Yes, when gamblers try to achieve a goal rather than taking gambling as entertainment, gambling creates a major setback for those gamblers when they lose. A gambler then harms himself and the effect spreads to his family and, in turn, to society. Gamblers who experience harm often refer to gambling as negative. But if gamblers could practice responsible gambling, they will not considered negatively. A gambler's failure to practice responsible gambling is his own responsibility. Although gambling is not seen as positive in society, the uncontrolled gambling of some gamblers has a greater effect on society.
This is something that is being lost on society today, whenever we find out that a person is behaving in a way that is antisocial, the first thing that many people do today is to try to find a third party to blame, when most of the time, the only one that is responsible for the way their life is going on is that person.

So people learn that no matter what they do, they are never at fault and this is a dangerous attitude to hold, since those people will never learn to take responsibility for their actions and will blame anyone for their lack of self-control when they gamble, when they are the only ones that can stop themselves and change for the better.

In that you are right, so when I was a newbie and I played a lot of dice that feeling always appeared, so when I was playing and I lost I always thought about what I could buy and that filled me with rage at myself, of course that is a thing of the past, now I do things differently, not with the same intensity, now things have changed and are seen from another point of view, a more mature point of view, where my secret is in putting up the money to lose in a casino, I don't put up more than that money because that throws everything off, so I think that all those mistakes, feelings and things that I went through helped me a lot to mature my game.
There are still some gamblers who think the same way you were thinking when you were a newbie in gambling. Some have been in the system, but still, they find it difficult to outgrow that reasoning, and that has been the reason why some of them gamble the way they have up till date, always calculating what they can achieve with the money they are expecting to win from gambling, even when they have not won it yet. The more they try, the more they lose to the game before they realise a lot of money has been wasted in the game.

Knowledge is important in gambling because with a valuable information, a gambler wouldn't make mistakes concerning their gambling activities. Those who get into trouble while gambling are always ignorant of responsible gambling. The ignorant players actually are the ones who bring in bad publicity to the society regarding gambling. This should also encourage the distribution of responsible gambling knowledge. That's if the society wants to reduce the rate at which people get addicted and destroy the life of their loved ones. Communicating with gamblers about the need to stay responsible and limit how they gamble, will help the new players to have prior knowledge on the game before doing deeply into gambling.

Although gambling is not seen as positive in society, the uncontrolled gambling of some gamblers has a greater effect on society.

When a person is determined to maintain the right form of gambling, he wouldn't bother about getting into gambling troubles. Which could add more gambling disputes in the society. So, players who hasn't figured a method to set up their gambling activities in the proper form could be endangering their responsible gambling functionalities. As a player, it's necessary that an alternative plan is kept to sustain the periods of multiple losses.

Whether it happened right in the player's eye or unknowingly. It's also possible for a player not to keep to his principal, when in of extra gambling funds.

Yet, trying this out is a more reasonable means of handling and preparing against an unexpected gambling addiction. For a safety purpose the funds could be saved in a trusted person's account. Atleast without stress the gambler's reserved money could be used to revive him from gambling problems.

The person feels guilty about the money he lost, because he realizes that he could have spent it on something that could have benefited him. Only if we go back to the moment when he has money and a choice will he most likely choose to gamble again, because gambling causes much more emotions than even buying something useful. Any gambler sooner or later feels a sense of guilt and it is quite normal, because this kind of feelings appear at the moment of realizing their mistakes.

In that you are right, so when I was a newbie and I played a lot of dice that feeling always appeared, so when I was playing and I lost I always thought about what I could buy and that filled me with rage at myself, of course that is a thing of the past, now I do things differently, not with the same intensity, now things have changed and are seen from another point of view, a more mature point of view, where my secret is in putting up the money to lose in a casino, I don't put up more than that money because that throws everything off, so I think that all those mistakes, feelings and things that I went through helped me a lot to mature my game.
Just shows that you improved now in handling the situation, able to accept the outcome and the reality that losing money in gambling is inevitable. Experience can really teach something valuable that we can use the next time if we still opted to continue what we used to.

