I think it is very important to clarify that for people addicted to gambling, their objective is not to win a lot of money and then stop gambling, they simply cannot stop gambling, so if, for example, tomorrow a person becomes addicted to gambling of chance managed to win a lot of money, something like 5 million US dollars, this person addicted to gambling would spend the entire 5 million US dollars on gambling until he would lose everything, then he would sell everything he had, borrow money and also steal money from other people
This is because, as I said, they cannot stop playing, they have lost control of themselves, and that is why addiction is considered a very terrible disease. because it is a psychological illness it becomes something much more dangerous, look at all the psychological illnesses, how many of them can be easily cured, none. All psychological illnesses are difficult to cure, and addiction is something very destructive
Curiosity, addiction as well as satisfaction and pleasure in winning, this is what is actually on the minds of gambling addicts so that they will continue to make bet after bet even though they have succeeded in getting big wins or consecutive losses.
Apart from that, there are other attitudes such as greed and efforts to recover losses, if all of this becomes one with the problem of gambling addiction, it is not only money that will be lost but also the direction to live normally, mental health and also affect the level of quality of human thinking power.
There are many bad impacts of gambling addiction which are even more dangerous than alcohol addiction.
I think gambling addict will be the same as drug addict where they will live their lives just to be able to satisfy their desires for this activity.
Percentage of recovery for really serious gambling addiction will be very difficult to cure because the addicts have had far more problems, but it is still possible to reduce the intensity of gambling activities.
Everything will return to the consciousness of an addict and of course only themselves will be able to control and cure it because several other methods are only small intermediaries that will help in the healing process.
