The madness of gambling addicts.

[tusandii]

Don't ever spend too much time gambling trying to chase any direction is the fastest way to keep losing.

But for a gambling addict it is very difficult to be able to limit the time of a game session because they already have a definite goal, which is to win, so how long and how much to lose is no longer of interest because they only focus on one will to be able to win big.
Giving enlightenment and advice to gambling addicts is more difficult so there is no point in saying things like that anymore.

Those of us who are not really addicted to gambling must immediately do everything possible so that we are not controlled by the desire to gamble and also avoid gambling addiction in the future.

the thing is that most gamblers always thought that they could possibly outsmart the casino by going on in with high risk and in the end their end up being caught up in the web, self-control is very important but most important also is to set aside an exact amount you want to gamble with and anything above that should be avoided in all totality.

Don't ever spend too much time gambling trying to chase any direction is the fastest way to keep losing.

People on average overestimate their abilities and underestimate their flaws, so when faced with the challenge of outsmarting the casinos and beat them at their own game they naively think they can do it, then once they begin to notice this is not the case their ego takes over and they want to fulfill this goal, then once they realize this is not possible they want to at least recover the money they have lost, and each one of these steps leads them towards a path which is very difficult to escape as at that point many would have developed an addiction already.

If people cannot self-reflect, they will face difficulties they may not have imagined. And when they follow their ego too much instead of seeing that gambling will cost a lot of money, they will be disappointed and even frustrated to see the continuous losses. They will be trapped in their own ego and eventually unable to recover from their defeat. And the deeper they try, the harder it is to get out of gambling so it will only provide endless anger for them. Realizing that they have made a mistake and want to get out of gambling can save them from ruin and even bankruptcy.

But not many gamblers have that and often they lose control of what they have been doing. Self-control is the most important thing when gambling, it functions like we use a helmet to ride a motorbike and if an accident occurs, we will still be safe because of this safety. I am very concerned when there is such an incident and it is very unfortunate what his son has done, maybe from this story we should be more aware of how dangerous gambling addiction is and it comes back to each individual how they overcome existing addictions.

Gambling addiction has caused people to do many harmful things without realizing what they're doing to be bad. Addiction makes you only think about satisfying it first before any other thing that matters so you'll go the extra miles just to get that money you need to gamble.

Self control can't be forgotten when you get addicted to gambling, when you weren't addicted you can easily control your self to prevent you from spending too much to gamble or doing unreasonable things but when you get addicted, you forget all about self control.

As for the boy that used the money meant for the medicine of his parents to gamble, that's one thing addiction can do to you. As of when he had the thought he would be very certain that he can double the money and still have money left to use in buying the medicine.

Alright, alright, alright! This, my friend, is a thought-provoker. I'm rolling up my playful-politically-critical sleeves and putting on my over-the-moon-excited hat."Addiction makes you only think about satisfying it first before any other thing that matters" Yet, isn't this a bit like tunnel vision? We get so focused on the prize that we forget to look around. Then comes the punchline about self-control. Fascinating! I'd venture to say that it isn't "forgotten" but rather, overrun. Much like an enthusiastic dog pulling its owner along, wouldn't you agree? Lastly, the boy and his parents' medicine money... a tragic example of the sway of addiction. To him, it probably felt like an investment rather than a gamble. But as the old saying goes, "the house always wins". A painful reminder of what the clutches of addiction can lead to, isn't it?

And again, I already said this numerous times, it is really important to know our boundaries and limits because without any of this, we will not stop in chasing the money even if the chances are much too slim and that will just lead us to a road that doesn't allow you to turn your back as in the first place, you yourself brought it to yourself. I agree on the importance of self reflect because we are just humans, we know that we are bound to make some mistakes along the way and hence why we need to some time to reflect.

This only suggests that we should have a plan when we decide to gamble and without any plan there are high chances that we will only face losses in gambling. Even if one gets wins in gambling, those wins will be unsustainable as we would have no plan of quitting on a certain profit margin, and keeping on playing will only lead to a loss in the long run.

