I agree that gambling should be fun, but for those who are addicted, it's really hard to control their mindset, although I would admit that I have been an addicted gambler myself, but it didn't crossed my mind to take my life because I lost everything.
I also witnessed crazy stories, friends and some gamblers I know committing suicide. But on the contrary, I know someone, a friend of my father who really live his life through gambling put all his children on good school, so it cut both ways, just saying.

Ever had of a story of people who committed suicide or attempted it because they lost funds which is huge to them. Most of the stories are made up but also some a true and real.
I would never tell anyone to stop gambling come to think of it I gamble also myself but I will Ask we should be guided while doing so to avoid unseen calamity.
How can you control your mindset while gambling, this is really not easy I must say you are drawn to playing it over and over again it doesn't matter if you are winning or losing
Set your target~ before a days gambling you should have in mind what you want to win or what you can afford to lose its easier send than done I know but with constant practice you might just develop the mindset.
Get engaged in other things~ other than this helping out it can also fetch you funds that can be used for gambling or any other uses.
Have time to enjoy your winnings~ I don't know if its also happens to anyone, when you you gamble
And you immediately win a sum that was above your expectations if this happens you can try enjoying your winnings and then latter come back
Your mindset can be controlled is only if you put in effort into it.
It isn't easy to quit on gambling but if anyone wants to do it they could do it little by little.I would never tell anyone to stop gambling come to think of it I gamble also myself but I will Ask we should be guided while doing so to avoid unseen calamity.

If it is already ruining their life then they should just stop and find other activity.
It isn't easy to control yourself when gambling your emotion is your greatest enemy we become greedy when we win and also wants to comeback right after we lose everything to gain it back and this is what we need to control.
It is quite tough to handle the situation specially when you are in state of straight losing. It takes for about a days, weeks just for the individual to imbibe the clarity of controlling mindset whenever you gamble. In addition, sometimes it is not about learning but to an individual itself who taught and mold by culture of having a good mindset and perspective towards life.

actually its not that simple because there's a need to become addiction first before finally reached the goal.but worth it because at least there is no need to committing suicide just to stop the addiction.
this is a great thread for other gamblers out there that struggling to defeat the lust of gambling each time.if they will only evaluate the meaning of your post.
No gambler is born to follow these rules from the day first. As it is always that case that Man learn with experience. When you gamble fearlessly and lose, only then we realize what mistake we did. I also learnt from my mistakes in gambling and now i am able to control myself but sometimes i also do mistakes even i have played gambling a lot. Its an always learning experience.
If you're seriously in the hole, just stay in the hole and live with it. Don't try to double-down and end up digging the hole twice as deep.
Gambling should be a fun game but all the fun are lost when you try to get greedy and coupe more than you bargained for. I would relate the "hole" in question to be the bottom lose one should be able to bear and when it's reached no point giving it a go there are high chances that you lose when you are on tension, your brains seems to be fixed anxiety sets in and you are pushed off balance. You can always call it a day and prepare for another day. In conclusion gamble responsibly Most of the gamblers are normally not that much mature in their mind as they mostly lose think that they cannot lose. Even i think same that i will win the game but this does not happen always.
A gambler has to make plan and control his game and if he does not do so, he will end up losing in gambling.

If we analyze, gambling isn't more harmful financially than watching a movie unless someone do it over limit.
Gambling is not a way to make money. It's short and simple, an entertainment. Just like movies.
Can watching movies pay your bills? Can watching movies make you a living? Can watching movies help you to stand and establish yourself in life?
Absolutely not.
Then, how is gambling causing much more harm than movies do?
Well, for movies, a person doesn't : 1) go out of limit to entertain himself. 2) uses emergency funds or funds which are important to get entertained. 3) doesn't take loans to entertain himself
But, for gambling, a person who's addicted will do all of the above. Causing disastrous problems.
If you consider gambling as a movie and apply the same expense on it, then surely it won't bite you much except for the little expense

Ever had of a story of people who committed suicide or attempted it because they lost funds which is huge to them. Most of the stories are made up but also some a true and real.
A story that was told to me second hand, which was absolutely real, was about a certified gambling junkie who liked to bet on everything. His family was constantly pissed at him because he was always gambling away all their money. One time after incurring some massive losses, he got a bookie to accept what he thought was a surefire bet on a high school football game, in order to offset the losses. (I didn't even know you could bet on high school football, but if you know the "right people," I guess...)
His team was winning all the way up until the end. They had the ball late in the 4th quarter, then there was some sort of fumble, the other team's defense got the ball and ran it in for a touchdown. He ended up losing, and killed himself later that night, not wanting to have to tell his family what happened. He was a fully grown man (45-50 years old) who committed suicide over a high school football game!
Don't know what the moral of the story is here other than don't get addicted!
I agree with OP's points and also add the obvious of don't gamble more than you can afford to lose. If you're seriously in the hole, just stay in the hole and live with it. Don't try to double-down and end up digging the hole twice as deep.
