It can be frustrating if you've promised yourself to pull back from gambling and then find you're back at it again. Sometimes this happens the next day. Sometimes after a month, year or more. It's not easy or simple to stay away from gambling when you're really hooked in to it. But as difficult as setbacks are, it's an opportunity to see more clearly what you need to do differently going forward. In this episode of Fold em, two people share their experiences of gambling relapses and how they are managing things differently now. My colleague, Manj Bath, who is a counsellor specializing in gambling problems, joins me to share tips for recognizing when you're vulnerable to a relapse and what can help to prevent this. Listen now and learn: How you and your support people can watch out for signs of relapse Strategies for managing triggers and cravings Why it's important to have a relapse plan - including what to do if gambling gets out of control again For more information on how to make a solid relapse prevention plan for yourself or with a loved one who struggles with gambling read the blog for this episode at www.gamblingproblemhelp.ca.
