Pathological gambling is a behavioral addiction, which means a person experiences a strong compulsion to engage in certain activities even when aware of the negative consequences of their actions. Independent attempts to quit the addiction are not only ineffective in most cases but can lead to deeper progression of the disease. Undertaking therapy under the supervision of experienced specialists provides the greatest chance of overcoming the addiction. Support from psychologists and therapists who know techniques and methods for dealing with addiction provides valuable support and information for the addicted person and their environment, which are crucial in the recovery process.

• Listen – give the person with addiction space to talk about their feelings and concerns. Be open to conversation, but don't force it.
• Encourage treatment – you can suggest therapy or talking to a doctor. Offering to participate together in therapy sessions or support groups can be helpful.
• Don't blame – try not to criticize or accuse the person with addiction. Emotional support is very important and crucial for convincing them to seek treatment.
• Set boundaries – establish boundaries regarding behaviors that are unacceptable to you. It's important to protect yourself and your resources. Don't forget about your own mental health.

Complete recovery from gambling addiction is possible, but it requires time, patient commitment, and support from specialists. The sooner a person with addiction understands their problem and takes action to change, the greater their chances of success. The decision to start therapy is the most important element of the recovery process.

During treatment, the person with addiction has the opportunity to understand what led them to fall into the addiction. To maintain results, it's important to maintain contact with a therapist or support group. Additionally, developing healthy strategies for dealing with stress and emotions that previously led to gambling is essential for preventing relapse.

It's worth remembering that gambling addiction is a disease that may require lifelong treatment. People who have achieved long-term recovery often speak of continuous self-work and constant avoidance of situations that could lead to returning to gambling.
