gambling, alcohol, nartotics and sex... they all can ruin life


and im addicted !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only natural thing on the list is sex - all of the others are only created by men. Even things that are natural when done excessively, is bad - how much more the things that are just created by us in this world.

All things are bad if you do it excessively as you said. Even on the simpliest things  which could a human  do. Some things are good in anyway but when the times  you almost use it everyday or do it without skipping a time  then for sure it would do some bad effects on you and to your life.
Sex could even be bad as too much sex will destroy your life but if I were to choose between gambling addiction and sex addiction I would force myself to choose sex addiction as long as I can have different girls in my bed. LOL..

Anyway, back to the topic, gambling is really something we should be careful as it would ruin our life if not handled correctly.

In general any kind of addiction is not good. If I had to take, I rather have a gambler addiction than sex addiction because you don't really hurt yourself physically just financially.
Yeah all kind of addiction are not good at all. Even sex or gambling, both are not good. You must have to control yourself. And you can also have HIV if you are really addicted in sex. That gambling and sex are not good but if you have a wife or husband just be faithful if you really want to have sex. Go with your partner and not with a different type of person that you didn't actually know where they came from.

The house designs the games, slots so exciting, therefore players can feel thrillment, happiness from gambling. Their targets are offering entertaiment for us, so they win money.
yeah I think any game in gambling has been designed so that the players get a thrill and pleasure outstanding plus if they win at gambling. of course they will more frequently and want to continue to try gambling. because they think that the gains in gambling is not limited and can make them become rich
The more the game is so entertaining the more we have a lesser chances and games which are boring are games we have good chances of winning. Like in roulette, that game is very entertaining but our chances is very low to win so I would also say that it is for entertainment purposes only.

Gambling is so addicting because of the excitement you feel when you are betting , The feeling of the mix emotion when you are winning and when you are losing. As long as you have the money to bet you cannot control yourself to bet.

And that excitement grow higher when you win some bets while you are gambling and addiction begins from there, no one gets addicted if they lose at first because after that their interest will die but someone would get addicted if he see some potential of earning and that comes by winning at first.

The thing is most of the gamblers win at first try, and that would be the basis of our interest in gambling. I believe when a person will only know how to control himself in gambling there will no problem for him and addiction is only the outcome of lack of self control and discipline in gambling.

Yeah, people who have a self-control has always fine to play gambling, as long as they cannot affect their family and their financial need in daily lives I think they are fine to gamble at all. Because some people having fun in gambling even lose or win. We don't really know exactly why but there are really people loves gambling.

That is right. Knowing these is an advantage for us not to be swayed by these baits by casinos. Some gamblers even play with high bets to impress the dealer and that dealer is effective and is doing good in that scenario. Thus, always bear in mind to not play with emotions when in terms to gambling instead, play according to your pre-planned bets - without emotions.

There's this feeling of "I'm a hustler." whenever you win a round that seemed so impossible. Some people are looking for that feeling. Others that are on negative profit are looking for the feeling of becoming on positive profit. These feelings can only be obtained by winning so the gamblers that are looking for these feelings are going to bet and bet until they get that feeling. In most cases, even if they have reached the feeling that they initially wanted, they will still continue betting for a more thrilling feeling.

That's the key to be successful in gambling as you will be able to execute the plan when you are using solely your brain, once your emotion will take over that would be the start of your bad luck in gambling so stick to the plan always and learn to control your emotions in gambling.

Money is sometimes called a drug takes you to the sky. Money is addictive. No one in the world don't stay without money of any form. If you can loot money, do you stay inactive, so gambling is addictive.

Most of the time that's the reason why gambling is addictive, sometimes we tend to think that there is an easy money there without tiring ourselves on work...  Who would not want money or easy way of getting it... It's just that gambling looks like that in the outside, but not on the inside, when you are just starting you only see the outside part of gambling and not the real "intention" of the site or its purpose, which is for the owner to earn...  Smiley

Well, if only we are good in gambling then it would be easy for us to make money even spending a little time of the day in gambling. I always try to find a good method that I can use to win consistently in gambling but every time I try my method if does not have a good outcome.

Simply ask your self, why am i really addicted to it? I think most of the gamblers can answer that it may be i the way of the hype it can gives to them or for some this is a good way to earn.

I believe the potencial earning from gambling is the main reason to anybody get addicted to it, in fact i see a thread where the person is gambling at sports bets and till the moment he made more with some bets then i earn all year working, soo this is a big reason to give a try.
try is the initial damage input gambling. to try then we will get into the gambling world as a whole. because winning or losing can not guarantee that we can stop from gambling addiction.

I stopped gambling when i took a big loss, once you experience a huge loss you are too depressed to ever gamble again, so maybe that is what you need, to experience a big loss and spend an entire month feeling like shit.
Yeah i've been through it, it was the most horrifying thing happened to me. i couldn't eat/sleep, i kept thinking about my losses for many days. although i still gamble like once in months.(with extremely small amount)
This is important if you consider gambling as entertainment, you will not be too concerned about the defeat. I myself play gambling to have fun, loss go away, without being distracting thoughts.

That is the right thing to do, play it for fun with a small amount that you can afford to loose, so even if you loose it should not affect your financial status.

Yeah it might be able to minimize your chances of getting an addiction. Gambling is indeed very dangerous for those who use gambling for want of profit, because the mind will bring up greed and finally they get addicted
It is not always obvious when someone is addicted to gambling. When people are in financial ruin and can only solve their problems by gambling what little they have in an attempt to get a large sum of money.
Some of the addicted person are obvious of their addiction, especially if you always seen that person in gambling places, well that was too obvious that you can’t find out that he is already addicted, I think even you will notice that he is already addicted. Well, maybe it is also depend of a person. But some people that are don't have financially problem I think playing gambling is fine for them.

It is sure easy to understand, and if we are a gambler we will know that base on experience, my experience as I was once addicted with gambling and even now I still have that slight addiction as not all the time I can control myself in gambling. When you are addicted, you have more time in gambling than any other things in your life.

I dont understand that and dont agree with you.Money is invloved in many other things in a business there is alot of money,In any job you gonna get your salary in money but you never gonna get addicted to a job or a business.
The thing is whenever we win in gamblings it is very easy money that is earned by a lot of work.so people think its a pretty easy way of earning the money without doing much hard work.

It is not actually the money whose the main reason why we are addicted in gambling, it is the entertainment we get and thrill in game of gambling, rich  people does not aim for money anymore but they gamble because they love to challenge themselves and to enjoy the game.

But still if you keep on losing there, no matter how beauty the dealer you will still get angry with everything. And i dont think that it will become addiction to you because what really affect the addiction is only the feeling want to recover everything, meanwhile beauty is just some extra addition for gambler for having fun

That is true to some but not to all. There are really people that plays gambling for fun and that is what we are supposed to do. However, professional gamblers are not playing it for fun though, there are playing it for money - for profit.
