Keeping your gambling habit a secret.

[Rampagoe004]

Found some good points that I support in your post. It isnt necessary to yell on the street "I am a gambler! I am a gambler!" But it also isnt necessary to cross the street or try to ignore the question "Do you gamble?" when somebody asks. I am not keeping in secret that I gamble. And I dont welcome people "Hello, my name is TopTort777 and I gamble". And you know what, I have never had any trouble or any kind of harassment from not hiding that I gamble. I see only disadvantages of hiding such hobby and see no advantages.

Btw, would gladly listen to any advantages of hiding gambling hobby. (opinion from those where gambling is illegal does not count).

I think it's influenced by the environment a person lives in and how their family views gambling. Some people can be very comfortable with not hiding that they are gamblers. But people who live in environments and families who consider gambling to be something bad will certainly not be comfortable if they do not hide their gambling habits. I personally am very uncomfortable when someone knows my account and checks my total bet. I experienced a loss on one of the gambling sites and my friend made fun of me for looking at my account. Because of that, I never publish my accounts to anyone.

I agree with you, everyone's decision will probably depend on the situation or that means someone will make a decision by looking first at what the situation is, if for example as you said that they live in a place or area that prohibits gambling then maybe the right decision for them to keep their gambling habits secret and vice versa if for example their environment is a gambling-free environment then maybe they will not keep it secret and maybe they even gamble openly without hiding.

Basically all decisions are in the hands of each gambler and we cannot force them to choose one of them between keeping it secret or publicizing it, because as we discussed that most likely someone makes a decision depending on how the situation is in their environment, like you where you prefer to keep it secret because you feel uncomfortable when someone mocks you, and it doesn't matter because everyone is free in terms of making the best decision according to them.

Whatever we do publicly or privately has its advantages and disadvantages. Gambling is a game that has been privatized due to the recent integration of online casinos. So, people won't know if we gamble unless we open up to them. And nobody goes out on the street screaming that he's a gambler. As you said, Iroh, players only tell people they think should know, close friends or family. Sometimes the winning could be so outrageous that the player will unknowingly tell many people, out of joy, that he won big in gambling. There are cases like this where people wouldn't mind unveiling their gambling attitude. It has some advantages, especially in times of difficulty or problem gambling.

Those who kept their gambling habit a secret from everyone would have a hard time telling people when they've got an underlying problem. Talking to people as suggested is fine, as they'll serve as a watchdog on our behavioral change. This doesn't mean the whole society should know about this, we all deserve some privacy. Keeping such thing as gambling a secret, makes it sound like gambling is banned in the country. In a society where gambling is accepted, gambling platforms are built in all corners of the street. What is there to hide or keep a secret? It wouldn't hurt the people around us if we told them about the attitude. I don't see anything wrong with sharing the information. It shouldn't be a secret.

Pardon me, I'll have to wear the shoes of the secretive gamblers for a second, not trying to defend the fabled disadvantages of gambling secretly, but thinking like them would help provide some advantages to such gambling habit. People are different, and not everyone wants to feel the stigma placed on gamblers across every society. Concealing the habit and claiming to be a non-gambler, though a lie, helps these people to focus and not bother about what others think about them. They wouldn't feel introverted when discussing with other people around them.

Hence I think it gives the gambler a better feeling of himself and allows him to interact with others without getting stigmatized. For some people knowing that people have stigmas on them puts them into depression. Because they're not brave enough to withstand those side talks when he's passing by the street. Although not every neighborhood behaves this way, a colossal number of societies still place stigmas on people the moment they discover they're gamblers. It's also the reason most gamblers don't share their problems due to the negative vibes that'll be placed on them the moment they mention being addicted. I think escaping those stigmas is the only advantage of secretly enjoying a gambling habit.

I don't keep it a secret, I just don't talk about it, but if there are people around me who would ask about it then I would just answer it honestly.
I don't plan to deny it, if I would do something that I want why would I even deny it? it is not illegal in my country and it is normal.
They just need to open the topic in order for me to talk about my gambling habit, I don't really plan to brag about it or what, but I don't want the one to initiate the conversation.

