The other day someone was talking about how he hates gambling as it nearly ruined his life, and within my mind I was like, no it was not gambling that nearly ruined you it was actually you that tried to ruin your life and that's because you refused to gamble responsibly and discipline yourself by not been capable of differentiating money meant for gambling from money meant for other projects in your life.

Why do people blame gamble for their own act of irresponsibility. No one is talking about their own part in their story of bad experience's with gambling, all we get to hear is gambling is bad and a useless activity. Why?

Many people already consider gambling a bad thing to do, knowing that background gambling that it can ruin someone's life, people should have the trait of being responsible gamblers so it won't reach the part that it can ruin your life. I'm pointing out that before you start gambling you already know the risk of being involved with this kind of activity that without any limit and self-control it could be possible for you to get addicted. The thing is people don't want to worsen their situation when telling a story to anyone, they cannot point their finger at themselves as they don't want to lower their pride and dignity. Plus it is easier to blame someone or anything cause that person could help to ease up their feelings but it is still a lie which is much worse.

With all the negative stereotypes gambling has gotten over the years,  many people still fall victim of gambling abuse. Experience they say is the best teacher but people will still not learn from either their own mistakes or other people's mistakes, the bottom line still remains that gambling is bad. Funny enough the gambling industry is growing everyday and thesame people who are tagging gambling bad are the ones promoting it both directly and indirectly. Maybe the gains from winning are just too sweet for them to overlook  Grin .

Anyone who wants to be safe should have a rethink.  If you continue to gamble wrongly, casinos will continue to use you to enrich themselves why you continue with the blame game. With all the accusing fingers pointed at Gambling,  the casinos still have nothing to lose.

I can't stop thinking about people who blame gambling even though gambling is a game that is meant to have fun, and only people who abuse it can't accept gambling and hate it. Someone abuses gambling because they are too careless in gambling, they don't think about the risk of losing, so they gamble without full control, causing an addiction that destroys their own life, and maybe this is why society views gambling badly, but because they see people who are irresponsible, careless and not discipline in gambling so that it influences people's minds to view gambling negatively.

I'm a gambler but when I lose money every time I gamble I don't hate gambling or get emotional with losing and I also don't think I've given up and don't do it again no I don't think like that, but because I realize that gambling is a game, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, so I can accept when I lose and don't blame or hate gambling because that's what gambling is.
This is a normal thing that some gamblers do when they lose at gambling. They will easily blame gambling for making them lose a lot of money without wanting to introspect the mistakes they have made. However, if they want to introspect themselves, the mistake is theirs, and they must realize it and try not to make the same mistake. They are too eager to win from gambling, so they don't pay attention to what they need to do to avoid losing. They really can't be responsible for their gambling activities, so they experience more losses than other people and don't want to realize it. And if they still make the same mistake another day, they will blame it on gambling again, as usual.

Those of us who gamble should be able to realize that we have to accept defeat sincerely and don't need to blame anyone, including gambling. We are responsible for ourselves, so we must realize that we have gambled excessively, and there must be corrections for our mistakes. By realizing these mistakes and being willing to learn from them, we can become wiser in using gambling.

When we fail in life, we are always trying to find someone to put the blame on, we don’t want to hold ourselves responsible for the mistakes we make. When gambling, you have the right to stop gambling whenever you want. If you gamble with a small amount and decide to stop gambling, the casino house won’t force you to continue gambling, you are the one looking for money. That’s why you keep on gambling and you gamble with a large amount of money. Gambling sites never ask anyone to make their gambling site a source of income. When you make a mistake, you have to discover your mistake and correct yourself. Don’t blame others for your mistake.

     -   Until now, most people have had a bad view of gambling, and you can't blame them because many lives have been ruined because of gambling when it wasn't used correctly. That's why some responsible gamblers always say to try to have self-control over our emotions and ourselves, and also don't let us as gamblers get into greediness as well.

Because after all, we can be bad and good at gambling, whether the method we use here is right or wrong. Let's not let gambling control us; instead, let's try to control the gambling we do when we enter casinos.

