22. Gambling Help: Online and In-Person Support Groups

Many people are reluctant to attend a gambling support group. However, there is something about connecting with people who are addressing the same issues that not only brings so much relief, but more importantly, is really helpful.

Hear from a poker player about why he decided to try groups and then has kept going for the past four years. My colleague, Matt McLean, shares how online groups are way better than he first imagined.
