That is just one plain truth and whether we like it or not, even some of those who keep saying they are in for the fun, is just a way to keep oneself in check from becoming an addict. With the way gambling has turned some people into liabilities in the society; it has done more harm than good and has only enriched the pocket of those who own the casinos as they keep making money off people's greed and carelessness.

The casino know that they will never be out of business. They keep using various tactics to entice players who have given up on gambling. I frequently see promotional offers from a casino that I left playing on. I think they kind of track users based on spending habits and then chase them if they become irregular.

the consequences of playing gambling are huge and must accept what will happen to yourself, because gambling is a very big risk and can be legal too, because gambling is prohibited by the state and religion as well. then it is better to be avoided than to have to deal with the same law

Look mate, let me get this straight and simple for you. Everyone who has gambled knows the risk and the bad effects of gambling. But do they care? Do the smokers care for their lung cancer? They dont - they will continue with their vices because its what gives them pleasure. When their minds before too full of these vices they cant stop doing them.

They wont listen to religion, laws or their family.

Most gamblers know the risk that they can lose everything in gambling but unfortunately, most of them are not prepared with the bad risks. What's on their mind is mostly just a good dream to earn easy money. Regret will come in the end, when all has happened and we can't change the facts.

The first time you win on gambling, the consequences will be erased in your mind because you have the confident since you are winning, but eventually it will come back because you are not going to win as always, sometimes, the house is just letting you winning for a kick start as a bait, and if you bite it, then you will be addicted on playing gambling, that is how it works. The more addict you become, the more consequences you are going to face.

Gambling will destroy your self. If you gambling,  you will lost many thing.  First,  you will lost many money.  Second,  you lost some relationship: your friends, not enough time to your family, to your wife, your son, etc. And you also lost many good thing surround your life. Moreover, if you are a greedy human, you will lost many thing you have and become a crime to have enough money to gambling!

So,  STOP GAMBLING. Use free time that you have to your family,  your passion.
And there is just no better way to put it. I was reading an article recently, and from the research, it was discovered that over 80% of those who gamble are addicts and that was because they had the mindset of getting rich from gambling and a higher percentage of them are those in the low and middle class who are trying to make a living while very few in the high class.

The thing is that the irresponsible mindset of looking for free and quick money is what has led people to gambling and if they had channeled those energies into doing better things, it would have improved their lives than what they have turned themselves to from gambling.

I'm not a gambler addict and I just did try playing hi-lo betting sites but I already felt all those consequences and it's really the worst feeling when you lost. I tried to recover my losses but I still lost. That feeling stayed in me for 2 weeks. It's really makes me very weak.
I have never gambled regularly. I have gambled many years ago just one time and I won the bet. But I was also not addicted of gambling. That’s why I did not take it seriously because I know that the consequences of gambling are evil and nobody can be happy with that. If someone wins 100 dollars, the other day he loses 200 dollars. It means that the result of gambling ends always in lose.
These kind of situation happen for the people who are doing gambling for money earning so they will worry when they lose their money.But in gambling we are going to lose mostly so be prepared before betting and don't worry if you are losing.

Losing money is not the single worst thing we can get from gambling if we aren't careful enough. The opportunity to lose other precious things in our lives also exists. For example, we can lose our family, close friends and work. Extra caution will be necessary if we want to do gambling. So, be careful!
And it does happen. There are so many people who have lost their lives just because during the time span of gambling, they lost their families and close friends just because of this harmful game. People don’t like those persons who gamble. So these gamblers start losing their money, their families, their siblings, their relatives, and everything they had, hence become homeless.

he doesn't have to lost everything if he can realize that he always has the opportunity to leave the gambling games and back to his family, his friends and promise to not come back to the gambling places. but unfortunately, there are not too many people that realize this and that person is only risk everything he has without knowing that for what he did, there will be consequences that he should face it later. and before it's too late, it is better to leave from the gambling places and don't use gambling as our source income.
That’s the point. If he can realize and this is the first step required for getting rid of this game. If someone has emotional support of any sort, he can truly become strong and fight against any sort of temptation. It is not possible for a gambler to not realize his loss and bad effects of gambling, but when that happens it is late most of the times. Either he becomes an addict or does not has any penny to play further.

It made you extremely weak because you ended up deceiving yourself into the idea you are going to get lucky with your gambling and rather hit it big than you owning up to your action and accepting that the path you are about to take, is actually the path that most of the time, you are going to be losing a whole lot.

It is normal to always that kind of feelings when you are looking for so much from gambling and you should be lucky you are beginning to realize that now before it ends up too late.
Yes.For sure everybody here has already experienced great losses which will make us think that gambling can cause us too much bad impact.But no one will quit from gambling instantly,we tend to think first how to recover losses and when lucky enough,we will win the game but if it turns on the other way around,then for sure another losses will only make us more frustrated and depressed.
We have greed within us that’s why we don’t prefer to quit it. You are absolutely right that we all know this fact that gambling is wrong and it is just fatal to our finances but why we all are still talking good about it and even doing it? Just because the greed of money become superiorly preferred in our minds. We can’t see the good picture ahead rather gambling made us blind.

