I don't consider it an addiction unless it severely affects the person's health. Look at howmany people drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes, that is much worse than gambling. Gambling you are only going to lose money but it's not like you are going to do severe damage to your body like the latter.
Gambling can also damage our mind, thinking always about bitcoin and can also lose our emotions and control, addiction is really a bad habit even in gambling. We can lose money and at the same time, lose our control in mind and emotion, so that's just not only one problem when we get addicted in gambling, so don't be calm when it comes in gambling, although gambling also has a benefit if we win in a game. Don't forget that it still has a bad effect if we can't control and limit ourselves.

Well if one drink alcohol or is in a habit of smoking, the adverse effect of it will be slowly and steady. There will be no monetary loss in it and whatever is lost by these habits is health which normally is overlooked by humans.

It is true that experiencing gambling addiction will not destroy everything, in fact we may lose the money we have. For me, applying oneself to addiction must start from ourselves, don't ever overdo it because in any case, when we are excessive, we will get poor results. Playing gambling is not a bad thing, for me there are many benefits that we can get namely we can be smarter in financial management, we must be able to choose what is necessary and what is not necessary. Addiction can we treat, treat addiction must be from yourself !!!

still loss in the long run because that greediness is inside you. When you are addicted your mission is almost impossible, so you will likely fail.

I think if someone is addicted to gambling, other people will know because that person will only spend his time playing gambling. And that person will tell him to stop from gambling, and if that person really cares with him, then he will help him to find a solution. So it will need a big effort from him to do many things to prevent or stop his habit of playing gambling while he can search the other activity to prevent his mind from thinking about gambling.
I'm not sure how you would know how a person spends his time unless he/she updates you on what he is doing or you are really close. I think those who are considered family would be the ones to help and care for him. They are the ones who would go the lengths to help the addict. It wouldn't be easy but still, it counts.Addiction in gambling is very difficult to remove unless if you have another addiction such playing basket ball or online games which can help you easily to forget those things. But it's just a temporary in my opinion because once your mind became free you will thingking of it every time , keep your mind as well to alway ignore it and read some books instead to relax your mind set. Or take awalk out side in your house and fell the fresh air of our nature. Lol
I think a person wouldn't be capable of being an addict with two things, it would either be one and that's it. It's like defeating its purpose because a person cannot spend it both or something. Maybe you meant by replacing the first addiction and making a second one. That wouldn't help, wouldn't it?I don't consider it an addiction unless it severely affects the person's health. Look at howmany people drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes, that is much worse than gambling.

You got the point with that because when someone ignores their health, it's not a good sign. I agree with how people are addicted to different kinds of vices. What I don't like about smoking is that it even affects other people that surround them. It's not a good thing.

Getting addicted with gambling is really hard but the best solution for that problem is to help ourselves with that addiction, no one can control us except ourselves, we must accept that once we are addicted, we must claim it that we are already addicted because sometimes people doesn't want to tell themselves that they are already addicted so that, they don't make any solutions on that problem. Let's face the reality.
Actually those who are not addicted to gambling, feel the person who plays gambling often is addicted to it but this may not be the case. Some people are very moody and playing gambling is their hobby. So if a person performs same task again and again, we should not be so mean to call them addicted.

People used to call the gambling psychological phenomenon. Many people involved gamble without giving it much thought, most people consistently lose their thinking ability incases survive in a long run. Busy in real life business could be turning point.

Such a case of chronic addiction. He probably is a wealthy gamblers who had nothing better spend his money on. I wonder how people like that would handle the situation if they end up not winning.
Its hard for them to accept that but for sure if they are strong enough they can handle that well and over a year they will be better. This is a story that we should learn also, don’t just make comments because you can also apply this on your gambling activities.

That’s probably the most closest thing we can say but we cannot verify. If he really is just having some fun with his money, might as well give it. Well, maybe he deserves it but who knows if he can handle losing. Maybe he is still staying there just because he is continually losing? I think even addicts has some stop mechanism for a time before continuing their addictions. I don’t know.

Its your inner feeling and strength on how you feel about the gambling addiction. In case you made up your mind that you are addicted and you heard examples that those wo are addicted to gambling can never ever recover their loss. This makes to stubborn and even if you have ability to quit gambling , you will not only because of negative thoughts all around.
We bring our own life and so, we only be the one that can stop from addiction.
I am addicted, but not in gambling, I am addicted watching series on Youtube before but I agree that it can also be applied when we are addicted in gambling, it is also the same when we get addicted, we are losing time with our daily routine with our lives.
There are big advantages of getting addicted to some other thing except gambling because you will not be spending/losing big amount of money with other addictions unlike gambling. Addictions may happen with anything which are making us to stick with them. But, I believe things which are not injurious to our health and wealth, those addictions would not be considered as dangerous as how we are dealing against gambling addictions. Still, if you consider time is money then all type of addictions are coming into same category.not good if you spend it only on gambling or just watching youtube. there are a lot of important things you have to do

Well said, technology doesn't have any role to do with providing of food. As in the quote technology is the one that makes people lazier, at the same time it is the one that makes everything accessible to the growing population. Generations ago people lived without depending on technology, but right now the same isn't possible as the population at that period and the present has got a big difference.
That's not what I meant with my previous post, but I will agree on with what you are saying. But with technology, it made life more comfortable and efficient with the production of food. There is a big difference between the present and the past. I notice everyone who I ride in a public utility vehicle just on their phones, and I'm also guilty. I'm not sure how it could be solved, but it would be hard because people are dependent. Well said, technology doesn't have any role to do with providing of food.
