Progressione della dipendenza

Robert Custer, un esperto nella psicologia del gioco, ha identificato tre fasi nella progressione della dipendenza:

• Fase iniziale (Fase vincente)
  In questa fase, il risultato finanziario o la fuga dalla realtà ottenuta come risultato del gioco costituiscono motivazione sufficiente per continuare a giocare.
• Fase intermedia (Fase perdente)
  Le perdite cominciano ad accumularsi, il giocatore comincia a “inseguire” le perdite,rendendo il suo comportamento ancora più fuori controllo.
• Fase finale (fase della disperazione)
  In questa fase finale, il giocatore viene sommerso dagli eventi. Nascono problemi estremi dal punto di vista emotivo, finanziario e delle relazioni familiari/sociali.  Possono verificarsi anche comportamenti criminali, con conseguenze penali.

Dhakhtar Robert Custer aqoonsaday lix nooc oo khamaarlayaal ah:

1. Xirfadle: xirfad leh, awooda inuu xakameeyo
2. Bulsho-Diid ama Dambiile: u isticmaala khamaarista khayaamo, ku lug leh hawlo sharci darro ah
3. Iska Yimid Bulsheed: madadaalo iyo farxad, guulaysiga, khasaariddu waa kharashka madadaalada
4. Dhab ah Bulsheed: khamaaristu waa qaabka ugu muhiimsan ee madadaalo laakiin wuxuu ku xigaa qoyska iyo fasaxa
5. Soo Kabasho/Ka Baxsasho: inuu helo ka kabasho walwal, niyadjab, cadho
6. Ku Ba’an: ka kooban afar sifood: waa dhammaadka socodka):
   • Ku sii socod: aan dayn karin, sharatankaa bata, sii wadaya khamaarista intuu haysto lacag. Wakhtiga lagu qaadanayo khamaarku wuu kordhaa.
   • U dulqaadasho darrida khasaaraha, marka khasaare dhaco, khamaaraha darani wuxuu “eryadaa” lacagta dhuntay. Khasaaraha waa laga qariyaa xubnaha qoyska beentuna waxay noqotaa wax muhiim ku ah wareegga khamaarka.
   • Ku hawlanaan: Fikrdaha kusaabsan khamaaristu waxay noqotaa wax uu si joogto ah ugu taamo.
   • Is-illawsiiya cawaaqibyada: Inta lagu jiro marxaladdan ugu dambaysa, foorjariga, xatooyada iyo lunsadka xooluhu waa caan. Inkasta oo ay jiraan ficiladdan sharci darrada ahi, khamaarluhu wuxuu ku talo jiraa inuu helo guul wayn wax kastana sax ka dhigo.

Waxaan u khamaarnaa xiisayn iyo ku raaxaysi. Dadka qaar waxay u khamaaraan rajada inay lacag helaan si marka ay u dhandhamiyaan una taabtaan “guusha wayn” – wax keena qaab ay lacag ku helaan si ay riyadooda uga dhabeeyaan. Dadka qaar waxay u khamaaraan madadaalo, sida marka habeenkii ay u raacaan asxaabta kaasinada ama bingada lagu taageerayo urur khayri ah. Laga yaabaa inay tahay iibsiga tigidh mar ah oo lootari. Sidoo kale, waxa jira dad u khamaaraa sababtoo ah waxay jecel yihiin tartanka, bey’adda iyo badhaadhaha “ciyaarta”.

Marka la eego Xarunta La-qabatinka iyo Caafimaadka Maskaxda (CAMH), qaangaarka Ontario kuwaasi oon lahayn dhibaatada khamaarka waxay u khamaaraan asbaabaha soo socda:

• Si ay lacag ugu guulaystaan 
• Si ay bulshada u dhexgalaan 
• Raaxaysi 
• Wakhtiga isku dhaafin 

Marka la eego CAMH, dadka kasoo kala jeeda dhaqamada kala duwan waxay u khamaaraan asbaabahan soo socda:

• Si ay bulshada u dhexgalaan
• Si ay uga baxsadaan dhibaatooyinka iyo go’doominta 
• Si ay isku bartaan xubnaha kooxo dhaqameed        
• Si ay dib ugu hantaan mansabka bulsheed
• Si ay ugu dabbaaldagaal xafladaha diimeed

Gambling, Problem Gambling and Ethno-cultural Communities

In the process of working on this new initiative, we realized that the issue of problem gambling within ethno-cultural groups is very much an issue of access of culturally and linguistically appropriate services and also due to language barriers.