It's quite normal to have regrets if we lose in gambling, but it can be prevented if beforehand we prepared ourselves to the worse situation that can happen. So we can only set an amount, which is ready to lose and doesn't affect us negatively even it did happened that we are not fortunate to win.

This thought don't always come to our mind before we gamble, but it does surface when we are have lost the money and a thought will ring on our mind than we could have used the money to take care of our bill and do something that could be very rewarding and profitable even though it is to use the money and buy food. Gambling is just like a spirit and we should be ready to get prepared for it so that we don't finally have to lose everything due to the feeling that keeps telling us that we are going to make crazy amount of money in due time. Gambling is not for people that are not ready to take challenges and face their fear. We should likewise use our head to plan things that would not make us to lose finally.

The truth is if the gambler is not a responsible gambler he will always feel guilty when he finishes his gamble activities. One who is into business always feel bad when he's not making profits from the business he is doing, so as this is a gamble related thing that most gambler gave used as a means to make profits, they will also feel bad when they are not making any profits from it, especially if the lose is bigger than his winnings.

There is no doubt about it, there will always be people who point out people who play and lose a lot, it's like they have a magnet to talk about them, but I think that people who dedicate themselves to that, their lives are so empty that they should entertain themselves with what happens to Others , however it is something that we should not give Importance to, I consider that in casinos, each person who enters should always consider themselves to have a high degree of responsibility, so that they do not fall for the odds and although the casino is designed for us to get excited and spend a lot of money, we must be disciplined, then society and our emotions are something that we must be very Careful about.

Bad experiences or situations is something that could teach us on how reality works and on how it would really be affecting us on which its up to someone or an individual on how they would really be accepting those things or would really be that adjusting on what are the things that they should gonna do. It is really just that there are individuals who cant really just that be able to sensibly be able to make out some good decisions despite of the bad conditions that they are experiencing into. Gambling isnt really that bad on which the only bad thing on here is into those people who do make out bad decisions towards their gambling activity
on which this really causes for their lives to get miserable just because of the wrong decisions that they had made.

Gambling is really just that for fun but to those people who do make out such engagement and making themselves that getting addicted to it would really be the main
reason on why they do mess out their lives because of it.

Gambling can affect self-esteem, relationship's, physical and mental health,work performance and social life. It can harm not only the person who gambles but also the family, friends, workplaces and communities.
Maybe you should just be specific. I am a gambler, and I don’t have any effect on my family members or community. The only people from whom I know that their gambling activities always affect them or the people close to them are the addicted gamblers, they are the ones that do crazy things just because they want to gamble, and their activities are affecting people negatively. Addicted gamblers activities are the ones that make society have a negative mindset about gambling, but I don’t see anything bad about gambling, just that we should try not to be addicted to it.
Where the environment like our environment must try to match. If we swim against the current, we will never reach our destination. If we feel that the people of the society we live in do not look favorably on gambling then we should keep our privacy and then gamble. You may think that it doesn't matter to you what other people say but when you are in danger, people in your society will say worse things against you. Since you are gambling with your own money and risking your own money, why should you unnecessarily be bad in the eyes of others? Since there is an opportunity to gamble with enough secrecy, I think we should gamble with this secrecy so that people don't get a bad impression of us.

Every player should have enough knowledge about where they invest their precious assets to gain or lose. Every step here is very important. Therefore, it is complicated to win this game without prior knowledge.

People who have become addicted to gambling in excess can never win at gambling. Every resource is valuable to every human being. Instead of losing wealth and becoming a beggar on the road, one should invest by gaining sufficient knowledge before investing.

Knowledge is important in gambling because with a valuable information, a gambler wouldn't make mistakes concerning their gambling activities. Those who get into trouble while gambling are always ignorant of responsible gambling. The ignorant players actually are the ones who bring in bad publicity to the society regarding gambling.

I strongly agree with this why gambling is considered bad for the community, one of which indeed makes the community lulled with false hopes and want a lot of victories from gambling that can have an impact on health and environmental relations, this often occurs due to the gamblers of their control.

