Gambling problems would definitely be starting to come out on the time that you would really be finding yourself not to be able to make out some good decisions or choices when it comes to spending.
On the time that you do become already being impulsive then you do really find these kind of actions or outcomes in regarding into your gambling dealing. Quitting is really one of the main or big challenges once you do get caught by addiction. This is why you should really be wary at least on the things that you've been doing if you dont really like to mess up yourself with gambling.
People do usually mess up their lives on the time that they would really be making bad decisions in regarding into their choices because they do really thrive and really that force up themselves
on happening on something which it cant be possible or something sustainable.

The average gambler is not aware that he has gone too far and is addicted to gambling, so it is not surprising that there are gambling addicts who are difficult to advise because most of them do not want to accept the reality of their life that they are addicted to gambling, although there are not many like that but on average they don't aware of it, that's why it is important for the people closest to you to remind the gambler that it is important to reduce gambling activities so that they can help slowly cure their addiction.

They as gamblers when they realize they are addicted to gambling must do something before things get bad and it is difficult to stop, gambling addiction has levels so when it reaches a difficult level, I am sure it will take a long time to cure their gambling addiction, I say this because there are many people near my house are addicted to gambling and it is difficult to recover, they play very wildly beyond limits, that's why where I live the crime rate and level of domestic violence have increased because of gambling

Seriously i'm amazed by this,seeing that a gambling or gambler problem can be solved.

But it doesn't make things better cause we all know everything that has a bad side,also have a good side but people will always tend to adapt to the bad ones,and that's to say they would still go on with their irresponsible pattern of gambling.

When it comes to security specially into those gambling places then it would really be just that standard or something in default. They could allow someone to play but on the time that they would be showing off with those acts which do pertains about being that impulsive of because of too much frustration and this is why it would really be just that normal that they would really be kicked in the venue. When it comes to those problems then it is really that common on which there are really those people who cant really just that able to control out themselves and this is why they do make out
such actions on which its not really that something right. Quitting is hard once you do get addicted but actually you could really be able to stop completely basing up on how serious you are on doing so.
It all matters on someones mind discipline and control.

This is an excellent question. The answer is very simple which is, nobody can force you to change. To change, you must first determine in your mind that there is a need for it. When you decide to change, the process is easy as you will turn to behaviours that would help you not relapse.

I think that anyone who exhibits obvious signs of intoxication will not be allowed to gamble because he or she may be a danger to the public or cause nuisance leading to a breech of public peace. However, the case mentioned above is very possible when the gambler is mildly intoxicated and there is no obvious signs. 

It should be the rule of every gambler: If you are under alcohol influence, never go to a casino and never open a gambling site. Yes, you can start gambling and win all of a sudden once, but later, if you keep acting like this, you will regret it big time, inevitably.


I think, whether person is drunk or not is easy to spot. I'd say the policy should be like this: When in doubt - not drunk. Of course it's allowed to drink in casinos, so, not allowing a person to bet after a drink would be ridiculous.

Maybe I'm exaggerating in this post, but from my life experience, when people are addicted to something they need urgent help and it's not advice or tips from the internet that these people are addicted to, they need to see a doctor. psychiatrist urgently and the doctor will order that these addicted people be admitted to the psychiatric hospital so that they can begin urgent treatment. In the psychiatric center, the addicted person will have their phone and many things confiscated so that they do not have access to the things that caused their addiction, for example in the case of people addicted to alcohol and drugs, they are hospitalized in a place isolated from other people and with very limited access. restricted so that they cannot drink alcohol and cannot consume drugs

for many months they stay isolated in the clinic, so that their body is free from alcohol and drugs and their brain learns to think that it does not need alcohol and drugs, only after the psychiatrist observes that they are really no longer dependent on them. substances that are harmful to health and that the doctor releases them from the rehabilitation clinic. with people addicted to gambling things are the same, the psychiatrist places the gambling addict in a clinic isolated from people, they confiscate all the means the addict had to access the internet, then they start with psychological treatment which consists of in talking a lot with the person addicted to gambling so that they begin to see that there are many things in the real world

