I want to add that one of the symptoms of gambling addiction is low productivity in the workplace. Most of them are preoccupied with gambling that they will begin to lose concentration in their workplace. Some might even dump their work tasks because they want to stake games. Another symptom is the urge to always chase losses. Any gambler that always chases losses is showing a symptom of gambling disorder. Gambling addicts hardly accept their losses and walk away. They will always keep betting to cover their losses.
- I think and believe that a problem gambler can be helped by a professional gambler. Of course, the problem gambler will go to gambling to temporarily forget or escape the problem he is facing, so that what he feels might be replaced by excitement through gambling.
Now, if he meets a professional gambler, he can give him reminders and gambling ideas through the skills needed for gambling. Unlike the social gambler who is all about having fun and not thinking about getting money from gambling.

I agree, there's the adrenaline rush that we can get once we continue to play and when we win there's this kind of feeling that we cannot stop. I felt that as well even now there will some time that I continue to play after I already withdraw my winning because I can't stop the feeling but I am still trying to stop this because I know in the long run it will not be a good thing for me.
Adrenaline is what makes gamblers feel constantly challenged and play until they get pleasure, it's the feeling of pleasure when we win that makes us sometimes feel like we want to keep playing and get more wins, it's human nature that's difficult for us to avoid, a kind of greed because basically it's hard avoid that trait.If we can control ourselves from being greedy, of course we will not fall deeper into continuing to play and gamble until the money runs out, for example I play just for fun and don't focus on getting lots of money at the casino, so I can control myself more and know when to stop playing.

Just simple, you can't handle "deposit". That's one indication you are addicted, for example like you already winning and withdraw the money after that in the next 5-10/30 mins you are deposited again.
Deposit over and over again until your money is out, are indicated addicted.
True. Once you can’t discipline yourself and cannot even manage to control your finances, that simply shows addiction. Even if you win some significant amount, that will be useless since you won’t stop gambling unless all your money has been used up. So if you are already experiencing like that, stop gambling immediately. Otherwise, you may end up homeless if you resort into selling your properties just because you can’t control your urge in gambling.Just simple, you can't handle "deposit".

If he keeps depositing after withdrawing his winnings, he can do it again when he loses, which means he can lose all the winnings he has withdrawn. That's not a great way to enjoy gambling but a proper way to become addicted to gambling and will eventually become addicted to gambling.

I agree with the points you mentioned, and it is true that we already feel addicted, we should call professional people in handling addiction, it is better than fighting in its own way, from most people I meet in gambling addiction that healing is done by myself themselves, they failed and even if they succeeded, they needed a very long time to return to the beginning.

I believe that this generalized how addiction affects people; other behavior are unique to people. I've seen the 5 facts you mentioned, but at the same time, I've seen gamblers who are addicted hate people around them because people he was losing and couldn't help socialize with others, he also has this character of not having an appetite to eat, always thinking how to make more money to balance his losses and when he tried again, he always lost the money and every time becomes bitter, unhappy with himself and people who come close to him. I've also witnessed people lose their sense of logic as a result of addiction-related losses.
We couldn't think of a better future for these gambling addicts, they'll not just lose their opportunity to enjoy their lives but they separated themselves from other groups of people who are stress-free and happy.

The phenomenon you mentioned is the adverse effects of gambling addiction that occur. That's not even the only effect, there are many other negative things that will happen. Increasingly ostracized from their environment because addicts have unstable emotions, get angry easily and will always be alone. They also try to get money to be able to do gambling, by committing crimes or selling anything that can be sold. and other bad effects can turn to drug use for the purpose of calming themselves and some are even desperate to commit suicide when there is no way out at all for the conditions they face.

Always believing that you would always win. Despite each lose, you believe your certainly going to win the next round.
This is the push that drives most gamblers to keep up taking bets after bets without a limit to it. There should be a point where you call it a day and stop for the time being. Probably after you've exhausted your set aside gambling fund or spare cash for that purpose. There have to be some control over your gambling behaviour. It's the one way to making sure you can always return back to gamble again without much regrets.
When anyone find themselves in such situations then it high time you start looking for help with your habits because it has gotten to another stage where you are no longer in control.

not all of those points I agree "The urge to increase wagers to achieve the same level of excitement" does not mean he is addicted as long as he is still using his limited funds and that is the amount he can afford to lose then it's still fine, and when someone hides his gambling activity could be due to the culture in his family which does not regard gambling as a normal thing, so he feels the need to hide it, as well as borrowing money, as long as he is still able to return it then it is fine unless borrowed beyond his capacity to return the money .
The difference between a gambling addict and a professional is likely the difference between having a winning night or a losing night. Lol. In reality, I think gambling addiction just boils down to greed. People feel like they deserve to win a ton of money and think casinos are the way for them to get what they deserve. Unfortunately, it just doesn’t work like that.
J agree with this but some people do not know and do jot what to understand that making money from gambling is the reason most addicts are addicted to gambling. And to solve the issue is when you make the person realize that gambling is kit a way of making money, it is the other way around. Some people will not stop until they have lost a lot of money. Some people will even lost trust from people around them because gambling losses can turn someone to a liar and someone not trustworthy. Another important factor to consider is to check if you're always broke after gambling, it's not a good habit to be engaged i begging around for a living after which you have spent the little you have on gambling, some will even use the money meant for them to feed and gamble with it, some go extra length in taking loans to gambles, all these are what we must look into and adjust before people it get weird on us that people begin to suggest quit for us.
you're a junkie at that point.

Yeah, worst is that you might be taking a loan or have to take steps to produce money when you don't have it in your hand just to continue with your gambling. I remember that there was a thread here wherein the someone sold his property that he inherited from this father or a individual kidnapping his own grand kid for ransom just to continue with his gambling addictions.So there are still a lot of behaviors that we might not yet learn from the minds of a gambling addict. And they will do everything they think is "right" or order to fuel their gambling activity. For them it is justified and logical, but for most of us, it's the emotions of a addict that is taking over them.

Borrowing money to gamble is one of the crazy evidence that a gambler is already soak in gambling addiction. This can get worse mostly when the person do have consistent loses which can make them to look for other sources of borrowing money to bet with the promise that they are going to pay back with interest.
This condition will become complex when the gambler keep borrowing funds and is not paying his debt. Addiction is something that need a serious conversation and help with the victim so that the problem can be tackled at the appropriate time.
But that's the reality because many people still borrow money to gamble, especially those who are used to gambling. When they have no money, they will borrow it from others and gamble; if they win, they will return it. But sadly, it is not always what they imagine because they often come home defeated and lose all their money, which frustrates them.This condition will become complex when the gambler keep borrowing funds and is not paying his debt. Addiction is something that need a serious conversation and help with the victim so that the problem can be tackled at the appropriate time.
Maybe we often hear stories of someone having to pay off his debt by selling the items in his house and it really happened. This is where the danger is if we are too deep into gambling because it can make us unable to leave gambling and will even borrow money.