My question is -
______________

Has gambling left a trace on you; if it has which consequences are you experiencing right now?

Yes, it has.

It completely messed up my relationship to money. With enough retreat, I can rethink what I did, how I did it, if it was right or wrong ...
I am now learning how to save a little. And I'm amazed at how much I can save, and the forms my savings can take. Smiley
As much as I can hate banks, I have now first the first time of my life a savings account with a three figure sum for more than a month. Cheesy

I still gamble from times to times, but it isn't the same kind of gambling.
Now, I'm gambling to play a game / chill out a bit / have fun.
Before, my gambling was destructive.

I think it's up to everyone. It's easier for some than for others. It may also not be the right time for some people.
Everything comes at the right time. Smiley

You are not a gambling addict but I bet if you will continue to play gambling like you have started, you will soon become a gambling addict, the intense one we should say. If you would have played dice instead of hi-lo bets, I think there were more chances for you to win in this game. This is a big blunder if you go back for recovering your loss back because that will definitely put you in more loss.
Someone who has just started gambling cannot be said to be a gambling addict, but if they have been defeated and eager to continue to play to recover the losses it has faced is one of the traits that the person has started gambling addiction. Initially, maybe he will bemoan his first defeat but over time he will regret and always want to get back his loss. Believe me, something like this that will make you a gambling addict who always gets a loss and provides benefits for people who have a casino.

Gambling really does not bring real value to the society and the gambler itself. The first thing to gamble is to transfer money from one wallet to another. Gambling takes us time and destroys our health, losing our passion for labor. Gambling makes people greedy and vicious.
That is just one plain truth and whether we like it or not, even some of those who keep saying they are in for the fun, is just a way to keep oneself in check from becoming an addict.

A gambling addict will always understood every time he loses, he's new on the world of gambling proven he need two weeks to bemoan his defeat. If a gambler wants to return his capital losses he will continue playing at every opportunity he has. I don't think he will be a gambler addict if he continues to sink in lament. Being a gambler addict need a strong mental not just courage and ready to bet. Keep gambling until there is satisfied pay your losses.

Even if you give so big details,the gambler will always play gambling until he is not finish his bankroll. So in simple words everyone know about it even then they gamble
Lol. Not everyone always finish their bank roll, except for those who think they can win a lot from gambling. I have seen so many threads opened before with some people having this mindset that they can make profit from gambling, honestly who does that? This is a game of chance and why should anyone just keep dashing out their money for the sake of luck. Well, it just seems the number of people in this category is more than the realistic ones.
A lot of people always finish their bank roll. I have done it before when I could not just control it with that newbie mentality of 'just one more time' in dice, maybe it can actually hit it until you then eventually lose it all or you are left with so little to none at the end of the day. Most times, it is the experience of the consequences you have had in gambling in the past, if you are wise enough to see it, that will make you to be careful of your next move in the future or to just stay away.

I definitely agree. What if we no longer have money and yet we are addicted to gambling? We will do whatever it takes to get money or to be in the gambling game again. Like, selling the house of your family then you'd lose more than just the house, also your family because of what you've done. My mom had a friend who used to go to the casino or just gamble where the big players are. At first, he always won that's why he kept coming back but in the latter, he bet in EVERYTHING he had. Only then he realized, he had no one and nothing but himself. I hope this serves as a lesson to others. Only play with what you have.

As others here have already mentioned, gambling should be considered a form of entertainment. 
Some people enjoy movies, working out and traveling, while others would prefer to put some money down on their favorite sports team or have their luck at casino games.
It's all personal preference and it should not be forgotten that the house wins almost 99% of the time, so gamble cautiously.
I think that would be fine if you spend your extra money into gambling knowing you know your limits already.But when you feel you're heading into its addiction,think of the different consequences that it may bring to you and definitely ruin your life in the end.This always happens to everyone since being greedy is what motivates to most of the gamblers,so i guess gambling should be minimize once and for all.

It's easy to say than done. Once addiction kicks in, even though you think of things that might happen, your mind is already blocked. You wanted to stop but that ain't easy to do, you are thirsty for more. First and foremost, If you'd really wanted a source of fun and entertainment do not consider gambling as your first option. There are a lot other options available which is not that addictive compare the gambling.
I hope nothing would be kicked because if there is it would be your butt when you lose a lot of money. I agreed that you would be really thirsty when you experience the hype of winning big money and the mind would let you know that you could win it again but it is less likely than that.
Absolutely right. I also think the same way. Gambling should be for fun and entertainment and not for making money. If a gambler wants to make money with gambling he will finally lose everything. I am the witness of many people who have lost not only money but also their businesses and even houses. This level of gambling is not good for anyone.
Well, I have a total different opinion on this. Whether fun is the reason behind indulging into this game or money, the fact that a gambler can lose money his wealth same. Moreover, even fun seeking gamblers can grow addict if they don’t set any limit to their actions. The safest way to play this game is to gamble with only that much amount which a person can afford to lose.
