So many people addicted to the gaming machines bringing despair and breakdown in relationships and ruining peoples lives. addiction becomes an illness that is very hard to heal as is drugs and alcohol, and comfort eating, a step backwards in our society. There is help out for for people with these addictions but very hard to find and long waiting lists.
