Self-exclusion is a wonderful thing. I think self-exclusion is awesome. It's an awesome step if you've already done it. If you haven't done it, I think it's a good step to take as well, because it will make it so that you cannot gamble there. But, like I said, it's only one piece of the puzzle, because there's always going to be some other opportunity.
Imagine trying to quit gambling but finding it nearly impossible to avoid temptation. Jamie Salsburg, a former compulsive gambler and host of 'The After Gambling Podcast', tackles this challenge head-on by discussing the concept of self-exclusion. In this episode, Jamie dives into the effectiveness of self-exclusion as a tool for recovery. He acknowledges its benefits but also highlights its limitations, emphasizing that it's not a one-size-fits-all solution.
With the rise of online gambling, self-exclusion from every possible site and venue becomes increasingly complex. Jamie suggests a more comprehensive approach to recovery, including therapy, support groups, financial controls, and blocking software. By sharing his personal experiences and practical advice, Jamie offers a realistic view of what it takes to overcome gambling addiction. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to strengthen their recovery plan and understand the multifaceted nature of quitting gambling.
