I'm feeling great after everytime that i'm gambling. But things are worst when i lost much. Trying to quit once or twice but it doesn't work. I back to the gambling way in a few weeks later. Now i'm not resist it, just try to keep my bet is really low. Like 1 or 2$ for fun.

It is a sign that you are already a gambling addict. You can control your bets this days but it doesn't mean that you are now away from being an addict. Sooner or later your desire will eat you. You will then again bet bigger ammounts, just like how you stop before and you can't resist then you are back to your habit.

In my opinion, gambling is addictive when everything about it becomes "fun" and you are getting more comfortable with it, like thinking that it is not hurting your money and it is not eating your time.

It is not for fun if you still think to win. It will definitely be for fun if you dont really want to win anymore. It sounds crazy but this is the truth. If you dont care anymore, that is when you have realized that you cant win and you wont try to win anymore. All that left to do is to play for fun and enjoy it and hopefully you will be able to get out of it

I think that is not right, our main purpose to gamble is to win because when we are winning that is the only time when we can also experience the fun.
Although we are obviously gonna win in the long run but we cannot erase the fact that our ultimate fun can be achieve especially when we win a big amount of money, playing for fun is gambling only based on your limit and you are not doing it regularly.

Winning money through gambling triggers chemicals to be produced in the brain hyping us up.
This can be addicting in the long run and could ruin your life.

Better be a casual bettor than an addict. Keep the winnings and move on.

Wow that's scientific fact, being a casual bettor will also lead us to become addict. What we have to do to avoid addiction is to know that gambling can make us an addicted one in no time and don't gamble all the time. Have some life, go outside and do some other activities.

There will be so much time that will be wasted if we will be addicted in gambling because it will make us do unnecessary things just for us to continue gambling. We know that time management is very important but the moment we get addicted we will only think of gambling all the time and since gambling does not give us the edge to win, this will always end to be not in favor of us.

If we will erase that greediness for money and we will remain focus on doing gambling for fun then maybe even if we lose but it will not ruin our life.

Time wasted and others opportunity that should be for you will be gone. It's your choice if you will be addicted to gambling, there are people who gambles extensively yet they are still professional mannered and they know how to deal with their priorities.

I seriously don't know. It is so addicting to me also, casino slots and poker the most. It was the worst when I was 18 because everything was so new to me when it became legal for me to play. Now it's a bit better. Roll Eyes

in gambling we feel free to do what we want, we have too much choices and we feel that we can really win at any time.

Why is it so addictive?

It is because gambling is an easy way to earn money. It is addicting because gambling is fun, and it's a good way to socialize and relieve stress. However, gambling can cause stress too if you will lose a lot of money. It's difficult to win in gambling because most games require luck to win.

Gambling is never a part of entertainment or fun. How can it be a fun when people are coming into casinos and living with weeping in their hearts for the money they have just lost? Gambling is harmful and it eats you like anything. You shouldn’t be doing it. Save your money for some other better investment and earn more profit that is stable can help you to grow more and more.

Why is it so addictive?

I think the problem is you have nothing to do and you find gambling as a pastime whenever you feel bored. That is one of the reasons why I think some people turn to gamble and get addicted. Try to find alternatives to spend your time so you can avoid gambling.

Gambling is an most interesting and fun game in the world, it based on luck and time everyone will easily attracted by gambling.so gambling is most addictive for everyone.

Addicted to gambling is initially started with fun making only. After that the gambling continued with small betting and we want to get back the lost amount from where we lost policy. Some time we win small amount and it gives you confident that we can also win and gambler stick with that physiologically and not able to come out of it also some person go extreme level and addicted.

Because gambling provides a dream to make money easily and very quickly. Some of them maybe successful, but certainly most are money and time wasters. And because it's done continuously, in his mind to make money only from gambling and gambling. That's what causes make peoples get gambling addiction.

That is a wrong thinking, gambling does not provide easy money if you do not have the skills, you need to be smart and be talented to be consistent in the long run in order to make gambling as a source of income. It's addicting for some because we keep trying and trying and we make a lot of strategy to win but it's still not enough to make us profitable, the end is result is always not in our favor as we might be bankrupt which is worse if we don't stop on time.

You just need a bravery and you are good to go to gamble , nothing else.
I just feel it is completely bullshit when people talking about skills could earn you easy money and a nice winning .
Luck is everything in gambling , just give it a try to gamble continuously everyday with your skills , still it will only gives you a loss.

If you have a clear cut plan i don't think it will be so addicting because you know what you want and what you don't want in the first place and you can easily stop or start depending on your intended target.

Lol having a target , limitation on how much you should stop in case you lost/win won't work.
Gambling since first day its found is addictive , those people who come to gamble have to accept the risk to become an addict later.
To expect to get an instant cash especially when you are in urgently needed make people think gambling is completely addictive.

It could works, actually that is what we have to do. Addiction is just a risk, the risk is something that is not certain to happen, it can still be avoided. If you think it will not work at least to you it mean you lose.

I don't get it Huh

, what do you mean with that bolded part of your opinion.
Become an addict in gambling is a sure thing when you do it in regular time , i have no doubt about it.
Set a limit just make you stop for a while to continue it again later , which means there is no big different but delay your losing for a while.

No. its not just because you have put a limit then you can say that addiction is controllable. Gambling is really addictive since most game creators have put style prior to game designing to enhance fun and thrill in every game that makes the player triggers it good feelings as excitement in every win that it have.

It's the reason why we have to be aware that every time we gamble we need to know our limitations. It is all starting there, if you are not conscious of your limitation that will start to make you addicted. You win without thinking of limitation and you gamble without limitation. That's likely very possible to give you an angle of becoming addicted soon as gambling is simply addicted when we are winning.

some people know their limit but they try to push that limit over them. Sometimes people that keep pushing themselves doesnt know when to stop and it is bad which could make them heavily addicted someday. I have been getting through this stage already so I know better than most people how it feels to be addicted when you are pushing over your limit

They know they limit but they can't control their minds. It's hard to control when you are in that moment that you are thinking that gambling will help you to survive when you are in times of needs. In this time if you are feeling the same way like those gamblers better to shutdown your computer or things will get worst.

That means they dont know their limit right. If they know their limit then they should stop once they reach that limit. Some people keep saying that they cant control it. I know it is hard but when they have tried their best they should be able to do it. Just like me, I reached this state after keep on doing it and following the limit that I set

I think we could not specify any answer for this question that why is gambling so addicting. The thing is that gambling becomes an addiction for people due to a number of different reasons. The addict has his or her own reason indeed. Some are addicted to it because they want to earn money in a huge amount without putting much efforts and other are only addicted to the fun they do experience when they gamble.

when a person regularly gambles in long hours or short, they are forming that habit that they think is normal but indeed it is not. So, when you play regularly, it is just a matter of time that you get addicted to gambling.

This kind of habit is not a healthy habit. We need to destroy this kind of bad habit or else we are going to stuck with it the whole time. Sometimes the best action is not the action that needs to be taken instantly but to make it become habit as well. We cant stop right away but we can do it little by little that is why it is best to play for fun first

That is quite true because many aren't serious about it and they go into gambling to pass time like you said and so they tend to loose money unknowingly and unwillingly and so when things turn out bad they will continue to attempt to recoup the lost money and this is what normally plunged them into gambling addiction.

the circle in gambling are so real , you want money - get in to gamble - lost far from your expectation - keep playing until you get back what you have lost and things going nowhere but keep make you miserable .

don't get lured with anything that too good to be true , gambling provide it and people act so naive.
