The first thing we have to know before we vent into gambling is that gambling is a game of chances and whatever amount we set aside to gamble with we should know that we can lose it at whatever time, so we shouldn't form the mentality of gambling to make profits and also we should stay away from gambling as much as possible because, there are high chances that it could get you addicted to the point that it will become uncontrollable.


And also we should know that gambling with the mindset of winning can lead us into a gambling crisis because forming such a mentality will force you into chasing losses along the line which will lead you to more losses.

On the time that you are already borrowing money just for you to gamble then you are really just that basically making yourself that ending up on huge problem once you have seen your pocket is already empty or on the time that you arent able to spend up something just because you dont have any fund left and this is where people or gambler do really starts on having those suicidal acts just because they cant be able to bare out or handle out such condition. Quitting gambling might sounds basic but on the actual condition then this is where people do failed up on doing so. If quitting is really just that easy then gambling business or companies
wont flourished out into this market, but we are actually seeing the different condition or situation on which it does have that increase on which means that it is really that making such progress
due to tons of addicted gamblers out there.

Sometimes I have seen a lot that the Biggest problem of the players is this of not having anything to do about the emotions, I am a person who does not defend that much should be done with the emotions, also emotions are something that we cannot control , that it is possible, but that it cannot be done easily and when we let our emotions become a terrible problem, we must always make it clear that when it comes to doing things much better it is Preferable to do them well , so I don't kill myself my head with the emotions because I know that it is difficult to Control them, it is preferable to control the money that is Going to be put into the casino and let the emotions flow, it is the easiest and that is what is most recommended to do, basically it is to put on a shirt 11 bullets, because it is very difficult to do it.

If we don't know how to poem, despite the fact we see that emotions are what often cause us to lose when we are very focused on the game, emotions also sometimes do the opposite process, that is, they are playing and are very lucky, they say go for the emotions and win, but of course that is something that is very risky, I would not take it as one of the strategies to follow and that many players have a life where their money goes very quickly, but I prefer to have my emotions controlled with money that the emotions will try to control them during the game and at the same time I can say that I have control of it, because that does not work like that, the money still goes away if we do not control from the beginning the money that we are willing to lose, if this is not done , the consequences are disastrous.

One of the most common problems and what we must take care of is addiction, addiction makes us stay in control of everything, not only emotions, our money , it Makes us lose friends , family, everything, then this It is not a good business and all with just controlling the money we are willing to lose, if we do that well, we will have better results.

Caution and emotion handling on which i could really say that this is something relevant specially when dealing up with gambling. Majority of people who do mess up their lives because of gambling is that those people are really that delusional on trying out to be rich with gambling and this kind of motive or aims in mind will really be keeping pushing them on doing things on which arent supposed to be done. Once you do become that impulsive and really that make yourself desperate then this is where things turns out to be a problematic condition.  Gamblers doesnt really need up any help
if they are really just that sensible into the things that they are doing. They wont really be putting up themselves on such big trouble if they have just that kind of mindset.

It is really just that people never ever learn on the time that they wont be able to experience the worst. Its not necessary for you to experience out before you could learn because you could eventually
be able to avoid things if you are really just that sticking into the reality aspect and not to make yourself that too hopeful on things which we know that it is really unlikely to happen.
This is why it would really be that best on having realistic approach rather than on making yourself that too wishful thinking on things.

Someone has got a serious problem when they are onto the point of life that they're borrowing money just to gamble. Not just that, they're selling random stuff that they own for them to sustain their gambling addiction.

No one can stop them but hard realization that they're doing too much and they're no longer in their sanity.

And never borrow money to gamble because you'd be paying a lot of interest on top of the borrowed amount.

So, just don't gamble at all when you don't have money to place for your bets. Don't be pushy with it.

This is something we cannot allow ourselves to happen anymore, if we are focused on doing things well we have to be clear about something, we are people who will always have to look for improvements in our lives, there is no other option, we have to be clear In things, we cannot be inventing that we can do certain things without measuring the consequences. We are people who do have to see what we are getting ourselves into and how we can measure our capabilities. We cannot allow things to be like that. It's okay, if we play. We see what we can do but we have to take care of our image too, the fact that we reach a state where we are borrowing money to go to jail in a casino like that is a great addiction, there is no other way, it is something we should not do, we must overcome and we cannot allow it to continue.

One thing that we feel so desepsere for the game is Something that is not normal , it is okay that we like the game but in your wise Judgment , we are not people to go off and do any kind of things so that later everything goes badly for us, It is not like this.

