Gambler Workbook for Gambling Addiction
A gambler often asks this question – Is gambling a sin?
Putting aside any religious ideals or differences aside for a moment, I suppose in the strict #3 definition of the word – sin – as found in Dictionary.com it is :
Sin - any reprehensible or regrettable action, behavior, lapse, great fault or offense:
One of the biggest problems I have encountered with a gambler trying to stop gambling is that unlike other addicts who are dulled off and medicated a reforming gambler is wide awake and sharp as a tack! Which is why I wrote this little workbook to have something daily to do!
In case you are wondering – I personally have close to 30 years of recovery and abstinence from compulsive gambling. I actually came by the habit quite honestly because as a child i had asthma and could not play sports so my uncles and family members taught me how to gamble which I loved due to the adrenalin aspect which actually medicates asthma.. go figure.
Anyway I wrote this book in 2001 and it has seen many successes as one tool in the toolbox of a recovering gambler!

This website is about recovery – not making money – but it wouldn’t hurt to pay a few web hosting charges if you decided to visit one of the sponsors ads… I have kept outside ads to a minimum so it’s not so frustrating to read. Hate those pages with an ad between every paragraph.
Have a great One Day at a Time! Dean 🙂
