it is contagious.. i'd give u that, it is how i started and there is no vaccine so far.
It's funny when you put it like that. Grin
There is no vaccine though because we believe we can hit it big if we keep playing. Aside from that, gambling is fun (I don't know if it's just me or a general feeling). We just have to know how to gamble so it doesn't become addictive. Like you said "self-control"

winning requires strategy, money management and a bit of luck.
I believe however good you are at gambling you require a certain percentage of luck to win. Some days everything just goes my way, if people see they would think I'm a guru at gambling but it was just cheer luck, nothing special. Somethings I just listen to my intuition. Don't get me wrong, strategy is a big factor but so is luck.

I think that maybe this question might have repeated over time but still I was Saying that I have seen that when we loose almost 50% of our portfolio in loss than we get nervous and we don't know what to do. As we work hard and make our lives better but we end up loosing our money. So I think these cloud be main symptoms. And these are listed below as these are according to me.
1. First things is that we want all in all to cover our losses in just one bet.
2. We use leverage that is more than enough to blow account in matter of minutes and that is very bad.
3. We don't know what to do.
4. We get addicted to gambling and that is bad.
5. We become frustrated and some people end up loosing their lives cause they don't have any choice.


By the way don't Roast me 🙂😜

These options vary from player to player and your discipline deternmines all of them. As a gambler when you enter a loss that you never expected, the first thing you need to do is to take a break and the timing depends on how much you lost, if you lost big, take long break and get yourself together and if its a small, take the break but it should be short time and rethink how you can make back more money and not how to make back the loss, if you do that, you will become attach to the past and that will not make you win games. Time heal us and having a break outside gambling will make you recover from losses quickly.

I don't think recovering losses in one bet will work because we can get bigger losses too.
If it is because of gambling, we better not have too high hopes of winning a lot of money because we will have a hard time getting it.
And that can frustrate us in our pursuit of victory in gambling which is not easy.
If you play gambling, you should not really have the desire to chase victory and you should only play for fun and stop immediately after getting it.

I think you should replace the word "symtoms" with "warning signs" ....because that is what it is.

1. If you cannot stop thinking of gambling, then you are already half way down the rabbit hole.
2. If you spend money meant for other important expenses on gambling, that should raise a red flag
3. If you neglect your family and friends and spend too much time on gambling, you should start to worry.
4. If you start chasing losses and act recklessly with huge bets, then take a break.

Those are just some of the warning signs, people should look out for, when it looks like someone is having problems with gambling addiction.
The most important warning sign for me is not having a gambling plan or budget. Some people don't have control over their gambling habits because they don't have restrictions or guidelines. I see people in casinos that are always attracted to people's bets. Immediately you tell them that these numbers are sure bets, even if they have exceeded their limit, they will still stake again without considering the consequences it will have on their finances. If you gamble within your limits losses will not be too painful and it will not also lead to chasing losses because you are not desperate.

I want to also add that one of the warning signs is when you borrow money because you want to use it to gamble.
Another sign is when one abandons his official duty and spends his time gambling.

What symptom do you mean, whereas we know that people who are addicted to gambling are usually because they are never satisfied with the results of their winnings so there is no reaching a certain point to stop, it all depends on how people control themselves, gambling addiction can still be cured just the same with drug addiction, change the mindset in playing gambling slowly it will cure gambling addiction within yourself. Don't get frustrated keep trying to think positive  Wink

Going through your list it all sounds like very easy mistakes that all of us can avoid. I would put your 2.) point as the most important mistake that should be avoided, never use borrowed money when gambling. In the movies it might look nice when someone uses leverage to make a huge profit, but that isn't the real world and we are more likely to lose large sums of money than to win. Your 1,3 and 5. point  all sound very similar and can be avoided of we are using a gambling strategy. For years now I use a martingale approach to gambling that helps me a lot to know exactly how much I should be betting each round. The more we gamble the harder it is to keep track of our situation and make the right decision, a good strategy can help a lot here.

The main symptom of losing gambling is when greed has taken over the minds and hearts of gamblers, so that we cannot stop gambling even though we have won, and most people do the same thing after being greedy, increasing leverage and wanting their money back, I realized when I pondered why I always lose at gambling, it turns out that what causes me to lose at gambling and continuously is that we have greed within us.
I'm sure that some of you also feel and do the same thing, especially in playing slots.
what I was about to type, we jump in on gambling because of the price tag and often times we end up not calculating our moves properly, we all have times we've lost a game or two, no doubt but when it's continuous, our strategy is questionable.

