If you are lonely, can you have interest in gambling simply because of your loneliness?
When you are alone, you will have nothing to do and the only thing which you have easy access to is online gambling at the comfort of your residence. Without having to go anywhere, just log in to the gambling site and you can play all sorts of gambling is the only thing which a lonely person may think to get himself engaged and get himself busy.
I think that loneliness may be one reason among many others, why would anyone become addicted to gambling? If anyone is lonely he should try to get himself busy somewhere or with family or friends, else, it may be too late and he may become the victim of gambling addiction.
Loneliness definitely has a negative effect on a person especially those who are lonely in the family have a very different mindset and outlook than those who spend time with friends in the family. Moreover, another important point is that loneliness is linked to bad activities like online gambling and drug addiction.
