Very necessary that others also implement that they should not be addicted to gambling as it has many negative effects in or body which can be read on this forum in this section where people have lost so much money, how their relationships effect due to gambling addiction etc.
 

If i'm addicted to a gambling... probably I can't help myself since i'm already addicted to it I probably needed some help from my family or maybe a specialist. But maybe if I lose all my money to gambling there are 2 might happened:

1. Whenever I have money I do gambling again.
2. I don't have money and realize that gambling ruined my life and in result I will not going to do gambling anymore.

This is what I see if I gets addicted to gambling, that's why it's important that we know the risk we're going to face in playing gambling games and I think we really do need a KYC approval so younger generations won't be able to play easily in gambling casinos.

Its good that you don't get addicted in gambling because you think negatively right now and I hope you wont end up like this, If there is something bad happen with your gambling activities better not to take it seriously even if you lose big money, just act with your right mindset and act like a normal lose to you.

Good decision, you are fortunate that you become aware of the effects of gambling in your body. Keep up the tight attitude mate .

Anyway, why are you not happy on the achievements of your friends? They are rich now, which means their gambling activities is doing all fine, what's the problem? Are they not the same as what you met them before or just getting jealous?

You better keep your discipline in gambling, you won't be addicted if you have control and just do it for fun.
Even gambling for money, that requires discipline as well, you need to have a strategy to win and to minimize the risk, usually it's a long term
journey and if we succeed on that long term journey, then maybe you have a chance to be profitable in gambling.

Some people get hooked and get addicted to it because they are too weak to use their emotion instead of their mind.

Well if you're addicted you can do many things just to sustain your addiction and its not easy to stop it suddenly, you need support from people around you to change the habit.

Few years ago I became addicted and that time I dont give all my salary to my partner because I need a budget to be able to gamble.

Im just saying an alibi to my wife on why I need an extra money, I also borrow money to my workmates because of my losses and for the hope of getting it back.

Later on my wife found out that I gamble regularly, she got mad at first but she is also the one who help me to overcome it.

I haven't been addicted yet and not in gambling too but if ever I got hooked with it, maybe depression. I will be too depressed for sure and could probably lead to suicidal attempt  . just a thought because I now that addiction is a very difficult situation.

If you do already know on what would be your attitude after you do play gambling then if I were you I would completely avoid such thing.Even if you don't like to show into others there would be always a time that you can inevitable show it publicly and the worst you said that you do argue with your wife about the money you have lost or being used on gambling.It already affects your relationship towards your wife and
don't make such thing to prolong because sooner or later you would surely regret your decision.

Do not know, if only imagining then we can have many plans that are still in a reasonable stage. But when it really happens, then a bad possibility can occur because when you become an addict and a big loss will be difficult to think wisely and difficult to control emotions. I personally have gone through a period like this which in the end I just locked myself in a room for fear of doing negative things that were not expected. Imagination and reality will be different and you definitely have spontaneous actions when they really happen.

I can easily get addicted and that is why I am avoiding gambling and do it as fun and not to make profits.  I have many rich friends that football betting is running their life and I am not happy about it.

As long as you don't realize that you became addicted to gambling, then there is no way you will stop. Like you said, you will be blaming people when you lose money on a game. This "blaming" people is just an excuse for you to continue gambling and avoid the confrontation. Since you know that you might get addicted to it, then don't gamble at all in the first place.
Maybe I wouldn't be the same, but how would I know? I am not an addict.

Addiction to anything including gambling is dangerous sickness or probably can be considered as a non-curable disease. I have gone through extreme addictions right from internet, movies, technology, news, gambling and have came out of them over the years. I was once a torrenter who would upload and download around 20-30 GB's of data per day which includes movies, games, comics and books. I have bought a server for maintaining those stuffs and the size of my collection ranges somewhere around from 15-20 Tb. I came out of that insane addiction by distancing myself from the online world for more than a 5 months. If you couldn't resist yourself from turning on your PC/mobile, try to give them off to your friends. Addictions and cures would probably be taken care by myself completely and I don't depend upon others during such times. Later on I got addicted to bitcoin and the cryptocurrency technology and I spend somewhere around 5 hours per day reading through the technical documentation and the code.

During the beginning of my crypto addictions, I have been part of gambling addictions. Those lasted for not just a month or so and that was seen to be quite dangerous to me for losing all my money. I distanced myself over the course of months from Gambling and rather would invest the same money in promising alts during the dips.

It's addiction, a serious disease inside your minds where you need personal care and guidance, if you are willing to be cured, the right thing to do is to admit your problem then seek for help with your closes relatives or friend, if you are already in  a high level of addictions seeking for good psychiatrist
will help you to find ways to eliminate this issue inside your minds.

Help from your love ones is the best counter if you are not that addicted yet.
 

I don't know about that.. Sure drugs can be very damaging to your health, but I think gambling is probably the most expensive addiction out there.
Think about it, someone who's severely addicted to gambling will spend every last penny in his pocket.

Most drug addicts will still get by somehow, gambling addicts usually end up selling their house etc.

Its not the worst addiction in the world, drugs can be far more damaging on your wallet and health.  I think it is very important to have a very close support system of friends that you can talk to in your tough times.  Just remember that everything is temporary and nothing will last forever.

You should be the one who fix your personal issues first and foremost, not your parents. Yeah! You can seek for their  advices because it was a part of their responsibility as a parent since you were a child but now that you are slready mature then make your own act for the improving yourself and do not fully give the obligation of changing you into others.
I don't thi k it will be a good idea because if the other is struggling in the same condition and can't solve it either thrn how he will give solution to yours. What you need is an an adviser, it doesn't really importang whether it is a professional or not as long as it has a clear mind so that he can asses your problem properly.

The worst thing about gambling addiction is that addicted person never admit it, he will keep repeating "I am doing it for fun" whenever someone warns him.

The responsibility is up on his family or friends to help him recover from his addiction.
If it was me, (hope it will never happen) I will talk with people who had the same problem and ask their guidance, also, I will start new activities.
The most important thing is to have someone who cares about you and will support you during your suffering.

I will be also the same as you are said in your court that we can definitely addicted to gambling when we got and entered into this field when someone says about addiction that be a good advice so keep that advice and make more useful gambling and don't get addicted to it.

but still most of the people using gambling very peacefully and making more money again and again so then how they are doing it properly without addiction are any tension It's all about how we handle any job we can find it will not get addicted to anything.

I doubt you will ever do that, I might bet on having some arguements with your parents and asking them for money to get your behaviour into normal again. Getting addicted is really hard to make a contradiction in an easy manner.
But seeking for help to anyone is not a bad idea I guess.
