Gambling is only so addicting if you are winning unless you are just gambling for fun. When i am playing poker i don't care how much i lose or i win because poker is my favorite game.

"Problem gambling is characterized by many difficulties in limiting money and/or time spent on gambling which leads to adverse consequences for the gambler, others, or for the community."

From my opinion the original is that everybody want to get rich in a day, everyone try to find the shortcut ways to reach their goals in short period of time, gambling is the only solution because we all think like that, so that by keep trying we get addicted of it and than no way left for us to do a good job in real life.

Even A well educated person has become addicted to gambling what else could a normal one, there is no one safe from getting addicted by gambling, but the question is who will be affected by it, nobody knows when or who will be affected by it. and when you do you will find it hard to conquer the addiction you can get from it.

It is only become a problem for most people because of gambling instead of preparing for the future of his family he will just keep on playing his earn money on betting, and instead of working so hard on work and getting a higher position he would just focus on getting the high bets and earn the instant cash in gambling worst thing is getting addicted and sinking deeply in it.

Realization is not an instant that you can realize that you need to stop when you lose. It may take a long process of you will a lot money before you really realize that you need to stop in gambling.

That's not true, there are people who don't need to fry themselves before they could realize things.. There is no such thing as too late for them...  But anyway, to be addicted, one must feel something extreme like too much winning or too much loss..Maybe a euphoria?  Cheesy

You said that there are people who don't need to fry themselves before they could realize things , means, not all people right? Yes, you have a point but for me there are SOME people don't realize their doings in an instant, which is why many people become addicted because what their mind dictates to them, they will just do it.
Maybe I could say that humans does not trust humans and I think our addiction in gambling would prove that, when we see someone sharing his experience that he was once addicted in gambling and the result was never pleasant but still we do gambling even knowing the possible result and in the end we realize in a hard way base on our experience.

Yeah, that everyone does have a curious, if the person is already experiencing an addiction. As well as those who are addicted to gambling, in each they get news or experience someone who loss in gambling, they just listen to it without seeing how they use gambling. So curious and thought is the key of the initial addiction

I don't know why but I always get a feeling to gamble, after then losing my money, I quit for some time and then continue, but I know I will lose my btc Sad

Who addictive?

Maybe it's because of the adrenaline it gives you while playing. There is a mixed emotion of excitement, pain, and worry that you might get busted. When you lost, you want to get back and if you keep losing, you tend to chase those loses. Most of all, gambling is designed for entertainment. The more entertained you are, the more it gets to your system. The trick therefore, is to control that emotion and bet with a system.
not really gambling designed/created for entertainment purpose only , the reality it's feel like gambling created for making money. i bet everyone feel it due they think they always losing money instead win it. they know they will losing money, but the excitement of gambling push them to keep playing .

It is certainly just made for entertainment but most people think of it as for making money because of the instant and big money they can certainly get when winning every bet, and I think even if a person is saying that he or she is playing gambling just to have fun or just to pass time but deep in their hearts they want to win from it because of the desire that all people is not satisfied for what they have!

Well that's true it is why gambling is very addicting at all if a person or gambler is greedy is going to depend in gambling.

And he is going to hope that in gambling he is able to earn big profit from it but instead of winning is just going to lose his capital after all.

And he is going to realize that he needs to stop his addiction.

Yes, gambling target our emotions, and we are getting the feel of what we exactly want to get soothing. That is the reason gambling becoming addiction. Whenever you want to feel comfortable with your emotions then you might go for gambling.

All the above, the entertaining for your emotions might give you some cash too then you must get addicted with that.

That's practically a part of it's nature, it's addicting and annoying in that as well, I guess the only way to avoid or at least is best way to avoid it is avoiding it from the start.

but i think it is because that gambling is such a shortest way of earning money. have less time cunsumer and no hard work physically or mentally. therefore people all the time thinking that they can earn money in a very very short time. it is so attractive that make people compel to do gambling again and again.

Yup, that everyone who does gambling because it wants to get a lot of money in a short time. In addition they also have a curious high enough in any wagers are made.
curious that appears will make a loss. those who are addicted will be pulled by the lure of big profits.

Gambling is only so addicting if you are winning unless you are just gambling for fun. When i am playing poker i don't care how much i lose or i win because poker is my favorite game.
if i ask you that what is the definition of a rich person. a person for me will be rich as i consider that he has a lot money. but he may not be thinking so. according to him will not be so rich in his one thinking. so i can say that no one will stop gambling because that he is a rich person now.

Rich people will don't tell anyone that he may be a rich person, but the people that is from poor family and became rich they are the once who will spread and they will show on facebook that they are rich people now. So i think they are also the once who will also wants to gamble even if they lose money just to show that they are now rich people.

i don't think that is right at all. because someone who becomes rich, it means he or she has tried so hard to become rich, they have busted their ass for every penny they have earned so they will never throw it away that easily on gambling.
but born rich person, aka someone who was born in a rich family don't care about money because he hasn't earned it.

You have a point but there are some people that who came up from poor family then became rich they are more often became snobbish and sometimes more supercilious, and don't deny it. Every person has their own personality and I know a person who became snobbish because of money.

Yes I agree with it if you want to become rich you must burn your eyebrows and you must sweat a lot in able to get your riches in the right time.
There is no easy to success such as playing in gambling. It is not going to make you rich if you are going to do it.
That is way gambling is addicting people tend to think if they are going to win in it they are going to become rich.

Yes you can earn money on gambling on a fast way if your lucky enough thats why people keep on playing and some of them end up on lossing all of their money. Gambling does not require skills or intelligence its a matter of luck just bet and your good to go. Just remember to control your self so that youll get addictive into it.

Because i think it is would depend on your thinking because if you do always believe thwt you will win a big single bet that you keep on eoing it i always tell people who get addicted to it to go to rehab

Right, that all people who are addicted in gambling because at first have thought deep enough to do gambling, so when they do gambling. nothing she could remember, because they focused to get something he's mind in gambling. Agree, Rehab is one way to correct people who are addicted in gambling

Oh i should have to correct my answer,  its a rehab because that certain people really wants to change they should go to rehab because they want to not because they were forced to do so.
