23. Gambling Help: Online Chat Rooms

Online chat rooms are a great way to get support and information for gambling problems. You can stay anonymous, share at your own pace, connect 24/7 and get inspired by people around the world who are also tackling this issue.

Listen to my conversation with Ken who has participated with online chat communities for much of his 19-years of recovery. He says that chat continues to provide him with hope and strength. You will also hear from Michelle Shewell who, like Ken, moderates a chat for GamTalk. You'll be convinced to give it a try!

To find out more about chat rooms for gambling problems, visit the blog for this podcast at www.gamblingproblemhelp.ca.

If you live in British Columbia and would like to access our free, confidential counselling and outreach services, connect with us online through Gambling Support BC or call the Gambling Support Line at 1-888-795-6111.