We can easily decide to keep gambling activities secret or public, it all depends on personal decisions based on environmental factors, work, religion and perhaps other factors involved in financial losses. However, some people prefer to keep gambling a secret to other people because they don't want the predicate of gambling to be involved in someone's behavior, but in countries that have gambling regulations, there will be many people publicizing gambling even though they have to comply with strict regulations.

well, good for you, it just means that you don't think too much about what other people will comment about you once they know you gamble. Most of the gamblers here, the reason why they hide it is because they don't want to be judged and others are tired of explaining to other people and honestly speaking? I'm one od them. There are even instances where others think you have a lot of money because you gamble but they have no idea that there are only more losses than winnings.

Honestly, it’s really sad to see how sometimes some people don’t think twice before stepping over the line and being mean to others. It’s strange that they feel okay saying mean things, putting others down, or making them feel small, especially when nobody asked for their opinion. They really should stop and think about why they feel the need to do this and work it out on their own.

On the flip side, if you share something and instead of getting support, you get a bunch of negativity and have to stand up for yourself, it’s important to understand that the people doing this are probably just upset because they can’t do what you did. The main thing to remember is to keep going strong. You don’t have to make excuses or prove anything to anyone.

If someone resorts to personal attacks, it's a clear indicator they're not aligned with your values or well-being. Essentially, maintain your course and remember that your worth is not dictated by the opinions of those who seek to undermine you.

There are people who are like that on which they dont really care that they would really be already stepping into the line specially unto the things that other people been doing.
They would really be loving on trying to say up some words or really that simply loves to get involvement on others doing. We do know that community does really have that kind of bad
impressions towards gambling on which it would really be that normal that once a certain person do really get involvement with it then this is the moment they would really be
making some judgement as if they were that perfect people without even knowing on whats the actual reason on why people do gamble. There are really people who are really that
playing for the sake of fun.

I think, if you are greedy and your goal is to make a lot of money from gambling then gambling is definitely not for you. Because you will suffer and lose a lot of money

Gambling is just a game. It should never be expected to make a lot of money. This will increase the risk of losing money. Most of the time winning money in gambling depends on luck. It is not possible to guarantee that luck will always be good. So bet a certain amount of money, don't bet too much money.

If gambling is considered only as a game, and gambling is done only to entertain, it will not cause harm. But treating it as a profession will cause harm. And the gambler will definitely be under mental pressure.

Yes, for greedy people, gambling is not very good for them because they definitely hope and chase profits so they can become rich. Of course, this must be avoided for their own good.
It is true that gambling is just a game and there are very high risks involved if it is done not according to the rules and gambling basically does not guarantee a person's life will be decent, in fact it will change a person's life for the worse. and regret will come in time.
Yes, I agree that if someone makes gambling as entertainment then he will not feel the impact of the high risk, but with the caveat that he must still control the betting limits and when to play and how much money to deposit properly.

Some people who keep their gambling a secret, in my opinion, are people who don't want to take risks, because I myself do it like that, I don't want anything that could trigger conflict with the gambling I do. Therefore, keeping the gambling you do a secret, including the winnings you get, is good.

Keeping your gambling habit equals not wanting to take risks? Not necessarily so. People who keep their gambling habits a secrets perhaps don’t want their affairs out and about in the public. Risks has nothing to do with keeping your affairs private as you could always and at anytime, take same huge risks privately as others publicly do without anyone knowing about it.
I’m a big fan of keeping your affairs private, only sharing to those friends and family close enough and who deserve to have certain information about your activities.

"didn't want the affair to become public." In my opinion, that's the same as not wanting to take risks, but that's not a problem because everyone has different perceptions, so I also respect what you say. Some gamblers who keep their gambling secret so as not to reveal it to the public definitely have their own reasons, whether it's because Indeed, gambling is prohibited in one country or another, but what is clear in my opinion is to keep our gambling activities a secret, if we publish the gambling activities that we do, there will definitely be people who are not happy with what we do.

