That mentality attracts more gambling-addicted people, as they think that after taking that win they will easily repeat getting it again, once they start failing, they will keep bringing more money, and that sad reality will take place, using money that is not supposedly intend for gambling and, worse, using money that reserve for important things but eventually being used when a person already loses his control.

Being responsible should be more on how you budget your money and your time, it's a must to put that limitation and avoid exceeding
on both sides, money and your time. If you can handle it properly, then you are safe not to go that deep with gambling.

Someone that is that desperate to gamble to the point of using money they cannot really afford to lose will definitely lose it and face that desperate situation, and this is because if they did this and they won, instead of thanking their good luck and never doing this again, the very next time they encounter the same situation they will once again bet that money away, after all if it worked once why it should not work twice? So eventually they will lose that money and find themselves in a terrible situation from which making a recovery is quite difficult.

We should not gamble with that money, which if lost, we will have to face big problems later. We should gamble with money we can afford to lose, because gambling is completely uncertain, if you borrow money from someone or gamble with your family's money, thinking that you will win the game and pay it back later, and  If that doesn't happen, if you lose this game, how do you pay that money back to your friend?  Or how to return that money to your family? As a result, you will be in great danger. So gamble with what you can afford to lose.

You are right about everything, but not about this highlighted part. If we want to help addicted gamblers accept responsibility for their behavior and get rid of their addiction, we must tell the truth. And the truth is that in games totally based on luck whether you are using only your emotions or or you're using cold calculation, it doesn't matter. You can in either case win or lose depending on luck. What matters is the strength of your character. A strong person can stop after a certain number of tries. Determine that number in advance and be strong.

If they can't accept that outcome of defeats, then expect them to push for more. It's a self-explanatory situation where you are alone to decide whether to stop and take your break after losing or you will follow your emotions, thinking that by adding more money the chance of recovering is possible.

If you fail to control yourself, expect that losing a lot will be the next thing that you will think and regret instead of enjoying your game.

If they cannot control their emotions, they will clearly be affected by whatever happens to them, and they will also lose their responsibility in gambling. Those who lose self-control and cannot be responsible with their money will only experience more and more losses, starting from small losses, which will lead to changing the amount of their bets to bigger bets, and ultimately, they will lose all their money. Without self-control and boundaries, someone will only get into big problems, which will get bigger if they are eager to win.

And they also won't be able to take responsibility for themselves, and over time, they will become addicted to gambling. So self-control is important so that we can avoid problems arising from gambling and will not experience gambling addiction.

Well it can also be done if they want to not know gambling, or to avoid gambling by turning off their cell phone or internet. But the other side of the cell phone has an important role at this time, right? unless they are not important people so maybe no one else will look for them through the cell phone. It's actually not a problem if they gamble, it's just that the problem is that they misinterpret gambling, and there are many who misinterpret gambling today.

Gambling that is easy today is becoming a small thing for everyone to do, even though this has a bad and dangerous impact, but there are still many people who do it, like cigarettes, right? even though cigarettes are clearly damaging to health, there are still many people who buy and consume them, yes even though smoking does make the mind sometimes a little calmer. So I think what they do if it doesn't harm other people is no problem if they are responsible for what they do.

It turns out that in order to stay away from gambling, the player needs to turn off the TV, the Internet and not go near his smartphone. This is not right, it’s as if someone wanted to quit smoking, but from all corners they were told in advertising how cool it is to smoke. Society should not go by increasing profits at the expense of other people's misfortunes, but by promoting a healthy lifestyle and kindness to each other, and should also promote good hobbies that occupy people's time and minds.

But the reality is that many addicted gamblers admit that they became so because they just had to make a couple of clicks to bet on sports. That's bad example of simplification of business.

True and it isnt really just that simply talking about gambling but also on other things as well on which you would really be that ending up on having those kind of possible problems
just because you had made out yourself with too much engagement and with that kind of excessive dealing up with things on which it isnt really that recommendable to be that way.
When dealing up with gambling then you should really be responsible specially on to your finances because if you do find yourself to be that impulsive then you are really that
prone into those decisions which arent supposed to be done in the first place. If you wont really be that mindful about into your decisions then you are really that
putting yourself on such trouble.

