What makes people so addicted to gambling?

Do you know anyone who is heavily into gambling?

i am Curious to know the different views about this above questions

People do get easily addicted with gambling specially on the moment that you do able to play and win up instantly then it will really be moulding up that kind of impression that it was really just that easy.
This is where you will really be starting on increasing up that kind of involvement or dealing with it even if it means that you will really be adding up even more amount that you will really be using into.
Everything will really be that coming up with someones mind, because if you are just simply that accepting on what it is or simply treating it up on how it should be like just for entertainment then you
wont be finding yourself that easily get addicted with it since you are really that wary about the possibilities that you might that get addicted.

It all matters on how on someones perception yet you will really be basing up yourself into the actions you are taking on what are the things you do really mind of about it.
Just be careful about dealing with it because if you are a type of person whose really that emotionally impulsive then gambling isnt really that for you.
Just be sure that you are really that treating on the way it should really be treated up.

Firstly money and secondly games, some people think of gambling as fun and a stress reliever for them, where when they gamble they feel like all the problems in worldly life feel like they are gone without a burden, that's where they feel there is enjoyment when gambling.

Have you ever seen people gambling sitting at a table or in front of a laptop from morning to night, only time is spent gambling, those are those who are addicted to gambling, they are no longer aware of their responsibilities, gambling can make them calm and enjoyable, that's gambling and addicted.

I think that even those who say that they gamble for fun experience quite a tangible stress from losses, so it is difficult for me to understand what kind of entertainment is being discussed. I could understand if it was a distraction from other things, it would be more like the truth. If you spend all day in front of a monitor in a casino, then this is already an addiction, unless it brings in enough money to make gambling your main source of income.

Gambling addiction is psychological and it only progresses overtime if not properly dealt with. In my opinion people get addicted to gambling because they must won a huge amount probably as a beginner, it can be very addicting when you see how easy it is to make a lot of money in less than a minute, but just as it's easy to win it's way easier to lose everything. Another thing that makes people addicted is when they get trapped in the cycle of chasing their losses, this is probably the worst condition to find yourself, once you get entagled with this it will be difficult to quit.

Exactly, to add more based on what I also observe, some players get addicted because they draw their gambling motivation from stories of top winners that earned a huge sum of money from gambling and because they want to successful, they will make sure to do anything best to be successful and before you know it, they are trapped already.

In reality it is so, most of the gambling addicts are due to getting a very large win as a beginner, even my friend. Some of my friends started to become addicts just because they saw their friends get a very big win, especially when they started playing, they got a very big win like you said, this kind of thing has happened a lot in my neighborhood. So, i think that this is all because there is no awareness of the impact that occurs when starting to gamble. The thing that everyone should be aware of is self-awareness and learning about the impact of each action that will be taken.

I agree with your opinion in terms of reality. Most gamblers continue to gamble to get jackpot or more money and become addicted. I also see the same situation where people sell their assets in the hope of getting more money and continue gambling and end up with huge losses. In casinos or gambling boards where the chances of winning are very low people bet their potential money and mostly lose which makes them tempted to gamble for more time. I think to prevent yourself from possible gambling addiction, you should limit yourself to a certain time frame so that you do not waste your time on excessive gambling. Allocate limited money for gambling. The most important thing is to increase your own awareness through which you can prevent excessive waste of your money and time and at the same time get rid of the addiction.

It is a very common thing that where there is a connection with money, people must be at the forefront. But not everyone gambles for money. Because there are many who like entertainment. You will not find such people in the world who don't like some sports. If you can bet on your favorite sports, the excitement increases further. However, the reason why people are addicted to gambling is greed for money. There are many gamblers who try to focus on their income through gambling. And for this reason, most gamblers are addicted to gambling.

Many people around me are now gambling, but their gambling is not open. Everyone who gambles tries to keep their gambling secret. Only those I know they share about their gambling activities.

People can get addicted to gambling in various ways, some of them deliberately lose by gambling and then enter gambling again and again to recover that money and this is the sign of that addiction. I have seen some people leave their families because of gambling, and I have seen them leave the village and even leave their living place and go to a lonely place. Gambling addiction harasses people the most because when a person enters gambling, he does not immediately reach the stage of addiction, he gradually wins in gambling and loses, and this continues for a long time.
At one stage, the gambler slowly takes gambling as a profession and starts facing losses immediately, later he gambles more and more to recover his losses, but loses more money because he entered gambling for income. That is why many people get addicted in this way. Usually, more people face losses in gambling.

Gambling addiction is a complete package to completely destitute a gambler. Gambling addiction gradually destitute a gambler from beginning to end in various ways.
When a gambler falls into gambling addiction, he does not even realize how much negative impact it is having on him. Especially when a gambler loses money in gambling, and later tries to recover that loss by gambling, this is basically gambling addiction.
Gambling addiction makes a gambler a neglected person in his family and society. Even at one point, he loses everything and loses his mental balance, and at one point he indulges in bad deeds like theft.
So you should stay as far away from it as possible, and be careful at all times...

There are a lot of reasons, and every gambler has their own reason why they become addicted to gambling. one of the main reasons is a lack of self-control and the dopamine effect that gamblers want to experience over and over again. Another one is false hope; they are hoping to make gambling a source of income, which in reality they cannot.

