There is always a way out for gambling addiction. Self-control is really needed indeed, that is the most important thing to remember. Don't you ever say that you can't make it, everything is possible. There is just something to do with you mindset and take the actions.
Self control is the key, however it is just easy to say that but it's hard to do. We are govern by our greed for money when we gamble. Sometimes we just convince ourselves that we are just doing it for fun but when we lost or win we cannot just stop at the right moment but continue to gambling until we ran out of money.