Because gambling is being crowded in all circles of society and is also supported by the existence of online gambling at this time, making gambling easier for all people to access. Also with today's society cannot be far from their cellphones or gadgets, making it easy for them to get to know gambling, just by looking at the advertisements can make someone interested because maybe the advertisements are interesting so that they can make that person do gambling. Not only on movie sites, even as far as I know in all things related to the internet there must be gambling advertisements, because gambling companies also want a lot of profit, therefore they hold inline gambling that can be accessed by everyone without having to go to a physical casino.

It's okay if someone is interested in gambling, as long as they can play responsibly, not like many gamblers today who gamble by eliminating many other activities that are more useful and more important just because of gambling, some even fight with their families because they are addicted to gambling, This is not recommended. So if you really want to gamble, don't forget the responsibility for other things.

Excess of anything is not good, the body needs sweets but due to excessive consumption of those sweets, excess glucose level in our blood occurs which is a very serious disease for our body. Exercising is good for the body but not too much. Sometimes too much gym leads to death. When something goes beyond what is normal, we must understand that it is a very bad thing for us. It is fine to gamble properly but when a gambler gets addicted to excessive gambling, this gambling is a very harmful thing for him. When it comes to gambling, a gambler must be responsible because if he is not responsible, he will make decisions using only his emotions and lose one after another. New members who are new members should not be so focused on gambling in the beginning, if a member loses one or two bets in the beginning then he should stop gambling at that time and later on he should work on his mistakes and gamble again. 

Difficult if you are not dealing on it the right way, I mean if your emotions dominates a lot the chance of losing everything is not by far, always remember that each time you deposit your money the chance of losing everything is always behind, without proper control and without proper preparation and limitation, there's a big chance that you'll going to keep playing with more money to lose.

It's your anticipation and set limitation that will lead you to a much safer gambling. Without it you are always prone to lose more.

That means they should try to learn to set a budget limit for gambling because it is in their best interest so that they don't use up all their money. If they can control themselves in gambling, they will not experience as many losses as many other gamblers have experienced. This is important always to practice because we don't know when our self-control will be well maintained and when our self-control will start to fade. And if our self-control starts to fade, maybe we can stop gambling for a while while we recover and regulate our self-control. That's where we try to gamble responsibly and will only use a little money to gamble. However, there are still many gamblers who end up losing self-control because they are still tempted by the many things in the casino, so they deposit more money to be able to make money. They must be aware that it will definitely be difficult to obtain it.

The gamblers that you said, by borrowing money from their friends, will not win either, and their friends,  if they know that they borrowed money to gamble, I think it is likely that their friends will not give them the money, Apart from that, those who gamble use their daily budget for gambling, this can be confirmed that they cannot be responsible for what they should do, because they have used their daily budget for gambling.

At least if they want to gamble they should be able to set a budget limit for gambling, because if there is no budget limit set, it is likely that they will not stop until they run out of all their money. It is good that they can control themselves so that unwanted things do not happen such as losing a lot of money just because of gambling.
For those who are stubborn, it may be difficult to accept input and advice, but the possibility of advice and input from their own parents can make them realize and can make them stop for a moment from gambling that harms them. Also don't let them take the wrong actions such as borrowing money just to gamble, later they will be in trouble because of debt which I can clearly make sure they will not be in debt for only a small amount.

I would even say that gambling is becoming too common. I can't imagine how hard it is for those who want to stop playing them and quit them. Here are examples: I go to a site with free films, and at the beginning of the film I am greeted by an insert advertising an online casino, I watch streamers, everyone is sold to the casino and advertises gambling. But the worst thing is that I turn on state TV during prime time (in the evening) and even there is advertising for betting!