A person must control himself, a person in the game must see it as another activity that must be carried out with moderation and not with despair, the fact that someone lends money to spend in a casino, at least it does not give me confidence and it is something that We should not do anything more, I see that we must lose borrowed money because we have no other recourse , but it is for something big, something emergency, a medical emergency, someone needs the money quickly, this is the only thing we must see.

But since each person handles themselves as they can and as they want because it is their money, here what I can advise is just for the sake of not falling into a lack addiction, because it is sad that a person's life is slipping away thanks to an addiction, that is something that is not good at all and that we must avoid falling into.

Gambling is not bad generally it is only when you form it a habit by allowing emotions attached to it, many goes to the extended of borrowing money to gamble or even gambling with the amount that they can not afford to loss and at some point making gambling to look like a crime while it is legalized. Gamble responsibily by only gambling with what you can afford to lose and still remain yourself.

Caution is a very important human characteristic.  It is this property that allows one to avoid any unpleasant consequences as a result of human actions.  But caution, of course, also depends on how quickly a person thinks and estimates what his actions will lead to. 
In gambling, caution is definitely important. 
It will really allow you not to lose too much and perhaps even stop the game and think carefully about whether it’s worth continuing or whether it’s better to end it even if you lose a lot of money. 
In my opinion, careful gamblers and careful people generally do not become addicted to gambling at the stage of the disease.  Their caution initially protects such players from harmful passion.

I do not agree with you because you seem to be abandoning the gambling addict due to the stage of their predicament, we should not do this for any reason. Fine, it could be hard to help gambling addicts especially when they've reached a certain stage in their addiction, yet, it might be worth it because no one knows the advice that will eventually heal them. Gambling addiction could be at the worst but it could be that the simplest thing will be their solution. Some are just suffering from this addiction because they do not have hope and purpose, if one could find the hope and purpose for them, they might immediately stop.

In my experience with gamblers who are addicted, one thing has always been their reason, and that is the money. Knowing this source of their problem alone is enough reason for you to help them. Just try as much as possible to show them another way that money could be made, and then you will see changes, at least in most cases. If you want to end the addiction in them totally, give them a purpose in life in addition to that, to the point that it will be taking their time and energy all day, but this time, it is positive because they are reaping the good results of what they are using their time and energy for. Before you know it, they will forget about gambling, not to talk of the addiction therein. This should work for most cases if not all.

People would really be just that mindful on the time that they would be experiencing those common consequences or situations been faced up by most gamblers on which they arent been able to mind it on earlier but rather they would really be doing it but its already too late. This is why it would really be better that you should be wary on the things around and on how things do works and what are the effects that it could possibly give when you do exert too much engagement and spending then you would really be ending up miserable and this is something that you should really be trying out to find for yourself
because once you do then you would really be having that kind of self awareness on things on which its not really that hard. Wondering on why many people missed out on this one.

It's right.  Of course, people often completely ignore the possible consequences of their steps and actions in the long term.  And if this is the near future, then they may think about it and change their actions a little. 
This of course also applies to gambling. 
For this reason, even a player who is actually already an addicted gambler, and this is obvious to his close people, quite calmly answers everyone that in the future he will definitely stop gambling and will lose his attraction to gambling quite easily.  But he can no longer do this without outside help.  As a result, it turns out that any warnings about the terrible and destructive consequences of gambling addiction for potential addicted gamblers sound like something that does not concern them.  And the warnings are simply completely ignored by such a gambler.  How to brush off an intrusive fly.

That is just the way people are, if you tell a person that their actions will have consequences years in the future, they will not listen to a thing you say, but if you were to tell them that what they are doing will have immediate consequences they will be way more ready to listen, so when a person is at the early stages of gambling addiction they will not make any attempt to stop themselves as they think of themselves as still being on control, and only until this is not the case they will begin to think about taking some actions to remedy this problem.

Gamblers who have become more frequent in gambling will not want to stop their gambling activities at any time. They still love their gambling games and will not think about what consequences will happen to them. Maybe they will continue to lie to other people that they can stop gambling.

But maybe some gamblers can realize where their mistakes are when playing gambling. They want to correct their mistakes by reducing their gambling activities or even stopping their gambling activities. And they will completely stop their gambling activities when they don't see any benefits they can get from gambling.

They will probably do many things to stop gambling. But it's different from those who have told lies. They will continue gambling, perhaps even until they run out of all their money.

