Recovery is seldom successful without it. A gambler by himself, isolated and deluded into thinking he is in charge, will surely trudge down that same road that saw him arrive at the brink of self destruction in the first place.
Support is essential.
Contact the local NCPG affiliate in your state. Call Gamblers Anonymous as listed in your local phone book. Call the hotline in your area, or one of the nationwide hotlines. Volunteer to help others. If you are the gambler, you seldom will succeed alone.
