R.O.
R.O. is a 52-year-old man struggling with a compulsive gambling addiction, particularly to slot machines, which he began playing at the age of 16. He has faced challenges with alcohol addiction as well and has sought help multiple times since 2017, including stays in treatment centers for dual pathology. Despite a long history of recovery attempts, he has experienced relapses, notably after being drawn back into gambling by the accessibility of machines in bars. Recently, he has initiated a campaign to collect signatures aimed at prohibiting slot machines in bars, motivated by his desire to reduce temptation for himself and others like him.
