And gambling is just like any other aspect of life that should be enjoyed regardless of the fact that some people needed to make a whole lot of money out of it,

when gamblers have high hopes of making money from gambling, then the gambler's situation will get worse. if you are a gambler then you must take a firm stance. work to make money and gamble to relieve fatigue. although in reality gamblers focus more on making a win from gambling. but there must still be awareness in managing their gambling activities. otherwise, everything will fall apart, from finances to relationships with those closest to you.
if you already know the risks, what kind of gambler you become depends on our own choice.

I agree with your point of views, because anyone who is a gambler their mindset is to make money through gambling, and that makes them to experience lost in gambling, any gambler that concentrate on wining every game he gambles that gambler end up in losing the game, I believe that gamblers really needs what will benefit them, but people who gamble without hoping to win in all game's that gamble are the people who have the opportunity to win in gambling, but I believe that gambling have to do with luck or opportunity, in summary gamble to catch cruise not be always beneficiary.

Agreed and this is what I use gambling as, as a form of entertainment. It's never going to be a money maker loan term. It provides entertainment just like spending money on a concert or going to a sporting event. As long as you keep it to that then chances of getting addicted is much less. But in terms of it being a choice I don't think that's factual either. Addictions are serious and it's OK to get professional help.

Right!
I doubt the fact that some people are chronic gamblers and may likely be affected on their habits because even though they seems to be very tight they would still create out time and chance to gamble at their break period. Most times it's not advisable to gamble at work because it could lead to serious damage either using working hours for gambling and it's very bad and disappointing seeing people not diligent to their dutie.

Gambling at work is literally a bad idea and shouldn't be practiced. The fact that a gambler can gamble at work without being able to control himself, it shows that person might be addicted. And irresponsible gamble always follows addiction if not taken care of. Once you start getting addicted you could gamble at work and if you eventually loss everything, you might have a moody day which could in turn affect your performance in your work place. You might necessarily get sacked but eyes are always watching and when that keep happening, the company would have no other option than to let you go if you don't recover from your attitude. And that could cause you your job which is the major source of your income. Addiction don't always go well and that's why we must learn to gamble responsibly.

I totally agree with you. A tendency to gamble at work can create a negative outlook for you and at one point lose your job. You will definitely have your rivals at work and they will never wish you well and will always catch your mistakes and it may reach the ears of the superiors. I think you should choose a specific time to gamble like after office hours and before going home or whatever time you find convenient. I devote time to my family and office management and gambling for leisure. It all depends on your own desire but you should be disciplined in every case so as not to get addicted to gambling.

You must keep your alternative source of income fixed and take care of your job because without money you are very much immobile at present.

There are free periods for lunch in the workplace. So that i enough for someone who likes gambling a lot to spend some time gambling irrespective of them being in their working station. However, for those who are addicted gamblers they can't keep to these rules or schedules. Addiction could cause them to gambler at any time. That is the reason why addiction is really talked about. Because it don't just make someone lose a lot of money in gambling but it affects the person's behavior towards other activities. It can affect productivity as well and make someone lose his mind.

Lunch period is just like a free time that everyone can use to do whatever pleases them. However it's obvious that people who loves to gamble will always find a cool place were they can chill and predict a game and gamble. Nevertheless, anyone that gambles at work is kind of getting close to addition. Whichmeans, it means that a gambler is not allowed to gamble at work either lunch period or not, he's no supposed to gamble. Well, if the person really want to gamble he can place the bet earlier before the person goes to work.

I think one of the reason why most people easily get addicted to gambling, is due to having the mindset of thinking that they can get rich quick through gambling, that they can easily make good amount of money by just hitting the jackpot without thinking about the negative effects attached to gambling , that one can easily lose a huge amount of money through gambling. Because gambling is not any form of charity it all boils down to luck so if you ain't lucky you will definitely endup being at the losing side , same thing goes for being lucky, you will be at the winning side , so gambling is not a means to get rich quick.

You are right, for most people, gambling is a quick money doubler and because they have luckily won a few times, they can begin to feel more attached to it and by the time they put all their hope, could be when they will just get unlucky and end up to experience an unexpected lose that will cause them a very serious lose that they will regret for a long time.

In gambling, players chose their part, it actually someone that wants to be addicted that will be addicted. Some people actually knows when they are beginning to get addicted but they often ignore the symptoms until they become so enveloped in the habit.

Gambling addiction is completely personal And here any person can get addicted very easily. Because gambling depends on profit. This topic can actually be compared to a game. As we level up in a game the level becomes more difficult but even if we lose we keep doing it again and again until we succeed or we can't quit. Same thing with gambling when someone wins once in gambling and after he catches again he wins again few times then it becomes an addiction and even after he loses he keeps doing it again and again with hope and at the end of the day it becomes addiction. is Now if we think of gambling as fun instead of focusing on profit then it will not affect us much and will not make us addicted.

Addiction is something that comes on the moment or time on such you can't be able to control your spending money and loses on the moment that you do deal up with gambling which this one indicates that you are already addicted to it.Its indeed a choice had made out and that's why it's really important that you should be wary on yourself when it comes to action been done and wary about on potential effects that it could give.Its always important that awareness on things will be the key for you not to do stupid things or decisions which is actually that laughable.

That's the problem, raising false hopes. We have said it many times on the forum. Good gambling should be about having a good time and thinking that you might make money that day, but better to write it off, betting with money you can afford to lose and not pin your hopes on it. Believing that gambling is going to be the way out of your problems is usually the first step to making them worse.

