When gambling gets out of control it is a challenging and deeply isolating struggle. However, it is absolutely possible to get through this with shifting your mindset and accessing support and tools. One of the most crucial steps in overcoming this challenge is acceptance - acknowledging the realities of your situation and taking responsibility for change.

In this episode of Fold em, we provide practical tips and an inspiring personal story about how acceptance can help you get unstuck from problem gambling.

You get to benefit from the experience and wisdom of two guests. Jen Gregg has been a counsellor with Gambling Support BC for more than twenty years and has great insight into what is needed to overcome gambling problems. She's joined by Adam, a former poker player, who knows first hand how gambling can get out of hand when you least expect it to happen to you. He tells us about the bumpy road of fully accepting he had a gambling problem and how he was able to rebuild his life after being honest with himself and others.

Listen now and hear:

  • That it's common to be struggling with gambling, and despite this, not want to let it go