I have some friends who become addicted to gambling, and its not a good feeling to see your friends suffer from gambling addiction, but they've already overcome it, and its not easy for the families; they have to work hard to get their relative out of addiction.

i am Curious to know the different views about this above questions

maybe it is a person who has such great self-confidence in gambling like those who think that they can win in gambling even though the gambling they do ends in defeat but because there is a thought that they will still be able to win in the next gambling then they will gamble again, this kind of thinking can make someone repeat their actions even though it has made them lose, even the more they lose, the greater their enthusiasm to win indirectly makes them gamble non-stop as a result making them addicted. Someone who is already trapped in an addiction tends to find it difficult to stop, it is unlikely that they can stop and recover, many people who are addicted to gambling only end up in a miserable condition.

This is true because I have experienced this before. I used to have this great confidence confidence about my ability to analyse sport matches, so this triggered me to place bets since I have great skills. Unfortunately, my experience in analysing matches didn't help me whenever I place bets, yet I never stopped placing bets because I believed winning was near. I migrated from analysing matches to chasing losses and finally to getting very uncomfortable when I don't gamble. I'm glad I realised on time that I was getting addicted and now I'm fine.

Sometimes, gambling addiction doesn't just happen because of the money involved, people get carried away by overconfidence, hope and even the fun involved. Yea, people are different and different circumstances can make them addicted. The most important thing is realising when you are crossing your boundaries, this will help you take measures to control it when you still can.

Lack of self-realisation about gambling is the reason why people easily get into addiction. It can be a close friend, a friend of a friend, or a person who lives next door who turns rich through gambling. One could've heard this through someone around or through direct conversation. Soon after that, a person who doesn't have a good understanding of gambling believes in making themselves rich through gambling. In most cases we can see such incidents that drive people who aren't used to gambling. The reality will be understood only when they start losing beyond their limits. At any cost, one should not get triggered to gamble upon someone else's success in gambling.

Some of them are because they do not have other activities so they continue to gamble and besides, they have a target to have money in gambling so they continue to gamble every day. There may be many more factors that make someone become a gambling addict, including because they have experienced many wins in gambling, so they think or assume they can continue to do it and or get it even though in reality, their efforts that continue to be made do not always give good results. Thus, they have gone too deep into gambling, making it difficult for them to avoid gambling because gambling has been considered their main activity every day.

There is or should be a limit to everything we do in life, for example, eating food has a limit, drinking water has limit, speed in cars, motorcycles, bicycles, even aeroplanes has a limit, I am actually focusing on the positive things we do.

If we are to go over to the Negative things we do, you should also know that, drinking alcohol has a limit, smoking has a limit.. Basically every thing we do in life, whether good or bad, should have some limit, over doing any of this things could conote to being addicted to that thing.
Like some who eats too much, drinks to much, smokes too much and so on, gambling too much than normal is equal to being addicted to it.
So, imagine a scenario where you have just $10 with you, you are very hungry and need to buy food, but then, you also feel like gambling, and its also possible to play gambling games with the $10, and without any form of second thought, you went straight to gambling with the money - it means you are a gambling addict.

Or think of another scenario where you don't have money to gambling, and you are so uncomfortable about it, uncomfortable to the extent that if you find someone else's money kept someone, you don't mind stealing it to use it for gambling, that also means you are a gambling addict.

A lack of discipline is the main reason. Addicted gamblers often don’t follow responsible methods and let emotions guide them instead of logic. Gambling should be for entertainment, but without control, it can lead to serious problems. The hope of a big win gives people the idea they can change their lives, but I’m not sure if this hope is what they truly need

It might be more of an escape from life’s problems and a habit that becomes hard to break (for irresponsible players)...

Who bumped this thread hahah this is an old thread from the 2015 and the OP maybe already inactive for a years hahhaha

But if someone asked me What makes people so addicted to gambling? is because the feel of winning and chasing the losess only both of this is the big reason that I know. Lets say you win a gambling you gonna feel "oh my god this is easy money then lets go do it more" but there is also other reason "Dang it I already deposit so much and I want all my money atleast back from all the that loses" and the result from both of it you get addicted

I will share the story about one of my friends and his gambling habit.

The guy has enough money, but loves to get something that is inexpensive for free. For example recently he needed new mobile charging wire. It cost $10-15. He can easily afford to buy it. But instead he loves to make a deposit to a casino, play few low risk bets to win those $10-15, and get that wire for free. I think he is quite sick because of such a habit. So what makes people addicted to gambling - one of he reason is it allows them to be flexible with their expenses.

It's good if your friend can earn money by gambling, there is nothing wrong with his habit, it's just his beliefs, people have different characters. I have friends who earn quite a lot, but some spend almost everything they earn and do not deny themselves anything, others try to save on many things and create a fortune, because they are more comfortable this way and they want to be sure of the future. I do not condemn any of these lifestyles, everyone does what they like, and your friend is definitely not addicted to gambling, he just does not like to spend his money.)

But he is doing it all the time. Every little unnecessary purchase he tries to cover by winning it through gambling. For example to get those $10, he has deposited several hundreds to win it after few clicks. I dont think that it is worth risk like that to cover tiny expenses. That is not greed, because all other purchase he does "normally". We can call it a habit, or light version of addiction.
