Because you can easily doubling your money on gambling but the risk is you also can easily lose your money on gambling. I think gambling is makes more addicting when you win much money on gambling and it's make you want gambling more.

Gambling is only addicting if you lose your mind trying get rich fast. I know we all are like that sometimes but it's bad to be like that all the time. It's bad for you, it's bad for your loved ones. Just think of it and stop being addicted forever.
Yes, may be emotions can make you quit gambling, if nothing else can. Though I think if you really want to quit gambling then get some proper treatment from doctors and may take sleeping pills to avoid gambling (but strictly with your physician prescription).

Nope you are wrong, emotions will not make people quit on gambling but it is only make them lose more and more without get any recovery. The one that can treat your addictive is only yourself and no one else can do

you just have to accepts some facts about gambling that's all.
as long as people are playing emotionally and not logically they are going to lose money. they have to accept the fact that gambling is risky and you are always at a disadvantage because the house HAS TO WIN otherwise it will be bankrupt.

It is not easy to accept the fact unless you experience it yourself. I dont think that with logic you can think that is a right thing because winning or losing is depends on your luck not based on your emotions. And for house i admit it that is true they always win but not as always because you still have the chance to beat it when you are in lucky
People who believes that winning in gambling can be base only our luck will never gonna be successful in the long run, your mind then will be limited not to explore new ways to increase or improve your winning percentage. I don't think luck will give us a good profit if we regularly play but it could help but not a lot.

i really have no idea why its so addictive, i also want some one to advice me how to stop gambling  i am loosing again and again there and other than that its so addictive that i cant sleep , if i sleep i can see my self gambling in my dreams no idea why and other than that i the worst part i cant give time to my family  Angry Sad
if you want to stop gambling, you can switch trading. It may be the time that you spend will be more beneficial than you use it just to gamble.

Even that is a big gamble because trading can drop in prices drastically. You also never know when you're gonna lose (hit the wrong button) on like a gambling site and you just f up and cant fix it without having more.
All forms that involves money to earn money is a gamble, however there are some investments that we can minimize the risk and increase our chances to make a profit, I agree that trading is a good one because that is driven by the real market movement and if you have the skills you will profit in the long run.

Today while I was reading an article on gambling, I found that most of the gamblers get destructive nature too.
Is it because they have lost money ? I think the addiction is due to the wins we have and if we loose we get destructive. So, what we want win or loose ?

Everyone wants to win but that is not possible every time, majority of times you will loose, but if a person win in primary stage then he becomes greedy and start feeling that he can win more and gets addicted towards  it.

The addicting part is that, when you are winning, you want more, and when you are losing you want to recover.
Haha, either way, you will play in a long time which is good for the gambling site, that's why gambling is designed for people to lose money. haha

You are wrong, a person experiencing an addiction because it has the thought that they can win in gambling and they believed that to be the winner only needs money to do big bets. You know that gambling is very dangerous for people that like it. We are not going to be addicted in gambling when we control yourself well

I think its not design only for lose money its design to give entertainment for people when they are gamble.. and i think not all people here are losing their money in gambling sites they are still making a profit but not all people.. its always depends in our luck if we can make a profit or not.

First we play gambling for just time pass and for enjoyment. Then we see other people win in gambling and feeling very happy, so at that moment we feel greediness, and starts playing gambling with money etc, slowly slowly the gambling becomes addicted. After that once we get addicted with gambling we can't able to leave the activity of gambling.
At first you will treat gambling for fun but if you are a person with lack of self discipline you will end up addicted to gambling. And if you will rich that level it would be hard for you because most like you will play as the slave of gambling that would result to losing your money in the end.
yes many people consider gambling to have fun, but without them knowing they are sometimes difficult to control themselves and can become addictive, because of the pleasure that you will keep playing.

Because it always gives you hope and a lot of promises!  You will gamble and then you will win, then you may want to gamble again hoping to double your money and be fortunate.  And then when you lose, you will bet again hoping that you may win this time.  And when you lose again, you will promise yourself not to do any more gambling. Undecided

"Because it always gives you hope and a lot of promises!" i could see what you mean by that lol it really does, "you can win big here" "you can win big there" it just draws people in further and further until you lose all your money and forget what the word "can" means. You have to realize that it is not a promised win and thats why it gets you addicted, it gives you too much hope which sounds awful.

people always traying to make money in a very very short time. that is the only reason that they dong gambling.
and in a short time the same person can lose all their money. gambling as a hobby, it was omitted. how to get rid of gambling is to be silent on an isolated island with no internet access at all.
Not really that leaving gambling is so hard. I think the cause of addiction is that you rush for money, so find a way to earn money and make it a reason for quitting gambling, as easy as that.
