Topic: Addiction is 100% your choice: - page 4. (Read 3050 times)

Yes and maybe I would say that it is a situation where the level of addiction has reached a chronic phase, where as we know that it is a level of addiction that can really make a gambler justify any means to realize his desire to continue to finance his gambling habits, and it all starts with a scenario of borrowing money, and when they do not get a loan then crazier actions are very likely to be done such as stealing, cheating or even robbing.

That is the terrible action that will be done by a gambler who has reached a chronic level of addiction, there is no consideration whatsoever regarding the risks in front of him, but that is done not meaning that they can accept defeat but because of the hope and belief that is already very high in victory which in fact all these actions will only bring them to a much worse situation and more significant regret.
In simple terms I would say that addicted gamblers are those losers who always want to win but are not ready to accept defeat, even though from the start it was clear that defeat was part of the game.

If the addiction level is already at the stage of borrowing money or selling valuable assets for the purpose of gambling, it is a sign that it is time to stop. Because if you don't stop immediately, someone could do more than you imagine, such as committing crimes to get money, there are lots of news about this. Close friends or family should advise him, before everything gets out of control. Someone who gambles for fun can control their emotions well, and usually they come from people who have more stable finances.

The biggest enemy of gamblers is their own ego, where they don't want to accept defeat and all they think about is profit. Of course this is driven by the intention to return the money they have spent before, even though it was all the beginning of chaos. At a certain point, the nature that a gambler must have is to know themselves and understand their financial position, by evaluating these two things I think their attitude will be more controlled. Besides that, many gamblers are mistaken about the courage to take risks.

If they are already addicted to borrowed money, they will play for gambling and do not care about the risk of losing it, they want to get a high multiplier if they get greed, they will finally increase the bet by taking a high risk and they can lose their winnings in gambling.

It is certain that those who chase losses are addicted players, if they are not addicted when they lose, they will stop playing and then return next time when they are ready to return.
But if you are addicted, it is difficult to control your emotions, you always want to play and pursue what the player has lost.

If they are addicted to gambling, then I think there is no longer a target to chase losses and there is no longer a target to multiply their money in gambling. Because when they are addicted to gambling, they will only continue to play to express their pleasure in gambling. After all, when they become gambling addicts and it is certain that they will bet every day but in reality, they also lose more often each day than they win.

With these factors, they basically turn to gambling as a hobby and therefore, this thread has a title about being addicted is a choice. At least, that's what I think because when someone gambles they actually lose more often. So, when they become gambling addicts, basically they no longer prioritize the results because obviously, they lose more often than they win.

This is based on the gambler. Those that are in for profits don't get the chance to stop playing until they lose everything and unfortunately for most of them they still used borrowed money and gamble again. But those that are not in for profits have the bigger opportunities to stop gambling when they can as soon as they discover in that they are on losing spray. However those that chase after their losses are the ones that is easy to become addicted to gamble.

In gambling, some people try hard to recover their money when they lose gambling and there are some people who lose gambling and stop gambling at that time. But I think that gambling addiction is an addiction and the person who becomes addicted to it will never think about money because  He will always want to multiply his money by gambling. However, sometimes due to extra profit, he has to lose money by gambling.

There are two possible impacts that can occur and be experienced by someone when he tries to combine work time with gambling time, firstly the possibility is that you will lose and lose the money that is bet and secondly it is also very possible for you to eventually lose your job, the reason? I think it is clear that the situation at work is a time where we should dedicate ourselves completely to work, you are paid for sacrificing your time and energy, or what I mean is that you exchange your time and energy to earn income.

And also of course the results of your work will not be optimal, and of course it can be known by your boss which may eventually raise a question about why the quality of your work results is bad, or even worse is there is a possibility for your boss to catch you gambling during work hours, and clearly this is a scenario that can make you lose your job, which I think there will be no tolerance for you, because overall gambling is an activity that has a bad stigma from the public's perspective, moreover I think there is still plenty of time for you to gamble, you can do it when you have finished all your work, meaning someone who tries to gamble during work hours is most likely a gambler who is already very addicted, in the sense that they cannot miss a single moment not to gamble.

Wont really be just that good for gambling but also in other aspect or things in life on which it would really be that relevant that you would really be making up some good decisions in speaking about on the things that you are getting involving into. This is why it would really be better that you should really know on limiting yourself specially on gambling where money is really on the main talk.If you wont really be that making yourself that too sensible on things then you are just basically putting up yourself on such potential trouble on which it would be causing up that regret on which same as said above that regret is always at the end and not on the beginning and this is why being that responsible and being that too mindful about on the actions been doing will always reflect whether it would really be that positive or negative.

Be careful on doing things on which always follow on which you do seem that it would really be that something viable and something useful specially into your family. Who does want a broken family
just because you had spend up too much money with gambling and ending up on failing with your priorities and other important things. If you dont like for your life  to be like that then be responsible
and be mindful on your actions.

