It's not easy to talk openly about gambling issues. Nor is it easy to talk about living with mental health issues. In this episode, hear an open, thoughtful and inspiring conversation about one man's experiences with Bipolar Disorder and how this contributed to drinking, gambling and gaming getting out of hand for him. Hear how he is now free of gambling and living well. He teaches us about how to watch out for switching addictions.

Listen and learn about:

  • The connections between mental health issues, gambling and substance addiction
  • How to notice if you're switching addictions
  • How to find healthy replacements for gambling
  • Strategies to live well and stay in balance
