I also feel that, learning based on experience in disorder in controlling myself in gambling will bring maturity and play responsibly that obeys the limits. But indeed in realizing this person needs time, sooner or later in realizing it depends on our knowledge and the environment which is very helpful not to do excessive gambling.
The pleasure in gambling is indeed I admit to eliminating stress, but sometimes people who vent it on gambling will have a negative impact on financial and make us get bigger stress due to losses, hope of that possibility will make us a deeper.
Although we are aware of the awareness of gambling responsibly, someone who has a bad mentality will have a bad output in his decision.

We need that for sure, every learning that based on our actual experienced will help us to play with full responsibility, it will let us to avoid making huge mistakes in forcing our way to win a lot but more on the side of being entertained and try to win some if luck permits us to take some amount from the house, while if we lose we better to have that limitations, certain amount that can be let go and treat as part of your entertainment.

As there's always a big chance that without proper limitation, you will lose a lot of money, instead of enjoying it will bring a huge amount of stress, especially when you lose a big amount that will affect you financially.

Addiction always result to those things that we love to do as a result of long time continuity which might have made us to be accustomed to it. What ever what we are gambling, it does not necessarily mean that we are going to be use real money to make the bet. There are bets that we don't even need a real money for us to make the bet. We can use anything to make bets and make winnings whether in fiat of just the normal thing we use to gambler and make the winnings. Gambling addiction is something that can be dealt with in a way that would not have much effects.

I'm conflicted about gambling, to be honest. Fun and exciting hobby? Absolutely. Addicting, ravaging beast? No doubt about it.

The key ingredients are moderation and equilibrium. Enjoy everything, but don't get carried away, and you'll have a great time.

There is a nasty side to gambling, so be careful. Avoid drug use and its terrible repercussions. Establish spending limits and get help if you find yourself slipping.

Gambling is like a sword with two edges. Everyone has to make their own exciting, sometimes dangerous decisions.

Addiction is a really bad sickness I tell you, and it's not limited to gambling addiction alone, all forms of addiction is something we all should avoid..
I could also relate to having seen gambling addiction destroy a close friend of mine, he was the one that introduced me to gambling, but me being very conservative with things like this, I was very careful from the beginning..
My friend gambled, wasted not just money, but time and resources, until his wife, out of anger and his refusal to change, left him, and took his son with her, it was a really bad experience for me, but I don't know if he really see it that way as he claimed, cus even till now, he hasnt stopped gambling like before.

Sometimes people are not entirely receptive when they have a problem, just tell a normal person that they are not a player and if they have problems, well, if a psychologist is recommended,they can get upset, because they will say who this is to tell me something so, or what do you think? so things are sometimes very delicate, and for this reason a friend who is addicted to gambling must be very attentive and delicate to tell him things, so that he does not react badly, this is something that has a lot to do with it with his personality and Knowing how to say things so that the help sees it as something good.

I think something, when we play we have to apply everything we know and what we have learned throughout our financial education, at no time under any type of advice when we read about the economy recommend playing in casinos and trusting in Bitcoin, they only teach operate safely, in the stock market and play little just for fun, this is important,because each person has a concept of games, betting, and it is difficult to get into the head of a novice who has to first see that the casino is not to become a millionaire or ocmo work but Understand that it is a means of Entertainment where you must control.

Gambling addicts like that are more able to stop because of support from the family environment. Likewise, when all capital is used up, assets are finally drained because of stupidity when they can't control themselves when playing.
luckily and i hope i will never be like that. I limit myself because before I really saw for myself how my brother was also destroyed because of gambling addiction. We can take lessons from other people's experiences without having to experience it ourselves. and it's good for everyone.

Those kind of people are called a gambling addict. I've been through there and my life is really messed up back then. Even if you are a gambling addict, treating it as a primary source of income is crazy. A gambler should have at least one source of income to continue the addiction they have. Having none is just like throwing up your life by getting others money just to gamble. A friend or family can help in reducing a gambling activities but it will all depends on the person. As I said I've been there an I received help before from my friends by diverting me but that doesn't stop me until I realized that myself. Don't get me wrong, the support of my friends really helped me realized it that made me change. I guess realizing it by yourself is a new level of matureness that can be earned as an ex-addict.

usually, instead of playing for fun/entertainment, players take it to the next level and become unreasonably serious about gambling, while i don't really recommend making it as your primary source of income, we cannot deny the fact that there are few people who will do this and a few that changed their lives into something good by playing. sometimes people forget that it was only made for fun and the stress that has been accumulated throughout every game can lead them to something they didn't want to initially such as the things listed by the OP.

i somehow agree with you that one of the best medications for those gamblers is to let them understand that they could no longer regain what they had lost, and if there's a chance they can, it will be all depending on their luck. they should also realize that once they enter the pit they will have a hard time climbing up again, and after telling them that they needed to be slowly separated to that hobby or find another hobby to take up their time slowly just like withdrawal methods for those who are under rehabilitation, but still that depends on the very person if they really wanted to still be able to change their life although things are no longer the same. in the end it is only a matter of how those people can accept the reality they put themselves into.

