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.
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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Sorry to say there are various types of work and job with their tasks, when you have lot of tasks at work place even though you must gamble it would be limited because you wouldn't want to messed up with your time the next day while resuming office. So, work is of various kinds and there are some people who even gamble at work place with their personal system or smartphone I will say this depends on the level of their activities and involvement in gambling.
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.

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.

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?
that is the importance of having limits and a good mindset with gambling. when you have a good mindset such as considering gambling is really just for entertainment, then I think there will be no excessive behavior such as betting all the money you have because when that happens, it is certain that it has become an addiction. and it is true that addiction is our own choice, because there is no element of coercion from the casino so it all depends on us to do it ourselves.

the thing to note is not to have the wrong mindset in gambling assumptions such as assuming that in gambling we can definitely make money, of course it is not big. because usually with such thinking it will only make us unable to accept the money lost in gambling and after that it makes us want to continue to recover losses by any means of course it leads us to continue gambling even though we have experienced consecutive defeats. this must be considered because addiction or not depends on ourselves.
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.

That is why it's important to set limit to gambling to maintain a healthy gambling lifestyle, one must not start noticing addiction before they could limiting themselves from gambling. When one is getting to nice and more attention to gambling then he should know that gradually they are getting closer to addiction but however, you already spoken it all because if someone doesn't want to becoming addicted he won't.

Condition actually push people to do things that they are not suppose to do because I wonder how people just get easily blinded by the truth, they always find it very difficult to put a limit to what they are betting they have ways to make things easy for them self, like have a budget but when they have small assurance the next thing they will increase the amount of money they use in gambling just because they feel they can make more money, and they keep gambling given their self more hope, and reducing the attention you give to gambling will help a lot, and I feel those that don’t do anything and they gamble plenty of them always take that gambling as another means for them to be making money, because for some one to have a serious job am very sure you won’t have time to gamble the way you want.
When life events happen, people begin to deviate from doing the right thing. Gambling without discipline is not an issue anymore because people have generalized betting without a budget, chasing losses to recover or chasing more wins as a pattern that is worth taking such risk. Even if at the end of the day everyone takes full responsibility for the choice we make after several warnings of gambling addictions still many are ignorant of it.

Time isn't the cause or an excuse for anything here. There are still people who are busy with their jobs and do not have lots of time but in their free time when they get back home. The level of gambling they get themselves into would be more than someone who dont have any serious job.

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.
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.

depending from the level of their engagements to gambling, some can still resist and value their work while some already attached that much and wanting to keep pushing forward, it's always a your self-will and addiction can developed when your attachment or your engagements are already too far.

Like what the post above you mentioned time is not really the main thing but it affects when you already consume a lot and you are unable to balance your wour work and your gambling activities.
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.
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.

Almost 90% of the people who have a thing against gambling do so because they feel that gambling is addictive. But come to think of it, isn't addiction a choice? After reading lots of stories on the effects of being an addicted gambler, I feel it's 100% possible to tell myself that I can never be addicted to gambling and won't ever get addicted.
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.
Quote

If for instance, I decide that I'm only going to gamble once a week and that at each time I will only gamble with an amount like $20 based on my current financial strength, would I ever become addicted to gambling?  Isn't it because you don't have any plan in place and just gamble as your spirit leads that makes you become careless with your gambling and become addicted to the process? Just want to ask this question;
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?

I agree and everything you said is true, as you said that the fact is most addicts do not know about how the scenario they can end up with addiction, meaning that addiction occurs unconsciously and not because of the intention from the beginning of being involved in gambling.
Do you really think addiction happens unconsciously? I don’t really think so. Before you join gambling, the mindset you have will determine if you will become addicted to gambling at the end or not. If you decide to join gambling because of money, then you should know that you are going to get addicted to gambling at the end, but if you already know about addiction and have the mindset of having fun when gambling, then you will be able to control yourself whenever you are gambling. So I don’t really believe that people get addicted to gambling unconsciously.

Yes I am sure with what I said above, I understand that making money a priority in the game can trigger various bad impacts especially addiction, or what I mean is making winning the main goal can trigger addiction as you said.

You also said that if someone knows that making money the main goal can make them end up addicted then they will prefer to get involved and gamble just for fun because with that goal it will be easier for them to control themselves, I think you need to note that there is the word "if" in the idea, meaning isn't it possible for them not to know about what and how addiction really is? isn't it possible for them not to know that addiction is a very bad impact that can destroy all aspects of their lives?

I think it is very possible, because not everyone comes with a true understanding of what and how gambling really is, especially in terms of its impacts, which in the end they do not realize that they have entered a cycle of addiction, not everyone knows that gambling with the intention of having fun is the only way to stay safe, I say everything based on a rational mindset, my friend, by using various possibilities as reference materials. Wink

           -    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.

Gambling without discipline is not an issue anymore because people have generalized betting without a budget, chasing losses to recover or chasing more wins as a pattern that is worth taking such risk. Even if at the end of the day everyone takes full responsibility for the choice we make after several warnings of gambling addictions still many are ignorant of it.

Time isn't the cause or an excuse for anything here. There are still people who are busy with their jobs and do not have lots of time but in their free time when they get back home. The level of gambling they get themselves into would be more than someone who dont have any serious job.
Sorry to say there are various types of work and job with their tasks, when you have lot of tasks at work place even though you must gamble it would be limited because you wouldn't want to messed up with your time the next day while resuming office. So, work is of various kinds and there are some people who even gamble at work place with their personal system or smartphone I will say this depends on the level of their activities and involvement in gambling.
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.

depending from the level of their engagements to gambling, some can still resist and value their work while some already attached that much and wanting to keep pushing forward, it's always a your self-will and addiction can developed when your attachment or your engagements are already too far.

Like what the post above you mentioned time is not really the main thing but it affects when you already consume a lot and you are unable to balance your wour work and your gambling activities.
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.

That is why it's important to set limit to gambling to maintain a healthy gambling lifestyle, one must not start noticing addiction before they could limiting themselves from gambling. When one is getting to nice and more attention to gambling then he should know that gradually they are getting closer to addiction but however, you already spoken it all because if someone doesn't want to becoming addicted he won't.

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.

I agree and everything you said is true, as you said that the fact is most addicts do not know about how the scenario they can end up with addiction, meaning that addiction occurs unconsciously and not because of the intention from the beginning of being involved in gambling.
Do you really think addiction happens unconsciously? I don’t really think so. Before you join gambling, the mindset you have will determine if you will become addicted to gambling at the end or not. If you decide to join gambling because of money, then you should know that you are going to get addicted to gambling at the end, but if you already know about addiction and have the mindset of having fun when gambling, then you will be able to control yourself whenever you are gambling. So I don’t really believe that people get addicted to gambling unconsciously.

Yes I am sure with what I said above, I understand that making money a priority in the game can trigger various bad impacts especially addiction, or what I mean is making winning the main goal can trigger addiction as you said.

You also said that if someone knows that making money the main goal can make them end up addicted then they will prefer to get involved and gamble just for fun because with that goal it will be easier for them to control themselves, I think you need to note that there is the word "if" in the idea, meaning isn't it possible for them not to know about what and how addiction really is? isn't it possible for them not to know that addiction is a very bad impact that can destroy all aspects of their lives?

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.

I think it is very possible, because not everyone comes with a true understanding of what and how gambling really is, especially in terms of its impacts, which in the end they do not realize that they have entered a cycle of addiction, not everyone knows that gambling with the intention of having fun is the only way to stay safe, I say everything based on a rational mindset, my friend, by using various possibilities as reference materials.

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.
