I feel so bother and that is why I decided to ask this question.

We keep talking about gambling addiction and how bad it is to become addicted, does it mean that addicted gamblers lose money all the time? Do you means those guys doesn't win anything at all? Can they not be lucky to win jackpots?

On this board, we are always referring addiction as a terrible thing but does it mean that those addicted gamblers doesn't win money, are they only bounded to losses upon losses?

Addiction isn't really about win or lose, it's about how much control they have over their wins and losses. For the fact addiction means they don't have any control over their actions so even if they win big still, they are going to continue and that time they might lose and this keeps on going in an endless loop.

I am remembering an internet story which is true though, someone who worked in garbage disposal won millions in lottery but after few years he came back to work again for the same work cause he lost all the money while gambling, irony though.

I can assure you that those who are gambling addicts will only experience defeat forever, those who are gambling addicts have no ability to control themselves, every time they have money, they will immediately use it for gambling capital even when their money runs out, they will create new debts to use as gambling capital, this is the reason why most gambling addicts always lose and will always lose, they will never make a profit when gambling.
I also somewhat agree with you that people addicted to gambling also have periods of falling into luck and winning but that is not the final stage in the gambling process, they prefer to end it more with pain when instead of trying to have another plan after winning, they are more proactive with gambling, whether it comes from consciousness or instinct, their depravity is limitless and from the victory achieved, they returned with enormous debt. Stopping at the winning stage, everything has no script behind it, but unfortunately, addicts have behaviors that are too special and difficult to understand in strange ways.

Usually yes they are losing terribly most of the time but they can't decide to quit easily since they already been hooked up on the site they are playing that's why other choose to have a professional help so they can getaway with their addiction.

Maybe some of those people win a lot  of money then it came unto their mind that they can do the same if they are consistent that's why we see a destructive behavior done for some people since what they think that their current activity made still fine and they can recover back their fund lost next time. Maybe learn from different opinion and try not to experience this situation. We can enjoy gambling without putting to much pressure on our selves and aim to have fun and not to became competitive for profits.

I see so many people talking about gambling and its addiction without having any idea or clue about what they are saying. Unless you are a gambler I would say that you wouldnt understand how easy it is to get addicted and keep losing. Asking this question is totally fine if you want to understand what actually happens in gambling.
First of all, the casino is a business designed for the owner to make money from gamblers, so logically you shouldn’t expect to win anything easily. The chances of winning something significant at the very start are less than 1%. Second, when you mentioned hitting the jackpot, you should know it is almost impossible in many casinos or slots that a new or regular gambler to get a chance for a huge jackpot, simply because the casino won’t spend a significant amount of their earnings on so many gamblers that just started gambling, most of the time the ones who hit jackpot have already lost bigger than that prize.

On the other hand, anyone can definitely experience a winning session sometimes, but the difference between a casual gambler and an addict is whether you know when to stop. Over the long term it is a sure thing that you will lose if you keep playing. Addicted gamblers may experience huge wins sometimes, but they never cash out or stop playing. They keep chasing more wins or the good feeling when they risk their money, and that my friend is called an adrenaline rush or excitement feeling. This feeling is as addictive as any other drug, and that’s why addicts always lose money in the long term.

If we really talk about the gambling addiction, then money is the least important thing that gambler looses. Besides money, he looses time and peoples trust in him. Or I can call it reputation also. That is something hard to build and easy to lose. Money can always be earned, addiction can be cured, but if a gambler has screwed up with someone, then it will very hard to regain trust. In addition people put tags on others. Hard to lose «addicted gambler tag». People will always have special attitude toward such person.

It's impossible if a gambler never won except they only gamble for one session and choose to completely avoid gambling.

Any gambler will win few times, but they will face lose more than win.

Using common sense, if someone never win in gambling, they will not become addicts because they view it as a way to lose money.