Greed is something that makes many people experience losses in gambling. They lose control of themselves because they are too hasty and greedy to be able to profit from their game, even though they have already lost a lot before. Greed and lack of self-control are the main reasons why most people lose and even go bankrupt. Even if they can manage their game and their finances and can manage their emotions, I think gambling is something fun.

I feel like this totally depends on individuals. Both most common symptom is to seek covering ALL losses at couple of takes. It is very very dangerous gambler mistake. In a game where you have pretty limited chance its nearly impossible to cover your losses in such quick move. Gambling is not working it can't guarentee profits if you try hard.
On the other hand, I also think its common to observe that some gamblers have anger management issues. If a person doesn't have enough patience, should never gamble at all.

Strategy in winning? Are you kidding?  Grin

If winning requires strategy, then every gambler will learn the strategy because no one like to lose money to bookmakers. A bit of luck is understatement, luck carry the higher percentage when it comes to gambling with a little bit of strategy IMO.

no, not kidding. that's disgusting..  Embarrassed

the only gambling i do is poker and sports betting.

and it does requires a good strategy, like when to cut losses, make book, etc.

luck can only carry you so far but u do need it.

but so far, i don't see any "symptoms" in me.

maybe i am immune like 'ellie'.

Don't recognize the symptoms but rather recognized the problem right away.

One step of making the solution is to recognized the problem, not symptoms.

We already know that users addicted to gambling because of obvious reasons. That's what we need to solve.

If losing 50% of the deposit amount on our gambling has made us nervous, it actually proves that we are gamblers who chase victory, so it is not easy to accept the fact that the balance has decreased. it would be better for the player to stop playing and no longer gamble because he will later become depressed because he sees his money being lost at gambling.
When a player has focused on winning, the pressure he gets will be greater than if just playing for fun, it's not easy to be happy when we lose, but at least losing doesn't make us lose control because gambling is only for fun, not money, so when you lose, it will easily forget defeat and will not be interested in pursuing what has been lost.

Regardless of anything, gamblers get out of hand resulting in addiction because of the inability of becoming a responsible gambler.

Winning or losing doesn't have any difference as gamblers really want to gain "more and more and more" money as much as possible.

When winning, instead of taking a break, still will continue, when losing, will do anything just to bounce back. If only a gambler can think of the best possible ways after winning or losing, there might be a chance not to fall into a much worst situation.

Well, gambling is a game of the mind, one must apply wisdom when gambling, before going into gambling, one should already know that there will be loses, and prepare adequately for it, only but a few thinks in life comes out as a win - win for people, it is not so in gambling, gambling is a  win or lose game, there is no third option, it is my believe that any body who feels matured enough to handle any kind of winning in gambling, such person should also be matured enough to handle loses as well, because in gambling, loses and wins go hand in hand.

Yeah I would say that most of what you have written is pretty accurate.  I think when it comes to gambling and gambling losses, you simply have to be prepared to take big losses if you want to try and win big.  It's kind of like investing in the stock market, the higher the risk, the higher the reward.  The worst thing people tend to do is bet big to try and make up for losses but betting big on something they don't totally have faith or knowledge in...just trying to quickly (and slopilly)make your money back.

I never get nervous even if I am losing way more than 50% of my bankroll.  The reason is that I only play the money I can afford to lose.  If we are playing with the free money, with no obligation attached, it doesn't matter whether we lost it or not since it will not affect our day-to-day expenses.  Often times those who got nervous are people that play with compromised money.  They play with the money that has already been allocated to the household's budget or payment for bills.  But in case a person feels uncomfortable, he can always end his session to preserve the remaining balance and play another day.

Those five things you mentioned would be the possible scenarios that you can experience whenever you're on the losing end and it's best to have some form of solutions that you can keep in mind because it's going to happen a lot of the time as losses happen frequently in gambling no matter what.

Aside from the five on your list, the other thing I did back then whenever i'm losing badly is instead of stopping I would extend my session impulsively then I would slowly lose my perception of time and realize that i've spent several hours just from gambling.

This symptoms night appear a little too late since you are already playing and there are things that is beyond your control but if you remain focus and responsible, this can be curable. Addiction should be your main focus, and to avoid this one you should gamble only with your limited budget and your good discipline. Gambling can be very risky, this can also be a life threatening if left unattended, so address the issue right away and just enjoy playing.
Make yourself aware on what you are doing, the wrong thing on which most gamblers do commit out is that on the time that they do engage on gambling, they soon lose control
of theirselves and this is where bad decisioning would happen.If you are that type of person who do have that self awareness as always when it comes to things on what they are
doing then you wouldnt really be get easily addicted with gambling. You do know that you do have the limits and something that you should really be following
on or else you do now on what are the consequences.
