No such thing. If there are, it’s a rip off site.

Answer by Alison
I am confused – an addiction (eg gambling, alcohol, drugs, sex) is not a personality disorder (which is a kind of mental health issue). There are self help groups and 12 step groups for things like alcohol (AA), cocaine (CA), gambling (GA) etc. 12 step groups are free. You can also get face to face free support from drug services. Counselling over the internet would be pretty tricky as you need to read someone’s body language, plus they need to be paid for their time….