The psychiatrist talks to all addicts so that each of them can share their stories so that all patients realize that they are not alone and that what they have is a disease that can be cured, but that depends on their willpower. The psychiatrist provides schedules with many recreational activities for addicts, this is to make them realize that there are many things in the world for them to live and have fun without needing to keep playing, after many months without the internet and without games, people addicts are cured and leave isolation and the clinic and the real problem begins, which is that the addict is able to resist every time he sees a game and doesn't play. This is the final step to being completely healed. Tips from the internet do not cure addiction

Anyone can change as long as they are willing, the change that is difficult to achieve is when you're enforcing them to go against their will, you won't force someone to doing what will be of advantage to him, that is people for you, except they were left with no alternative before they can made up their mind for a change.


Every addicted fellows knows they are, but waiting for someone to tell them what they are doing is wrong, this is a lesson on us all, we don't have to wait till the bad manifest in is before we do the needful expectations from us while gambling.

It's a pretty hard task to eliminate gambling addiction or any kind of addiction in general from the society. Not everyone is going to be a gambling addict and in the similar way not everyone is going to be a drug addict.

We need to guide those who are already addicted to gambling and we may have to do it in a strategic way. Without a proper strategy we can't do anything to fix the addiction of those people who are already addicted to it.

The truth is, we have to collectively address this gambling addiction as it is gradually becoming a menace to the society. The social vices we find in the society today isn't indirectly connected to all of this gambling challenges. If we address it and help gamblers out of their gambling challenges, we are also making the society a healthier place for ourselves.

Gambling addiction is one of the things we need to work on and ensure that we do the necessary things that would aid  us to stay feet.
Gambli6os regulated in some countries that is why people are able to be restricted from gambling especially when it is too excessive.
There are regions that have less restrictions and with that people easily become addicted and do whatsoever they want when gambling.
Everyone wants to make profits but not everyone is going to make it for sure.

In casinos that are physical, it is Obvious that alcoholic beverages exist, in fact that is a plus for the casino, because the person who is playing the more unfocused they are , the more they put money in the casino and lose it, the People are like this whenever they are in a casino and that is something that caisnos always see , Especially where I go to a casino that is like that, because the Peroans who drink and spend the most are the ones who have the most respect , and whatever the case may be,They give them special treatment, they even give them Whiskey , that's something that Surprised me, but expensive, one day I started to see why they were so exclusive with those people? because it was curious, because of course I realized that they spent a lot of money and that they did nothing but Spend and drink , so I realized that as the eproans were Affecting their alcoho l, it was as if the casnio was raiding their pockets, spending with alcohol is something that sometimes cannot be controlled, so this is something that we must see , of course we always have to see what can be done and is possible , but a person under the influence of Alcohol is something else.

When a person is Already half hooked on alcohol, he no longer cares about his money, he just wants to laugh, have a good time, and spend, he hardly gives importance to money , and that's why they make bets like that, then in reality The person is not very conscious, because the effect of alcohol sometimes takes time to get drunk and the person happily opposes it, they start doing something that they normally do not do, it is because some people are inhibited by things and they can do things that way. , that is generally always good to study, perhaps this is one of the things that can be beneficial for the cat, of course things get out of control when the employees abuse and get Drunk and then you have to get them out before they make a scandal , those things are what should be Avoided 100%.

I don't even know what to say as to what some guys could think or believe in, even some government officials inclusive. So he meant a casino would have a rule that bans intoxicants on their premises? I do not ever believe that is possible in the whole world. So far it is not an illegal drug, I think they are good to go. Alcohol is permitted almost everywhere in the world, will the casino continue to smell the mouths of their customers to know whether they have taken alcohol or be testing their blood and urine to ensure that they are drug-free? I think this is just baseless, and no matter what, it can't be complied with as this is beyond the physical look and behaviours, it is chemical that needs the study of the physiology of the bettor in question.