What make people become addicts because they ever win and the money can change their life, but they lose it all since they can't manage money and they try to gamble more.

Not necessarily all the time,but addiction to gambling often leads to frequent and substantial financial losses.The compulsive urge to gamble can drive individuals to wager money they can't afford to lose,resulting in a cycle of wins and losses that ultimately tilt heavily towards the latter.While occasional wins may offer temporary relief or reinforcement of the behavior,in the long run,addicted gamblers typically experience net losses due to their inability to control their impulses and make rational decisions about their gambling habits.These losses can have devastating financial consequences,exacerbating the addictive cycle and potentially leading to significant debt and other adverse outcomes.

No one loses every single bet in gambling and wins every single bet no matter how addicted or recreational he is.  Gambling results depend on luck, so those who have good luck will have more chances of winning and less chances of losing, and those who have bad luck will have less chances of winning and more losses. a gambler faces both sides.  No one just wins or just loses.  Gambling is conducted with both wins and losses

Addiction can be in both ways. You are keep winning and losing since both result can give you motivation to play further that cause addiction. You are lucky if you are addicted due to frequent winning and stop right on time tho.

Being addicted means you allocate most of your time on gambling. It’s either you are winning big time or losing gives you a negative impact to quality of life because you are always being greedy to earn money. No addiction is good because it means you are sacrificing something important just to focus on what you are doing.

Either your health, family, money and other aspect of your life is already sacrificed. That’s why it’s important to have a balance or moderate gambling.

These gamblers also won huge amount of money, but the problem why they tend to be addicted was due to uncontrollable habits. Several reasons was linked towards this problem, and it has been rising to the maximum tolerance where it became worst.
When their mindset is always winning, nothing will improve but the addiction kepts burning and became a recurring behavior and losing is likely to happen again and again.

I agree with you, Many gamblers experienced winning huge amount but because of wanting to earn more money or what we called "greed", they ended up losing more rather than winning, That's also one of the reason why a person having an obsession to gamble more and more because they want to regain those money that they've lost. We should keep in our mind that gambling is not all about winnings, it is much more of losing and how good you are when it comes to decision making and predictions.

Do imagine what a gambling addict will do after he wins the jackpot prize?
Of course, he will keep on playing until he loses it all again. There's no stopping them because all they want is to keep on playing without any end to it.
A gambling addict means he cannot control the urge to gamble over and over again. There's no rest. That's why this sickness is the most expensive type of bad habit in all kinds of habits. At least drugs will make a person so down that he won't be able to use them again for a day, alcoholics will make them drunk and sleep overnight. I am not saying they are good, just comparing the difference in the expense. A gambling addict could go all day and never rest until he is damn so sleepy that he cannot control his eyes anymore. Then, the next day he will do it again.
That's why they tend to lose money because there's no time to take long breaks after a win, worst of all, all they need now is down in front of their computer because of online gambling.
Of course, it’s terrible when a player can’t stop and plays every day with minimal breaks, but sooner and later this will come to an end. The player simply lives in the moment and does not want to predict what will happen to him in 3 days or a week. He has become a victim and wants absolutely nothing. I don’t know what to call it, but I would call it minimal interest in life mixed with enormous laziness and depression. I don’t want to tell him that everyone should help him get out of this, it’s extremely difficult, because until he himself wants it, nothing will help the addicted player. He needs to stop and understand that life is given to us once and time cannot be returned back, and if he does not stop doing this now, then his life will be of low quality and aimless.

I advise such players to think and study how the casino makes money, and not concentrate on the fact that he wants to win no matter what. After this, I advise you to watch a large number of interviews with addicts, it helped me a lot, because I looked at what this leads to and I see the same result for all addicts, these are debts. I want to say that a deep rethinking of the process is needed by the player himself, and not by anyone else.

