honest with a friend about what triggers him to gamble. They have been working together to come up with plans to protect him from relapse. You also get guidance from Allison Rice who works as a counsellor with Gambling Support BC and brings twenty years of experience with helping people overcome addiction.
