Gambling addiction is a serious matter because, this could really affect our well being on how we treat ourselves and to others. Gambling also could make us lose the integrity in our living because, it makes us disregard more important things than gambling such us our responsibilities in our family and in the society. When people gamble, mostly they do not know that they are little by little being drawn into the gambling world that when not controlled will deeply influence their status of living.
Always think a hundred times before gambling, regret always comes last.
Topic: Assess your gambling addiction level. (Read 1166 times)
Perhaps I can attribute myself to level zero. Sometimes I play poker online, and I also almost never miss an offline poker game with my friends.
Otherwise, I can forget about gambling for a month or more and not even think about them.
This is probably due to the fact that I am well versed in the issue of the possibility of winning against the casino, as well as in probability theory.

I am not a heavy gambler so maybe I am between level 0 and level 1 I think. Everyone is a gambler so I won't consider myself level 0. In school we gamble which choice we choose from A to D. There are other things that we gamble like making decision and the most common of all is gambling on a casino either fiat or online crypto casino.
Some of my friends became addicted to gambling in the past. A few of them recovered from that, and for the remainder the final outcome of their addiction was quite tragic. From what I have seen, I would say that most of the time if a person feels lonely, then there is a high risk that he will get addicted to something. So the best thing to do in such circumstances is to engage yourselves with something productive.
Beginning level of gambling addiction do not need any treatment but taking break from gambling may cure you. If you are unable to take break then you are already into intermediate level ask help from friends to keep you busy.
Severely addicted category must need to visit doctors to change their life style. For this category gamblers, taking break from gambling temporarily solve addiction thirst but professional guidelines will help to recover completely. Rehabilitation centers will be the ultimate destination when everything else fail.
Level 0:
Gamble while gamble and may forget it for months. Gamble only with friends and gambling is not an option to kill boredom.
It's very important even if we are going on a higher level from time to time to always go down to level 0 or 1 most of the time, if we keep ourselves in a higher level, we are in danger of ruining ourselves, it's important that we assess our level from time to time and this for our protection.
I can see myself in 4-6 "addicters club"group, the addiction level is at the high level. As explained, the gambling business are based on the house edge and as a gambler I need to control my emotions for not giving all my bankroll to the house. Intermediate level is good compared to the highest possible level but it is definitely bad for newbie gambler.
Level 1 to level 3: (beginning levels)
1. New gambling ideas flashes in your mind even you are too busy with your studies or work or with friends/family.
2. Already lost in hundreds still you are strongly believing to recover them by innovating new strategy.
3. Made $50 then why not $100 or $500.
I am at this level. now I can still focus more on family and business in the real world, I set aside a few hundred dollars of my income to play gambling/month.. manage finances for the family, should be more a top priority. 1.

2. Already lost in hundreds still you are strongly believing to recover them by innovating new strategy.

Maybe we could find only level 0 and 1 players here. 
Other two next levels may not have time to visit forums like this one.
Myself can play gamble for hours and can forget gambling for months so I can rate me as level 0 addicted player to gambling.

Gambling is not the answer to all of your financial problems, it will only worsen it. If a gambler came to that level where they took all of their attention in gambling while looking it as a source of income, then this is the time that someone should help that person to stop from being addicted because a lot of people had been there and you all know what happened to them.
For the person who in the last level better for them to be careful of what they doing because that level is one sign that you are one of the addicted player. For the level 4 to 6 Im that level and I think most of the players now in the crypto gambling like this.
But for the person who in the beginning levels I hope they can maintain their good habit.
It is difficult for them to maintain these good habits for those who are new to gambling, because usually they will continue to gamble until they do not realize if their addictions continue to increase. But for those who are at the final level and then able to reduce gambling to get back to the initial level, then at least it is a good achievement because they can have good control, so it is possible for players like this to be able to maintain their good habits so as not to again prioritizing gambling as a source of income or even a source of fun. But for the person who in the beginning levels I hope they can maintain their good habit.
I am around in levels 1 to 3 LOL. Though in a sense when I started to put my money to gambling I would not stop even I profited a lot and ending not winning at all. Though I'm prepared not winning anything once I deposited my money into gambling. I only gamble with money I am prepared to lose since anything other than, I have something to make use of it.
This is one of the basic rules of gambling that put only that money on risk that you can lose. No need to bet on that which you cannot afford losing. In this way gambling does not lead to bankruptcy. Those who want to play safe and secure, they never ever go out of the way for making a bet. Im in the level 1-3 and level 4-6 because they have information in the first level that I do and also to the second level that I experienced .
I would be falling under level 0 maybe or say level 1 because I forget gambling when I am busy with work but I can relate to Level 1 because I when I am not doing anything I am gambling most of the time and I am a sports betting person so I don't feel I am addicted though.But before Im very addicted player because I use more money that I have and many money that I use is gone and not recover. Im very happy right now because I gain money in gambling and I hope to continue my luck.
But you are again going in the wrong direction it seems because look yes you are being lucky and winning which I good and I feel happy for you, but once you start loosing you will slowly come under severe levels of gambling. Since, you mentioned that you have been there where you gamble more than you could afford to so I can only suggest you to detach yourself from gambling once you win enough to satisfy yourself.

How could we consider those who are gambling not just because of earning money directly from the gambling site but is gambling because of beta testing a gambling site?
Because some people just like me, is gambling because of work such as here, I need to gamble to learn various ways of playing, at the same time, to figure out various gambling site so that I could share information and create contents for public. I usually share the knowledge from gambling here on our forum and I could classify myself to be included in the level 0 and level 1. This is because I haven't really taking gambling as a way to escape my boredom, and I haven't really lost allot in gambling. Just merely testing various sites and tell people how good or bad it is for me.

People have to take note that this level is just for reference.
The appropriate level should define as light-moderate-hard.
Take a look at Level 1. As per the OP, it's beginner's level which is actually NOT.

This is called being a responsible gambler even they are in the hard activity of their gambling experience. There are professional gamblers who already lost not just hundreds but thousands, but still on the game. They are still on their feet, still on their own, still on their good behaviour, even with lots of money loss.
Level 1 only im addicted but not gain or loss over $500. I view gambling as leisure and bet only what i afford to lose.
Will reach level 2 soon.
Will reach level 2 soon.
i am level 4-6 because i am allocating part of my monthly wage to gamble,but only maximum of 10% and nothing will excess.
in past yeah i can risk all of my Money but now that i am a family Man?No way that i will let them starve just because of my vices,and also i even stopped drinking liquor to prove this claim.
Lol. You are level 4-6 and you allocate 10% of the earnings for gambling. Trust me, if this continues, you will slowly be allocating 20%, 25%, 30% and so on. You will eventually become a gambling addict that will ruin your life. You are saying that you are "family man" now and you won't let your kids starve ever in your life, so you won't risk much gambling. But, snap back to reality. You will be using this "excuse" of not letting your family starve to gamble.in past yeah i can risk all of my Money but now that i am a family Man?No way that i will let them starve just because of my vices,and also i even stopped drinking liquor to prove this claim.
Stop before its too late. If you managed to stop drinking, you will manage to stop gambling for good.
It seems like if that's the level of gambling addiction, I'm still at the initial level of addiction. Because I am not too big gambling, but I have been happy to gamble 6 years ago until now. But I can still always control my desire to gamble.

I think to gamble, don't rely too much on the monthly wage even though it's only 10% but that much means a lot to your family. I only play gambling when there is more money or the results of this forum so I will occasionally play gambling also for my pleasure and want know how to gamble online, and therefore my wages will remain intact.
Playing gambling is average will not win, we always lose, especially just for fun.
