this is the ego of the gambler who thinks he is not a gambling addict but it is different from the reality because they are indirectly included in it Cheesy

But on the other hand, there are experiences that must be used as a reference so that terrible things don't happen again. But as you said problem gamblers are not aware and will always get to the worse.

It could be changed but without the gambling addict's willingness to change through rehab. I have seen and know in person that even if you tell him/her that she is a gambling addict but their response is that he/she is not a gambling addict and they didn't gamble everyday but the truth is they alway gamble everyday. Mostly in my country they play card game.

Agree that rehabilitation so far is quite effective for dealing with those who are addicted, especially if they are aware of what it feels like to be overly gambling. So decided to rehab. With a lot of time, many gamblers have to go through rehab with the guidance of a psychiatrist. The strong urge to overcome the addiction will gradually wear off, but once you try to start it again it is tantamount to rekindling old wounds and not really succeeding in overcoming gambling addiction.

These are the reason why in some society playing gambling is not acceptable and in some religion like Christianity it is a sin to play gambling and to own such business. The cost of rehabilitation is a very big issue and what the person in question has lost throughout his or her gambling career is another big issue of concern.

Yes in christianity it is a sin to gamble and as well as in muslim religion gambling is consifered sin and in hi du mythology as well there are messages that gambling can destroy lifes but not mentioned anywhere that it is prohibited. Yes some people enjoy gambling but I think most of the peoples get in trouble in gambling.
So a strong mind set is required for a person who is doing gambling.

I agree there are positive traits that you can learn from gambling but this is something that's overlooked by many gamblers, not all gamblers are responsible gamblers who learned or got these positive traits, the majority of players have these negative traits developed that ruin their lives and their focus in their goal, the goal of every gambler is to attain moderation if they cultivate this trait they are on the safe side.

Maybe they are too late to learn to become responsible gamblers and do not want to learn it, making them unresponsible gamblers. If they know that gambling has positive and negative things, they will try to prevent the negative side effect that can happen to them. If they develop or get involved in the negative things from gambling, it will be a matter of time for them to become addicted to gambling. Once they have that problem, it will be difficult to solve it as they will not even realize that problem.

Those who are emotionally weak could turn these positive traits into negative things especially if they aren't too lucky in gambling. Sometimes, our misfortune could affect our emotions which could trigger negativity in us. We could only handle this if we'll know how to handle our emotions and if we know how to put limitations on gambling.

What exactly do you meant by being negative, I have been playing gambling for more than five good years now and till now am yet to be addicted and I will never be addicted, I always wonder why people do get addicted. If I want to stop playing gambling today I will stop that is to tell that am not addicted.

You can't play gambling, you gamble.
Op, there had been some drastic changes that I observed in myself after I started to gamble. I learnt self-control which never let me go out of my limits to gamble and I always stayed calm while gambling, so not to get the itching in my mind about doing it more or recovering what's lost. I always had a never quitting attitude but till I had a bankroll with me, but after that, I stop till I manage more to gamble and although I had so many btc once, I have lost so much in gambling and I regret those days' gambling.

I see myself ticking most of the check boxes lead out in the OP, the most I value the most is that of not having a never quit attitude which has pushed me to greater heights which I thought I would never could achieve. The other pointer of not holding onto certain things takes long to grasp but letting go of those losses and fighting another day is a real life lesson worth applying to everyday activities.

-Development of the ability to quickly let go of things and move on;

I didn't realize it until I read this thread of yours so I really appreciate the efforts of sharing it with us especially the gamblers in this community. When I lose my bet in sports, I am not that mad anymore or stressed out the whole day because of it. I just let it go and try again tomorrow.
It's somehow funny when I remember it. I didn't think there will be a positive side to gambling, not that I gambled way far.

Many do not realize the other positive effects of gambling and that is normal. I really believe that professional gamblers out there realize that gambling builds their mentality and mind, so don't always think that losing is bad, let's learn and grow from that bad experience.

If we learn from small mistakes and see changes for the better, it's very positive. However, there are reasons why gambling is banned in many places around the world. Unfortunately, many people do not see the negative effects of gambling and it is very dangerous for them. My point is that such people can get addicted easily and then unfortunately it is very negative.

What exactly do you meant by being negative, I have been playing gambling for more than five good years now and till now am yet to be addicted and I will never be addicted, I always wonder why people do get addicted. If I want to stop playing gambling today I will stop that is to tell that am not addicted.

It is the most effective treatment for gambling addicts for them to stop gambling completely. It is good that you have to do an evaluation of your gambling status. Some may say that gamblers are good at handling emotions but there is an emotion that can't be controlled all the time and that is being addicted to gambling or to stop gambling completely.

Well, you should not have to let yourself fall into addiction because it is really hard to get out from there and stop that.

