Do you have a problem with gambling online? CPF is committed to providing a fun and unique website for online poker and casino games but we also strive to provide assistance for anyone who has found the fun of gambling turning into an addiction.
Compulsive, uncontrolled and underage gambling can affect anyone involved in online poker, online casino games, sports betting, horse betting and pretty much any game of "chance" could potentially have a secondary effect on personal matters and family life of the individual. When an individual begins forming habits of a compulsive gambler, they simply cannot see the difference between playing a few games of poker as opposed to playing every single day.
Compulsive gambling, like many addictions, is a problem that cannot be easily detected. Uncontrolled gambling makes an individual feel that with just one more bet, he or she can pull themselves out of the financial hole they are in. That is why in most cases a compulsive gambler never recoups their money back, only to fall deeper into financial and emotional debt.
Indicators of Compulsive and Uncontrolled Gambling Symptoms
Spend more time gambling than with work, friends or family.
Neglect responsibilities from work and family.
Tried to stop or control gambling habits with no success.
Need to lie when asked about the amount of time spent gambling.
Borrow money from others to pay for gambling debts or future bets.
Bet more money or more bets attempting to recoup losses.
Sell personal possessions for gambling money.
Many of these symptoms sound similar to individuals who are fighting a drug addiction problem. Well, compulsive gambling is a drug for those that cannot control their spending limits. If the above examples remind you of someone or even yourself, there is help available. Please review the links below and consult the proper organizations to assist you on the road to recovery.
