If we don't have a source of income and need money, I think we can stop gambling until the situations become better than before. We can try to earn money first because we need that money to continue to survive. We still have much time playing gambling because the important thing now is how we can pass this pandemic with alive. We can not depend on other people because they have the same problem for us, so we should try to make money fills our daily needs.
Others thinks the other way like they can earn through gambling which is true sometimes but mostly not. There are really lucky gamblers always win their games which they are good at. In the sense of survival, earning money is really important but we cannot tell it directly to gamblers that the money they will going to use for bet should be allocate for daily needs. This is life which is really hard to understand.

A gambler needs to manage its win money for what they will going to do with the money. If they can divide the win money to buy their daily needs, I think they will not have a problem buying the needs while still playing gambling. When the gambler can win many times and get a lot of money, they will have a chance to survive with that money. But if a gambler just uses the win money to hope to win another win money, then they will not have a big chance to win.

It is indeed right that because of pandemic people tend to play gambling more to kill boredom but since we are already a couple of months stuck in our houses due to quarantine being implemented just like here in our country wherein we are already 6 months staying home, people will surely find ways to kill their boredom and the most common thing that people do is play games like gambling. It is already given that there is a certain negative impact playing this game could affect human behavior most specially if playing is not in proper moderation. There is no wrong thing on playing gambling as long as you know your limit on when to stop and budget the amount of money you intended to spend for playing gambling.

I have read the questionnaire and it was easy and understandable to assess how you are as a gambler. It was just so nice and commendable providing a site that could help problematic gamblers that find themselves addictive on playing gambling and it is really very essential at times like this that there is someone or something that will make you feel appreciated and will boost up your moral.

These people are already gamblers even before the pandemic, and it makes them happy when they are doing it so you are right, this is like a stress reliever on them while they can be safe gambling at home only, however, for those who are already addicted in online gambling, I doubt that online site to help the addicted gamblers would work, if they are in control of their computer, they might  not access that site as some addicted gamblers does not even know or admit they are already addicted, that's the real problem actually.
maybe many of them are truly gamblers even before the pandemic but there are also others that don't even gamble in their life.
But because of the Pandemic they become interested in gambling and now playing better but losing mostly,One of them are my Bestfriend in which Not a gambler since birth but now?He seems to be spending half of HEr day just to gamgble.

If your total score is 8 or higher, you may be a problem gambler.

LOL I've had higher than 10 TBH but I don't see myself facing nor having any problems with the Gambling at all. I know that I'm addicted onto it as I wake up and the first thing I do is to check if my bets where correct or not and even try to bet again before taking breakfast nor working. But I know that Gambling had been making me satisfied with the fun it yields towards the experiences but I also know how to discipline myself in order to make something good out of my  gambling activities.

I don't think the survey really accurate to all gamblers nor to all of their mindsets. But then, it's better for other gamblers to seek help whenever they feel to be addicted onto it.

it really depends on how you handle your gambling habits. it varies from person to person. same here, if i have bets of course, thats the first thing that you will check when you wake up. but it doesnt mean that you are a degenerate gambler. there are other factors in play here.
 anyway, just know how to handle yourself in this game and youre pretty much safe from deep trouble...

As per my analysis is concerned on this, i think many people did not have anything constructive to work on during the covid 19 lock down time ,so they become addicted to online gambling because they could access it easily from their homes. Also during this period, many new people were introduced to online gambling as the physical gambling casino were completely closed.

Those who have savings and are on lockdown can enjoy gambling yes according to surveys people gamble because they are on vacation from work and they have money to gamble, they have all the time to gamble those who play on a weekend can gamble daily now, this is why the results of the survey are very high compared to normal times.