I myself don't publish the gambling that I do, I only show it to certain people who I really trust, one of which is my own friend who also likes gambling. and I kept it a secret from my family, because my family really doesn't like gambling. Even so, there are definitely people who like to publicize their gambling, because in my environment there are people like that, and I don't even like it, why should something like this be shown off proudly.

It's also crucial that a gambler doesn't talk to close friends about his habit, not to influence the person into gambling. Some players got addicted to gambling because they weren't guided by the informant on ways to escape addiction. However, these people, non-gamblers, may have not concluded on becoming a gambler, by just seeing adverts. Humans are easily influenced by friends or family. It's valid not to open up for this purpose. I could remember trying to gamble for the first long time ago, because a friend showed me his winnings. That was a drive to get me into gambling, but I didn't hold enough resources and wasn't prepared towards gambling habit. Although not everyone feels comfortable telling lies whenever they're asked or need to discuss how they got money for some expenses. So, they spill it out immediately to clear or remove a doubt. It's fun to share information with people, but talking to non-gamblers about gambling can destroy their life. If they must participate, they all need to mind the game and focus completely.

What a nice word you have used - a lie. Makes is sound like keeping gambling in secret means lie. A life without obvious benefits. A lie for nothing. Once again, I will point out that I dont care much about what other people, specially that I am not familiar much, think about me. People must be judged by their deeds and achievements, not by what they do, their hobby, their passion, their look and etc. How it looks then: a person gambles and society already tag him as bad, or have negative attitude to him. What if he has saved a kitten yesterday, and the day before saved people from burning house or helped grandpa to pass the street during heavy traffic?

Well because in fact, if you are just keeping it to yourself, and lose money, your behavior would change, your loveones would ask you what's happening in your life and you won't tell anything about gambling. You are basically lying to them and that will be an endless loop until you confess to them what you are dealing with. Carrying that burden would only make your life harder. Because you won't be getting the support or understanding that you need from your family. Regardless if what they have for you is a support or neglect, you must still have to tell them. That's too heavy to carry. So talk things to the people who are important to you. Live your life and don't let gambling take it from you.

So, you think gambling should be secret? Hide it, prevent 'contamination'? What a backwards thought. Silence breeds issues, not solves them. Addiction grows in the dark, unquestioned

You mention influence, which is real. People are influenced by friends, family, and ads. But hiding things from adults like kids? This is disrespectful and dumb. This don't discuss it and it'll go away strategy won't work

Your story about seeking that huge win, that feeling? It's genuine and dangerous. Staying mute just shows the good side, the dream of easy money. This is dishonest and sets individuals up to fail. We need the whole picture: the wins, the losses, the real deal

Yes as I said above that basically it all depends on the environment and the situation which will be used as a benchmark in terms of making the best decision, they will make decisions that are in accordance with the situation and the surrounding environment, simply put if for example their environment is anti-gambling then yes obviously the decision is to keep gambling activities secret, and if indeed the environment around them is free of gambling or that means their country legalizes gambling activities then maybe they will not be too secretive about their gambling activities which maybe they will even gamble in public places. But overall and in general I often find that the reason why people choose to keep their gambling activities a secret is because they don't want others to interfere and also they don't want others to have a bad view of themselves and their personality especially when their country is an anti-gambling country where most people have a negative view of people who are involved in this activity.

Even if the surrounding environment on which  you cant really be just that making yourself that too confident that it is really just that fine that you would really be making yourself that be able to let them others see on what you are really that involving into on which we know that this is something that would really be so not recommended on showing up.People around would really be always having something to say on which you cant really be able to make yourself that so sure that they wont really be having those negative views and impressions towards you. It would really be just that normal that you would really be that something be confident
but in behind you are already that in talks in the town basing up on what you are doing.

This is why i dont really like myself on getting exposed on whatever the things ive been doing. Im some sort of introvert when it comes to this aspect on which you would really be that making yourself
that too exposed on whatever things that you do. It would be best that you do keep it secret and silent.

