The consequences of gambling

[Janation]

All these are true. Good job for classifying those. If you doesnt have any self control, you will end up experiencing this all. Dont get too attached on quick cash and never get addicted to it. Remember that there are always a family waiting for you to go home. Fix yourself and enjoy life. You can sure gamble but not to be addict on it.

If people do have a good self control they wil be better off inspite of gambling at times because they would be in their limits. But things turn away from them the moment they start to  gamble just for money or want more and more money and this greed cannot be controlled by them generally end up losing huge looses.

In the real world, they can, it's just that sometimes there are desperate times.

Gamblers don't always gamble and gamble and just spend their money away without thinking. They are also thinking but most of the time they are thinking that they can win, and they don't. Most of the gamblers that I know is so selfish, they are just thinking of themselves only. They are addicted to gambling and they are really obsessed with gambling.

To start becoming a gambler, we must have consequences from the start, remembering that emotional control is a matter that must be considered. For anyone who cannot control themselves they are not fit to play gambling. Playing gambling is fun and everyone should have a limit on what they do.

Every person who starts to gamble will recognize the consequences afterwards when he really becomes an addict. Even though you live in a country where gambling is a common thing to do, but i'm sure you will have some people who will make yourself to stave off from gambling. Gambling is something that he must cover, because gambling is a disgrace. Moreover, when you already have a family (child and wife) there are many possibilities that they will try hard so as you must stave off being addicted to gambling. It should be used as a motivation so that someone does not have an addiction to gamble, try to be just for fun and never get used to gambling in a full day.

You don't get to be specifics here dude. All gamblers really know the consequences of being addicted to gambling. But why they are still getting into it despite the negative effects of it? Simply because they want to enjoy and earn lots of money in the quickest time possible. And no amount of explanation will swayed their mentality.

This is the problem with those who got addicted into gambling. They must know at first the consequences they can get if they gamble their money. I agree with what you said with why they are going despite the negative effects that they can face. They think that gambling is the way for them to get money as quick as possible but they can lost all of their money in a snap. It will be hard for those who got addicted into gambling to stop themselves in gambling.

If only people didn't get greedy on the past, maybe we don't have any gambling games right noe, if only people from he past don't think of having an easy life, I think there would be no more individuals will rely on such foolish things like gambling.

All of these consequences are made by the people from the past, who established such business and whom who gets greed about having it all. Either of these two are wrong, and now people nowadays are having a pain in the ass on how can they play another round for they have lost already.

I might leave this to all of the addicted persons here:

yes, the gambling addiction and very bad personally i think i still keep it under control at least in terms of money, as a negative effect i would say that i think continually to the odds

[michellee]

We know that the consequences of gambling are we can lose the money, and that is the biggest things we should care about. When we were playing gambling, we need to know the limit of the money we want to use as the bets so we can stop when the money is almost gone. We need to quit gambling as soon as possible to save the last money that we have so we can learn from the gambling games that we cannot depends on gambling to make money. It is dangerous if we risk all of the money to chase the big jackpot in the gambling games.

[swogerino]

It depends mostly on the individual but the consequences of gambling can be from sadness to total addiction.

Sadness is Ok in most of the cases as it makes the individual think more deeply and thoroughly and it results in a lot of times quitting gambling. The problem is when sadness does not happen and the individual goes beyond it and get addicted, this is the worse consequence of gambling as it makes your brain to think only about gambling.

Instead of enjoying they choose this venue for gaining quick money, sadly, it turned to the other way around, it's also a quick way to lose all of your money, turning the activity into a bad habits, keep pursuing and get addicted, losing all of your investment and turned your life into miserable one,
consequence hurts the reality.

Pathological gambling can leave extremely difficult and long-lasting consequences per person!

They can be classified into several groups:

Physical consequences are happening due to frequent, stressful situations. A person which is gambling survives stress when finding gambling assets during gambling, in situations when he loses and wins, and finally, when he/she feels guilty because he/she gambled again. As a consequence of this condition, health problems are starting to appear.

Some examples are:
digestion disorder, headaches, insomnia, mumps, loss of appetite or increased appetite, increased consumption of alcohol and cigarettes or psychoactive substances, migraine, rapid heart rate, cardiovascular disease, skin diseases, dandruff, tics, trembling, increased sweating, and other stress-related illnesses.


Psychic Consequences from the gambling addiction can cause mental disorders, which are manifested by:
weaker concentration, poor memory, difficulty in thinking, frequent and inadequate mood swings, slowness, depression, impulsiveness, reduced motivation and narrowing of interest.

Also, there are also characteristic changes and the establishment of an addictive behavioral pattern characterized by behavior based on the "principle of affection," which is inherent in children, not the "principle of reality" that is inherent to adults.
Characteristics are:
lying, manipulation, selfishness, egocentricity, immaturity, insensibility, irresponsibility, negative attitude towards authorities.
 

In addition to these, other specific personality traits that are specifically connected with of gamblers are appearing:
parasitism, laziness, inability to deal with productive work, grandiosity, and omnipotence develop.

In the group of psychological consequences, the so-called comorbidity is also a rule, and not as an exception. With gambling, other psychological disorders are appearing such as:
nicotinism, alcoholism, drug addiction, anxiety disorders, depression, hyperactive pores, eye and attention deficit.



The social consequences relate to the problems that gambling causes in the social environment of addicts, in several areas of social life:

Professional consequences are first expressed in:
absentia from work, illness, poor quality of work, poor communication with colleagues and intolerance towards superiors if the addict is employed.
If a person is in the process of education, there are:
[color=greenabsences from classes or lectures, pauses in education or his break, worse results and grades, problems with colleagues and professors.
[/color]
Consequences in interpersonal communication - This group includes problems in communicating with people who are reflected in:
increasingly frequent conflict situations, fights, quarrels, criticism of others, glorification of one's own and degrading other people's work.
Communication problems arise: in relation to partners, friends, family members, colleagues, neighbors ... Relations with them become weak and superficial, and communication termination often comes to an end.

