And that is why it is called gambling. How fun it is to be a risk taker? Yes, it gives you a feeling that you cannot get in playing sports or other games. That moment in poker when you have the upper hand and suddenly the player you are against are calling all your bets. The excitement when you know it is all going to be yours. Like missing your baby after not seeing him or her for a year and you are on the plane on the way to him. But there is the bad side. Yes, that losing experience. I hate that but it is like a must if you are a gambler or else no gambling companies will open anymore. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Compulsive gambling activities is not good because we are to gamble for fun. Gamble to the level that it became compulsive or addictive is gambling taking too far. I think we are to pause when it get to the level were we have to gamble with money we cannot afford to lose.
We are to gamble for fun? Do you think all of the people are playing them for fun? If you are I think that is how kids think. Gambling is a way to earn money, and if you say that it is for fun then do you think those people that answered you that they will just gamble for fun, really just want to have fun? No, they want to earn money through gambling and if someone is gambling compulsively? Then that person is already addicted, there is no way that he is just having fun gambling, he can't resist that way to earn money the reason he always come back at casinos.

Many few people take gambling as fun. Also it is not recommended to take gambling easy because your real money is at risk, and you will not want to lose your money. Addiction in gambling only comes in when you are not sure what are your limitations. If you dedicate some money for gambling, then for sure you will not be addicted and you will also not lose more than you can afford.

I agree with all those signs and symptoms, because I've been there and done than. And the only way I was able to really get out of it was to experience rock bottom, it's really a painful and difficult, but I must say that its really a unpleasant discovery on my end. Losing my job and almost losing my family was the last straw for me in 2015.
Right now I do play in land based casino's and even more online. However, I don't have the same purpose as before, right now I just try to play and have some fun. And I spend most of my time with my family now, unlike before, when I have the money, first thing I do is gamble.

So the only one that we can do related with gambling is we know how to control ourselves, we have an effort to stay away from gambling and not use gambling as redemption or searching for satisfying because we have one problem in our real life.
I see a lot of people talking about gambling as a method to relax themselves and have fun but I think that's just an excuse to not quit gambling. I say this from my own experience. A very few times I felt good when gambling and that's because you care about your money and you want to make profit, not lose everything. And since most of the times people are losing money when gambling I don't see how you can call that fun. It is not an excuse to not quit gambling, those who gambling for fun/entertainment purpose are aware that they need to spend some money to get the fun. Just like if you have a hobby, you need to pay something to do your hobby regularly. Those who use gambling as a fun activity wont care about the losing money, they considered as a fee entry. Like if they are watching soccer match every weekend where they need to buy tickets to watch the game although in fact they can watch it through the Television. If you cant call a losing money as a fun thing in gambling, means that you are not a type of gamblers who do it for fun. Simple as that, it is about how we deal with what we are going to do. That's a very good point man and i agree in some areas. The problem is we don't really have the same outlook towards gambling, same as with any other aspects in life. I believe that there are people who succumb to addiction and even if they want to be out of it, they just can't seem to let go. It's a serious problem for a lot of gamblers and it should be taken seriously as well by us who don't suffer from such addiction.

He probably meant that addicts gamble for fun. I guess that is what research says. . so our opinion on it doesn't really matter too much. Greed may really not be a reason why gambling addicts get addicted. Normal gamblers could get greedy, gamble more, lose money, regret later and stop gambling. Addict seems to have little control over this things as op explained

You said you play to have fun... this mean you enjoy gambling, so what happens if you stay away from what makes you happy, in this case gambling? Won't it lead to depression and anxiety? I guess some addicts are heavily dependent on what causes them addiction while other addict(addicts with strong willpower) are not heavily dependent on them,. This probably explains your current situation?

I'm assuming that everyone really knows the bad effects of gambling including me. But I won't categorically say that I'm a pathological gambling. Maybe in the early years of my gambling journey, wherein I don't have responsibilities in life. But it didn't arrived wherein I need to seek medical attention. I simply go and mature and learn to prioritized things in my life that's why I was able to learn how to control my gambling habits up to know, I win some, I lose some, that's just the way it is. I wake up the next morning, not thinking about it and go on life a normal life as if nothing had bad/good happen to me last night in my gambling world.
When anyone has a big loss in gambling and he is not expecting this much loss, that can really cause a shock. I have seen people loss in gambling suffer from depression and headaches. It is a sort of game which can give you tension and even constant blood pressure. When I was a newbie in bitcoin gambling I experienced that big loss. In the first place, I win big amount and I said I want to gamble it again to double my earnings. And then I didn’t expect to lose all of it at single bet so it really hurt my feeling losing that big amount of money so I said to myself that I will get back on my feet to recover that fiats. Then suddenly, I lost again and learned that I need to stopped to gamble my bitcoin. I concluded that being greedy in gambling makes you lose more so it is better to stay away on it when you have no luck at all.

Thank you for sharing your experience and I am happy to know that you have been able to come out if this. Like you mentioned "you no longer have the same purpose that you had then". I think purpose or let me use Motive to entering Gambling in most cases is what lead gamers to become pathological gamblers. I have seen from experience that those who start gambling with the motive of I must make it here end up getting addicted, they hereby do all they can spend all their time and resources because of a mindset but if the purpose is to have fun then gambling becomes easy. Gamblers who gamble for fun do not even see a loss as a big deal.

I am surprised that increasing money to achieve the desired level of excitement while gambling is listed as one of the symptoms of a compulsive gambler. I don’t want to believe everyone who do this is should be tagged a pathological gambler. It all depends on the players worth. If you have so much money to throw around and wish to even increase to achieve your desired fun, then go ahead but not at the detriment of others or as long as it does not jeopardize any important thing, that’s my view but all other point seem meaningful. Kindly seek help if you suffer any of the listed symptoms by the OP.

Indeed, the post you're replying to is really just too ridiculous I've seen more people of below average intelligence here than on other forums. Besides, gambling addictions do not have anything to do with intelligence. People who get addicted are not necessarily dumb and it's just plain idiotic to say something like that. Bruh, you need to do some research before throwing some comments here and there. The relationships between intelligence and gambling addiction already discussed in various academics studies. Have a nice day and keep learning! ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Oh, almost forget.

Getting your is really a sole purpose of entertaining yourself, a gambler who look at this venue to have some fun never ever complained about loses that they've take out from this activity, they are free for being addicted as they can let go whatever amount they lose as long as they being entertained and the lust of gambling has been filled up after the game. There's difference between every intentions that has been made when a person getting involved to this activity.

Addiction is the real reason why people experience this kind of gambling disorder.
It's true that every people who became an addict in gambling have experience mental disorders in gambling. My question is how do gamblers avoid and stop this gambling disorders? Once you started to enjoy playing gambling you will get addicted to it, that is why for you to avoid and stop these gambling disorders, you better first teach yourself to have a self control while playing gambling because you will not experience greediness in terms of gaining a lot of money or profit. People should also not rely on gambling to get easy money because the only purpose of gambling is entertainment and to have fun not to make you rich or be good in gambling.

The only way for them to avoid and stop is by asking someone else to help them to go with him to everywhere he goes and always remains him to stay away from gambling and ask that gambler to do another activity. With the helped from other people especially from his beloved person, I am sure that he will obey and will follow the suggestion. And he needs to have a strong mind to stop gambling forever.

And he needs to have a strong mind to stop gambling forever.
I think he needs more than a suggestion or motivation. He also requires a preoccupation with some positive activity, it was necessary to distract his mind from gambling addictions.
