Yesterday I watched a video about addiction on youtube: https://youtu.be/ao8L-0nSYzg. It was a real surprise to me that according to recent research people are addicted to drugs mainly because they can't bond well with people and are not able to live a satisfying life. The research shows that when an addicted person appears in a loving and caring environment, the addiction kind of disappears (even heroin addiction). I wonder what are your thoughts on this matter and whether you think you could say the same about gambling addiction.

I think what you said about the video is alright and people that has definitely experienced a lot of stress and can’t seem to have the right rhythm in life are the ones that get addicted. It’s not easy to stop the addiction but it can be. I just hope that people who are addicted that have gone the straight path wouldn’t get astray again just because of negativity in life.

Gambling addiction is different from drug addiction in terms of reasoning from someone who is into it. Addiction in gambling is because people are dissatisfied with what they already won in a gambling, and tend to lose it all even if they know they are not winning the game.
There are a lot of reasons why people are getting addicted and they usually end up taking drugs, gambling and usually being a shut in in their houses playing games and being an addict to social media or the internet. Depression, family and financial problem are some of the most problems they usually face and they are finding a way to forget any of them by being addicted to something, and yes, every addiction has the same solutions. Their addiction varies in their environment.

I wonder what are your thoughts on this matter and whether you think you could say the same about gambling addiction. Very nice video! I've enjoyed watching it. "Human rat park". )))) I think they are right mostly because indeed no one would become a drug addict or a gambling addict if he/she was living a satisfying life. Oh, and I forgot about video game addiction and food addiction which are very serious problems too. In fact, any addiction is bad, and if happy relationships can really save you from it, that's great. But as far as I know, in today's world, people become more and more lonely. That's the problem. So, if you have a good partner you should value that, because it's really rare nowadays. I for one, enjoy gambling together with my wife from time to time, but I will hardly become an addict because I'm more addicted to the life I live.

It is quiet true that this may be actually be happening, gambling has often been known to give people an ardeline rush that sometimes they haven't felt it in a while somewhere else, it kind of sparks them and they find a reason to live again, even when I had a worst breakup I was able to survive it thanks to gambling so I find it accurate.

Well, I believe in different kinds of reasons since we all people has different kind of problems and different kinds of situations. Some people gamble because they take it as their way on how to earn money everyday, some people take it as entertainment since they are bored in their life and some people take it since they love it.

I think loneliness could play a big part in that, because, why would you spend much time on gambling in the first place if you have good social relationships in your life? Now, I also think that in most of the cases, problem gamblers end up choosing for gambling rather than their partner/friends, but that might be because those relationships weren't good or stable to begin with. Just speculating here, might want to read some actual research about this.

This is not much different from other addictions, that it is true that everyone who feels himself is nobody cares so he does not care about his own life, bad socialization is the cause where he is not getting attention and automatically out of control like himself without taking care of others, by gambling to please themselves or wanting to look cool from most people, as do other addictions to satisfy their desires for themselves, since most gambling and drug scopes desperately need them to survive, regardless of the fate of the future they.

There are lots of gamblers who have a healthy social life but still addicted to gambling. I don't see that as a reason why should a person will refrain from doing gambling. Again take note that we are talking in general here so reasons are vary per person. The feeling of winning big amount is one of the reason why people loves to do gambling. Since winning in gambling is not the usual case and scenario, there will be lots of attempts that will be made just to get that purpose. And the result? Gambling addiction.

In the first place if you have an loving and caring environment as you said you will not be involved in such as drug addiction because good environment wont encourage you to use drugs. But still its on the person who handles the situation if they will still use or not. Gambling addiction can also be occur in the environment since or maybe the friends, family or neighbors encourage you or teach you to gamble.

I don't believe that love can cure addiction, though it helps to have good social bonds in your life if you're an addict. That's why the anonymous programs work (AA, NA, etc.), because it's definitely true that when you hit your addiction bottom, you're usually very isolated from society. That's true for substances as well as gambling. Addicts invariably strain relationships because of their addiction. That's one thing I've learned over the years.
As far as being the cause of addiction? Not so sure about that. You can get a lab rat addicted to substances without all of the abuse and social isolation. Once you have a problem with addiction, you have it. I think there are a lot of reasons why people get addicted to things, and poor socialization is just one of them--I don't deny that that's a cause, because I do think it is. But I've met addicts from relatively loving families and who are otherwise social butterflies....and they still get addicted.
People start gambling for fun, usually, just like they start drinking for fun. Only some people get addicted to either, and I don't think it's well-known why not everyone does. Genetics plays a part, as does the environment. Loneliness and dissatisfaction are only two factors in a very complicated mechanism.

Very accurate. I also have read some studies related to the gambling addiction in which the chemistry in our brains changes. For instance, one can get addicted to the feeling of "satisfaction" due to a winning, and our brain is secreting oxytocin, endorphins, et al. Also, adrenaline can be really addictive. The adrenaline of a big bet and the time seeing what`s happening can be addictive to a person that doesn`t feel the life fulfilled. Other people choose extreme sports, parachuting, but this is a kind of "drug addiction" since you get addicted to the "feelings" you have while doing something. Those feelings are produced by the brain, this is just a bunch of chemical substances, hormones and so, making you feel like nothing else`s can.

I think, when you are alone, you can be a bit more reckless with your money. If you do not have kids and the responsibility to pay for their education and for their food and a roof over their heads, then it is easier to spend more money on entertainment, like gambling. A lot of people are not addicted and just need something to spend their time on and when they gamble, they socialize with other people. {Brick n Mortar casinos & live streaming sites} ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

So you claim that people who aren't loved are starting to gamble? This doesn't make sense. I know a number of people who have normal families and are gambling as a hobby. They may be addicted, but they're gambling with their hard earned money, not stealing from others or taking loans. What would you change in the life of a gambler? Care for him? Make sure he's feeling loved? It's not a junkie that can't face the society, it's a guy that goes to work, spends time with family and in the evening goes for a round of poker.
