The gambling addiction can sometimes be cure with a shock therapy. Sometimes a good loss is the best lesson than a human can learn. Lose big and you will understand the risk, the n you will think twice again before putting your money in big gambles.
Lol I do not think it was a good lesson. because you have to be bankrupt to be learned? because usually addicts will stop gambling after they spent all their money on gambling? yeah even though it will stop them gamble. but I think they were too late to be aware

Why do you gamble ? To Increase the capital you currently have !! Correct ?
That's the point when Ball is in the court of website where you gamble , When you loose you will increase the Bet sooner or later for sure to recover the loss.

Many gambling website say that they earn money from the house , Actually not ! They know the human nature to avoid loss and are using it for their advantage.

That's the reason their Gambling business is running.

I think even if the gambling websites change their house edge to 0% of their program then also they will earn the profit like they are earning now.

Gambling is already dependent, and therefore such a passion for their people. If possible, you need to distract the people from such a relationship.

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.
You're not really a gambler if you are addicted and can't control yourself from gambling. Well, atleast you won't be a gambler for long since you're going to be sacrificing literally your everything to hit and "win big" or so they say.

I think if you are addicted we can say that its a gambler because they are staying in that hobby and he live in gambling..
But the problem if you are always losing there and never make any profit yeah i think they are not a gambler.. because they are lossing for nothing .a true gambler they know about the game if they will lose or not..

Not if they control themselves! I try my best to do it, and it seems I am having success in the latest weeks. Try to somehow force yourself not to be in control of your money anymore (hand it to your girlfriend or family) and you will stop.

And for the family.

People usually forget how much the family suffers in these situations. They should also take the help of support groups so they can get support from other families in the same situation, as well as professionals.

I had reached some problem and my family helped me to get out from gambling, it were a hard thing to do as i believed i could stay at home and earning well with forex, and recently with trading of altcoins. The prizes, the pots value makes anyone believe they will be able to get it spending less.

That is where the difference between a hobby and a problem are.  If the hobby is ruining the mans life as he/she knows it, then it is an addiction and should not be touched.  You can no call an addiction a hobby and you need to know the difference between the two!  For some people it is hard to tell the difference.

Gambling could be a hobby but it is an expensive hobby as most of the time we loses. But if you can manage your loses you will gain more happiness compared to the amount you spend.

Actually, usually you win 95-99% of the times. But when you're winning you have to be clever and stop. Smiley

However you can also have bad luck and be part of the 1-5% losing bets.

Whatever you called it but the two are a very serious disease, when you are addicted in gambling you also act so dumb that you can gamble any amount even if you cannot afford to lose that money anymore, the worst thing is it will not just destroy your life but also the life of your love ones.

You could still recover from those down moments as your brain is not damaged by gambling, but with drugs, for sure there is... When you were overdosed with prohibited drugs it is possible that you will be more like with ALS and that means drugs physically it could damage you...  Smiley

addiction on drugs and addiction on gambling is a different story  they may the same on the result  on lossing money in the end  and would  wreck your life but the effect  on  drugs would be  more severe  compared to gambling because same as others said it would destroy also your health which is  very important to us. You would be a useless person if you are completely disabled.

Expensive hobby or addictive hobby? Because to have that hobby is kind of risky thing. And how to manage your loss by gambling? There is no solid strategy that will keep you on getting profit all the time though, although huge amount will have chance to lose too

Well it is better if you are going to be addicted with gambling rather than you are going to get addicted with drugs. But I think that is going to be associated if you are not going to be a responsible gambler then you are going to become an addicted drug user too. As I have watched in a movie, those addicted gamblers are also using illegal drugs.
