Gamblers Anonymous is a fellowship for men and women who want to share their experiences and strengths with each other with the hope that they may together recover from their gambling addiction. The only requirement for membership is a desire to quit gambling.
A gambling addiction, also known as compulsive gambling or gambling disorder, is a behavioral addiction characterized by an uncontrollable urge to gamble despite negative consequences and a lack of self-control when it comes to gambling activities.
Gambling addiction can have serious negative consequences on a person’s mental health, financial stability, and relationships. It’s important to note that the consequences of gambling addiction can vary widely from person to person, and not everyone will experience all of these issues. However, the negative impact on one’s life can be profound, making it essential for individuals with gambling addiction to seek help and support to address their problem and work toward recovery.
If you or a loved one has been plagued by gambling addiction and live in the Lafayette area, Victory Addiction Recovery Center now offers Gamblers Anonymous meetings. Starting this Thursday, December 19th, Victory will be hosting a Gamblers Anonymous meeting every Thursday night at 6pm.
