history: I have a friend who has a real bad gambling problem. I'm sorry to hear that. So have they been clinically diagnosed? I don't think so . I believe the internet makes it too easy for people to fall into this trap. Then there is too much shame in seeking help. Yeah, do you think he also has an Internet addiction disorder? It's a mystery to me, but I believe the internet has caused a whole load of disorders, many have not been researched enough yet to provide treatment. Gambling can have a devastating effect on families and loved ones. I see. I know there is a group of disorders called Impulse-control disorder, where people just can't resist temptation. I wonder what they would prescribe to manage this. CBT perhaps?
