Does anyone on here suffer from compulsive gambling? Obviously there will be lots who do but don't admit it but do any of you openly have a gambling problem?
Also has anybody had experience with someone close to them suffering from gambling addiction?

There's gamcare, AA, The Samaritans, talktofrank - But why is there no charitable body for X Factor addicts, or do they just transfer sufferers to Dignitas?

To the OP, asking the question you have in the Chit Chat forum is like asking 'does anyone in here like a drink?' in a pub!
