There are any senario like this and some gamblers even if they are too addicted if they found Thier true love or let say girl friend then they will sacrifice Themselves and leave gambling forever than leaving his girl. And also even me if I am in the situation then I'll choose my girl and leave my gambling. Even though we can not deny the fact that once we got addicted we need to control ourselves in order to brt greediness and spontaneous decisions.
That is correct. Finding something that might interest us more can be a way for us to leave gambling forever. But it seems it's still not easy because we really have to be able to realize that what we are doing in gambling has crossed the line so that we can try to get out of gambling. And finding something more interesting can help us to get out of gambling. Maybe it's best before we get addicted to gambling, we should be able to control ourselves so we don't experience problems that might impact our lives.

I don't know why but I feel for some personal reasons people don't actually quit gambling for good, I feel they just take a break from it well if am wrong for everyone then for myself that's what I actually do because anything I feel I have gambled more than expected I actually pause for sometime and let go so I won't get affected emotionally and mentally.
I think some do, but it depends. You know, some people do experience some kind of issue at work or with their family because of their gambling habits, and those kinds of situations really do make them have no better choice than to just quit gambling entirely. Like a friend of mine who has decided not to be gambling because of his girlfriend, I asked him one day, Since he is no longer gambling, what if he is no longer in a relationship with the girl?, and he said, "Until then, but for a long time now, the guy has just stopped gambling, and if it happens that he gets married to the girl, then he probably has stopped gambling for life.

A drug addict can get better with rehab but a gambling addict can't get better with rehab because there are financial issues involved where emotions work harder. And it is this emotion that does not allow a gambling addict to quit gambling easily.
I don't think so, does that mean that it will be vice versa onto a drug addict? Rehabilitation is different in every case but I think it will work on gambling addiction as well as long as the patient is doing the work that they need to do. Though I don't tend to know how financial issue works on gambling addicts as what you stated.But if you still have money and assets I'm sure it's difficult because gambling addicts always sell whatever they have as long as they can catch up on the losses they've experienced so most gamblers always feel they can't control their emotions and revenge to get back what they lost, gambling addicts just can't accept the risk that gambling can lose money but they don't realize it so they keep playing after the lost money so they can come back again, but in the end they don't get it anymore and even spend all the money unconsciously. the only way to cure addicts that must start from the desire of the addict.
I don't agree with you at all. Rehab can indeed be a very important step in helping addicts overcome their addiction. True, in some cases the addiction can return after rehabilitation, but this doesn't mean that the rehabilitation is just a formality. Addiction is a complex problem, and relapse is a common part of the recovery process. However, many people successfully recover from addiction through rehabilitation, so it is not good to generalize and simplify things like this.
I agree with you that Rehab has the power to stop someone from addiction and it can greatly reduce the levels of addiction. I also agree that some of those addicts who have gone through rehabilitation can still get addicted to gambling once again, but I highly doubt that they will have the same levels of intensity or addiction levels after going through rehabilitation. The addiction is a powerful thing and that's why rehab centers often have a hard process for the addicts so that they can give up on their addiction. However, I still think that rehab with some strong emotional bound can cause huge changes in someone's mindset and that person can somehow control his/her addiction to some extent.
So I think it's easy to join in gambling but very hard to leave.
that is the reality experienced by most gamblers. Somehow they get money big enough to spend in the casino every day. this is for the addicted gambler. and it will be difficult to get out. I also feel that even though I only bet for a small nominal.but one of the reasons for bad gamblers who cannot stop gambling regularly is that their finances are indeed quite strong. when there is nothing to bet on, it's possible that the gambling has already used up the assets that are owned. then it will definitely stop. but the problem is when they have a little money back, they can just go back to spending it on games. can come out or not, I think it depends on the changes of the gambler himself after all his assets are lost due to gambling.
So, an addicted gambler doesn't basically stop when they get out of money but they start looking for other ways to get money if they have spent every penny they had and also have sold and used every asset and property they owned, such a gambler can be really dangerous and a threat to society.

In fact, rarely has the problem of avid gamblers been highlighted as much as in the movie "Two for the Money" and really most of the players just can not stop, they will play until they lose, this is what all casinos are built on, they all lure people of such a character and the longer they are there, the more they lose.
As for drug rehab, I disagree. A lot depends on the environment and people who can help overcome addiction after rehab center. Without rehab centers everything would be much worse, it's just that most of those who start taking drugs again are in a bad environment, with people who don't help fight addiction.