The truth is that, most of these gamblers who allow themselves to fall victim to gambling addiction are all very much aware of these facts you’ve stated here, but still can’t resist the temptation of prioritizing the potential gains over the fun and thrill of the game, and the honest truth is that, a lot of gamblers who end up losing more than expected due to loss or wins chasing already know that chasing losses would lead to more losses but still can’t help it no matter how much effort they put to avoid getting caught up in that endless cycle.

I'm not reading through 20 pages to see if someone has already posted what I'm
about to post but here goes...

I believe that not all addicted gamblers are fully in control of their habits in
that they have an addictive nature, they fall victim to "addictive" hobbies, games,
activities, Gambling, Alcohol, Drugs, Food, Sex.

All of those things above are healthy . . . in moderation, as soon as
they become addictive by anyone they become unhealthy.

Most people know this and realise it when they are addicted but they cannot
do anything themselves about it, others know it but believe they can work through it,
and others still believe they are working through it while becoming deeper addicted.

Addiction at its beginning stage can be controllable. But it becomes a big problem when you are addicted to a thing for a long time. I have been addicted to something but not gambling and I know how difficult it is to resist it. Sometimes one will be under an influence that you will have to obey if you want to feel satisfied. Sometimes there is a void inside you that can only be filled only if you engage in that act. I don't criticise or condemn people who are addicted to anything because they want to break free if they can. They need assistance and support.

That's not just it when the person doesn't notice the early stage of addiction. Mostly, problem gambling leaves no warning, as a result the victims end up finding out later on through the help of a friend or relative. But, if the player is lucky enough to detect it in time, they'll easily correct the excessive impulse that is with compulsive gambling.

Addiction is complex and involves genetic, environmental and psychological factors. While personal choices play a role it’s not solely an individual's fault.

Lots of people struggle with addiction due to circumstances beyond their control like trauma, mental health issues or social environment.

Understanding addiction as a disease can bring compassion and support rather than blame which might encourage addicts to seek help and recovery.

If people who have limits in gambling will definitely not gamble in the office because they understand the risks if they are caught as a gambling addict, currently many companies are socializing about the bad effects of gambling on mental and economic conditions in the future and hope that in the companies they work for, there will be no employees who have financial problems due to gambling.

If for some reason a gambler becomes addicted then he conducts his gambling anywhere. Especially if these things are done in an office then it has a negative impact which should never be done. In this case the gambler makes a fatal mistake. Because if any senior official in the office comes to know about his addiction then he will definitely be dismissed from there. The effect of this is that he will put his family at risk as well as himself. All in all, the gambler will lose everything. Gambling is not about making money but losing a small amount of money and enjoying some time is good.

We hope this does not continue but unfortunately we can stop gambling addiction totally because some people will always have this problem. Gambling addiction can be inherited when our parents were gambling addicts and we grew around them therefore we also have same problems. Getting addicted is also by choice because if you do not accept to be a gambling addict, you would not be one. You can have addicted parents and grow around them yet you turn out to be different. You can still be gambling but you do yours responsibly and not put yourself in a situation you have to use your company funds to gamble. That is an irresponsible act and you should be ashamed of yourself if you are the type that do that. We can gamble for fun but we should know our limits so we do not over do it.

Sometimes, some addictions like gambling addictions can be traceable to physiological problem, and can require medical help to get treated for it, although the ratio of such form of addictions is low compared to the one that is mostly self impaired addictions where the individual is heavily involved in the process and activities that resulted into his addiction.
Most times we should be able to point out this Factor if we want to deal with the addictions, if it a physiological problem them the addict should seek help from any mental health doctors and with some few prescriptions he will be ok.

And if it a self afflicted addictions, same approach should be applied also, by first determining to quite gambling by all means as the first step to killing the addictions, because the more you stay away from gambling the better you become daily as someone who was once addicted to Gambling.

I think that if the object of victory in gambling is not money then it seems very unlikely for a gambler to fall and get carried away in the wrong mindset and approach to gambling, I am not saying that putting excessive expectations on victory in gambling is the right action, because after all it is a fact that gambling is not only about winning but also about the risk of losing which is always part of the game.

I also think that it is best to have a neutral perspective on this activity, in the sense of understanding that you can get extra money when you win but also realizing that you are very likely to lose money when luck is far from you, but one thing that a neutral perspective can only be owned by a gambler who from the beginning sees and assesses gambling rationally, because the decisions you make at the beginning will determine how your fate is at the end of the journey, you should not be trapped in a circle of decline when from the beginning you know about what and how the activity you are facing.

Can you comfortably tell yourself that you have never been addicted to gambling and that you can never be addicted to gambling because of how you go about it?

Just as said addiction it's one's choice and at such one has to know how to control it and handle it effectively, looking at the rate of gambling addiction in the society and the effects it has on an individual every gambler should be rest assured to gamble freely in the Sense that they all gamble with the lowest of their income and don't ever chase after losses cause it's the ability to cover up for one's loss that results to one being addicted.
And gambling is just like any other aspect of life that should be enjoyed regardless of the fact that some people needed to make a whole lot of money out of it, so for me addiction is one's choice if you can control your habits of gambling your rest assured not to be addicted and as far as you can control some little habits of yours you can as well do that to your gambling habits too.

Right now we have a culture of working hard and playing hard, basically people put so much effort into their jobs that they want to unwind and not care about the consequences of their actions when they do so, this explains why we have binge drinkers and other similar behaviors, included those that gamble way too much during a single session, and it is this lack of responsibility that can make someone addicted to gambling and only realize this is the case when they have lost a great deal of the good things they had on their lives.
