Reading this guide may have helped
you to notice new things about yourself. Some of these things
can be hard to deal with. Some may even be life problems that
don't have anything to do with gambling. If you think that you
have some other types of problems (or even some gambling problems
that you need more help with), you should consider getting additional
support or treatment. Some of the resources here may may help
you, should you decide to seek additional information or counseling. |