If every gambler do some homework before actually gambling, he would save himself from losing big money but at the same time, there are high chances that he or she will never become addicted to gambling.

The most important thing to set out with before we start gambling is to make a laydown plans that will serve as a guide to our gambling activities as as setting a game time and also balancing spending limits,  this level of preparation will help a lot to settle any potential temptation to spend excessively along the way.

And also it will eradicate the tendency of sliding into addictions unknown.

A Shanghai man was sentenced to prison for kidnapping his own granddaughter so he could maintain his gambling addiction with the ransom money...........................

OMG... I never thought there would be news like that, a grandfather kidnaps his grandson to ransom money to play gambling. This is crazy, I didn't expect anyone to have such thoughts.

It turns out that gambling can not only waste money, but can also destroy families. Even this incident was carried out by a grandfather with the age of 65 years?

What was the grandpa's motive, I thought he could ask his son for money, or maybe his family didn't care about that grandpa anymore because he wasted his money playing gambling. He had lost his mind. He should be enjoying old age and playing with his grandchildren, now he has to feel the cold of prison. I think this is a lesson, so that no one loses their minds when gambling. Gambling is a game of stakes, but never put everything on the line for gambling. Don't risk family relationships for the sake of gambling

This is already something that is getting out of hand , it is losing responsibility, and losing all normal point of view, family, friends, anything that has to do with hurting will never be Supported by anyone, obviously his addiction problem I lead him to commit this type of crime that at the end of the day nothing good is achieved , it is very bad for a person to lose control , that is why when a person has symptoms of addiction it is better to attack him quickly to avoid this type of act , Always It's better that way and that it doesn't come to things like this , or that they come to tempt against your life or something Similar.

that we should have a plan when we decide to gamble and without any plan there are high chances that we will only face losses in gambling. Even if one gets wins in gambling, those wins will be unsustainable as we would have no plan of quitting on a certain profit margin, and keeping on playing will only lead to a loss in the long run.

And also it will eradicate the tendency of sliding into addictions unknown.

First of all, I believe that a person has to know something, from the moment they have responsibility and what happens is the player's fault, we are clear about something, the casino does not force us to bet or play, nor does it require us that the bet that is made has to be superior to the previous one, they do not force us to play with a martingale strategy that is obviously very reckless and that can make us lose our money, under these circumstances we do not play, we decide at the moment we play with what amount to play , what strategy are we going to play and how are we going to play, so a person who says that it is not their fault being addicted is the worst and vulgar lie that can be given, yes, it can be given that they do not control themselves and lose, but fall in addiction it is primarily the person's fault.

When we play we have many things at stake, money, time and above all emotions, if we cannot control our emotions nor can we control our pockets, we must bear in mind that we should not play in a casino, we cannot, because we will fall into an imminent tragedy, and not only for ourselves, for our families, friends and all of us who are in it, if it is crazy, addiction will always be like a difficult world to get out of, but let us forget, the person who falls in addiction it's because it was always your fault, because it was always your decision to go further, of course that's what I think.

[Wiwo]

Snip~

The truth is that a player has a lot of things at stake just like you have rightly mentioned both money and emotions are two strong factors that always control the way we bet on a casino and in other to be able to avoid sliding into indication on the long run trying to chase a particular direction unchecked.

You are right in the area of the casino not forcing players to place bets and the decision is solely left for the players to take,  but in the long run it all ball down to the fact that the casino already has a system in place to always put the interest of the casino first against that of the player and this position have put casino user in a corner were ther either rely on luck to make a winning and because of that player have to double the stakes in other to record some winning that could compensate their efforts.

These are extreme level of madness. Here it have moved to the level of kidnapping his own grandson. With majority of the gamblers similar is the situation, but it stands within the family by promises. They could've promised to their closer ones not to gamble, but out of addiction they won't be able to control themselves. This causes problems within the family.

