Description

As we approach the holiday season, we are aware there are an abundance of triggers someone may experience when working in their recovery from gambling addiction. We are joined by Scott Meyer, NYCPG's Certified Peer Recovery Advocate, to discuss possible triggers and ways to cope. Resources mentioned in this episode include the Gambler's Anonymous (GA) Hotline 1-855-222-5542 and the New York State HOPEline 1-877-846-7369 if you are seeking immediate support. If you would like to be connected to Scott for peer support as we work to get you connected to treatment options, please call us at the Mid-Hudson PGRC at 914-215-6440. We are here to help!

Hello and welcome to the Hidden Addiction Podcast. This podcast is brought to you by the Mid-Hudson Problem Gambling Resource Center under the New York Council on Problem Gambling. Across New York state we have 7 resource centers dedicated to connecting individuals to care. We are here to increase awareness about problem gambling and advocate for support services for persons adversely affected by problem gambling. Problem Gambling is defined as risking something of value on a game of chance. There can be many types of gambling, and it can affect anyone at any time in their life. It may not be talked about often and kept in the dark, but we hope this podcast sheds light on the hidden addiction of gambling and brings forth resources and information for you to use.
