Wasn't there a similar story in the forum the other day?
Suspicious......

Especially a forced admission is cheese with an adult child.

The first prerequisite for a compulsory hospitalization is that the person's mental illness poses a significant threat to public safety and order or even to his or her own life, or at least to his or her health. Particularly after suicide attempts, admission to a closed psychiatric ward is often the first step, and this is usually against the will of the person concerned.

We are still a long way from that. At least in the case of gambling addiction. If you destroy your own financially, that's fine.
But I'm skeptical about articles like this anyway. Very similar to the other thread.

absolutely ^^
before someone is forcibly committed here in the brd, something more must happen than gambling away a few euros on slots.
where would you go if it was that easy?!

my heartfelt condolences to you, I can only advise you to present your son with a fait accompli. If necessary threaten with expulsion etc.. I am a gambler myself since 14 years and I have gambled away half a fortune and I hate myself for it until today. Mostly only the ripcord or the very deep fall helps. Therapies can of course also be effective. It is important that you stand by your son everywhere. Maybe he has to fall very deep on his face! What is also important, if he has friends who animate him to play, avoid them immediately. They are not friends!

Hello Idiot85,
I only read scary stories from you here ... Have you ever tried to get help and stop gambling? If so, what was the reason that it did not work...?
All the best ....

From you I always read here only very scary stories ... have you ever tried to get help and let the game be? If yes, what was the reason that it did not work...?

These are not stories, this is reality. I have been gambling free for two years. I will now take this offline as a goal. Online I have always had myself under control but never in Spielos. A fifty is nothing nowadays and gone within minutes. A player always remains a player. Since I have no children etc take or burden almost only me with it. I can advise anyone who has started to play not to do it in the long run. Even a big win ends times if he comes at all

Please excuse - the word "stories" was not chosen very happily ... yes awesome that you rather lose control offline. I have so far only happened online because the money is more abstract ... I wish you in any case that you manage to stay away from the arcades and get back control.

Coming back to the topic, I have made the experience through my mother (was addicted to alcohol since my childhood)
no matter what I tried, conversations, forced admission, even helped her to get her stuff, and and...
In the end only one thing helped, I moved out and left her to her fate, today my mother has been dry for 3 years as she is
thanks to her excessive drinking she got a pancreatic cancer, and that was the point where she realized if she doesn't stop now, she will definitely die
she will definitely die.

So the others are right, if you love him you have only one choice (as a mother I know how hard this is) but kick him out, he has chosen this "lifestyle" so he has to face the consequences
so he has to take the consequences for it, of course as a parent you are always afraid for your child, but sometimes we have to
we humans have to fall to see our mistakes ourselves.

I wish you good luck that he finds his way by himself and he realizes one day that it no longer works.

Many love greetings