This is text book definition of victim Mentality. People can't face harsh issues so they blame other things that are influenced with. Its sad that governments can't give enough psychologic treatment to citizens to solve these issues. Gambling, as all kinds of habits, fun and very cool way of lifestyle in my opinion. If you don't like it, you should be able to stop yourself. Nothing you experience is a result of something evil. Its all about your own choices. People should learn to control themselves.
It's always easier to blame someone else for your misfortunes than to take it upon yourself and accept that you're wrong. Unfortunately, it's not easy to accept that you're addicted or that it's purely your fault for losing all your money. This applies to all kinds of addictions, such as alcoholism, drugs, and so on. As you've also mentioned yourself, psychological assistance from the government is inadequate; it can take months to schedule an appointment with a public therapist, while visits to a private licensed therapist are quite pricy, especially for someone who has blown their money away.

The first step in such cases is to identify the problem, which is often yourself, and seek help. There are support groups that may also assist, but it's vital to accept that you're struggling and ask for assistance, even through the public health system, if necessary.

People constantly place the blame on others rather than on themselves. It's funny that when they lose or ruin themselves, things like this only happen to them; the company will then be held responsible. We all gamble and don't complain about any ruination, but avaricious people who want to make millions of dollars overnight will keep placing bets and losing because they are greedy and failed to exercise responsibility. We all know that gambling is so fascinating that it's easy to lose track of concentration. Gambling is simply placing bets; it requires discipline before circulation.

Finding the right time to gamble is essential to enjoying all of this; gambling is a personal choice, so people should stop holding others accountable and start taking responsibility for their actions. It should be simple to distinguish between when to gamble and when not to gamble.

1.Blaming someone else(or something else) for your own failures is easier. That's human nature and you can't change it.
2.Do you try to push the narrative that gambling should not be blamed for gambling addicts ruining their lives?
Yeah, gambling is perfect, it's only you, who should be blamed, when you get addicted and you waste all your money. Cheesy
I think that that the blame should be shared between the gambling industry and the gamblers, who lose self-control and become addicted.
Unfortunately, gambling in one of the industries, that make the most money out of the weak-minded and emotionally unstable people.
This cannot be changed. This is the sad reality. I don't hate gambling in general, but we can't just pretend that the gambling industry is perfect that getting addicted is only a problem for the addicts. Addiction is a problem for the entire society.

sometimes it is the one who represent gambling to us that to blame  Grin because without them/those
we will never enter gambling and may not be infected with its addiction , but of course that is stupid belief as we are
human that must be responsible for our own decision specially in gambling that it is our money  that involves? how come
that to be blame others for our own wrong doings.

Gambler can’t admit the part that they are in fault here and that is a normal reaction of human nature every time they made a mistake or lose the money not unless you really know how to be more responsible. Blaming others are more easy to do so the gamblers can start moving on, this might still be ok but I’d hope that someday you’ll also start accepting that whatever the result you are getting that is from your own action and you should be more aware of it.
it is given mate that when you lose your money of course you will find who will be to blame ?
Gamblers is also a victims here guys because you cannot tell that if you are not addicted , as addiction is
 a worldwide problem.

To make you understand why, you may need to look at another instance. It’s like someone saying that cocaine nearly ruined their life. The point in that context is that the thing being spoken of is addictive. When you get addicted, you lose control, when you lose control, bad things start happening. He may be the one to play the gamble or in my example, consume the cocaine, however that addictive feeling that calls back is the problem. Additionally for gambling, greed also has a role to play because some people get lost in their greed and stake too much money.
The main key on here is that you should not make yourself that get addicted then you should really be just fine. The only thing here is that mistakes is something that would come through into those delusional motive and inputs on gambling on which on the time that you are anticipating on making yourself that getting rich through it then you would really be making yourself that desperate and on the time that you would desperate then you would really be spending money like a mad man on which you would really be gambling out as long you do have the money and as long you dont
able to reach out that goal or target that you do have in mind. There's no other that should really be getting blamed but only into yourself considering that you are the ones who do make
out such actions in the first place and not on other people.

