For those that are aware or maybe wondering if they or someone they know has a problem with gambling. Problem Gambling is a lot less obvious than most other addictions. People may be unaware there is a problem until something drastic happens.These services are funded by the NSW State Government through the Responsible Gambling Fund.
Depak Chopra sees addiction from a positive view:
"I see the addict as a seeker, albeit a misguided one. The addict is a person in quest for pleasure, perhaps even a kind of transcendent experience - and I want to emphasise that this kind of seeking is extremely positive. The addict is looking in all the wrong places, but he is going after something very important, and we cannot ignore the meaning of this search. At least initially, the addict hopes to experience something wonderful, something that transcends an unsatisfactory or even intolerable everyday reality. There's nothing to be ashamed of in this impulse. On the contrary, it provides a foundation for true hope and real transformation."