The economic consequences are often and most pronounced. Due to frequent losses of large amounts of money, constant loans from family, friends and at the end of taking money from the loaner, the gambler, and his family are beginning to suffer on the financial plan as well. It takes several years for the gambler and his family to recover from these consequences (provided that the person no longer gambles). Unfortunately, there is not a small number of those who never recover from these consequences.

Criminal-legal consequences arise mainly after all sources of money "dry up" from the family to those "from whom they could almost borrow". In order to get money, addicts resort to the commission of crimes and most often robbery -  stealing and robbery.

Family consequences are also included in a group of social consequences, but are, for the sake of importance, separated into a personal group. The problem of gambling is also the problem of the entire family system. Relations within family become worse, more conflicting. Communication among members becomes superficial and insincere and family roles are disturbed. The family begins to isolate itself from the social environment, contacts with friends and relatives are reduced. It will take a long time from the moment when it is learned that one member is an addicted gambler until the moment of this same gambler going to the treatment. During this time, the family is going through a paradoxical process, in which (despite the best intentions for the addicted member), it will contribute to various ways of further developing and pushing the gambler to stay in the addiction phase. All of this is a result of defense mechanisms by family members.

Thus, for example, following mechanisms of defense that are appearing in the wife and mother are:
negation-type - they are convinced that the gambling habits are only temporary - that's the current thinking, according to the principle "it will not happen to me".

minimizing - he/she is not a gambler he is just betting

projection -  society is guilty for everything, they have brought him in this phase

There are also other defense mechanisms but the list is too long to write them all in a single post!

However, by the time the family begins to face this difficult problem which brings consequences which are becoming increasingly apparent and they are trying to help the gambler. There is a range of measures; so-called solution such as:
prayer, conviction, quarreling, threats of divorce and abandonment, tracking and also the movement to another city.

All of these attempts are only temporary solutions, but they also create new problems, which are exacerbating an already unsettling situation. Only at this stage family members are deciding to seek the professional help!

My question is -

Has gambling left a trace on you; if it has which consequences are you experiencing right now?

Psychic Consequences from the gambling addiction can cause mental disorders, which are manifested by:
weaker concentration, poor memory, difficulty in thinking, frequent and inadequate mood swings, slowness, depression, impulsiveness, reduced motivation and narrowing of interest.

It is possible that these are the consequences of addicts trying to suddenly stop gambling.

I am not sure if this is correct but gambling addicts need to stop gambling gradually to enable the body adjust properly.
It is also possible to gradually replace the gambling with other fun stuff

Chronic gambler definitely are going to experience all that you have mentioned, but in my case, I don't  have any of such symptoms or  thing because I am in full control of my gambling habit, I only gamble what can I afford to lose, and I'm ok every time I left the gambling place or sites.

[Rufsilf]

Even if you give so big details,the gambler will always play gambling until he is not finish his bankroll. So in simple words everyone know about it even then they gamble

Exactly, I think the gambler will just scan this and don’t really mind at all, because they are only thinking about gambling and gambling and gambling. Well, it good that this has been provided, it could be an eye opener to some, not all because most of the time addicts don’t care and don't listen at all, its like they are already close minded to everything good you say. Besides, once they hit the ground from losing they’ll realize all of this, and not only that, it’ll be too late for them to realize they lost everything like literally everything, could be money, house, family and etc.

Thats nice because you dont chase your losses once you loss all your bank roll while to some they do get mad if they loose their capital and that will result for them to deposit more because they do want to revenge for their loss but what happens next is more worst because they still loose again  . the cycle will continue and it could lead to a more serious problem such as s gambler can do unwanted criminal acts  . i think these were the consequences of gambling  .

So far I'm not experiencing all of these symptoms, I started as an investors, I know the huge risk of investing in Cryptocurrency so I do my research and only invest what I can afford to lose and I also applied this principle in gambling, so I'm not gambling to make money at all, money will come if you are lucky, I treat it as an entertainment.

  I also found gamble as an entertainment field that could relese stress and can enjoy to our individual life. Consequently, we are aware about the consequences on gamble and we have to take the risk on order to make it work and succeed, because gamble must have sensible strategy and luck to overcome thrive.

We have the same perspective with regards to gambling.

The problem is most gamblers see gambling as their way to make money in a quick way and that is wrong. Lets see gambling as a way of getting entertainment only and lets just gamble the money that we can afford to lose so that we don't feel any regret and disappointment if we lose all of it.

Just play small amount, yeah, but how many times you're gonna play with small amount. If you add it all, it's total won't be small. We can't stop them on how others think of gambling just like others on how they view gambling as a bad thing. Gambling was meant for entertainment, but for owner and most of players, it's not, it's business.

Other then the most obvious of losing your money, you can lose your family, wife and kids and your close friends.
High blood pressure and constant anxiety and lack of motivation when you should be out doing other things.

[MFahad]

This post deserved merit, actually he posted in deep detail and spend time to write it, and behalf of this detail everyone should know in which category he is gambler. Most of the people who play betting, I hear from them they always said that they are not gambler, because they are not playing gambling, they just do betting. So in my eyes, sporting betting is also include in gambling.

[omonuyak]

Some people have appreciated what he post and by opening this thread and explain this to us and merited him and that means what he posted has great impact on gamblers. You can lose and you can make profits and the reality is that you are doing the right thing and you accept reality for what you have done.
