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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Well I think focusing only on gambling will only put you in a lot of trouble, and I think not only trouble but a lot of pain and hardship what if you ending up addicted to it? what would you gonna do to? how does your family support you with you every needs in overcoming this mental illness called addiction?

Gambling is just so addicting for the fact that you can make a lot of money if you have luck, people want to try it again and again and that is also with if they are winning they want to do it over and over again.

Gambling is not so addictive as everybody is thinking it is. Because you lose money in a casino doesn´t mean you
are already addicted. it will become addicting if you go to many times to a casino and lose every time you just come
back to earn your money back it isn´t addicting directly.

That isn't really the point here, you can really never know when a person will get addicted or a person really is addicted to gambling because there are others that can control themselves towards addiction.

i know why gambling is so addicting and thats not becasuse of the game. Ok some games are cool but not that cool to put hundreds of dollars into it. If you lose money you want it back dont you. That is the point your getting addicted to the game on that moment you know that you have to take a step behind and leave the shit behind.

This is also a sick behavior seen in investments too. You invest in some stock, or in this case in some altcoin, then you lose money with it, you get mad and you try to fight the market, so you invest more, and you enter in a spiral of losing money instead of recouping loses or at least holding and seeing what happens. This people never learn it seems.

gambling and addictive.  it could be the URGE OF WINNING,  because addicting definitely is to keep on going no matter what the cost may be.  So why does a person is addictive to gambling is because that person wants to win.

Gambling is addicting because of all kind of factors, I think gambling can really make you addicted for sure without any doubts.
Its the point that you can really enjoy it for a long time plus it can be very profitable if you have luck.

we always think of the downside of addictive gambling, what would it be if an addictive gambler always win?  in some cases it happens.  we cannot say it is good, right?  but rather "that's not bad at all"

Yeah your right but if you are playing for luck its cant still profitable.
Sample you are lucky today you play and gamble to dice you win and you want still to increase your win amount and then you bet again to win you win again.. and you bet all in and then lose.. os you cant still not profitable if you are not satisfied what you had and you are not greedy you will still make a profit when you are gamble.. thats why some people are addicted because they want to recover their loses but they are not satisfied what they had because he didnt recover all their loses.. so it will turn to lose again.. and it will repeat if he or she didnt change his goal satisfactory and dont be greedy..

If you know when to stop, you can make profits, but in the long term, you always lose if you keep playing. Actually, the only way to make positive profits is to stop as soon as you have profit, if you keep playing, you risk losing it. I think betting is a more reasonable way to gamble, than raw luck. For example, I can be on Jon Jones winning the UFC200, that is reasonable, but with gambling, there is no reason, only luck.

I guess gambling makes some beginners or people addicted as it is very interesting, for some people it can stimulate adrenaline, and for some people it is a very interesting game and cool. we always see in the movies
