Can change of environment have an effect on gambling addiction.

[Silberman]

This is the truth, without a doubt professional help is needed when the addiction is completely out of control, but the desire to get better can only come within the person and if they do not have it then regardless of what you do to try to help them then that person is never going to improve, which is why there are people which recover completely, those which will always struggle against their addiction, and those that never recover despite the best efforts of their loved ones.

Yes, even more so when they have responsibilities that must be fulfilled in their family life, at least they should be able to save the money from their salary for a healthier life to support their family from day to day. But if they are still single and also they can still make money with their work, it will be very difficult to stop the habit of gambling, because the awareness to stop gambling will exist when they get into trouble from gambling itself to make them think for something healthier.

Many gamblers which are addicted to gambling do not care about their own families they need to support, the addiction they are going through consumes them completely to the point they do not care about anything else, which is why eventually their loved ones leave them behind and that is when they finally realize they have reached rock bottom and this is the wake up call they needed to eventually try to look for help and try to resolve their addiction, however even if they do so the damage they could have inflicted on their families will never disappear, and even if they get better they may fail to recover the family they have lost.

Yes I agree, without the force within that person he will not change his bad habits

It is not always that the decision of a person that will change him. Although it goes along way like many people believe but at the same time there are other external forces that can force someone to change from one particular habit to the other one. For instance sickness and a particular type of it can control the way we act. If a gambler is on sick bed and not able to move around definitely his gambling activities will automatically reduce.

The only thing that will make someone to change from it's decision. it's because of  lacks of funds but when someone is rich very well which nobody can bend it decision unless it undergoes numbers of advices from prominent people. Because a situation that changes the decisions of someone emotions and conditions is very difficult and especially for those people who have what it takes to control and stamped for their words. But from this your analysis, i have not see were it relate or collabrate with gambling issues.

In our religion people migrate too - if they are finding the place not treating them well. So migration in our culture is very important if you need to have a better future. Change is constant.

It's true the only thing that makes a person want to change is his decision and it requires strong determination. I do not agree that lack of funds can eliminate his bad habit of gambling. I think lack of funds is one of cause and effect, it is not impossible that he will do his gambling again another day when he has money. and this is not at the core of the topic of this thread. Likewise, advice from prominent people or clergy does not fully help people who are addicted to gambling.

It's 2022 already, you can almost access anything through internet. So, moving in environment without gamblers won't change you that much. Unless you completely stop yourself from using internet (which is nearly impossible to do) and focus on something profitable. Of course, the amount should be decent or near what you are aiming in gambling so it can satisfy your craving in profit.

so far the gambling place as a user is a place of entertainment and with gambling you can get a lot of money when you receive luck, some people who are technology savvy and often surf the internet, they must have tasted the world of gambling with various models, and it is proven from year to year Gambling sites on the internet have a high demand.

What do you think if in this day and age there is no internet and we are still in the current pandemic, do you think it will be okay with gamblers all over the world? although the person who can gamble in a land based casinos is limited.

The change of a person from a gambling addiction always depends on the person who is addicted to gambling, and I agree with you on that point. The real change really comes from oneself first, second only to what they say family or close friend.

[Reatim]

it is effective in some part but this will still depend on our wanting , because even how changing  locations we do but if we will keep seeking for gambling places then ? what is the sense actually?
I'm afraid that all we wanted is different  from what we are doing if that happens.

change place if you are ready to leave addiction  , of course with your family that supporting you.

And also the cause of the unlawful act when an addicted gambler gets run out of money. He can think of something

unexpected, to the point that he might steal or anything that can bring him money to gamble back, it's not really relevant with lacking
of funds, but more on changing the directions of the person to avoid or completely move away from gambling, changing the environments
and keep the person busy with other things can straighten the problem with gambling addictions.

You will agree with me that society and the environment can have a great influence on the lifestyle of every individual, you often can find yourself doing, or being involved in that activity that almost everyone is involved with in that your locale as a result of influence. Now considering someone who is a gambling addict, is there any possibility of him/her becoming better if they are relocated to another environment or society where people around are not involved in gambling?

Can someone still develop the habit of gambling and become an addict even though no one around gambles?

In my opinion, the place of residence of the player does not affect his addiction to gambling in any way. 

