I have been battling many issues for years and gambling has been smurfing with me here in the last two weeks, which goes with my ETS. Don't like any funny stuff but of there is a good source I would love to hit it up. Thanks

I know in my State, we have legalized State-owned gaming machines. My state has a Gamblers Annon 1800 phone number, and state and county resources to assist with this State-run gaming machine thing.

A friend of mine (a VET), signed up for the VA program. Took a few months to get in, but he got sent to a VA treatment program half-way across the country for about 30 days.

Not sure how he did it - maybe went to his VA Mental Health provider?

Just one more thing to get recorded on your VA medical records, so you can get some assistance with this "Jones".

In addition, please reference the attached document entitled "Guide to VA Mental Health Services for Veterans & Families" for potential assistance. More specifically, view information starting on page 9.

As such, stay positively proactive and remain strong! Take care!

Thus, I quite often comment that "possessing well-informed knowledge is truly a powerful equalizer."

Best Wishes!

Honestly, you might want to go to AA meetings. They will take in gamblers. Also, see if they have gambler anonymous meetings in your area. You can also message me if you'd like (been there) and I'll give you my phone number.