That is very common and human nature, only a few people blame themselves compared to blaming others.
All things that happen to us are the result of our doings and decisions, and if lose our money as we are gambling, it is because we do it in the wrong way. In fact, nobody urges us to gamble but it is our willingness and desire that pushes us to spend money. Whether we lose or not, it is our decision, nobody is involved.

Blaming always happens when we lose but if we win, never even say thank you. Grin
Those are people who doesnt have the habitude of acceptance. It's an important step towards accountability to accept our decisions and choices play a significant role in the outcomes we experienced. Blaming others can be a more instinctive response than introspection that shows immaturity and unreadiness to enjoy risky activities like gambling.

Applying the habit of acceptance into our lives allows for a more constructive approach to out decisions and activities, espcially gambling. Experience of earning money should be a lesson that losing money is also the cause of our decisions and activities. ⁤We can consciously choose to redirect that energy towards self-reflection and personal development by understanding that blaming others can be an instinctive response. ⁤

People's problems persists because they are not willing to blame themselves. Gambling never forces anybody to participate. These people gamble each day on their own will power and don't complain when the money is still on their bank roll. Once the whole money finishes they'll begin to blame it on gambling. We all know that gambling has some emotional connection to the brain, which may have facilitated the gambler to stake money with out control. But, those flaws is of the player's responsibility. As not all gambler face the same trouble. Op's response is excellent and gamblers need to stop derailing the advantages of gambling. Telling people gambling is the reason they went financially broke wouldn't uplift them from their current situation. Searching for a means out is the best move for the person. If he's addicted, getting out of it should be his main priority. Not just putting the blame on gambling. It's not just wrong, but delays the duration it'll take to solve the person's problems.

It is not gambling that is wrong, nor is it gambling that makes us worse off and suffer. Gambling is about fun, many people have problems and stress, they can feel entertained by the gambling they do.

It's not that gambling is wrong, but we ourselves have misunderstood gambling itself, and we ourselves have created this misery and suffering. We often think that gambling can provide benefits and can lead us to a gateway to financial success. Until in the end this assumption encourages us to behave badly when playing it. We think that gambling is about profit, so we bet large amounts and spend the money we have on gambling, because we believe that if we win, the amount of money we get will be many times the amount we spent before. . We often believe these lies and these lies are what we often do.

When it comes to gambling you shouldn't expect anyone to blame their wrong actions rather they put all the blame on gambling and funny how they keep blaming gambling for their reckless life and cannot resist the force of gambling.
I don't think anyhow has blamed gambling in this forum but addiction should be controlled to avoid loss, I understand why people always want to paint gambling bad because they never wanted the profit they expected and it can lead to heartbreak most especially if the person expected much from the bet, that's a normal feeling for everyone not just in the gambling aspect, when we expected much from a business or job and never earn any profit, we keep blaming the business and forgetting the mistake we make during the process. No one actually said gambling is bad but angry people will speak against gambling, why not withdraw from gambling if you're not feeling happy gambling.

Some people be like " gambling ruined my life", "crypto ruined my life", or "real estate ruined my life" like it was not their decision to it. Gambling in general doesn't mean to ruin someone's life, that's the least I can say though we have heard a lot of stories from fellow gamblers, but they don't take it easy and responsibly, so at the end there's nothing or no one they can blame but their self. But somehow, I get the idea that they blame it to something else just to cope up with the fact that it's like never their mistake to do it, defense mechanism of people who refuses to reflect on themselves.

Just bet/stake to entertain, it is not so much to gamble, just don't wish a yacht with your $10 wagers.

Some people choose to blame others in life instead of accepting responsibility for their own actions, which sounds like the case you describe. I've seen it is definitely more prevalent in addicts, when it comes to gambling they can often build up so much rage from losing when they should be reflecting that they kept throwing away all their money trying to chase a big win. You'll often see it in reviews left for gambling sites, where they blame rigging and cheating, but the reality is - most casinos are absolutely open and up front about how they operate, they tell you that they'll take a few cents out of every bet you wager on average, which means if you play long enough you'll hand it all over.