Do you know why there is this difference?
This is because someone that is addicted to a drug or alcohol is just trying to enjoy themselves or they are hurted by friends or relatives.
But someone who is a gambling addict is seriously expecting millions of dollars they will win one day. This expectation keeps them in the addiction and makes it long enough for them to be cured.

To begin with, how many gambling addicts go for rehabilitation??? This is not about drugs that could cause a psychic issue that would be easily noticed and calls for urgent concern, it's gambling and many of those people who are gambling addicts might at times not know by themselves and also at times, might not be noticed by others too. The latter has happened to me in 2013, despite being addicted to playing lotteries back then, none of my family members know despite living with them daily. I actually realised by myself that something was wrong, which made me fight it and was able to come out of it within two weeks.
I said all these to roar the inner mind of a gambling addict, it might be late before people started noticing and it could be so disastrous at that later stage. They, as adults are saddled with the responsibility of observing themselves regularly and exercising the necessary measure before it's too late. Everything should be done in moderation no matter how you love the thing, and in everything you do in gambling, gamble responsibly and be disciplined.
Maybe only a few gamblers who are addicted to gambling can realize that there is something wrong with them and it is gambling addiction. And these few are trying their best to overcome their gambling addiction and even fight it alone without help from others. You have proven you can fight gambling addiction and realized it was a mistake, so you set out to cure it and succeeded.I said all these to roar the inner mind of a gambling addict, it might be late before people started noticing and it could be so disastrous at that later stage.

Everyone can do it if they want to realize that they have a gambling addiction and want to cure it. But on average, they don't want or are still not ready to leave their comfort zone so they still gamble. And as long as you are aware of it and want to cure your gambling addiction, it is never too late to start, whether you want it or not.
The thing is not to quit gambling, most especially if you gambling for entertainment and how to keep yourself enjoying, I am also against the opinion of taking gambling as a source of income, but I am also for gambling because I actively gamble from time to time.
So there is a difference between the two, and that is what ops must take into consideration in this instance and for that ops need to have rethink his decision to quit gambling in its totality.

Some also gamble for entertainment.
But as I can see, there are a lot of gamblers who think that they could win rather than just enjoy themselves. Of course, none of us are not aiming for it but we also know how to accept the fact that gambling isn't that looks like.
I don't encourage people to stop gambling but what I wanted is for them to think about it. I don't care about rich people but I was very concerned about the poor people who keep on gambling.

I beg to differ.
Addiction to gambling is mostly a psychological and mental addiction while addiction to drugs or alcohol is physical addiction. Logically, recovering from gambling addiction is easier if the affected person have the will and really want to recover.
Of course, the process is long and he needs professional assistance aside from the family and friends support.

If an occasional gambler becomes a CEO of a big multinational company, there is a very high chance that such person will never return to gambling, this is if they even remember that there is such a thing as gambling, this is due to work load, imagine having to wake up very early in a morning to prepare and be in the office on time, and coming back late at night, when you come back, all you just wanna do is take your bath, eat dinner and lay down to sleep, and you do this every single day except on Sundays, such a person will hardly have the time to do online or even physical gambling depending on the nature of gambling before rising to that level.
Exactly, if there's other things which is important to you thinking about gambling will be far and not be concluded from your priorities, and that affects everything, you can call yourself occasional gambler and stopping or quitting will never be a problem, unlike with people who still trying to hide the truth behind their gambling participation,
keep insisting that they are just an occasional gambler but their mindset are deeply attached with gambling, people who are discreetly playing and already losing their money and keep on pushing forward to try recovering the money that they already lost along the way.

It will still depend on the personality of the individual. Some of us will wait for the wake-up call before doing something productive in our lives. If this addict turned homeless for a long time all because of his gambling losses, he might be able to widely see what he did wrong and will finally wake up. This is if his personality thrives to make himself better.
For some addicts, they tend to dig deeper. Mess with the wrong crowd and even kill himself. Totally different character decides what their fate will be.
The bad thing about this is that when the call for attention does not arrive, how to do it? How can you react, it is very clear that when a player enters a casino and plays and spends, it represents a normal, common case that happens, that is the daily bread in a casino, there is nothing strange there, the strange thing is For a new player to start playing and win and win and make good money and then withdraw it, a casino is not alarmed because someone enters, leaves some money and leaves everything in the casino losing.
The casinos that worry when something like this happens is because they are regular clients, and they know how they bet, what amounts they spend and they try to protect them by calling them attention.