As long as they can prevent the changing of their behavior, they can keep their gambling activity in secret and no one will knows about that. They can playing gambling without any one knows and disturb them and they will not breaks their limits because that's the important things for them. They can keep their gambling activity secret but they will also needs to learn about self-controls so their gambling activity will not makes them lose much money. But many people can't realizes about that and willing to still playing gambling without control and that makes them becomes addicted to gambling. If they becomes addicted to gambling, that will be difficult for them because their family will knows that from the changing of their behavior and will asks them about what's going on with them.

Each person has and does their part, normally the things that people keep secret because each person knows what they do and is respected, but in general things are usually very different, now if the activity gets out of control and the person begins to do bad things such as gambling a lot, becoming decapitalized, not having money because everything is spent on money, I think things are worse because generally one of the things that is done is to avoid by all means the appearance of an addiction, the addiction can appear in silent mode, that is why when we play we must know how we are going to concentrate, how we are going to do so that things can be different and we do not fall into temptations, when things are kept secret and it is very easy to make mistakes and Keeping those things to yourself, causing the errors to increase, that is the only thing you should avoid, because in silence you can also become addicted and no one would know until it is very obvious.

Each person has and does their part, normally the things that people keep secret because each person knows what they do and is respected, but in general things are usually very different, now if the activity gets out of control and the person begins to do bad things such as gambling a lot, becoming decapitalized, not having money because everything is spent on money, I think things are worse because generally one of the things that is done is to avoid by all means the appearance of an addiction, the addiction can appear in silent mode, that is why when we play we must know how we are going to concentrate, how we are going to do so that things can be different and we do not fall into temptations, when things are kept secret and it is very easy to make mistakes and Keeping those things to yourself, causing the errors to increase, that is the only thing you should avoid, because in silence you can also become addicted and no one would know until it is very obvious.

When you are already on the state of addiction then you would really be that ending up on doing things on which not a well minded being would really be doing like spending up tons of money, even getting some loans or trying out to steal or whatever those things that could make you do that you havent done before. On the time that addiction would really be consuming you out then
those behaviors and acts would really be coming out. If you have tending to keep it as a secret but in regarding with your actions which it turns out to be obvious then you cant really be able to hide it up even into your own family members on which it would really be something that would determining out that you are already addicted to it. There are really just those people who are really that having that too observant eyes around on where if they've seen something odd then expect that there's something those words or comments that they would really be giving out. It is really just that there
are people who are really that too judgmental on things on which there's nothing we can do about it.

Well because in fact, if you are just keeping it to yourself, and lose money, your behavior would change, your loveones would ask you what's happening in your life and you won't tell anything about gambling. You are basically lying to them and that will be an endless loop until you confess to them what you are dealing with. Carrying that burden would only make your life harder. Because you won't be getting the support or understanding that you need from your family. Regardless if what they have for you is a support or neglect, you must still have to tell them. That's too heavy to carry. So talk things to the people who are important to you. Live your life and don't let gambling take it from you.

As long as they can prevent the changing of their behavior, they can keep their gambling activity in secret and no one will knows about that. They can playing gambling without any one knows and disturb them and they will not breaks their limits because that's the important things for them. They can keep their gambling activity secret but they will also needs to learn about self-controls so their gambling activity will not makes them lose much money. But many people can't realizes about that and willing to still playing gambling without control and that makes them becomes addicted to gambling. If they becomes addicted to gambling, that will be difficult for them because their family will knows that from the changing of their behavior and will asks them about what's going on with them.

If that's the situation I can agree, if you can seperate things then that's okay keeping your gambling as secret without any behavioral changes will give peace in you. It's easy to keep your gambling secret but when you exceed or over spend your time, addiction can be trigger and that's going to create a bigger problem, gambling is for sure an addictive activities where you need good self-control and you need to make sure that you have that capabilities to stop or pause when the time you needed to stop.

In most cases, those who choose to keep their gambling as secret as possible are people who don't want any argument or they are not open to any opinions about gambling that's why they want to engage and they just want to play as discreet as possible.