Very true. Setting budget and limits is how we can control ourself. We need to cultivate the habit of setting and following our rules.
For example if a person wants to wake up at 6 a.m. every day then he needs to set an alarm and make sure he wakes up when the alarm rings.
So here the rule is to wake up when alarm rings and following this rule he will be able to cultivate the habit of waking early everyday.
Same goes for gambling and we need to quit gambling for the day/week when our budget for gambling is over.
This way we don't end up losing more than what we set our limit to. Thus not getting addicted to gambling.

You tell yourself over and over that you're in control after losing, but that's just complacency. Because people who gamble have a sign of addiction to it. Gambling addiction is a choice but when you are tempted to chase losses or win extra you may be in a position where you can't stop it anymore. Moreover gambling addiction control and discipline is an important aspect of the person fundamental position.

As it should be but on the time or moment that you are already that too addicted with gambling, then this is where shit do things happen. On the time or moment that you do find yourself
having that kind of dealing with gambling on where you are already that too addicted then control and moderation is almost impossible or unlikely because the primary thing that comes up into your mind is on how you would be making up some sensible decisions on which on the time or moment that you do neglect your family or dont mind about those consequences then its your call but i would be telling you this that regret is always on the end and on the time that everything turns messy then recovery would really be that so damn hard to do so. If you do think up well about those things
then you would really be finding yourself responsible on what you are doing.

Getting deep into gambling means it will be difficult to control it and the future might become a problem too.
Let's face it, addiction is just there waiting for us and if we cannot control what is happening anymore, depositing a lot of times in one day, then it might be wise to think about what will happen next.
I can say I also have been in a situation where I thought I was a gambling addict but thankfully I am not yet in that phase because I can still rest for 2 to 3 days without it which means I can take a day without gambling and not even think about it.
Now, that means it's a choice for me and it's not that hard to change as long as we keep our discipline.

You are correct. The tendency of gambling at workplace is very harmful for people because at workplace should strictly fulfill one's professional duties and one's accountability. You should prioritize meeting the daily needs of yourself and your family and schedule your normal professional activities accordingly. You must entertain yourself which should be at idle time after busy work keeping in mind the financial capability.

Falling in addicted of gambling is not by some people's choices because there some that is not they know much about the gambling or having experience on it, but a moment that they start earning  little amount of money from gambling it will be very hard for them to stop the gambling, because of the kind money that they have earned in previous back.
Yes off course it can happen since some didn't have intention to gamble forever or to become an addict, but like example now person who try to gamble once and on his first day of gamble is end of losing, what are you expecting from this person is going to stop or it will continue?

Gambling should not be done when you are at work because it is something that you need to do during your leisure time and not at work no matter how less busy that you are. You can do other things at work and not gambling because you will not have all the time and concentration when gambling at work. Any gambler that gambles at work lacks self control and is after chasing profit and and entertaining himself, which will later be a problem for him.

           -    To be honest, we know that gambling should not be prioritized as making money in any crypto casinos in this business field. It's just that there are other gamblers who are just stubborn and have this mindset in their view of gambling.

And the gamblers who have this belief and hope in casino gambling are the ones who often become addicted to playing gambling. in real life. And it's also our choice to be non-addicts.

Of a true work varies and depending on a nature of job that's what will determine the chance a gambler would have to spare for his daily gambling activity. Meanwhile, let us not forget that we there are other activities we may have so instead of satisfying our gambling habits we may choose to do something else. At the end of the day, we may find out time, perhaps after work to gamble or within the work time frame. The most important thing is that no matter how busy some gamblers can be in a day, whether work or no work they must satisfy their taste for gambling. Sometimes it's not even about winning anymore it's just that urge to gamble they want to.

We control ourselves in our gambling activity so if we feels that we are deep in gambling, we can try to reduce so that will not makes us getting gambling addiction. We engage in gambling but not for too deep because that can cause our minds will thinks gambling more often and we will difficult to do other things that could be more important than just playing gambling.

Time and money is the main thing that can affect us to playing gambling for too long. That's why we must keeps our limitation so we can control the time to playing gambling and only use the money we can afford to lose. If we can combine that with self control and discipline with other things, we will not gets addicted to gambling because we will always aware of the risks of playing gambling.

It is true that it depends of the nature of one's job that will determine how much time he will put into gambling. There are some days that I am always busy at work and I would be stressed up after closing time which makes me not to think of gambling at that moment and sometimes for three days I have not gambled. On the other hand, there are also sometimes at work that there is nothing much to do.

Whoever is less busy at work and is gambling during his free time is an addict because he cannot be free for long and that will distract him from giving his colleagues the attention that is needed.

Most people enter the world of gambling without any information about addiction nor its dangers, only to be awakened after they might have suffered addiction and pulled through it. Information is not evenly distributed in the world and for someone without it, I would not totally blame him as we work with the wealth of information available to us at any point in time, so your point is validated. There is a popular saying that what you do not know is bigger than you and that is the case with them. They were ignorant of addiction, and it conquered them. The guy you quoted is only using his experience of being pre-informed as the only basis of judgement and to me it is one sided and not balanced.

Definitely, and some people who have heard about it does not fully understand it until they have been hit by the wicked man addiction and they fall back to the information against addiction as a guiding principle, most times after a huge financial loss and wasted time.