The old person doesn't have any choice, here the common gamblers have got more choices to arrange money to spend. If not, even the common gamblers into these kind of activities isn't a big surprise.

Yeah, the thing is that it's not an overnight event. This is a gradual descent into madness through addiction.

Slowly, the person first spends a bit more than what they originally thought, then a bit more.

Suddenly they run out of money. First, they simply wait, but next time they push a bit more and managed to get a credit card or other form of credit to bet.

Once all the available credit is gone, then they start going outside of their own and start using other people. That's when this gets really dangerous.

The solution is to stop early, when it's simpler to stop, and there's less on the line.

I agree on the importance of self reflect because we are just humans, we know that we are bound to make some mistakes along the way and hence why we need to some time to reflect.

We always say this to our friends who love to gamble, but some seem to ignore it and still cross the line. They reason that their hopes tempt them and see that other people can make a lot of money at a particular game, so they try it. But instead of earning a lot, they lost a lot they can only regret. And after they have lost a lot of money, they should be able to reflect on themselves to learn from their mistakes and not repeat them but unfortunately, they keep repeating them. We can't help him to reflect but can only help him by continuing to warn him to limit himself in gambling.

A phrase or advice is usually not well received by those who are only concerned with gambling because the aim is to get big wins.
But they can realize by themselves when they have had the bitter experience of defeat and feel deep sadness for what they have lost.
Once I met a former heavy gambler and he had lost everything precious to him and even his family so he could stop gambling permanently.

Addiction is one of the esteemed highest level of madness one can be found with but there are some who also gambles more frequent but haven't showed or displayed any of this madness since they know how to manage themselves without having any detrimental side effects of gambling addiction, they know how to control and adjust whenever they are going off the limit they are expected to while some gamblers couldn't achieve this personal management and balance.

The old person doesn't have any choice, here the common gamblers have got more choices to arrange money to spend. If not, even the common gamblers into these kind of activities isn't a big surprise.

That's why we could also say that maturity is mot by age, being a responsible gambler is not by age but the level of personal understanding and discipline, some will also say that gambling is a matured men's game.

We can't control that's the fact! Even how concern you are it always be depends from the person itself if how they will going to control, and same with your statement, they will only reflect things when they already lost a lot, you can continue to remind them about it and not to fail to give them some words of advice to the point that you will spend time with them.

But the last resort to send them away to this situation is for them to accept the help and start changing their own directions and their
perspective about gambling.

for responsible gamblers it will be easier to control themselves not to think too much of gambling to seek big profits and they know when to stop gambling so they can never become crazy gambling addicts because gambling with responsibility they will only bet with small money and ready to lose.
it's different if gamblers who don't have responsibility they are more easily influenced by emotions and do crazy things to vent their emotions by chasing losses and if they run out of all the funds they have they will try to steal money from other people so they can still gamble.

from here we get the lesson that consistently gambling will be better than having to end up being a crazy addict.

[Dzwaafu11]

Those who cannot get out of gambling addiction, think that they have no other option but death. They can't stop gambling, so at first they adopt different strategies to manage their gambling money. In my country, unable to manage gambling money, gambling addicts abuse their wives. Gamblers torture their wives and demand dowry money and if they are unable to manage that money, they resort to inhumane torture with various tactics. Moreover, another problem is that many wives have even given their husbands divorce for not being able to manage the gambling money for Bangladesh and for not running the family properly. Then you definitely understand how big a crime it is to be addicted to gambling in our country.

Seriously, gambling addiction has caused some people to lose their lives, their homes, and other possessions. Some people have struggled to achieve their life goals; even taking care of their family's requirements has become a major issue for them, which has made them a problem in society. However, having a gambling addiction can have many detrimental effects on a person's life, forcing them to turn to something else that ruins their life.