Gambling had something to give and teaches us many things positively and negatively. Patience, mind-control, market analysis, and being positive/negative in life. Not just it help us to get mature in making decisions during hard situations but this helps us to have self-confidence and trust ourselves. In this place, we can now assess ourselves if we are too good enough at gambling or if it needs to stop.

One of the things you should mainly avoid whenever you had decided to deal or touched up with gambling is that never ever make yourself get addicted because once you do then it would really be a big problem of yours
on getting rid of it once it had caught you.

Gambling couldnt really affect someone who doesnt really have high hopes for it specially on making profits which you would really able to have no problems whenever you do engage or play gambling because it is
actually the most ideal way on dealing with it on the first place.

Good gamblers are those who immediately forget when they lose and win, not greedy and curious....sometimes excessive self-confidence is a bad thing, i ever won big but very confident can produce bigger wins as a result i lose big. when gambling we have to stop immediately when win or lose, don't remind and keep curious.

To stop at where we need to, you must need lots of practices and emotion control which is the reason that kind of stopping after winning or losing may not be possible for all gamblers. When Gamblers go for developing good emotion control by being highly discipline while gambling then stopping at preferred time might be possible. Gambling always gives room for developing such kind of skills but usually gamblers do ignore them.

When you are continuously rushing in something for catching impossible things then probably you will not mind about opportunities that may get you positive evolution of yourself. This is what exactly happening with almost all the gamblers and this way they are missing out developing good habits.

This observation are just necessities to build a good mental health for each gambler because some days come with massive win and some days might visit with disastrous losses so developing the mindset that suits both scenerio will keep good mental fitness in preparation for the luckier day which will definitely come

Those are aspects that we see positively when we assess gambling and those factors. The scenario changes if the gambler isn't looking into those factors.
But, has a lot to look at and he has his purpose why he is gambling. Opposite to the good factors and aspects, the negative comes out as one can't control himself from within when he's already on it.

Yes, gambler should always go for analyzing their emotional levels so that they could treat both losses and winning in gambling as a same thing. Unfortunately each and every gambler I have seen is busy either in strategy developing or finding a new platform for their gambling which is the reason they never able to find time for self analyzing to take care of their emotional levels and mental strength.

Evan gambling teaches good habits and skills, it will be helpful only if you are identifying them and supporting them otherwise it will go useless over the time when we are not taking care of them for grooming.

That is why the OP highlighted his last phrase on his post saying that this thread isn't created to encourage people to gamble more. It is about finding the positive attitude amidst dark clouds. You two are both right about each other's opinion and POVs.
Developing such positive attitudes unconciously is indeed helpful not just while we're gambling but it can be applied everyday in our life about that being optimistic even though you've had a hard rough day. And also, the ability to be consistent and being a risk taker despite the result. I believe told that experience is the best teacher and everthing we do have its own consequences and we are well aware in almost every decisions we make.

Everyone jump into gambling with sole purpose of entertainment but its thing that becomes addiction and you cant get away from it. I mean no one of us want to lose money in gambling but how many gamblers you have seen that are in profit (overall). The point is gambling failed to provide entertainment to people rather it brings anxiety in the form of losing money. That's my few satoshis.

Some of the people can't handle their extremely addition with gambling so some of them urge to play more gambling even though they know already there's a probability to lose their assets. Not all the time its all about the risk might as well people want to entertain only themselves it's the most use of the gambling to give fun to the people and just an additional to earn extra money.

From self evaluation and the evaluation of a few gamblers around me, i have observed that over time due to gambling activity, some characters worthy of emulation have been unconsciously developed by some.

Some of the characters that i have observed from the life of a few core gamblers around me and myself are;

-Development of Risk taking ability; to win big in life, you must be willing to try, and gamblers have so developed their risk taking ability.

-Development of the ability to quickly let go of things and move on; Dwelling on the past and the possibility of "what could have been" is really not healthy and it can weigh you down and distract you from "what can be". Though not so easy, gamblers have developed this ability to easily look ahead from the "near win" of yesterday, to try again today.

-Positive mentality (that is always believing that everyday we gamble, it may just be our lucky day for the big win).

- Consistency/ Not quiting attitude; Always trying regardless of previous results.

If you see yourself as a gambler, i implore you to put yourself in perspective and please share any positive trait that has been developed in your life as a result of gambling.

PS: The purpose of this discussion is not in any way to encourage you to gamble more, but a pointer to show that amidst the dark clouds, there is still a silver lining.

Maybe you got lucky and found the 1 out of a hundred gamblers who are able to stay relatively stable. There are also different levels of gamblers and that can make a huge difference to these personality traits - there are some who are completely addicted and the next bet will be on their mind as soon as they wake up, along with where to scrape the money together for it. There are others who will think of gambling as a fun side hobby, who might place a bet on the weekend to make watching the games a bit more exciting but could take it or leave it. I think if you've got control of your life and could stop at any time, then these traits can be good.