Gambling itself doesn't make anyone an addict, it depends on the person. No one should think that they can make easy money with gambling, it's stupid.

In the end, it also depends on the person who is gambling because after all, for now we cannot rule it out but on the other hand, almost everyone who is in gambling must feel the same way where when we gamble, it will indeed become a dopamine that makes us like addicted again and again to gambling because in accordance with other discussions where gambling is very unique in terms of the nature that makes us feel like we are missing something if we don't do it.

The only thing wrong with this is expecting more from gambling as we are now discussing that not a few people think that gambling can make them get a big profit which is of course very regrettable in the end.
We can't deny that most of us who are here are gamblers but the difference is how much self-control we have and everyone's perspective on gambling that makes this different because not a few who are here also consider that gambling is a means to enrich themselves when it is a situation that is naive.

I could say yes in the sense that there are alot gambling abuse, people approaching gambling the wrong way, it is only those who approaches gambling in terms of profits maximization or as a hustle to earn a living. There is no restrictions on how anyone can spend his or her money anyone can do whatever they like, what the government could have done is to organize a sensitization campaign program that will reduce the act of irresponsible gambling and it's negative effect which are too numerous to mention, if gambling itself where that bad I believed it wouldn't have been legalized which has given a certain level of freedom to the society generally.

Could think of multiple legalized utilities that could affect the peace of a society, things like alcohol, also leads people to act strangely just like a gambler would when he's lost a lot of money. However, people are in charge of their money and control how they want it spent. Gambling is simple and straight forward, but risky. The government legalized it in some country where they think people would be able to handle the risk.

But, the issue keeps on increasing as young and aged people try to milk from it as an opportunity. This leads to problem gambling and would affect the society. So, at this level, the government that decided to legalize gambling on the base of moderating or regulating her citizens from getting addicted, should stand on their promise. Addicts are meant to be provided help by the government, through setting up some therapeutic hospitals for compulsive players.

If looking for the wrong one is indeed the culprit, namely the gambler, he is responsible for whatever decisions he makes, even with controlling his emotions, finances and other ha there is no one who can help him except himself, including his behavior towards the people around him.

Ha like this should be realized by the perpetrators of gambling, but unfortunately people who are addicted to excess they turn a deaf ear and ignore anything and that's the reason why addicts will be claimed as a bad influence on society, people like this must come to the point where he can't do anything else and realize that he must make changes in his life to live better.
That's right, the one who can help is themselves if they themselves cannot restrain themselves then they themselves make themselves in big problems such as finances that become messy. The actions taken are entirely our own responsibility, besides that the risks involved in gambling must also be borne by ourselves, such as the risk of losing money which is certain that it must be borne by ourselves, because there are gamblers who compensate others for the risks that occur. To be honest, if they can consider the actions they will take, maybe there will be no losses or problems, especially when they are addicted, of course the problem is themselves and they will find it difficult to get out of it.
With those who are addicted, they tend to close their ears because there must be people who advise them but the addicted person will not listen, even if the offender listens to the advice, he will not take the action that is in the advice, with him addicted he will only focus on the gambling he does. It is difficult for addicts to realize even if other people try to help, unless there is awareness from themselves that can make them realize and not continue anymore.
The house always wins, its as simple as that. Its your money, you wanna gamble it away? Thats your choice. But remember, you made that decision. Nobody forced you. I see these guys, they get in too deep, lose everything. Start blaming everyone else but themselves. Thats loser talk. You gotta take responsibility.

The worst part? They wont listen to reason. You try to help them, they shut you out. Its like a disease. They're addicted to losing. They gotta look in the mirror and say, "Hey, this is my problem, and I gotta fix it." Personal growth, thats the key. You gotta trust yourself, trust your gut. And you gotta trust the people who are trying to help you. You listen to them, you open your mind, you start to change. Thats how you win. Not at the tables, but in life.

I think it's similar to alcohol, in that it is fun to participate in it in moderation, but of course if you overdo it you will have problems.