This is a serious problem and I blame those gamblers for this. No one should start a thing without knowing the good and the bad sides of it if they are wise, and it is through this that the preventive measures would be known for those who are clever. Gambling is good and many have testified to this, but as good as it is doesn't mean that it doesn't have its own evil, it is this evil we have to plan against so that it will never affect us. Even if it does affect us, it will be less if a good plan is enforced. Gambling, if learned from the beginning, people would know that it is addictive and could cause us to lose just as it could earn for us. By knowing this, they will have to get prepared better for it, and if they are well cautious of the addictive part, they will not be too engrossed with it to the point that it will be compulsive to them.

Just like me, I gamble when I want to and I shun it when I want to, this is because I am fully aware of the danger in it. So it helps when we have that prior knowledge, our mindset would have been on the alert, so there will be a strong Willpower to say no when we don't want to play it. Also, about the wastefulness, it is all about our calculation and the right budgets, if we get it right and are disciplined as well, we will not have a wasteful issue with gambling. No one should just gamble because they see it as cheap, informal and accessible, it requires ethics and styles before we can maintain a responsible gambling characteristic.

That's for sure. 
Many avid gamblers, even when their gambling addiction becomes a disease, tell themselves and their loved ones that they are able to pull themselves together and stop gambling.  They also say that they just don't do it, but once they decide to stop playing, they can handle it so easily.  And this can go on for a very long time.  But in fact, such players simply cannot voluntarily give up gambling.  For real and rightly, they need compulsory treatment.  Moreover, they require treatment that is very similar to the treatment of drug addicts.  And even after such a course of psychotherapy, many still return to gambling because they do not consider it the same personality-destroying vice as, for example, alcoholism or drug addiction.  I also see this as a major pitfall in the treatment of such addiction. 
But of course, the close relatives of such a gambling addict should worry about this first.  In addition, such a strong passion often leads to the loss of a large amount of money and can generally lead a family to a miserable lifestyle. 
This is a fairly common danger of gambling.

That is the problem, people often don't notice things until they start creating problems for them, and it's not just about gambling but everything in general. When it comes to gambling, gamblers don't realize it quickly, some don't even do that until they get too deep into the addiction but their families and friends can notice the change before the gamblers themselves, so they should start thinking of a solution as soon as they notice this change.

However, even if friends and families do notice some change in the behaviour of the gambler or if they see financial issues occurring, they can't solve the issue themselves unless the gambler acknowledges it and agrees that they are addicted and they want to get rid of it, that is when their friends and family members can do something to help them.

Everything would really be known in the end and those actions be made will really be getting in line with their current mindset. Addicted people wont really be able to see and determine on which thing
is bad or which thing is good. You wont really be able to make yourself to see those things when you are in the process of playing. Quitting gambling wont really be something an issue if you are really just that responsible with your actions and not something that you would really be that making yourself that too impulsive through it because if you do then this is where problem do begins.
If you wont really be that making yourself that having that good control specially with your mind and with your emotions then you would really be seeing gambling activity to be a huge problem.

Oh, man. Gambling addicts, they notice nothing except spin button. And in their free time, I mean, their free from gambling time, they think of various combinations, be it on slots, poker or others. And even when they lose all their money to gambling it doesn't stop them. All think about is where to get the money f or gambling. And it's not like they are addicted the fun and ready to lose all those money, no. They are confident in their ability to win big soon.

Believing they can stop gambling whenever they want is just a lie they tell to themselves to avoid thinking about the consequences of this not being true, have you noticed that the majority of those that say that never make a real attempt to stop and see if their words hold true? They know very well they are lying, but a lie is more comforting than the bitter truth, however no matter how much they try to avoid it, at some point they will need to make an effort to stop gambling and that is when they will realize how difficult it is for them to do it.

To those people who do have that kind of awareness on the time that they do able to engage with gambling is into those people who are really that act accordingly which is right and this is something that should be applied for most gamblers and something that be wary about on the actions that they are making. If you are someone whose such have that kind of behavior then i dont see for gambling to be that a problematic thing for sure. Usually people do end up miserable just because of those wrong hopes and expectations that they had set on gambling or expecting something big that it could really be able to obtain
without any problems but it turns out to be that totally opposite.

Once gambling addiction clings into you, then getting out would really be that hard or something shall we say that it would really be that wrecking up your life on the best way as possible.
This is why control and self awareness and acceptance would be the key for you to be able to have that recovery.
