Gambling Addiction Stories and Possible Solutions

[crwth]

I recently heard a story about Gambling addicts from a worker who works as a manager on the floor. They are the ones who check and manages tables, and they are the one to approve different kinds of transactions there.

Anyways, it's about a person who is an addict who isn't going anywhere. He said that in his shift, let's say it's the morning shift, he saw the person there, playing. Nothing out of the ordinary, but when my friend says he is going out of his shift, he is still there, the player, so, at that time, it's quite okay because it's just almost 8 hours. When he came back the next day, that same guy with the same clothes is still there.

Just a reminder that there are people who really need help, but not interested in helping themselves.

That is true. Gambling addiction cannot be fought alone. The only true way is to talk about it to friends and family and ask professional help. The casino will not care, it just wants your money. The addicted person also should be aware that he is addicted and should also desire and want to get helped from professionals.

Even in real life, I have witnessed how gambling addicts treat themselves. To just change clothes, bathe, work and even to eat, they can ignore it. For them, it seems, they whole life is only dedicated to gambling and don't care about other things. Yes, these people need help, especially from close relatives by limiting the addict's movement. Every act of the addicts must always be monitored and if they are going to touch again with gambling, then their relative must immediately forbid it. It may need time, but it may work eventually.

Due to some addiction, they sometimes commit any illegal activities in order to have money and that's really happen.
Nobody can cure his addiction but only himself. Rehabilitation is a way to separate them from being duly indulge into gambling but totally is for them to move on and accept into new life away from gambling. Addiction won't be a problem if you know how to control your self and even commiting illegal actions towards others.

I mean it's almost the same as drugs, its all about your health but when it comes to gambling, not only your health is in grave but also your money and social life, being addicted can lead you to being alone, and if you are lucky enough you'll find yourself some friends who are addicted to gambling as well which is wrong, And it can't be resisted and stopped all by yourself, you'll really need some company in overcoming that addiction, it's hard but you can get through it, it's hard but it's worth.

[semobo]

Maybe two reason for this to be happening,one is that the person may lost huge amount of money in gambling now trying to recover the losses by playing more bets the other reason is that user won huge money still trying to more money because of greed.

Once you got into that shit you will definitely be going to lose a lot of people that cared you the most. You can always ask some help to someone but you should be willing to accept to change because after all, you're still the one who can decide what you will be going to do with your life. People are just there just to guide you of which path you should choose, either way, it's just a test for you to learn.

I know a lot of people have tried using their problems as an excuse to gamble. It’s just like any other addiction that you encounter. Finding different solutions to gamble. And the reasons for it not so good. They are just making it worse.

That is true. Gambling addiction cannot be fought alone. The only true way is to talk about it to friends and family and ask professional help. The casino will not care, it just wants your money. The addicted person also should be aware that he is addicted and should also desire and want to get helped from professionals.

It is definitely not going to work if you, yourself doesn’t want to. I think everyone can agree on this. I think it’s too much if you seek directly with professional help. I think friends and family would be enough except if the person is really in too deep.

Maybe two reason for this to be happening,one is that the person may lost huge amount of money in gambling now trying to recover the losses by playing more bets the other reason is that user won huge money still trying to more money because of greed.

Definitely the first reason that you have. No one should be too greedy or they’ll end up regretting what they have done.

Only them can help themselves. People that surrounds them are willing to help but if they don't give space for these advices to go through they'll suffer. Cheering them up will help but it's best for them to go seek a specialist.

I feel sorry for the people/family who are depending to that guy. They may not know what he's been doing and what he's going through. For every problem there's a solution and it may not be instant but at least there is.

I’ve heard many stories like this who keeps on gambling until one day they realized that their are already broke. Its hard to help those people who gave up already and those who still want to play despite of being broke. We should control ourself if we don’t want to be broke, know that gambling is too good on making you addict, keep everything in your control and not the casinos who controls you.

[goaldigger]

Your story is a little confusing but as per my understanding, the guy gamble for almost 24hrs non stop. Almost all of addict does this kind of behavior and is almost impossible to stop.

If you really want to quit, help yourself and do the following steps. Read my topic if you have time. Here's the link.

Fact! These are common behaviors of gambling addicts which they dont really care at all on how many hours they are already on their place.As long he do have the money to play on then
it doesnt matter.If you are a worker then you cant do anything but you can eventually observed but since its his money then you dont have the right.If you approach him to give him an advise
then you might either being scolded inspite on being complimented.

Probably, even me wouldn't be hooked in a game up to extent that I already forgot to take a bath knowing the fact that I'm winning. Hmm I just wonder how much money he already lost and how much money he still had, I have a gut feel that he already spent millions of pesos all night. I feel sad for him because it seems that he's now hopeless.

It’s going to be hard for the family especially if he is only the one providing for them, but we will never know that unless you know him. I do feel sory about what he is encountering.

I’ve heard many stories like this who keeps on gambling until one day they realized that their are already broke. Its hard to help those people who gave up already and those who still want to play despite of being broke. We should control ourself if we don’t want to be broke, know that gambling is too good on making you addict, keep everything in your control and not the casinos who controls you.

Having those mindset could definitely destroy you and eventually kill you (if you really didn’t learn your lesson about this things) you’ll have no money to provide for the person needs.

It depends on the person on how they will react and what their interests are, it’s just that they would put gambling over anything else. Don’t think anyone is hopeless, they just need to realize that they need help and start doing it for themselves.

Yes, stories on gambling addiction and gambling problems are keep on repeating here but we are not finding any improvement among gambler's behaviors on avoiding gambling addictions. People are discussing the dangers of gambling addiction seriously but it seems they are not following them in their real gambling life. It may be due to the reason of they are taking these discussions lightly and having more confident on themselves from not getting addicted but they are experiencing complete different things.

We should control ourself if we don’t want to be broke, know that gambling is too good on making you addict, keep everything in your control and not the casinos who controls you.

Due to the excitement that we are experiencing from gambling, we are unconsciously switching over the control into gambling houses and then easily getting addicted. Emotion failures are another big reason why gamblers are getting addicted. We should be within our control all the time so that we can avoid these problems.

I also here lots of people get addicted to gambling but what is my talk about this topic was don't get addicted to anything while it was money or gold or anything that you have wanted much more in your life if you wish more than you made then it will be get addicted to you that's why I am saying this.