However, the majority of these occurrences were the result of carelessness. I believe that if it's me who is gambling, I'll find a way to cut back on it. Since too much of anything is unhealthy, it is clear that the majority of people have gambling addictions as a result of excessive gambling. If you're lucky enough, you might be able to avoid becoming hooked if, for instance, you notice that you usually gamble but aren't yet really addicted to it. This is because some people today have developed addictions to gambling. And they are unable to stop it now.

Responsible gamblers are simply gamblers that can afford to keep coming back to give their money to the casinos...

It's an addiction, and some people have a really hard time dealing with it. People have lost their entire life savings in casinos, and even other people's money. It's not a pretty sight to see.

[ethereumhunter]

But they can realize by themselves when they have had the bitter experience of defeat and feel deep sadness for what they have lost.
Once I met a former heavy gambler and he had lost everything precious to him and even his family so he could stop gambling permanently.

It seems that a gambling addict has to experience a bad incident first and then he will regret what he has done was wrong. But it will be too late to regret it because he has lost something or many things that are valuable in his life, for example, his family. And maybe many gambling addicts have lost their families because of gambling. But actually, it was because he couldn't manage his gambling time and lacked self-control when gambling that he forgot to stop and eventually became a gambling addict. We must avoid this because the risk is losing everything precious to us.

We can't control that's the fact! Even how concern you are it always be depends from the person itself if how they will going to control, and same with your statement, they will only reflect things when they already lost a lot, you can continue to remind them about it and not to fail to give them some words of advice to the point that you will spend time with them.

But the last resort to send them away to this situation is for them to accept the help and start changing their own directions and their
perspective about gambling.

I think slowly, that person will realize that someone is always paying attention to him. This form of attention, for example, asks if you have eaten or not, suggests stopping for a while to rest, and so on. Even if they don't care about this kind of attention at first, they will eventually notice it and probably be more open to people by then.

But usually, people don't want to continue paying attention to that person and only for a while. They think that it is pointless to do so until the gambling addict begins to think for himself. Even though that is a form of attention that gambling addicts may not get, who wants attention from those around them.

[Silberman]

the thing is that most gamblers always thought that they could possibly outsmart the casino by going on in with high risk and in the end their end up being caught up in the web, self-control is very important but most important also is to set aside an exact amount you want to gamble with and anything above that should be avoided in all totality.

Don't ever spend too much time gambling trying to chase any direction is the fastest way to keep losing.

People on average overestimate their abilities and underestimate their flaws, so when faced with the challenge of outsmarting the casinos and beat them at their own game they naively think they can do it, then once they begin to notice this is not the case their ego takes over and they want to fulfill this goal, then once they realize this is not possible they want to at least recover the money they have lost, and each one of these steps leads them towards a path which is very difficult to escape as at that point many would have developed an addiction already.

If people cannot self-reflect, they will face difficulties they may not have imagined. And when they follow their ego too much instead of seeing that gambling will cost a lot of money, they will be disappointed and even frustrated to see the continuous losses. They will be trapped in their own ego and eventually unable to recover from their defeat. And the deeper they try, the harder it is to get out of gambling so it will only provide endless anger for them. Realizing that they have made a mistake and want to get out of gambling can save them from ruin and even bankruptcy.

A distinctive lack of self-reflection is something very common these days, in my experience many people have very short attention spans and they do not think long term, so they simply react to whatever happens to them, and instead of making a small research and finding out that obtaining profits out of gambling is almost impossible, they keep trying, and once they lose they keep trying anyway as at some point they think their luck will change.

Everyone of us thinks luck will change and that is why we gamble,most of us know that making profits in the long term throughout gambling is not almost impossible but impossible for real yet we are lured to keep playing because nowadays there are a lot of streamers who show us those huge wins and that is the biggest incentive at least for me to keep trying my luck every week.Of course I set a predetermined budget so I don't fall to addiction but I was once addicted in 2020 exactly because of these streamers.