When we talk about ethno-cultural groups, we refer to minority ethno-cultural groups, when ethnicity applies to all groups. Ethnicity has many  multi-dimensional characteristics including nationality, religion, language spoken at home, culture and culture within own’s culture, traditions, social practices, customs, etc., as well as issues of self-identification, place of residence and personal definition of ethnicity.

As stated in the report “Dreaming the Numbers: Ethno-cultural gambling in Ontario (Lorne Tepperman et all, September 2004), “Culture and ethnicity are relevant to gambling behaviour trough culturally produced attitudes towards gambling.  Culture affects gambling patterns among members of a cultural group by affecting their ideas, traditions, social practices, customs and laws.  As members of a cultural group, we inherit and pass on culture trough our institutions, practices, technologies, art forms and modes of discourse” (Shweder 1991).  Thus culture affects nor only the availability of gambling facilities, but people’s attitudes and beliefs about gambling.  Culture determines the attitude and meaning that gambling has for its members, and in this way, culture affects the specific functions of gambling for different cultural groups (Abt et al 1985)

Ethno-cultural communities are under-represented in gambling treatment. The lack of appropriate culturally sensitive counselling services, as well as the issue of language means that these populations don’t have equal access to services and therefore they may be in a more vulnerable situation.

According to the 2006 Census, (www.statscanadaCanada has welcomed more than 14 million immigrants since 1901, over 1 million arriving in the last 5 years.  The  number and percentage of foreign born in Canada has steadily increased since 1986.  In Toronto 45.7% of the population are foreign born and over 200 different ethnic groups were reported.  The percentage of foreign  born also increased in other cities, in St. Catharines-Niagara 18.3%, London 19.3%, Kitchener 23.1% and Windsor 23.3%, Hamilton 24.4% , Guelph 20.4%, etc. Taking into consideration these demographics, it is important to consider the needs of these communities in regards problem gambling service delivery.

As stated in the 2004, Centre for Addictions and Mental Health, CAMH, “Provincial Diversity Needs Assessment Report”,  “the proportion of diverse ethnocultural/ethnoracial populations in Ontario has increased significantly, culturally and linguistically appropriate services are still few in number.  Diverse ethnocultural/ethnoracial communities often have different beliefs and attitudes toward mental health, mental health problem and substance use, and different opinions about what constitutes an appropriate model of treatment.  Western ideas about mental health problems and addiction are not always applicable to people from other cultural backgrounds.  A participant from the Rwandan community explains, “There is no concept of mental health in our community…. And there is terminology for addiction”.  Focus group participants wanted outreach to diverse ethnocultural/ethnoracial groups… as well as the development of language-specific and culturally sensitive approaches for these populations.”

However, due to the increase in gambling venues in Canada and globally, more research on gambling and ethno-cultural communities is necessary. During the recent years, we have seen a great emphasis regarding problem gambling and members of different ethno-cultural communities and their families.  As of May 2001, the Ontario Problem Gambling Research Centre (OPGRC) has awarded $1.6 million for research focusing on special populations., including ethno-cultural groups. Various organizations such as COSTI Immigrant Services, the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, CAMH, and the Ontario Problem Gambling Research Centre have conducted research among different ethno-cultural communities.   One can have access to “Addressing Problem Gambling in Toronto and Windsor/Essex County Ethnic communities and Exploration of Cultural Perceptions (gamblingresarch.org) and “Attitudes and Beliefs Regarding Gambling and Problem Gambling in the Hispanic, Polish, Portuguese, Punjabi, Tamil and Vietnamese Communities in the Greater Toronto Area” full reports, by linking the Ontario Problem Gambling Research Centre (gamblingresearch.org)  and or COSTI Immigrant Services (costi.org)

The results of the above mentioned research will be a great help to overcome the information gap regarding ethno-cultural groups and gambling.   More information will hopefully lead to the development of better, culturally and linguistically effective practices for the assessment and treatment of problem gambling for ethno-cultural populations.