The social circle is also not a factor influencing the time spent by the player for gambling.  This is due to the fact that online gambling is currently the most common.

 At the same time, most people in the world are introverts.  Most people are completely immersed in the virtual world (and this is not only gambling, but also other virtual entertainment available on the Internet). 

Therefore, a change in geographical location and social circle of communication is not able to cure a person from gambling addiction.

spending time in the amazonian jungle can definitely help gambling addicts, no possibility of using internet, too busy enjoying the new environment, the tribes can also give you medicine and organize ceremonies to help you deal with your habit. same goes also for some tribes in africa.
op, change of environment and society can definitely help.

[Gianluca95]

Yes sure, there are many habits that incentivize gambling game. If you live in Las Vegas maybe you'll be a gambler  . Apart from that, I think that society where you are, city where you live ecc. will influetiate you in

everyone of your hobby, not only gambling one. As the user above said, if you live in the amazonian jungle I don't think that you'd be a gambler.

More of that, also society and your family give to you some influence about.

The fact remains that this can be fetched onna two background basis, the first is that if the gambling addiction has turn a negative effext onbthe gambker and people have been seriously complaining about that, then a change in environment could make some difference as it is believed that what we often see frequently we get used to, the other situation is if one get addicted to gambling but the environment one lives is not contributing to his good performance in gambling, then one may try to have a look into another location with better offer and opportunities in gambling, here there's no complaints or negative influence the gamblers generate that may warrant a change in environment but he Willingly seek after that as a better offer.

There will still be a possibility that we will return to looking for a gambling place around our new residence and we may ask people in our neighborhood. We hope to find a casino there, which can happen if we don't have a busy day.

But if we can immediately mingle with the people around us and join in many activities, it will prevent us from thinking about gambling so we won't have time to find where the casinos are around us. This is why we need our families' support to help us change the situation that has happened to us so that we can cure that gambling addiction.

[karabiber]

Of course this is possible. Human is a social entity. Person can imitate or inspire the actions of those around him. If a person is addicted to gambling or has a different addiction, the addiction will continue even if person is alone. But if person is in an environment where people who are not addicted to gambling, person will gradually get rid of the addiction. Because people who are not addicted will advise him. Person will want to end its addiction so that person does not feel alone. However, this is not possible if the person is an antisocial gambler. May need treatment.

[Sirait]

Why do we always see in movies that when someone is hurt in love and in professional life they change their location.
In our religion, people migrate too - if they are finding the place not treating them well. So migration in our culture is very important if you need to have a better future. Change is constant.

because nowadays human life can no longer be far from a smartphone or laptop/PC device (used for online gambling) so if a gambling addict wants to be completely cured of his addiction, that person must not only change his environment but also try to stop using his smartphone. or laptop/PC for a while. believe.. that the desire to stop gambling (by gambling addicts) is very big, so it needs support from within yourself to be able to stop gambling.

[minime0105]

Yes. The influence of environment is the primary character human, you can be gambling free for the environment you stays before and when you leave the environment and entered to the environment that is full of gambling corruption. From what i understand, environment has it own power of influence which it's few people that will escape from environmental influence. You can be a day gambler but due to environment you will become a subsequent gambler

[famososMuertos]

An alcoholic cannot see an alcoholic drink because it cannot be controlled, the additions in its symptoms are influenced by the environment, which by the way is the main agent that causes recurrence or those so-called cases of weakness. So Yes! the environment influences the addict, but the person who is healthy does not.

We live in 2 kind of world now, first is real world and second one is online world.
Means that even if you live in an environment where there is no one gambles, you may still find it in online world and it may affect you.
Your environment may affect your lifestyle but in the end you are the one who decide whether you want to be affected or not.
Talking about the chance of addiction, it has nothing to do with your environment but it is more about your mindset.

I our culture - migration is a very important thing.
PEople do migrate when things are not in their favour from city or from a country. This brings in change of environment and attitude.

If we live in times when the internet isn't available then it is impossible to develop a gambling disorder because there is no factor to affect that since you nullified the possibility of outside factors affecting the subject.  But we are in a world where everything is almost done online, this bridges the gap between an individual and the gambling casinos.  If the subject has access to gambling casinos online and plays then there is a chance that the subject will develop gambling problems because he is now actively involving himself in gambling activities online.