And there is a lot of money involved in gambling. Actually if you go to a casino you usually have great deals in the bars, restaurants, etc, because they want you to gamble, and they offer great things at lower prices than usual.

If you don't gamble, you can get a lot of great deals in casinos. The moment you gamble though you start paying for those cheap deals.

Yep, using the government perspective, they're judging what is good and what is bad for society depend on the majority effect. There's always someone can win through gambling, but people forgot if there are a lot people are loss in gambling. Since there are more people who loss than winning, the government see gambling is bad for the society. Not to mention that there are religions that forbid gambling, this makes people who're in that religions will say gambling is bad.

Not all governments see gambling as bad for the society. You can read an article "10 Countries Where Gambling is Completely Illegal" to see that gambling is illegal, meaning that indeed the governments of these countries think it's bad for society, in countries like United Arab Emirates, Brunei, Cambodia, North Korea and some other countries, but in most countries of the world gambling is not considered that bad.

I strongly agree with this why gambling is considered bad for the community, one of which indeed makes the community lulled with false hopes and want a lot of victories from gambling that can have an impact on health and environmental relations, this often occurs due to the gamblers of their control.

Gambling itself doesn't make anyone an addict, it depends on the person. No one should think that they can make easy money with gambling, it's stupid.

Gambling is entertainment and is good for the community, but people who understand how gambling is, meaning that not everyone can be good and beneficial for someone unless he knows about how gambling is made into entertainment venues, ~

Yes, I agree. You see, you said it yourself. Smiley

I don't agree with you on this theory. Being a gambling addict does not stop them from making a few wins. Once in a while, they will lose the game, and once in a while, they will also win a few games.
 
The only thing that will affect them is that they have a higher chance of losing whatever they have won from gambling back to the casino within a few seconds. It's very easy for them to do that because they have lost their self-control and have nothing more to protect.

Yes, that's right, giving advice or direction to someone who is addicted is tiring, because in the end it depends on themselves, if for example they really still have it.
high obsession with gambling then of course there is a big possibility that whatever we suggest will not be able to change anything and there is even a possibility that maybe they will think that we are one of the people who interferes too much in their affairs.

So basically it is a good action for us to try to help people who are addicted with various actions that we can, one of which is by giving advice, that is good, but if for example they really cannot appreciate our help or from other people and instead say something that shouldn't be said to us then let it be, because actually this is only a matter of time, in the sense that as time goes by they will also definitely realize that their actions and thought patterns are actions that are harmful to them, especially when they have experienced some significant bad things that really traumatized them.
There are several efforts we can make to help them avoid gambling addiction, the simplest effort is to remind them with a warning because this effort is effective for family members and relatives and they appreciate our caring attitude, opinions about gambling are very sensitive and they don't even accept being called a gambling addict. even though they realize they have lost a lot of money in gambling. They will admit to gambling addiction after they experience stress and other symptoms of mental disorders due to not having money anymore for basic needs and they have lost everything in gambling, such gambling addiction must be cured with the recommended rehabilitation stage.
It is not too easy to keep them to keep a gambler out of gambling who is addicted. After being addicted the gambler can't stay away from gambling. And I think many a people try to stay away from gambling and though they can stay away they again fall on gambling.

This is key, right now whenever a person does something that is considered to be out of the norm, explanations are trying to be given to the behavior they are showing, in an attempt to try to switch the blame away from the individual, but this has the problem that it teaches people that nothing is really their fault and instead their parents, friends or society are at fault for their problems, when in fact the most likely cause for your problems is yourself, and if you cannot accept that then you will never overcome them.

But, if the gambler still has a good social life, then even if the gambler experiences stress due to his gambling defeat, at least they will still be able to control their emotions. If so, then of course gamblers will not do bad things in life for the community because after all, when gamblers do something bad or criminal, then at least basically the gamblers do not have a good social life for the community or with their environment. Therefore, at least mentoring will always be a good way to suppress or control one's emotions, because an addict needs someone and not to be kept away or isolated which makes it worse.
