Though gambling has become increasingly prevalent in society, pathological gambling is a serious condition. This book represents the treatment for: controlling the urge to gamble, understanding the true nature of gambling games, and preventing future gambling problems. It also includes various self-assessments and exercises.
If you feel as though you can no longer control your gambling, if your gambling has interfered with your family, social, or working life, this Workbook can help you take back control.
Though gambling has become increasingly prevalent in society, pathological gambling is a serious condition. Pathological gamblers find they are unable to participate in their social lives, have problems at work, and end up in financial trouble because they feel compelled to keep gambling. Much of this problem comes from incorrect beliefs about the nature of the game; people feel they can "beat the system" or learn to control the outcome of games of chance. In this treatment, you will learn not only how to avoid problem situations, but also the truth about gambling.
Written by researchers who have spent over two decades studying the psychology of gambling, this book represents the treatment they have found to be most effective at controlling the urge to gamble, understanding the true nature of gambling games, and preventing future gambling problems. Intended for use in conjunction with supervised therapy, this workbook includes various self-assessments and exercises designed to help you reach the ultimate goal of complete abstinence from gambling.
This Workbook and the corresponding Therapist Guide form a complete treatment package that will help you overcome your gambling problem and learn recovery skills that are useful for a lifetime.