I think that gambling addiction is fraught with more than just financial disadvantages. I think that any addiction, be it gambling, drugs, alcohol or something else, firstly, negatively affects your life. That is, falling into dependence a person ceases to be free. He stops thinking like a free person, all his thoughts are filled with gambling, his personal life fails because the person spends a lot of time and resources on his addiction.
Answering your question, I will say that it is possible that once upon a time people addicted to gambling win the jackpot, but if a person does not get rid of the addiction, then there is a high probability that he will leave all this money in the same casino.
Of course, it is worth noting that very few people win the jackpot; basically, all people with gambling problems suffer large financial losses

The odds for any casino game are in the casino's favor. This meansת that the more you gamble, the more the math works against you, and you end up losing your money.

Gambling addict do not only lose while they gamble, they make money too but they do not use the money that they have made wisely.  Gambling addict lose more time than they win because of their addiction. If they win, they will still continue to gamble and waste all the money and then they will have to start from the beginning and begin to gamble again. Gambling addict have a bad habit of not resting, if they lose they will decide to chase after their losses to want to win them back. Gambling addict are not disciplined, they do not care if they are winning or losing and since they do not keep records of their gambling activities they would not know when they are at lost. Gambling addict are the worst type of gamblers because they depend on gambling for money yet gambling is not giving them any money but they would not want to stop gambling.
Well, those you have mentioned are true, also from the question of the OP, to make it short, don't expect to win in gambling, or its better to say that its better to expect that you will lose in gambling than you will win, that's the reality of gambling because like that, even if a gambler will earn in his gambling its not sure that it can cover all the losses of that gambler unless he/she got a big jackpot, or in other scenario when a gambler win a huge amount of money, instead of using those money to pay debt or to start a business or more secure way of earning, they will use what they have won and eventually will lose it all, gambling is a cycle of losing money, if a gambler will not get out of that cycle or loop then expect that a gambler will not go anywhere.

In fact, if we talk about profit or loss in gambling, it depends on each person's luck. If the person is lucky in every game, whether he plays a few or a lot until he becomes addicted, he will definitely make a profit. Maybe my thinking that addicted people will only lose money all the time is because every gambling game is designed to provide a profit for the casino or gambling operator in the long run. For example, in games such as slot machines, roulette, or blackjack, there are probabilities determined such that in the long run, the casino will always make a profit. The more often someone plays, the more likely it is that their overall results will be closer to a loss. Moreover, most people lose in gambling, they definitely try to win back the losses by gambling more, and this can lead to even bigger losses.

Addicted gamblers do not lose all the time but their losses are more than their win and the reason behind this is that they aggressively or greedily decided to continue gambling Instead of thinking with an active mind.

There are also some responsible gamblers who gamble with great thoughts and they are hiding their feelings as they know that with using emotions they will lose more. In gambling one cannot reduce losses because there is no actual knowledge present that can help to put an accurate bet but one can overcome loss by not gambling all the time and use a fixed sum of it.

Actually, we can talk from another point of view regarding what you are asking about, but usually when we or the community discuss addiction and all kinds of things. This doesn't mean that someone always loses straight away in every betting session they do. It's just that most of us speak in general terms to make it shorter and easier for each other to understand. but if we talk in the scope of betting sessions, be it ordinary gamblers or even those who are addicted. It doesn't necessarily mean that they immediately lose in the betting session or game.

So like this, let's say you are betting or playing a casino game. the course of the game is not always as you say it is, at least ups and downs are something that usually happens in betting activities. Sometimes, when we play, luck is on our side and we get a big win. The problem is, an addict is more motivated to always remain active in a game or gamble. In the end, the money for winnings disappeared again. It is also possible that an addict can withdraw the money he earned from his winnings. whether it's winning Maxwin or even the jackpot.
The problem is, most addicts increasingly prioritize their gambling activities. In short, they make deposits again and again after getting big wins before. In the end, the money they earn goes back to the casino. Well, more or less like that, if anyone wants to correct or add to the points I conveyed, please do so.
