I have read an article about why do people gamble, and one of the reasons is escapism, they tend to gamble to escape the reality of life. There is some person who gambles because of their problems from their friends, love ones, family and career, and one of their ways to escape those problems is to gamble.

The gambling environment can provide an escape from everyday life. Whether it be the glitzy casino environment, a loud and exciting amusement arcade, or even an online betting company, for the time that we are taking part we can be surrounded by different people, different sounds and emotions, all of which stimulate and arouse our senses.


Are you one of those people who gamble just to escape your problem? If you are one of them, I just wanna say that gamble will not solve your problem, yes you have escaped the problem but once you are done gambling the problem is still there and you still need to face it.

Gambling can also add to your problem, imagine if you already have a problem then you are also losing your money in gambling, what would you feel from that?   Grin
There are already gamblers who lost everything because of it, whenever you have a problem and you are still gambling you wouldn't think to quit because you want to the game and that is the time where you can lose everything in you.
