I don't know why but I always get a feeling to gamble, after then losing my money, I quit for some time and then continue, but I know I will lose my btc Sad

Why is it so addictive?

I got same issue like you. I know at the end (with my methods) i will lose my money in gambling.
But after i postponning to not make bet or play. I just keep make bet until today.  Undecided

Self controlling and understanding is the best way to not got addicted in gambling.

You must know how to control yourself. If you don't want to become one of the addicted gamblers our there. Stop betting or playing. Because once started, it is hard for you to stop. You must know how to stop as early as you can. Just a bit of advice. hehe

It's so hard to control myself when on gambling. Especially when you win some but you want more and keep gambling and you become addictive. It's become a problem and makes you lose in the end.
I think that this is the problem of every one. every one is in struggle to make more and more money in a very very short time. but I make him addicted and if he won a lot of money still he will be willing to increase it.

Yep. But another thing to note is gambling gives you a certain excitement. Same concept you get when you are drug high. And i guess that is what making it addictive.
Drug high is less risk than gambling because when you are high with drugs you will not lose money unless you also gamble but most like trips are going out on a bar with friends. On the other hand, gambling addiction is very dangerous as you might be bankrupt within a day if you make a bad decision with your money.
Non sense. When does drugs become a better thing. It is even worse because when you are in drugs you do not have control of your self. Drugs will take over your mind and body. And there is also the risk of getting over dosed. A lot of people died because of drug overdose. No addiction is good, whether drugs or gambling.

Yeah totally non-sense.

Drugs do take over the control of our mind, including our emotions.

Thus making drugs the most addicting thing in the world with a lot of bad effects to your self to your mind and to society,

Try to think, does gambling cause psychosis? No, right.
But drugs do cause a psychosis to the addicted persons to it, not just temporarily but permanently.

So by the next time you said that gambling is so bad than drugs, then try to look for the effects of drugs first.

I didn't include there that drug is the main reason why some people kill, some people suicide, some rob just to buy for more drugs, without getting any good benefits at all.

LOL, that was for the typical gamblers. We gamble as if there was no tomorrow and we want to go all in or go home. Mostly with that kind of attitude, people will face big problem in the future in he continues to do it regularly. Easy to win and lose in gambling so we need to be careful if we are in the losing side.

There are only two reason why we are addicted to gambling is because we only see that we are winning . not knowing that we are loosing more than winning that is why. also because we want to take back the money we lost.

Thats a common result when gamblers are playing simply because you cant win in the long run. Thats why some are betting like theres no tommorow because you only win few times most of your gambling carreer. They like to recover all their losses and win big in one time.

True, But usually those who have thought and desire is the person who from the beginning know gambling using greed and want to earn big profits in gambling. Please be aware that gambling can indeed provide advantages and disadvantages, the system (gains and losses) depending on how you play

not really depends on how we play, but it all depends on luck.
yeah supposed to be winning and losing are common, and people do not always complain about this.
and an addiction or not, as long as we are addicted within reasonable limits I think it is not a problem.

Yes, this false hope for winning the more money is one of the main reason for addiction towards the gambling. People wants to win more and more, they wants to get rich within short time with no hard work, some people are playing to recover the losses occurred from gambling only. These are some main reason for the gambling addiction.

Gambling is addicting because there are still a lot of people thinks that they can earn a lot of money with Bitcoin but that is actually not true.
Because you have to be really lucky to earn some money and that is not happening in the most cases.

dude are you high? drugs doesnt just affect your money,family,social life etc.. it also affects your health.
id rather be addicted to gambling than drugs. yes gambling is dangerous but drugs is lethal you cant compare
something that can kill be better that something cant.

If you have gambled before and won some money with it then I am sure that you want to relive that moment again and want to win more money.
These people are not qoing to quit because they think that they have won before and that they can do it again.

There is chance to win a lot money so players get started to have fun there but big winning change their way to gamble, no doubt any unexpected win can make them addicted even most of people lost very quickly right after the winning and than they keep trying to chase their loses and this thing make them get addictive.
Yes and once they win big amount, they later loose too much but still think that they will have a win like earlier. I think if a gamblers only looses he will be much less addicted than when he wins 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.
apart from that, the ugliness did not come at that time only but the misery continues for our future if we are addicted to gambling.

If you win one time in gambling than you will always think that there will be a chance that you can win more but that is actually really bad because it is really hard to win some profit in gambling and you think that you can earn a lot of money with it but that is quite hard.
But of course it should be nice if there will be more people that is getting lucky in gambling but we cant control it and that is bad.

I dont really agree with you. A lot of activities can be played and why is it not addicting to people. And a lot of gamblers know that they most likely to lose and yet they still end up gambling. It is not just about gaining btc but it is about how much entertainment and fun that the activity can give you. Gamble can give you adrenaline rush and let you be excited when you are gambling.

Some players really think that way, if there are some people winning in gambling how would they not win a gambling bet too, but their assumption in gambling is very bad because they are only thinking about the money they can get from it and not the fun itself is important.

not all gamblers can experience addiction in gambling, because some are trying to ignore it and some control their betting and others were simply taking a look and then realizing how risky it is so they stop playing gambling to try other not risky stuffs.

And at the same time while enjoying, they have chance of getting some money but also higher risk of losing their money.

not all gamblers can experience addiction in gambling, because some are trying to ignore it and some control their betting and others were simply taking a look and then realizing how risky it is so they stop playing gambling to try other not risky stuffs.

Well I don't think when you are in the place of getting emotional for your loses and you are really mad at getting back it.
Then your temper and control for yourself cannot be controllable. That's why gambling is very risky and addicting.