With gambling becoming more and more common along with the impact of gambling itself I think some people or most people already know about what actions they should take for prevention as you said by doing or implementing money management and also by limiting the time of involvement in gambling, but on the other hand I would say that "doing is not as easy as saying", that is the main problem, so even if they have brought some plans as you said it always cannot rule out the possibility that they will easily break it.

Honestly, I'm not saying that the advice you gave is useless, it's good and can even be very useful to help gamblers avoid bigger losses, but I think the problem here is the wrong mindset and expectations. For the matter of expectations and mindset is quite difficult to change and maybe what can change it is a bad experience in gambling, I mean I think some restrictions will be able to apply if they have experienced a big enough downturn that can make them realize a little bit that everything they think is wrong with gambling.

In this case, if anyone is gambling for fun, I see no reason why the person should be seen as irresponsible, after all, he knows his mission in the gambling house, so let him have the fun. But the reverse is the case most times, you might believe that having fun in gambling is the reason why many lose control but it's not, it is simply because they are either incompetent about gambling by not knowing the rudiments of it or they are just reckless and want to gamble for whatever purpose of concern, and they lose control.

Some are solely desperate to gamble and make money through it, but they lose control and got to lose more money until they have nothing left to play with. Also, if it's about fun as you guys claimed, I don't think that someone would want to make fun without having the budgeted amount for it. Why is it in many cases that the money available for gambling will not be enough and the gambler reaches out for extra money? I think that people who primarily gamble are not doing that for fun, except for a few and the few always use the money that will not harm them for it should in case they lose it to their betting activities. This is unlike how most gamblers are doing it.

Money management is very crucial when one is gambling. If you don't separate your gambling money from your portfolio money you are gonna be in a big problem. You won't realize when you lost everything you had. With money management comes another perk which is knowing your limits. One should be able to make up their gambling activity in a fixed limit. Many gamblers are not that rich. So they have limited capital. To minimize the risk they should always keep their budget within a certain limits. Lastly being responsible which is true for all. If one is reckless when he gambles, there is no hope for him. He is sure to loose with or without a proper money management or limits.

That is why we have to be really careful when gambling and have good self-control so we don't end up in big danger. By being responsible when gambling, you can enjoy gambling as it should and don't need to worry about any problems. But it would be better if we could have other activities besides gambling activities to help control ourselves so we can prevent thoughts that invite us to return to gambling more often.

Yes, I agree with you to always set limits when gambling because this is to avoid excessive use of money in gambling. Apart from that, with these restrictions, we can practice discipline in how we use our money. With everything we do in gambling, we can avoid problems that can arise and also don't need to worry about gambling addiction because we can still control ourselves well.

It is difficult to control if we have money, but we still have to exercise it because it is for our own good. By trying to continue practicing it, we will not be tempted by promotions or anything else because we know that when gambling, we have to be wise in using our money. Experienced gamblers should know more about this and will not try to gamble excessively. But unfortunately, they still try to get a win and deposit more money so they can play longer in the hope of winning some more money. If they realize that gambling is not a place to make money, they will only gamble in moderation and will not let themselves be tempted by the many gambling games or promotions they see in casinos.

If they can accept the results of gambling and have no desire to chase wins or recover their losses, they will not have any problems. They can use small money to bet because it will be safer for them, so they can avoid the big losses that other gamblers have experienced. However, I agree with you that many gamblers are stubborn in gambling who ignore their losses, and it is clear that they have run out of money but instead borrow money from other people. That will obviously cause problems for them because they will definitely have difficulty getting their money back if they lose at gambling. Even though they have a chance to win, it will not always guarantee that they will win because winning from gambling is very rare. And we may have seen for ourselves the results we get from playing gambling for some time. That is why we must be responsible when gambling and not use more money so that we can also avoid losing a lot.

To gamble responsibly, we need to set up rules for ourselves. The first thing is not to gamble with money necessary for our daily needs. This must be surplus money. We are willing to lose that money. And need to set limits on how much you can gamble. The second thing is to arrange reasonable gambling time and keep the set rules. The third thing is to never borrow money to gamble, you will get into big trouble. And lastly, you need to know when to stop, whether you win or lose.
