signs of gambling addiction

[JohnBitCo]

Borrowing either from family or anyone outside to gamble is a no-no once you see that sign, you should know you getting addicted to gambling. Gambling is made for fun in a free time anything outside that is a wrong signal.

If you are thinking about borrowing money for gambling, then it means that you have already lost a lot of your money in gambling and are now empty handed. So by the time you borrow money, you are already addicted to gambling.
The only way to avoid this situation is to allocate certain portion of money for gambling and do not use more money to play gamble, if that money is lost in gambling.

The sign of gambling addiction is you constantly visiting a gambling site, spending most of your time trying to find a key match,

In my opinion, visiting a gambling site constantly isn't a sign of addiction. As long as you can control yourself in gambling, means not spend money excessively and not uncontrolled waste your time, it is no problem to visit a gambling site regularly. I am sure people visit a gambling site constantly doesn't mean they visit it every day. Visit constantly can be accessing the gambling site every weekend. This is certainly not an addiction but a kind of discipline in gambling.  

I have account on almost all of the gambling sites but i deposited money only at the few. This does not mean that i am addicted to gambling.
If you are a gambler you should visit multiple gambling sites often as this gives you an idea to compare the site and also do not miss out on any offer or bonus. But the only thing is not to deposit and play, every time you visit the gambling site.

Basically, in my opinion, gambling is a game that requires a clear distribution of funds, and when we want to bet to get a profit, it would be nice if we use other money that is separate from family money, so that if we experience defeat, it will not affect our family finances later, nowadays the desire to win factor often forces us to continue gambling and gradually gambling seems to have become a routine activity that must be done, and even with this addiction it can trigger us to commit crimes when we run out of money, in my opinion, when our behavior has led on bad things and harming others just because of the desire to gamble is one of the symptoms of severe gambling addiction.

Just because someone has an account on multiple gambling sites doesn't mean that he is addicted (which doesn't mean they aren't). Setting up accounts and testing casinos means being more professional and taking the subject seriously, not just randomly relying on luck.
In my opinion, people like you who do good research are more aware of the dangers and are unlikely to become addicted. This is how everyone should behave and take it seriously, because if we will not be careful, we may find out that we are addicted when will be too late.

For addicted people to gambling, borrowing money will be their only way to have money and continue to gamble, which could be a sign for the addicted person. Maybe they will lie about what they will do with that money. We can admit that playing gambling is just for fun but we do not know that people out there use gambling to make money. They know about that, but they still playing gambling and finally, they become addicted to gambling.

[Woodie]

This is simple, if whatever little money you have can't remain untouched in your pocket or bank account 

and what comes to your mind is gambling then this is an obvious case of gambling addiction which needs agent attention!

When what you are doing is directly or indirectly harming someone or yourself physically and mentally, I think that that's the time that you should confirm or be wary that they might be suffering from gambling addiction.

This is an intelligent reason, you need to put some thought to it to get it, I like it.

So far some players wouldn't really think of borrowing money but they may in need of money actually that is why they gamble. I consider myself in need of money too but the only coins I bet are the ones I got from casinos tokens which I receive as dividends.

I can admit that I'm actually thinking of betting while I'm in bed. Do you guys think it's harder to get out of addiction if you own investments in a casino where you receive tokens?

Gamblers don't realize they are addicted to gambling until it's worse which they've done unthinkable already like breaking the piggybank of his kid just so he could gamble again. But you as a gambler can also notice it to yourself before you get to the worse situation like selling valuables like jewelry so you could play again.
 
Is seeking a new strategy or thinking of betting while you are sleeping signs of addiction? If not, what are little signs that unfold you are becoming a gambling addict?

I think it is rather difficult to single out the special signs of addiction for gambling, since they are true for almost any gambling addiction or even professional activity.
A simple test: name any feature and apply it to a person who is a professional chess player. I am sure he will have this sign.

New Strategy?? It will just make you more addicted to gambling.

Thinking of betting while you're sleeping? Hmm for me its more than that.
See gamblers tend to get addicted because they are spending more time doing it. The more time they spend, the more chance that they will get addicted into it and what's worse here is that they will not realize that they are spending more time in gambling than the usual especially if they are winning consecutive times.

