Gambling is not addictive for everyone. While some people can drop $20 into a slot machine and then walk away whether they win or lose, others have a hard time doing so. For those with gambling addiction, I think that it's mostly about the adrenaline rush that they feel when they play.

Because when you gamble you have a pleasure that can't explain especially when you win the game, and relaxing when you are playing and eliminate a lot of stress, and the others are really fortunate in gambling. Someone else is really lucky to gamble and they always win so many are addicted to gamble.

Gambling is addicitive because it is one of the easiest activity to pick up. It is suitable for all ages so even elderly can also play. You dont even need to understand how it works and you can even profit while being entertained.

True aside from that the lure of winning a huge sum adds to the attraction.  Entertainment that triggers brain hormone to long for it is one of the reason why.  People love entertainment, the sector that gambling fulfilled so if ever a gambler loses its control, he will be drown on the longing to play again and again thus getting addicted to the gambling game.

cause everyone is greedy, they wanna make easy money with fun, so people prefer making money in this way, but most people failed because casinos have house edges, we lose in the long run, so we should stop when we earn, although it is difficult for us
It is so addictive because we can easily earned money here if we are lucky in gambling but not all the time we are winning in this game.Many people are so greedy to earned big money so thats why they are so addictive in gambling.And if we are playing sometimes its less stress because you have fun while earning money easily.

Someone else is really lucky to gamble and they always win so many are addicted to gamble.
I am looking for the entertainment every time I gamble, but even if I did not win all the time I still enjoy it because I already know how to manage my self in gambling. What makes me matured is I learn from my experience, it's hard to win when you do not have the skills but to have fun is easy when you can easily accept your chances of losing.

Yes, if we limit ourselves, we can be happy even if we are losing. But for some people, they want to make profit and do not want to lose their money. Even if they know that gambling is depend on luck if you do not know the strategy. I think all gamble game are depend on luck even it is just only a little. Strategy may needed, but luck is factor number one.

Gambling can make you rich in just one night. You do not know how much money you can earn in one night. That is why, people are so enthusiast and become an addict.

You did it in your family? There is a chance to escape this addiction and you just need to remember that gambling is not forever. If you want to have a decent life and not in gambling, think on how many times you fall in gambling addiction and think if you want to stay living in that miserable life of failure, only if you are keep on failing in gambling because some addicted gamblers are having good fortune.
I think he has found a good way even though there is no guarantee of it but close to the family can make us have other activities and friends to talk for forget us from something, you must have heard that to get rid of old habits then we must find new habits . Well, maybe this way can be used to eliminate the addiction to gambling.

Being close to your relatives or family and friends is a very important thing if you want to stop gambling. As gambling is naturally addicting, we as humans doesn't have human defense mechanism against it. Once our minds started to tell us that we should gamble then we will gamble, this is why many of us aren't comfortable and contented when we gamble because it's really something that's normal and natural.

Family is really important and should be treasured above anything else in this world. When you have good family relations, you just can't afford to risk your lifetime family savings just to gamble because you will surely be thinking that you will go to use that money for the future of your family and loved ones.

In case that you feel you are getting or started to be addicted to gambling, take a deep breath and watch your loved-ones when they are asleep and you will feel that conscience if you bet further because you know that you next bet may lose again.

What's the connect of that? I don't think you'll feel guilty by just doing that. You can't feel that guilt in the first place by just looking at your love ones sleeping. And as I said that gambling is natural, it's normal to see that one of your relative is in gambling as it's naturally making people addicted. If you are born to be a gambler chances of becoming addicted is there and you have to accept that.

I really don't know why some people tend to think that winning money from gambling is really easy, From all my time from gambling, i have noticed that making money from gambling is like pushing a boulder up a boulder up a rock, it's never easy at all and sometimes fruitless.

Because our brains are already overshadowed by big dreams that gambling present us so we go back to gamble. Lose or win just the same, we will keep coming back and back, until finally we realize that much has been lost yawning because of gambling.

We are brainwashed, is this what are you trying to say? Probably yes, because we keep on thinking that the big wins from other gamblers can possible happen to us. And that's why everyone of us are keep on gambling and it is making us an addicted gambler. This is not new, gambling is very addicting just like the usual type of addiction from other things and I don't want to mention any of them, you all know it.

It is the temptation of the money gambling offers. A study about addiction have concluded that gambling addiction is far worse than being a druggy

The temptation of money isn't with gambling only but I didn't knew it that gambling offers far worse addiction the drugs. Thanks for this information as I thought that addiction in drugs is more severe and worse, do you have any link on that study? Gambling is just really addicting the way it is and it's naturally making each and everyone of us addicted and wants us to gamble most of the time.

That's correct, the temptation of trying to make more money and especially trying to recover what has been lost gets people nose deep into gambling and they become addicted.
I'm totally agree with you. I have such example in my family and that's just terrible how far people may go with the wish to return everything that has been lost already.
The most sad think that there is not a chance to escape this and hard forms of gambling addiction, unfortunately, uncover itself when it's too late.

You did it in your family? There is a chance to escape this addiction and you just need to remember that gambling is not forever. If you want to have a decent life and not in gambling, think on how many times you fall in gambling addiction and think if you want to stay living in that miserable life of failure, only if you are keep on failing in gambling because some addicted gamblers are having good fortune.
I think he has found a good way even though there is no guarantee of it but close to the family can make us have other activities and friends to talk for forget us from something, you must have heard that to get rid of old habits then we must find new habits . Well, maybe this way can be used to eliminate the addiction to gambling.
Also, in order to live we need to do something and if our actions are harming us, we are supposed to change the course. It is very difficult to recover from any sort of addiction or injury and doing it all by your own makes it nearly impossible. Therefore, it is good to have some support and a person who keeps on tapping your shoulder and brings you back to real life.

Alot of people think like that because they havent come to their sense yet. I have come to my sense and I realized this after I lose alot of money from gambling. If people has already lose alot of money then they will forced to make a decision that they will not like, that is to stop gambling otherwise they will lose alot more then what they supposed to lose

Because gambling for some people is the easiest way to make money grow quickly. And they believe in lucky day. So when they gambling, they expect to get jackpot. and that's what makes gambling an addiction (mentally).

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?
Being addicted to compulsive gambling will take over your life . It will destroy you and your family/social life . When gambling a lot of thoughts will rush through your mind listing all the possibilities that can happen and all the numbers or games you can bet on . Those images that you visualize of you being super rich without even spending any effort or any drop of sweat . Whenever you win that hope of becoming rich instantly will seduce you again if if you faced a loosing streak and you'll go back to your habit . Please wake up before finding yourself bankrupt and making your family facing the bad consequences of your addiction.

It does not offer any chance at all because we know that we cant win. If we already know that we cant win and still gamble then it is madness right. I have thought that I could win alot of money as well in the past but everything is just so wrong. In the end I lose alot of money and realized that I have made mistake, it is a mistake that give lesson to my life

Because of the pleasure you feel when you are winning and the greed when you are loosing. People think two ways it’s either to play more to earn more money, or to play harder to gives back the money you loose. It’s really addicting specially when you are loosing money, the greed will drive you to go on casinos.

There is not a very big difference between sickness and addiction, actually they both are the same. Gambling addiction is a sickness. Thinking of earning from a game that can make us sick is foolish. It is not an income source and can never be one. As far as the weaknesses are concerned, then slots, dice and roulette cannot have any weakness. We cannot do anything about the randomness these games offer.
