You just have no know when to stop gambling, if lose chances are 2 times bigger than win ones, i wouldin't risk to play
If you really can't stop on your own, you really need to get help. For me, I can't look at gambling as a way to get rich, or recover loses, it's merely a form of entertainment. I'll pay $10 to play cards for a couple hours, just like someone else might pay $10 to go to the movies.
I know you have a problem with gambling.
But I think the fact also is yourself.
Because I think it's very tempting to always gamble.
Its funny what is defined as gambling as well,people that play the stocks are not gambling they are speculating. 
To make money you need to risk it in some form or another or you stay in the same bracket for life.
This is not a endorsement for gambling either.

A lot of people have gambling problems.
They lose all their money and family because of it.
I think you don't have to gamble at all or gamble with low bets for fun.

Where I live I am hit up when ever I watch the news about how a government sponsered lottery is helping give back to the community. If they where giving back its on the backs of the every day person that gets caught up in gambling. Think they bring in millions and reserve maybe 100K for trouble gamblers.
The give back aspect is really just the gamblers building these public buidlings,it makes me sick.

Yeah, absolutely... And there are plenty of resources that helps you along the way. Gamblers anonymous is a huge one, and they will probably try to help you pick up a hobby, maybe find a new/refound spirituality if you deem it fit for you, etc. Just know that people that have these problems are not alone, as it is pretty evident, that even in a small group of nerds that frequent this forum have their own gambling problems. If you have history of addiction in your family, you might have this disease, it's not anything to be sad about though.
It's frustrating that you wanna earn back your loses. Have lost with that enough to understand your winnings can't cover the loses .
A lot of people got a problem with gambling, gambling is very addicting because you can simple win money fast. Too many people think its easy to win by gambling but its just the opposite of that.
The psychological effect of winning the jackpot is big and as pointed out by psychologist BF Skinner. this only reinforces to gamble. Casinos are very appealing to our reptilian brains.
In gambling usually the problems start with loosing our complete bankroll. When we face small losses, we never loose hope on making profits. But getting wiped out of all our investment is a really problematic situation for all the gamblers.
Everyone has a gambling problem if you're going to smoke.
But it is also above all to yourself. You should be able to control yourself, I guess.
Otherwise you lose so much money.

after a few days, I realized, a problem commonly found in gamblers is the difficulty they stop playing, even much of a gambler who does not want to gamble, but in the end they play back. This may result in the absence of other activities to do so triggers the person back gambling

Many people have a gambling problem, its not so easy to stop as people are saying on this forum. Its pretty hard, the most already lost a lot and are to far away to stop because the invested so much.
Yes stopping gambling just after the profits or after a huge loss both were not possible for myself too. Because out of greed, I did not want to quit gambling after a profit. Same time I want to recover my losses so I never thought about stopping gambling after losses.
if u guys find that hard, it's time to use some professional help. we do our best to give advice, but none of us are professional.
