The madness of gambling addicts.

[Huppercase]

The main issue is that gamblers do not admit that they are addicted to the gambling and this is the main cause or reason that they are unable to quit gambling because they do not consider themselves addicted. When you are not willing to accept that you are unfit, how will you take steps to make you fit?
This is exactly true with gambling addicts. They think they are just gambling normally and hence they will never take steps that will make them gamble less or take a break from gambling. They keep losing money and think it is only because of bad luck and still not willing to accept that they are addicted to gambling.

Another reason why they do not improve is that even if they recognize they are addicted to gambling, they also understand the road to their recovery will be very hard, so when given the choice between keeping their addiction going on or to stop, they prefer to keep it going as it is easier, besides when they think of all the people they have offended or let down they are afraid that when they finally take the decision to stop there will be no one there to help them, a real possibility if they have been addicted for a very long time.

Gambling addiction is a psychological battle where people can become hooked without even realizing it until someone points it out, it's akin to thinking you're doing the right thing when, in fact, you're at fault. So many people fall into this trap, oblivious to their addiction, only a handful of ones recognize their mistake or acknowledge their gambling addiction and when they fail to address it early on and deny its existence, it becomes increasingly challenging to overcome.

I believe that doing too much of anything is bad in life, gambling should be scheduled and rules should be followed so that as a player, temptations do not cause you to play games you are not supposed to play, or wager amounts you are supposed to use for upkeep; there are some players who will use their dinner money to gamble and sleep on an empty stomach; this is the level of addiction that gambling can cause some players, and it is very bad.

We know that people does have different level of self control when it comes to this manner or simply with gambling activity on which they would really be having that kind of treatment whether they would really
be just sticking into that basic behavior that it is really just good for leisure thing or would really be that something that making it as a source of income or making them rich. This is why gambling industry becomes even more bigger as the years passing by on which it would really be just that normal that there are people whom would really be getting addicted on the time that they would really be getting
some involvement. Although not all players or gamblers would really be going into such situation or condition but pretty sure that huge percentage of  them would really fall into that. This is where if addiction hits hard then they would definitely be doing all sorts of things on which they do believe that they could really be able to win up time to time and this what makes them desperate and
this is the primary thing that you should really be avoiding in the first place.

Well, that should always be are own responsibility. Some people may want the casinos to put a limit tracker on every users account to control this kind of madness, but I dont think that will be necessary since casinos are also a business entity and they are also looking for huge profits.
What you have said above is true and it's supposed to be followed by every gamblers responsibly. Unfortunately, there are always these people who overdo gambling not only because he's hooked up with the games, but are also chasing huge jackpot, but we all know that ain't easy to hit. The mindset that these people have is to hit just 1 time jackpot and enjoy early retirement. Well, i think that's almost fantasy lol.

[STT]

Hit the jackpot and stop is more sensible then alot of plans and at least it is a plan.  I think the worst actions would be completely unplanned, unscripted and not remembered even.  At least you can learn from events you remember clearly, its all just reactionary then nothing is learnt just repeated.  The worst mistakes are repeated, always try to gain something even in loss that can be valuable I have found thats small but some consolation.

That is pretty much the only way to win against a casino. Winning big so that you are in the positive, and never ever playing again in your lifetime.

The thing is that most people that receive that large amount of money feel like they can do it again, which is almost impossible, and continue gambling away their earnings.

Casinos now this, so they of course invite you back, treat you with VIP status, etc, because they want their money back

You are right but such a scenario is very uncommon, after all at that point greed takes over those people as they think that if such results can be maintained during the long term then they could make gambling their main occupation, so they gamble again thinking they will get the same results only for things to change and experiment some heavy losses, then instead of simply accepting that their results have gone back to the mean they gamble even more money, and that is how they end up returning all of the money they won to the casinos.

They do that because they have won a big win and think that luck is on their side and thus the greedy thought of winning again appears by itself, but they are not aware that luck only comes once.
This is a big mistake for gamblers who have won bets and this kind of thinking should have been pushed aside.

Casinos now this, so they of course invite you back, treat you with VIP status, etc, because they want their money back 

Actually, I actually assumed that this was a mutualism or mutual benefit even though it was actually the casino that benefited the most.
Impressed to be used, but at least from both sides can get their respective benefits.

This is the most common mistake when, after a long series of failures, the player tries to increase the amount of the bet and thereby hopes to win back the loss. But this only means that the player turns on emotions, and it is clear that in this case the loss is inevitable and it will be a more significant loss. Even if this time the player is lucky and wins, it will be even worse because he will think that he can win back in this way, and as a result, he will return to this method again and again until he loses all the money.

