Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Gambling Addiction Recovery Journal
Ascension Books · 2018
55/100
👎 Skip It
Structured journaling is a genuinely useful tool in addiction recovery, and the format here — tracking urges, identifying triggers, reflecting on progress — is sound. But this independently published journal has no documented clinical expertise behind it and is indistinguishable from numerous similar products. Someone in gambling recovery would be better served by a journal recommended by their counselor or a program like Gamblers Anonymous.
