Gambling is everything especially for those what we called compulsive gamblers or those addict on gambling, but it made me realize, why they get so addicted in gambling? if gambling can be the reason for them to lost their money, properties, relationship to family and friends, mental health and physical health. I know that there are gamblers who play because of fun and entertainment, but actually there are so many ways for us to make ourselves entertained without even losing our money.

But anyway, I can not judge and blame all those people because we are all different, we have different story in life.

No gamblers wants to lose everything in gambling it just happens they got addicted to gambling they win some and thought he can beat the house or the casino, gambling plays our emotion, it targets our needs to satisfy our curiosity that we can get easy money from something, which is just a fallacy.

This question does have different answers. We can't generalized it as people have different reasons, which also you mentioned.

We aren't in the position to say, "Hey you, there are another way to entertain yourself without losing money! Stop doing gambling!" as we don't know the story behind their gambling activity including.

But one thing is for sure, winnings are one of the reason, as always, why they become addicted. Nothing beat that experienced as we gamble. We always want to achieved it as much as possible so we keep coming back gambling our money.

I think the question that preceds this one is "Have you been gambling?" If the answer is yes, you will certainly know and are familiar why gambling is addictive. The experience and feeling of gambling is really nice. The thrill of looking forward to the outcome or the result of the game, the possibility of winning, the ecstasy of winning itself, the adrenaline to get back whenever lost, and so on are just some of the things I can mention why gamblers are really hooked on it. Even a moderate gambler like me knows how it feels to get lost in the gambling world.

Yes, that's true. If you experienced gambling at one point in your life, you will know the reason why it is so addictive. Even if I am not a gambling addict, and just a small time player, I know the feeling of adrenaline rush or excitement when you are into the game. So if you can't control yourself in gambling, you will really get addictive to it. You should know your limits and the reasons why you are playing, to avoid being a gambling addict.

You can answer all of this once you become a regular gambler. It's difficult to explain or able to understand for a casual gambler or those people who just gambled a few times a month why other people become a gambling addict.

You need to experience what they experience for you to understand why they become addicted. It's not just about entertainment but winning big will leave a good mark on a gambler's mind that will haunt them for the rest of their gambling life.

And aside from that, you are correct at your last statement, they have different stories and backgrounds why they became like that and that varies per person.

Addiction would vary on what a gambler do hopes for. If entertainment then gambling can give that, on making money then gambling can also give such thing.
So high chances that people that do involve with gambling will really get addicted if he cant able to control himself towards it like spending money just like no tomorrow
or doesnt save up for his needs and compromise life savings.This is why gambling industry is so big due to this behavior.Once addiction hooked you up then it wont
be an easy thing for you to get out, so be wary on your gambling endeavours.

Isn't it obvious op? Its sort of like an high which you could get from drugs etc and makes you feel awesome regardless of how shitty your life is which is why many gamblers are addicted to gambling.

In that moment, they lose focus and only think about becoming rich very quickly without concentrating on the consequences.

If you are not reasonable and if you don't play smart gambling can easily influence your mental health in.bad way.
Gambling gives you thrill and excitement and if you also win money it's hard to fight that feeling. If you don't have enough selfcontrol, if you are not strong person that often leads to addiction. Just listen to.the story of some gambler who fughts with addiction.and everything will be clear to you.

There are so many reason why a person would get addicted to gambling.
We have those who gets thrilled and those who sees it as an easy way to get a big amount of money,
We also have those who gamble to escape some problems.

One major factor that causes the addition to people is beacuse of the greedy behaviour as everyone wants more and easy money . Gambling is such thing which they think can help in achieving the quick money but chances of making such money is not that easy and in order to make such money they keep playing under assumption that sometime they will make big money and in process they get addicted to it and cannot leave it when they wish too .

Gambling is fun. Sometimes when you're lucky, it is an easy money for you that's why you will urge to gamble more and more. As you try hard to gamble, when you lose, you really want to bring back all the money you've wasted that can also result to another loss. The cycle continues until you have nothing to feed for your family or for yourself. Addiction is very common not only gambling, it is applicable to anything that we are enjoying or interested in. But in reality, gambling is never a source of money but a source of happiness and a stress-reliever. Still prioritize yourself, work and family so that you will not become addicted to gambling.

Omicron is another FUD
snip..
a gambler will not get to the level of addiction if the person has never won big.. average gambling addicts are people who have won big when they win big automatically their minds program that they will easily win.  even though they lose a lot, their minds say that don't stop, you will definitely win..

 I personally see this more like a fun thing that people do for entertainment and not an addiction until they lose too much. Normally many things are like that, even just watching TV is an addiction if you do it 20 hours a day, there were people who got addicted to world of warcraft so much that they played 16 hours a day and it affected their lives. So gambling is basically like that, if you do too much of it that will lead to ruining your life, if you do it just enough its entertainment. Using drugs, or smoking, or drinking will lead to health stuff, you can smoke just a little, or drink a little but it still hurts you, gambling is not like that, if you gamble just little it won't do anything to you, that is why I still think it is not a severe addiction thing unless it ruins your whole life.

To fill a void in their life and having some sort of fun doing it. Not every person becomes a gambling addict, there are around 8 billion people on earth so I doubt we can say there are too many addicts, even the number of drug addicts is higher than gambling addicts (mainly due to gambling not considered an addiction until too late) so I assume it is really that big of a trouble compare to other addictions and seen less problematic by many people.

When a person has absolutely nothing to do, goes to work, comes home and there is nothing on TV or no hobbies or basically nothing they like as much as gambling, they open up a website and starts playing, that is one of the biggest causes. In every addiction one step is fighting an addiction with keeping busy, give people something to do and they will have bigger chance to fight addiction.

We all have different tastes when it comes to what we find entertaining. For some, they don't find it entertaining but we do. We are aware that when we are gambling, we are putting our money on the risk. We are gambling because we are ready to take the risk and we know there's something we can earn in exchange for that risk.

All gambling addicts started with just a small interest in earning money but because of greed, their interest grows that they cannot control it anymore. That's why I keep on saying that before we gamble, we should learn to control ourselves and emotion because, without it, it will lead us to addiction. I must say I know how to limit myself that's why even though I gambling, I can still control myself and I am not addicted to it.

and why not ? its because gambling is like eveything else that makes us also addictive  .

 it gives you fun  , different kind of  and also profit or money which makes people come back especially if they won and get lucky alot of times but once two of these factors didnt met succesfully by gamblers  , that is the time they comeback in the hopes of fulfilling it  . this is the time they dont know that they are now already addicted too it and whats worst is that they continue even if they also know that what they do is not good anymore

Well said mate, actually I am not really used in gambling, so I do not understand what they feel when winning or playing gamble, Winning in gambling is the most and the primary reason of the gamblers why he or she became addicted on it because money is everything, money is power, secondly is the fun and the entertainment that gambling can give to us, based on some threads that I have read one of there main reason why they are gambling is because of the enjoyment that they find while gambling but actually for me they wouldn't be happy if they are losing the game, so I decided or I conclude that the main reason why people are being addict on gambling is because of winning the game and earn so much money.

I think we can be addicted not just to gambling but also in other things, but we don't realize that. We only say that people addicted to gambling because we see that person is playing gambling too much than the other people. They can be addicted to one thing if they like it, and they do it almost every day so they will feel something has lost if they don't play it in one day.

If you don't want to become addicted, you should have power for yourself to prevent the passion that will come to you to continue playing more rounds. Besides that, you should have a limit on the money itself because if you don't, you will not realize that you lose too much money.