Another one is like you said, thinking of it whenever and whatever you are doing. You're sleeping, you're watching, you are doing nothing. Anything that you are doing, gambling is always in your mind. That is another sign of gambling addiction.

Spending more than what is intended to spend. I've seen many gamblers doing it already and even I experienced this kind of thing. There are times that I tend to spend more money especially when I'm losing too much money. I want to recover it all and the ending? I loss all of my money. This happens to many gamblers too.

The signs of a gambling addiction are when they continue to force themselves to gamble, no matter how they get money to gamble, because when they continue to force themselves to gamble then of course it is an addiction. Because usually, at first players will only continue to gamble without having management but after a long time of betting then slowly they will have their own management to become more disciplined and pay attention to control in gambling. If players don't realize this, then of course they will end up with a mess that makes their lives fall apart because they no longer have control and common sense.

[AicecreaME]

You're addicted to gambling when you always start your day with it, or if you can't call it a day without playing gambling. You're addicted on it when you focus on gambling alone and never do anything, your focus is on it everyday and you spend all of your money on it while ignoring your responsibilities as a person.

Addiction is your habit, it will either do you good or the other way around, it depends on how you manage it and how you do things based on what's happening on you.

The number one step of gambling addiction is having the motive of earning money through gambling because the main concept of gambling is to provide a possible chance for people to win and winning is not always guaranteed.
The habit of thinking or meditating on a new strategy of winning gambling is the number two step to gambling addiction because it will later cause the losing control of gambling urges.

[Fesatmas]

Well, there are many things that a person experiences when his mentality is filled with gambling addiction, and this addiction is usually called compulsive. which experiences a strong and uncontrollable urge.

what we find the most is always trying to add a larger deposit which aims to return the money that has been lost (chasing losses).
As for some alternatives that I have found, namely if someone is addicted to gambling, it is advisable to see a psychologist and try mental therapy so that they can gradually overcome the addiction. Usually they visit a specialist doctor once a week, routinely it is effective to get rid of gambling addiction.

I don't know if you agree with what I said but I don't think that it's an intellectual take on this thread, I think that it's more of a common sense rather than something that looks intelligent. I mean if you are hurting someone, wouldn't that raise some flags that you might be addicted to something?

In my opinion I think that thinking a new strategy for gambling is not sign of addiction but dreaming of betting was a sign of addiction, well in this case I think you should now start reducing your time to play gambling games I can't think of other small signs of gambling addiction. I think it's different to different people we will only realize we are addicted once we've already done something horrible like spending all the money and losing it all.

[Peanutswar]

There are people just trying to make gambling they want to seek some joy or fun but some of them can't handle it anymore because they want to make more play with their gambling it gives different benefits to them like if they play gambling it relieves to their selves some of then just want to watch only.

I think I will consider a gambling addiction to a player if they keep playing every day and it becomes part of their hobbies of daily routine we cannot blame them but still having good risk management and mental stability is the best way

Addiction towards gambling is quite obvious because addiction can happen to gamers as well.
We know many people were addicted PubG. Recently I heard that a teenage boy sold his mothers jewelry to purchase in-game items.
If a teenage boy can get so much addicted to a game a man can obviously get addicted to gambling which involves real money itself.

[Alisha-k]

We tend to deny the fact of been addicted to the game at some point even when there are clear indications like selling off of properties and gambling with funds meant for something more important. Gambling addiction starts with a constant vist to gambling sites or online casinos but if we can always tell ourselves the truth we would notice when gambling is going is becoming an addict

Your reasoning is true but I do not understand why a man is just as susceptible as a teenage boy you would think that a grown human would be a little more mature and be able to moderate their addiction better than a teenager on average. I am not saying that those that have an addiction are weak I am trying to say that on average a adult should be able to resist it more than a teenager.

There has been a lot of stories about kids using their parents money for in game items and I think there was an issue in the last year or two where a kid used his mothers credit card on Twitch to get some cosmetic chat items and ended up donating thousands instead because they input the incorrect amount.
