Chasing The Bet: Gambling Addiction and the Psychology of Compulsive Behaviors
Are you or someone you love caught in the endless cycle of placing "just one more bet"?
Gambling addiction is a silent struggle-one that destroys relationships, drains finances, and leaves behind a trail of emotional wreckage. Despite increasing awareness, compulsive gambling remains widely misunderstood, often disguised as "bad luck" or "lack of willpower." But what if the problem isn't just the behavior but the psychology behind it?
Chasing The Bet dives deep into the hidden forces that drive compulsive gambling and what it really takes to break free.
Whether you're battling this addiction yourself, supporting a loved one, or seeking a deeper understanding of human behavior, this book offers clear, research-backed insight into the why behind the addiction and, more importantly, the how behind recovery.
Inside this book, you'll discover:
- Why gambling activates the same brain pathways as drugs and alcohol
- The psychological traps that keep people hooked, even after devastating losses
- The role of shame, secrecy, and stress in relapse cycles
- How to identify key triggers and replace harmful habits with healthy coping mechanisms
- Evidence-based treatments that actually work (and why some don't)
- Personal stories from those who've faced the addiction and come out stronger
Don't let another bet steal your peace of mind.
