Gambling addiction is something quite different from domestic violence, only an irresponsible man will get himself into such menace of engaging into domestic violence, gambling addiction is just a pattern of someone gambling more often than not, domestic violence has to do with an individual person characters, temperament and behavioral attitude in tolerating each other, you're being addicted doesn't means you have bad manners to have engage in domestic violence, it may also be the other way round as the case may be.

Gambling addiction can bring out other bad characters that was already inside you but you have always being able to control the emotions. As you get addicted and start losing money you won't be able to control other emotions and they begin to come out to the open. We all have anger issues but we have being managing it or control it but when you get addicted and starts drinking too to forget about your losses, you won't be able to have control over your emotions.

Some individuals can control their violent behaviour even when they're addicted and losing money always but not all individuals can control it. Gambling addiction can lead to other addiction behaviour and also lead to other unfriendly behaviours this is the reason gambling addiction isn't a good thing to have. Don't put all your attention on gambling or you will be disappointed and frustrated from gambling.

Well done brother, everyone has a bad side, mine is anger management issue, I am able to keep myself under control but few times I always lose my cool, I might fall victim if I get addicted to gambling and lose a lot of money, but thankfully I know how to protect myself from gambling addiction before I even start gambling.

Some people are already bad before they start gambling, they are the type that use forces to hijack peoples belongings and put the blame on gambling, they result into stealing from other people and possibly inflicting pain of them.

Such people should face the law if they commit any crime, the law won't pity you for losing money in gambling and hurting other people because of your loss, what you give is what you get.

You don't have to be "bad." Anyone can resort to gambling. The issue arises when you're going overboard, and it's actually negatively affecting you. This can be due to a variety of reasons, such as mental illnesses like depression, social anxiety, stress, and so on. In my opinion, it's unusual for someone who's in a relatively pleasant state of mind to fall victim to a gambling addiction. Someone who's feeling good and fulfilled won't get upset over losing some money on gambling; they won't go after their losses, and they'll simply let go.

Unfortunately, when someone is having anger issues or a variety of mental illnesses, the line to cross between being furious and resorting to violence is pretty thin.

This is a case of violence that occurs in the household, which occurs very often where gambling addicts feel annoyed by the losses they experience in gambling. He knows he can't take out his disappointment in the casino because security will arrest him so he takes his disappointment home and beats his wife or children. This only makes the problem bigger. His household can fall apart because he often beats his wife or children. The authorities could also arrest him if his family reported him frequently committing domestic violence and also reported that he was addicted to gambling. He will probably undergo a harsh sentence because he has done bad things to his family.

Being addicted to gambling can be a thorn in the flesh. We have heard many bad behavior from gambling addicts that shows that gambling is a serious concern requiring serious efforts at curbing it. Many casinos also include in their disclaimer "gamble responsibly" and this shows the danger of gambling addiction.

However, I'm wondering if addiction can make someone become aggressive to the point of leading to domestic violence. Has there been any known case of it happening? Lets know what you have to say.

Been addicted in gambling is not something that can cause a violence but what it can cause you is to be a uncomfortable in your homes because everytime you will be thinking of the money you lose and how you spend money everytime without winning so with that it will make you to be uncomfortable but not be aggressive because right from the beginning you have already know that gambling is all about risk and when you don't take the risk that is involve in gambling you will be unable to make profit in gambling, so I believe that gambling can only make you to be aggressive and violence when you discuss about your loss with people.

Yes and I would say that you are really a loser when you want to always win in gambling but are not willing or ready to risk losing which in turn leads to a lot of problems which is really not commendable. After all gambling is always about winning and losing which you can win and you can lose at the end of the session, losing is inevitable and winning is a result that will only happen once in a while because it always depends on your luck, so it is normal that in the end you lose because this is gambling that risks the money of everyone involved.

On the other hand I think cases of violence that occur in domestic relationships are not uncommon and all of these actions are carried out by people who have absolutely no responsibility in their gambling activities such as those addicts who always want to win but are not ready to accept the fact of defeat at the end of the session which ultimately makes them trapped in their emotions and take it out on the closest people around them, so therefore do not put hopes of winning in gambling because it can make you even more disappointed when you lose.

Usually the violence that is carried out is because of financial reasons, usually someone who has lost too much gambling and is bankrupt but doesn't have any more money to gamble, let alone trying to recover his losses, there is no money for that, of course he will look for anyone who is nearby to ask for help, for example asking for money. to his wife to finance his gambling again but the wife did not have the money in her hands, so violence occurred against the wife and the household.

I often watch violent gambling films like that and it's true that the facts in real stories really do exist, so it's not surprising in my opinion if there is violence committed by gambling addicts, that's why people who are addicted to gambling always have a negative impact, not only can harming ourselves but also harming the people around us including our family, I think everyone knows that if gambling addiction continues to get worse it will be dangerous too, that's why so many gamblers always remind beginners of the dangers of gambling addiction.