Nowadays Covid-19 number of deaths globally has gone down in most of the countries so it is a good sign that the virus is losing power and we are near the creation of a vaccine for it.However gamblers have big difficulties in controlling their emotions starting from myself which many times I have lost in slots more money than I could afford to lose.Covid or non Covid gamblers will go gambling as long as they need the urge to do it.
unfortunately in several Asian countries there are still many who are exposed to the covid virus, gamblers should be able to rest for a while and stop gambling in large numbers when Covid like this many people lose their jobs so that economic conditions will weaken so I recommend that you keep your assets safely. as good as possible.
Corona is the reason of this bleeding, since people needs cash for this pandemic. Around the world individuals were under isolate and many were died by this deadly infection. we're fine but we're not permitted to make FREE move simply like previously so prayers for everybody. We're still in a tough situation so we've to deal it in right manner.

Very well said, and the right manner to deal with it is just to gamble online, that if you can still afford to gamble considering the world is in financial struggle now. Gambling is always fun this isn't a solution of financial problem, remember, we spend money here not earn.

   Covid-19 virus affected all of us! Because the measures across the world, the ones like shutting down the business and quarantine,
many people were stressed, and had to deal with that alone in their locked homes. Many people had big psychical problems and they
had to find some ways to deal with that stress, and one of the ways is online gambling. Running away from one problem in another
is never a good solution, people need to find to stay healthy and strong in these difficult times.

Covid19 may be minimize its transmission probably because of people being cautious already of the virus by following the minimum health protocols implemented by the WHO and enforce by the local agencies concern.

However, covid19 does not really stop the gamblers to bet. Others are chosing gambling to be online while other do it illegaly in a certain venue where authority could have difficulties to penetrate and hold them. Here in our place, some raids were actually done due to these gambling activities happens where after some individuals receive their financial assistance from the government utilizing it for gambling like tong its, cock fighting, majong and other traditional form of gambling. If you will then ask them why they do it then simply to get out from being bored for staying at home all the time.

we need to discipline gambling games to avoid the losses.
I just wish that this kind of thing is is the thing that most of the gamblers must have whenever they are gambling.
I just wish that having discipline while gambling is that easy to do.

If only more gamblers are disciplined enough whenever they are gambling, their chances of losing money will be reduced by a bit but that doesn't the case. Most of the gamblers are ending up losing their self control whenever they are either winning or gambling and having self control is automatic when a gambler is disciplined enough to control himself. I just wish that more gamblers will have this trait to lessen their losses.

We need to apply to ourselves before we can tell others to do the same thing as us. People can't follow what we did if we are not successful in having discipline because the discipline itself is not easy.

If more gamblers are disciplined, we will probably see the number of addicting people to gambling will reduce because people know that gambling is just for entertainment. They need to discipline to prevent the addicting.

It is normal if the gamblers losing control when they win, but if they have discipline, they will remember that they don't need to get tempted to play more rounds because it is enough for them to playing gambling. Discipline and self-control will be two parts that every gambler must have in gambling.

Loses do happen to us gamblers even if we are too discipline, what discipline could only teach us is to gamble and not allowed ourselves to lose more than what we can't afford to lose. That's very simple but actually hard to implement if you don't have that discipline.

Everyone have their on position about that particular concern,
if you have some attitude similar to that  for sure you have your own explanation about it.
Many gamblers tends to denied their too much engagement with gambling to the point that
they are in denial that they are really addicted to this activities.

Yes you nailed it with your point. Most likely gambler in deep problem with gambling are usually addicted in playing to it. The reason for this addiction is that they made losses which they wanted to get back. These will resort to bigger bets and bigger losses as time pass by without the gamblers knowledge that he is already in the deep trouble of gambling and addiction. If this type of gambler could not be refrain from doing such activity and no one had attempt to just like having a stress debriefing or to conduct self realization on how to get out of addiction in gambling then higher chances it will destroy the life of that gambler.

Even if it varies from person to person, I think the purposes will be the same: we need to discipline gambling games to avoid the losses. Knowing how to handle ourselves will be important because that is one factor that will determine we can have control or not, and we can prevent the big trouble as you say.

Gambling is fun, but behind that fun, it also tempts and could attract us to go deeper into the gambling games. When we can discipline, we don't have to worry about that because we can know when to stop gambling.
