Adult son with Aspergers gambling

My 24 year old son has Aspergers, although not diagnosed as there is no funding in Ayrshire for adults to be diagnosed, we have done all the online tests and he scores high on them all. 

We have now found out he has a gambling addiction and is thousands of pounds in debt.  I am worried sick and don't know how to deal with it. We have made him go to gamblers annonymous and also took bSneezing faceank cards off him, informed gambling sites/payday loans of his addiction.  What else can we do? Sneezing face

  • And he needs to understand for himself that gambling is a bad habit. My friend was also a gamer, but he overcame this addiction. He found one site [removed by Mod] there he chose the best casino (according to this site) and staked all his savings. Of course, he lost everything, and immediately after that, his desire to gamble completely disappeared, and for more than two years, he has not gambled. Your son can still try to see a psychologist. I hope you can beat this addiction.