Not only when they lose a lot of funds, but also when they win. They have the mindset of "I won a lot so it would be okay to bet a high amount of money" then after losing that money will lead to that scenario. Hoping that they could win back the money they lose but betting a huge amount of money would just cause them to lose more. Also they have the mindset of "high risk, high reward" but without consistency and limit to themselves cause them to use all of their funds. Always remember that having a winstreak doesn't mean you will not stick to your consistency.

One hidden truth about gambling is that the more you attempted to win the more you're loosing because one cannot approach gambling with being too emotional and desperate for winning alone when it's a likely possibility for either winning or loosing, this is part if the risk involved that you find out some matured gamblers don't go after winning but the fun the derive in gambling is their major priority which that's how it should be.

[Webetcoins]

You are right that not all gambling can result in gambling but if we gamble for fun and without thinking about profit then luck can come by itself and we will have profits.
If you say that a disaster is not a disaster because gambling is an option so any risk must be accepted gracefully even though sometimes this risk can give someone a big loss.

No, they will not stop gambling for profit because they already have more curiosity in gambling making it more difficult to leave gambling.

Now I agree with this, if we start gambling hoping that we just want to get pleasure, sometimes luck often comes, I often feel this way. Gambling is a choice, it is true, if one does not want to lose money then never try it. Sometimes there are also many of them who cannot accept the fact that they have lost at gambling, and that has a very negative impact on their life. On the other hand, it is not uncommon for someone to experience prolonged stress. In my opinion, if someone has an emotional nature it is better to avoid gambling because this can make your life messy from a financial and psychological perspective.

It's true, emotions, whether it's being sad very quickly or getting angry and frustrated in no time, can be a negative point for someone who gambles, and if you have become addicted to gambling, this will make your life worst because you won't be able to control yourself and gamble even if you don't want to, and then your emotions won't let you gamble peacefully since for every loss you will either become sad and stressed and angry.

When you become sad and nervous, you keep feeling inside that you will lose everything you have and that actually happens, and when you get angry after a loss, you will start wagering higher amounts only to recover the losses and that is also a pathway to disaster.

This is like an open secret and indeed it is a fact that cannot be simply dismissed.
The condition when we are too impulsive and ambitious like this is what makes us lose because there really is an urge where we only focus on winning and not focusing on the game which will actually make our condition worse considering that apart from ourselves we don't enjoy gambling what is done, we will actually make this a waste because indeed we will likely lose the gamble.
Things like this must always be minimized because of course this will actually be detrimental to yourself because where emotions affect the game, you must be prepared for defeat.

They should change that mindset and quit right away before they lose control and end up placing another bet. They can expect to win big but also have to admit that it is not easy to get and they might lose all their money, especially if they intend to recover previous losses where it will be even more difficult. The pattern "high risk, high reward, but we need to be wise before deciding" is something that must be owned so that we realize that gambling is just entertainment and nothing more. Don't chase something from gambling but let it come alone while you just want to enjoy gambling.

In order to avoid more severe addiction, you really have to change your mindset in a more positive way, acknowledging that gambling is not a place to gain profit except for luck.
from a positive mindset a gambler will definitely gamble casually without any pressure even though losing never has the intention to chase that loss. so gamblers who already have a mindset like that certainly can't become crazy gambling addicts and are usually calmer and usually always get small luck.

Most of the people quit gambling after facing major setback
not always you are lucky to have been receiving and winning money all the time.  Sometimes you can be looser and you wont belive how the moment has ruined your life all together.

Hopefully, many gamblers can change their mindset by not thinking that gambling is a place to make money but a place to have fun. But if we look at what's happening, it seems that many gamblers still think they can make money from gambling.

That's why we should avoid such thinking and not hope too much to make money from gambling. If we can do it, it will be useful so we won't gamble too often. But indeed, if a gambling addict is asked to think like that, he will find it difficult to do so because he is used to gambling, but it still has to be tried for his good.

because we cannot change the other people around us, we must change ourselves (what I mean is changing our environment by moving or something like that)

whatever happens in your life is something that can still be changed from the start, so improve your environment by seeking a healthy environment from various types of criminals and bad people from an early age

gambling is an addiction and the adrenaline gush is very tempting.  But gambling should not be the life style to person. If they have fear for not being able to manage their finances then they have a wrong approach to the life. Let your dream bigger than your fear and actions louder than words.
Live the life with set goals and achieve them as early as possible in your life.

It was a consequence for sure if you don't gamble responsively I mean this is probably a debt thing and probably the worst thing that you could do in gambling is to loan and gamble it. It might be a good start if you win but your problem will be huge if you lose your money anyway. Surely he has some mental problems kidnapping your granddaughter for gambling is not something that you're going to think of as a normal person, he's eaten by his gambling habits and it's getting out of hand.

I know a lot of gambling addicts that gamble a lot probably every day they don't care if they lose the money but it's a great thing if they win, but this kind of thing doesnt even landed on their minds once. Some just of my friends just want to get entertain and have some fun but they steal to gamble or kill anything that is against the law.
