    • Close Gambling Addiction & Recovery

      I've come to realize that I'm not gambling for fun anymore, it is a real addiction and I need help. My husband is very "tight" with his money and I am so afraid of telling him that I need Help. I'm 48 yrs old and have been married to this wonderful man for 7 yrs. I was married before to a compulsive gambler, smoker and alcoholic for 21 yrs. I don't want to ruin what I have now.
