What I heard about how people get addicted to gambling is due to the fact that people who gamble is thinking that gambling can make them rich. Also the excitement and thrill when they gamble. Sometimes there are people who only gamble to escape reality with a promise of possible fortune. Almost anyone can be attracted by a promise of wealth. And with it can draw people to get addicted.

Everyone have the same purpose mostly in making money instantly in gambling.
That is the most attractive factor , you cannot avoid about that too right? Really a simple way to live this short life.
But they are mostly did not responsible too , and just creates a lot more problem.

Not everyone but majority starts gambling in the search of money. They forget a simple fact that in this life, nothing can be achieved by simply doing nothing. Once they win few games, their greed increase and become addict after that once they are considered as regular customer, the house tries to steal all of his wealth. He starts losing which give birth to desperation. Then they try to recover their loss.

Because our brains are already overshadowed by big dreams that gambling present us so we go back to gamble. Lose or win just the same, we will keep coming back and back, until finally we realize that much has been lost yawning because of gambling.

We are brainwashed, is this what are you trying to say? Probably yes, because we keep on thinking that the big wins from other gamblers can possible happen to us. And that's why everyone of us are keep on gambling and it is making us an addicted gambler. This is not new, gambling is very addicting just like the usual type of addiction from other things and I don't want to mention any of them, you all know it.

It is the temptation of the money gambling offers. A study about addiction have concluded that gambling addiction is far worse than being a druggy

The temptation of money isn't with gambling only but I didn't knew it that gambling offers far worse addiction the drugs. Thanks for this information as I thought that addiction in drugs is more severe and worse, do you have any link on that study? Gambling is just really addicting the way it is and it's naturally making each and everyone of us addicted and wants us to gamble most of the time.

That's correct, the temptation of trying to make more money and especially trying to recover what has been lost gets people nose deep into gambling and they become addicted.

I'm totally agree with you. I have such example in my family and that's just terrible how far people may go with the wish to return everything that has been lost already.
The most sad think that there is not a chance to escape this and hard forms of gambling addiction, unfortunately, uncover itself when it's too late.

You did it in your family? There is a chance to escape this addiction and you just need to remember that gambling is not forever. If you want to have a decent life and not in gambling, think on how many times you fall in gambling addiction and think if you want to stay living in that miserable life of failure, only if you are keep on failing in gambling because some addicted gamblers are having good fortune.

Not everyone share the same purpose. Perhaps that you think it is the only purpose from gambling but for me there are something different. For me it will be to have fun. As long as I am still having fun then I think that Im fine with that purpose but for some people they dont feel satisfied unless they win alot of money everytime they gamble

Not all but majority tries to make money out of it. They want to become rich overnight. It is true and many gamblers have confessed it also. I have heard more stories of profit seeking gamblers than fun seekers. Definitely, if someone can make money without doing anything, he will take the chance no matter how much risk it involves. Gambling offers this chance.

We want to be deep and we don't want to be a loser and the saddest thing is we don't want to lose those money forever so the tendency is that we keep on gambling again. And this makes us addicted and we are not fully aware that this is real gambling, that we are starting to become addicted. Some will say, they are just trying to recover their lost money but they are not fully aware they are now addicts.

Why is it so addictive?

Gambling is one of the most addictive things that people can be addicted to. One of the factor is that person experience of an early big win. The buzz is winning such a large amount can sometimes be overwhelming and the fact it arrives so early means that player thinks it is easy to land such wins than what it is in reality.

Gambling is all about money and dude, money is very attractive. It can make your enemy a friend because in today’s world, you can buy anything from money. Some people may deny it and for them, I have a suggestion to see the practical world.

Furthermore, anything that is advised to avoid gets more attention. The more we resist it, the more it will tempt us.

Yes it is really addicting. There is reason that people become addicted to gambling, there’s a case that they become addicted because they choose it to be. I mean, they know they will be addicted if they continue playing without thinking what will be the outcome. And also gambling is addicting because it is giving entertainment to others.

You are correct. It is just like with smoking - people who are just starting to smoke knows very well that it is addicting and yet still go on and smoke until as expected hooked to smoking addiction.

But they know that it is harmful. But addiction is not something that can be easily removed. So for those who do not have a sense of addiction then suppose gambling as an entertainment, it will help them to stay away from the nature of strong addiction.

True, totally agreed on you dude. Once you become an addict into something especially in gambling it will really be hard for that person to give it up 100%. Ever since gambling was really addictive. That's why, as much as ealier if we know that ourselves is getting to that level of addiction of course we must avoid gambling for awhile.

The media and advertising agencies understand the psychology of gambling and often portray a stylish, sexy, fashionable image of gambling. In film and TV, we see characters enjoying a night at the casino or an afternoon at the races. There is often a suggestion of 'high society' and attending at 'a place to be seen'. Gambling is accepted as part of this country's culture and as such is widely articipated in (with varying frequency) by the majority of the population. Some young people are introduced to gambling by learning to play card games with their parents at home, maybe we go the bingo with friends on a Friday night or meet after school at the amusement arcade.

As long as I am still having fun then I think that Im fine with that purpose but for some people they dont feel satisfied unless they win alot of money everytime they gamble

I think it's the individual targets we set for ourselves that makes us addicts or not. Some huge targets can increase your greed and make you gamble senselessly and loose out in the long run and do I think the best way is to set realistic and achieve able targets and follow it up with a plan.

Typically, it is the greed that takes us back to gambling even after losing a lot. We think that maybe luck has enough on us now and the next shot will bring victory. It never happens in reality. Except this, anything that we do very often trains our brain and body accordingly so it becomes need of these two also. That is why addicts can't stop themselves even if they know the consequences.

Gambling offers the opportunity to become rich almost without doing anything and those who like easy money will come back again to try again. You need to set a limit for the game in order not to lose everything.

The opportunity that only few can get but or nobody ever did not unless you gamble by buying a lotto ticket and got lucky to win the jackpot price. The irony of life even if we know what will be the effect of gambling still we try our luck with this concept.

Only few gamblers are able to make money through gambling and it is because they have luck with them. Otherwise, majority fails rather ruin their lives in trying to become rich by placing bets.

If it was this easy, then at least one fourth of the world would have been millionaire already but some people like to try out their luck every time.

One factor that is a reason for gamblers becoming addicted, particularly early on in their gambling life, is the experience of an early big win. The buzz is winning such a large amount can sometimes be overwhelming and the fact it arrives so early means that the player thinks it is easier to land such wins than what it is in reality.
Failing To Monitor Wins and Losses.This is not something that every gambler will do. Not every player hits the tables at the casino and keeps detailed notes on what wins and losses they endure throughout the course of the session. However, it is important for players to keep a rough idea of how much they have won and lost. Unless this is done, the players might put more focus on the wins and soon forget the losses they suffer. This can create a warped interpretation of how destructive their gambling habits have been.

Gambling is very interestingly thought out and makes many return again despite the losses. You just need to learn to control yourself and then there will be no problems with it.