This can't be cost-effective and it is even a diversion from the core purpose to which the gambling house is doing its business. Maybe they (the government) will set up a taskforce in every casino to ensure this, but if not, the government can never get this achieved for whatsoever reason they might want it. It is only best to educate people about this addiction to gambling, especially gambling and taking alcohol/drugs, sensitisation and curbing the menace from the root is the best here, not such policy posted by the guy you reply to.

As much as this may be true, it is not the case with every casion, at least the ones that don't care about what you are stuck with, they just want to get the funds off you and then to the next.

We must ensure that all of the mentioned must be regulated and integreated into casinos so it becomes a more coordinated arena for people to thrive if we must help gamblers.

The question that keeps coming up in my mind is, do addicts change if they are not willing to change?


Because the best way to beat an addiction is for the individual to first accept the need to beat it in the first place, and also accept the fact that,  his personal motivation to quit is what most needed to fight and defeat addictions,  and some addicts who have failed multiple times to beat addictions are all those who have nog 100% make up their mind to quit the addictions in the first place, so is very important to first of all know what is the state of mind of the individual before we try to help them in any ways.


This service is very important to the society and I have some like society here in my locality who are social workers who are taking care of those with mental health conditions.

It is subjective, yes. But it could be otherwise if casinos decided to implement some sensors or ways to quantify the concentration of alcohol in the blood of the gambler. You know, like those instruments which are used by law enforcement officers to know whether someone is above the legal limit of alcohol in blood or not.
Though, it would be weird to see some bartenders in casinos using those on gambler whom they suspect to be above the limit.

Anyways, I believe most people who visit a casino should be already aware of their limit when comes to alcohol consumption and do not go beyond it because they are visiting a casino in Las Vegas. That is what many tourist do, they get above their natural limit of alcohol, misbehave and then next morning they have to deal with the consequences of the crazy stuff done. I could not be able to enjoy a night in a casino in such state, to be honest.

That depends on the level of the drunkenness, if that person is drunk but still able to communicate properly then it's not really that big of a deal to let that person stay for a little while in the casino but any attempts for that person to gain access to alcoholic beverages should be barred or prevented to hopefully make sure that the drunk person wouldn't go to a higher level of inebriation which will likely involve violence so you're right that it's subjective and that there's no way that we can just outright kick them out, remember that drunk casino gamblers are most likely to spend more money than they should so it's a matter of balancing act on whether you should kick them out or letting them stay. Maybe someone in this forum reach out to casino managers and see how they're managing this type of situation.

When we are talking about a specific family, it is indeed not at all necessary that the children of parents, one of whom, as a rule, the father, of course, was an excessive gambler, practically suffering from gambling addiction, will follow in the footsteps of their father.  And such a child, when he grows up, will not necessarily be interested in gambling either. 

But if we are talking about the average statistical data on millions of families in which the parents were addicted gamblers, then the statistics will be completely disappointing.  In percentage terms, there will clearly be more children in such families who are prone to gambling and those who actually become gambling addicts at the stage of the disease.

Alcohol problem? That is huge. I do not think it should get to this level at all, we should know how to handle this and not let it affect our psychology to the end that we will be alcohol addicted simply because we are gambling. If truly gamblers could resort to alcohol foolishly, that means that they could resort to drugs as well, which makes it bad. You see, people should try to understand gambling and the risk involved before they engage in it as it might be the end of their sanity, especially if they poorly attribute the solution of their gambling to stimulants.

What would stimultes do? Will they make you feel better or win? Both are not possible and if you feel better at first, won't you get back to the realization when you are back to your senses? That is why we should shun it from the beginning before it aggravates to what we can't control. If we lose, let us admit and move on, and if we win, let us be happy and celebrate minimally because we never can tell what will happen the next day. So, anything that calls for excessive excitement or unhappiness should be avoided so that we can ever preserve our sanity as we gamble, and we should gamble with a neutral mind. The issue of management matters too, we should gamble with the right amount of money and we should define the reason for our gambling and always have the plans that will never affect us severely.

Most of them have.

They have ways to measure someone's intoxication and that's why it is important that they should check people if there are complaints being sent to them.

But if there's none, then all are good to keep on gambling and that's the reason why many have find it better to gamble physically than to just stay at their homes gambling online.
