Gambling is the biggest mistake I made
when you realize that follow gambling is the biggest mistake? you still have the opportunity to correct these errors
That's most of the gamblers mistakes here, especially those who have average and even poor financial status, we tend to be addicted to gambler because we consider it as an opportunity to earn huge amount of money but in reality we always go broke, in effect we chase our bets because we want to win back our loses without knowing that we are already near in the hole of total bankruptcy.
for those who are still trying to get back the money that has been lost on gambling, I hope you can get back the lost. although the chances are very small.
Well i am very hopeful for you guys for I believe that you will be able to make it and get it back for the the lost. Most of the people say if there is a will there is a way, don't loose faith if you are good at it you don't have to worry. Gambling will really tear apart a person put yourself together and there you have it. If I were in your place I might do the same thing for there is no chance of me loosing every now and then this is very important on me and I have to focus this time.

neuroscience and genetics claims that gambling and drug addiction are similar.

Yes they are indeed very similar with one another you can always say that because in gambling addiction you can see the very similar traits an addicted person behavior, and any psychologist would say the same thing that gambling really is addicted like drugs!

I don't agree with this at all.
maybe in a psychology perspective they are all having some similarities but in general I don't think they are alike. mostly because in other forms of addiction like drug addiction there is always a physical need on top of the mental need that derives the person towards that but this is not true at all about gambling.

But it is the truth all of this addiction is a mental illness that just like you said all have physical needs that they need to keep their urge in it and just like drugs they keep on coming at it and if they don't continue with this kind of urge they will feel something is wrong with them.

The excitement it gives to the gamblers when every time they are winning to their bets is just addictive like I have felt that and it makes me excite when I'm going to gamble.
But I thank God for helping me to remove being an addict to gambling.

agree, this is also another factor why most gamblers are addicted. The urge to win big always exist on every player, especially when the gambler is on the losing side. Greediness is another big factor why they still stick to gambling, some of them want to get their losses and some want to get rich fast.
Well, it's really hard to get out of it but good for you that you managed to do that.

I think you get an adrenaline rush when you put money into gambling and win.  Maybe just betting gives you that rush.  Once you win you want to keep trying to win more.
Exactly! its an Adrenaline that make us can't stop playing,corious and still want to won more and more,its make people addicted on gambling,and maybe people who want stop playing gambling should drink some drugs that can lose their Adrenaline Hormones Grin
Gambling is addicting for the most people and that is because they also can see that there will be more people that is thinking that they can earn some money with it which that is actually bad.
But there are a lot of people that they can control themselves and that is important because they know that you can lose a lot of money with it.

It always goes out like this, if you don't have control in gambling you will be addicted. You might be wondering why many gamblers are addicted to gambling right? because they are greedy, they only want to focus on winning with no exact target while forgetting to consider that losing might also happen.

Winning make you addicted to gambling not the gambling itself when you win and double your money you find it hell of a easy way to earn quick cash and then you try to do it again and again so it become your habit and your habit is your addiction !!
Yes this is 100 percent correct winning makes us to play gambling again and again so automatically we will addict this gambling. But same if we loose our first bet means we automatically stop betting because people will not take much risk in beginning once they lost there bet some people will stop there. so here winning is the main problem.

gambling is not addictive it is the person who gets hooked into gambling that gets addicted to the game.  In gambling you cannot control the game but you can control yourself.  if you gamble in casinos why don't you try betting in sports and feel and see the difference.

I don't agree you at all. Addiction means exactly you can't control yourself. Betting in sports also gambling and highly addictive. If you lose you play to get back your losses. That's how you end up being broke though.
If you have an addiction you must look for professional help.


yes you are right in your opinion.  there are lots of people who go to casino's and play for a couple of minutes but never get hooked to it.  They have this self discipline controlling their emotions in playing.  What you always notice when it comes to gambling is the ones who never stops playing as long as he has the resources to play with.  In the hundred percent of casino guests not even 50% of them are addicted to gambling they are not even regular players.

I agree with that. But it's not only winning that males you addicted to gambling. It's both winning and losing. Losing your money makes you eager to bet more, play more, having the chance that you can survive and get back your losses. It's just like that in my opinion, if you win, you have the eagerness to earn more while if you lose, you have the eagerness to get back your loss.

gamble is the only activity that can double your money in a min and this unique promise lure endless people to come and try it out. they all keep looking for some quick cash and that is why people end up addicted.
this actually the point of why gambling are addictive thing.
a lure to make money very fast that we can never handle.
an addiction always come from something fun , and a casino games provided it plus you have lured by easy doubling money system.

I think gambling is addictive for those people who don't want to make honest efforts to earn money, they want to get rich overnight without doing anything, but it will never work in long  run.
yeah , they are too lazy to make an effort to make money.
but doesn't mean the addicting to gamble come from that reason i guess.
addicted to gamble come from a Getting Over Happiness because they won money they staked and they are lured to make it over and over again that in every case it would not give you benefit against house.
It all start with the excitement you felt when you first gamble. Then next time you still gamble thinking that you can win more and you already discovered the secret on winning, until you knew it your money is gone and now the start of your miserable life.

I think op is talking about why gambling is so addicting..
But any way addiction is one of the sickness that needs to treat because it can brings to you from rich to be poor in the future.. if you are always spending your balance at any gambling site this is addiction.. you are thinking to recover all your coins but honestly you cant recover it fast if you are not lucky you cant recover it all..
