Has gambling got you down? You're not the only one. Tune in to this episode and learn what you can do about it.

Hear from Chris about how gambling was the norm with his group of friends during their twenties. When he started online gambling, it became more and more consuming. He started gambling by himself, the bets came faster, and he gambled for longer periods of time.

Chris talks about the bumpy road of stopping gambling. He had been able to stop drinking and drugs cold turkey and on his own. This didn't work with gambling. He shares what helped him to stop and turn his life around. Chris brings a lot of wisdom to this conversation - from his four years of being bet free, as a long-time participant and host of online meetings, and from doing his own research and studies on addiction and the brain.

Listen now and learn:

  • Why gambling gets out of control
  • What helped Chris to pull back from gambling and stay away
  • How to connect with Chris and others who understand gambling problems and are willing to help

Chris says he has connected with many compulsive gamblers around the world via email. He shared his email address for anyone who would like to write him - chris12steps@gmail.com