Exactly the point, you can't just direct them with words but an action is needed to divert their attentions, if the person is very
close to you, then you must find a good way to divert his attentions,.

Putting him in a place where he can avoid some time playing / gambling and give him some breathing to think the right way, best time to have
some serious conversation and give him some hints that he's already getting engage that much.

A good start to bring him back to reality in life and also to allow him to balance his gambling activities and be reasonable in terms of spending
time and money when playing the game.

Wanting to be something great in life isn't a bad thing, and you may be even hoping to get it through gambling, through poker, like several great people we know, or even through slots, if you want. The key is to not lose more than you can afford to lose in the process. You shouldn't think that after many fails you are bound to succeed. That's not how gambling works.

That's right, such people should always have someone by their side who can divert their mind whenever they want to gamble and that one person can be a best friend, a spouse, a sibling, or even a parent. The person who is addicted will surely not be able to control the urge themselves but if there is someone available with them to accompany them, that might change their mind.

You can't take an addict out of their addiction simply by saying that they shouldn't do what they are addicted to, but you will need to find ways that can divert their mind and engages them in something else and that might help them gain some control.

If anyone is chasing losses, it is the first sign that the person is becoming addicted. This can be found in new gamblers as they are not having experience yet about what gambling can do to them. They will believe more in luck and they are not playing for fun but to win. When someone can lose more money is when the person is chasing losses, both in gambling and trading. Gambling should just be for fun, not a way of making money. If a bet is not won, the gambler should just forget about it and not think about recovering the losses.

This is what we called Greediness mate , look at that attitude , you already lose something and you will chase it again specially in gambling when you can just let it go for a while and return in the coming days to resume playing and check your luck is present? no i will never have this belief in chasing my losses instead will use my funds limiting my gaming time.

This means that it is the gambling addicts themselves who have to pay attention to themselves to recover from gambling addiction. If they are unaware of gambling addiction or see the effects it can have on other people, they will never realize it.

And most gambling gamblers will not be able to see it. They need someone else to awaken them. But unfortunately, even though other people had warned him about his gambling addiction, they completely ignored him and continued gambling.

Setting a bankroll and having self-control and responsibility will be a great escort for anyone who gambles because they can safely play gambling and not have to think about having gambling addiction problems in the long term. They can still play gambling responsibly and can even stop whenever they want.

Each person has his own way of controlling himself so that he is not addicted to gambling. And restrictions like that are really needed by every gambler, especially beginners who don't have much experience in gambling. They are very vulnerable to gambling addiction and it doesn't seem like it will take long for them to become addicted. That is why everyone who wants to gamble must have self-control and money restrictions not to cross these limits.

It is like having a proper discipline like you, it may be easy to say to yourself that the deposit money is kind of going to not be back on you, but to others they think to earn more, which is where the problem starts, because when it comes to gamblers, people always think of winning and the money they won, they don't think about the money they put into it. That is why others borrow money just to gamble and they think that they can win it back, which we should think the opposite of.

I agree there are some luck base games and it only takes luck to win them just like the dice that you mentioned but even at that, there is still space and place for skills and techniques in rolling the dice accurately even though it relies higher on luck.

But if you based your gambling activities and outcome on luck, and gamble excessively the chances are, you will lose continuously because luck will not be on your side all the time so you need to have a mechanism and formula to follow and how to take profits when you win.

I think that among all the people who gamble, sometimes there are people who are lucky in gambling a little bit more than the average luck of the players.  And accordingly, there are people who, on the contrary, have much more losses.  These are all elements of probability, of course, because I'm talking about games with an algorithm and provable fairness.  Knowledge and experience are of great importance in the case of intellectual games or sports betting in a number of cases.  But I want to note that not only the player himself tries to play there and in those games where she wins due to her knowledge and intelligence.  But such games or bets themselves seem to attract this player, urging him to play more and more.  And even more.  It's a little mystical, but that's how it is. 

And there are always lucky players even in such a game as dice, and I think many of you have come across such lucky ones in your life.  But life is fair.  And usually such people are unlucky in other areas of life, in love, friendship, good work, and so on.
