One of my friend ended up like this. Gamblers always have the idea that they have to get back what they lost from gambling itself again and again getting loan. He now have repay the gambling loan with his next 3 month salary only.

These kinds of gamblers want to become rich fast and they don't want to work hard for it instead want to find high-risk shortcuts like gambling. They also know that they are taking lot risk before taking a loan for gambling but they can't control their addiction so they go for it. Gambling actually meant only for entertainment but we all use it wrongly to earn fast money.

Maybe others can help like relatives, friends, doctors, etc. but the only one that can really help you is none other than yourself. No matter what and how many encouragement they say, in the end, it's up to you. Depends on your dedication or determination.

Many people who gets addicted to something have some underlying psychological problem and even problems with other

addictions. {smoking & alcohol} and if you look even deeper you will find that these people are knee deep into debt. You get

dedicated "smoking" gambling areas and free alcohol in some of our casinos that are targeted at these people. They know that

drunk people make poor financial decisions and that is why they feed them FREE alcohol. If you have a problem, then you

should just stay away from the temptations that these sites offer you. The Brick n Mortar casinos over here have a service

where you can ban yourself, if you cannot control your addiction, which the online casinos does not have. {They will use very

sophisticated CCTV systems to identify gamblers that banned themselves and then you will be turned away at the doors}  Grin

So online gambling is actually the biggest problems for these people, because they turn to online gambling if they cannot get

back into Brick n Mortar casinos.  Sad

1st thing 1st , people should know that gambling addiction is a disease such as any other form of addiction and is curable .
As a former addicted gambler , i believe that addiction begins when you think about gambling the 1st thing in the morning after waking up , you don't think about studying/working/family/girlfriend .. no , you'll be thinking what games you'll bet on today and how much did you lost yesterday and how are you going to win it back.
How does it stop ? well , it depends on your self confidence and what you're made of , because taking such a decision and achieving it are two different things because you'll be constantly and continuously fighting temptations and you'll feel as if you were being strangled or deprived from air ..
The key to succeed in quitting gambling ? Strong will and good family/friends around you , medical care in the most extreme situations is also a solution .
Just to add as well, if you really wanted to quit, it should start from inside of you, admit it to yourself that indeed you are addiction and the second step is that admit it you needed help to finally stop this disease or addiction. Everyone has an addiction but it will really take a lot of mental discipline to really put a end into it. What if you are susceptible because that how your environment is in this first place. You need to have that mental toughness not to get tempted again to put that bet and get suckered around. I don't know about the mental care though, I don't think it will be effective as controlling and managing your demons inside of you.

Long enough time for someone to go back to a better life and avoid all the gambling games that have been considered highly addictive, it is indispensable for someone's advice but in direct interaction can at least control every activity and also can avoid in gambling, it is very difficult to make someone thinks, but they only think for a moment and the next few days will repeat things like that again.
No one else could help a person that already addicted to gambling. It is better to avoid gambling if in a latter end no control at all. A person should have a goal and determined to achieve the goal that can able to succeed in life.

If we know someone who is already addicted in gambling, we can really help them in fact they really need someone to help them. Gambling is a game of fun but sometimes people are tend to be more greedy and they ended up broke, its not too late to change and do better things don't give up on someone you know that is addicted in gambling help them out of gambling. We should really control our emotion, and don't be greedy when we gamble, just know the reason why you are doing that.

I don’t think the same as you are thinking because there are doctors or psychiatrists present in this world who are for the insistence of these gambling addicts. No doubt that it is better for the gambler to leave gambling before it becomes an addiction for him because at that time, it would be like impossible to cure his disease and it can also happen that he would end up with this.

Even seriously addicted people can also be recovered from addictions by medicine and lot of care from others,mostly addiction comes when we are in alone so we concentrating on to something very deeply causes the addiction.In gambling addiction the consequences are danger because it involves money o our wealth can be eaten in no time so first if someone realize that he is addicted then he need to see the medical help to complete recovery from those addiction.

That’s the thing, they begin to gamble more and more on the hope that they are going to eventually retrieve all their previous losses but they just keep on losing and losing.
Losing and losing you are right because of gambling not build by the dev for always winning, seldom of being gamblers we can be called very lucky almost are getting lost because of unlucky. So, while earlier avoid this gambling or just control your self through this gambling.
For me getting a loan just to gamble is not right, remember just gambled that you can afford to lose in your wallet, not all your fund.
That was so right. It is not like a gambler has to just fight against his luck but he has one more opponent, the house. Whether it is an online or land based casinos, gamblers are cheated by the owners and I don’t condemn it because this is how a business is supposed to be done. Expecting to get money out of casinos while making all the customers happy won’t generate any revenue or a little one.

The sign of gambling addiction if people can't control themself to play gambling even if no extra money
Difficult to stop gambling addiction is almost the same with drug addict need the family support to stop the gambling addicting, one of the best way to stop is focus to other activities specially family gathering bonding until they forget it.
All these indications are really absurd. We have to stop those people to get themselves ruined. And an important thing is, they aren’t only to get devastated rather everyone who is attached to them are equally disturbed and problematic. These gamblers have to think over it. They must not be indulging themselves in gambling just to earn this fake money. Keep yourself respectable.

For me it started because of my neighbors when I was living on rent. They introduced me to this but now I am over it.

One should be cautious about the money being spent in online gambling. It should also be in limit and you should not spend more than 5-10% of monthly income on this. You should not use the money allocated for other important works like household expenses and avoid taking a loan for gambling.

This is the sign which clearly shows that the person has now become a gambling addict. There is nothing more dangerous for the person himself than to become a gambler because once he would become a gambling addict, his whole life would be destroyed same like the dry wood is destroyed in fire and soon turned into ashes. They properly need counseling to stop their addiction.

Just sad though to hear your story about your uncle and we understand your eagerness to help the community. I for one have witnessed it a lot when I was still young with my close relatives as well and its not really good. So I personally appreciate your efforts. However, stopping gambling must come to one self and its difficult to really help someone if they themselves doesn't want to admit the problem in the first place. The most important thing is to admit it to ourselves and I'm sure that quitting will be an easy task. It might take years but with the support of our family we can achieved it.

Good thing that you have mentioned "start changing your self". I can relate to this topic since I was once a gambling addict. I have spent every dime I have just to gamble. I stopped going to casino's to stop gambling but that didn't work because I found a gambling website so I am just gambling at home. It was hard to resist the temptation so you have to be determined that you need to stop gambling. After that, ask yourself on what good it will do if you stopped gambling. Try doing that and it will help you guys a lot.
