We hope that the narratives in First Person Accounts will evoke an understanding of how people experience gambling. These experiences may come from gamblers, from family or friends of gamblers, and may be positive or negative. We invite others to share their experiences as First Person Accounts or to a dialogue in our Letters to the Editor. First Person Account An Opinion