Addiction is one reason why a gambler becomes irresponsible. They are not just aggressive and violent when asked how much they lose but their mindset is badly affected as well. Just to compare a responsible gambler to an addicted gambler, you will notice the big difference in their behavior and that will tell us about the influence on their minds and personalities. I can't blame people for thinking gambling addiction creates violence because that is what people are seeing. Casinos don't want gamblers to be caught in addiction but they don't have full control of it because, for me, it was a choice as we can avoid it if we want.

Gambling addiction causes devastating ripples. Definitely a financial black hole. I agree that films and stories reflect life more than we like to admit. Addiction ensnares and damages everyone, plunging gamblers and their families into despair.

Still, I favour a balanced view. While understanding the evil side, I think gambling can be fun when done carefully. The game's thrill, risk vs reward. Fun gambling with limits and losses is my preference. Knowing when to stop keeps it a hobby rather than a lifelong addiction.

Education and awareness matter. I believe in educating people about addiction and promoting self-control and responsible gambling. A tricky balance, but not impossible. Gambling may be fun and games without being destructive, with the appropriate approach.

But, how many of care actually? I am not one of those who gamble too much and lose. I do not gamble regularly but I understand the fact that when someone loses, it's hard for them to control themselves. But, I don't think it's wise to do violence in a family. You cannot hit your loved ones. If you do, then you are not responsible at all.

I do not recommend anyone to gamble further with the hope that they may recover something. Because I have been gambling for ages and most of the time I lose all even though when I was in recovery mode.

Here we are, generalising addiction without understanding human psychology. Saying gambling addiction is all about choice oversimplifies human vulnerability. It's not enough to say no; you must also understand why others can't. Casinos operate paradoxically. Despite advocating for ethical gambling, their earnings thrive on addiction. A business model, not morality, guides their judgements. Let's not absolve individuals of all blame. We must educate ourselves about addiction hazards and symptoms
We talk about avoiding addiction as if it's easy, but it's not. We need stronger support services, but we also need resilience in ourselves and our communities. Challenge the mechanisms that allow addiction and empower people to choose safer choices

Don't try to recover it, that's an even bigger mistake than being violent because the more you try to recover your lost money, the more money you will lose and that will keep making you more frustrated and angry over time which isn't a good thing. The best practice is to not take gambling too seriously and not have a lot of expectations because we know that when you expect something and it doesn't happen, you become disappointed and sad.

When you don't take gambling too seriously and have no expectations of winning a lot of money from it, you will find it easier to let go of the losses and you will have no remorse over time. I know it's not easy for everyone since most people don't have enough patience, but there is nothing wrong with trying.

Yes, I agree not to try to recover those losses because that will only result in more money being lost. It's best if we lose several times, we immediately stop the gambling game so that we don't experience even bigger losses. That will not be good for our emotions because we can despair and see a bigger loss, making us lose all our money. Yes, we must be able to consider gambling as entertainment and not take gambling too seriously so that we can accept the losses we experience and not think about recovering from those losses.

We can also immediately stop gambling when we have lost several times. We can also still maintain our emotions well so that when we return home, our emotions will remain stable, and we will not commit violence against our wives or children. That is a risk that we must accept and instead resort to violence against those who don't know anything about what we are experiencing because that will only traumatize them and show them that we cannot control our emotions after gambling.

We humans are naturally impulsive and we do know that when it comes to money then everyone would really be doing their very best on not to lose it but since we are dealing up with gambling
then it would really be just that a normal part of it and this is something that you must really be that able to realize on what are the things that you must do. If you are anticipating for winning
and you have lost big time and consecutive in gambling then you would really be ending up with having that extreme frustration on which this is something that might be resulting
into those actions which it could possibly lead into violence. We do know that there are people who are really that impulsive when it comes to emotion
on which it do comes into a point that they might be ending up on this way.

That is an example of how addiction makes someone can't control their emotions and leads to violence. Some partners have kept it quiet but some couples suffer too much which even causes separations.
In general, addiction only creates a bad image and contribution to the community which I think casino owners will look into it and give some ways to help their gamblers not to fall into this situation. I know they can monitor gamblers, their deposits, and how frequently they are gambling. Maybe at least setting some limits to them could help but yes, with the huge number of gambling sites or casinos, that won't fully limit gamblers as they will go to other sites. This is the biggest challenge and hard to stop people from getting into addiction.

It is very possible that gambling can lead to domestic violence because there are sometimes when you are on the verge of winning a gambling game,and before you know it,you've gotten lose,and maybe you placed a high stake on the game,it is worth making someone very angry.
If this has happened to you,and you have a  wife at home,if she makes you angry or adds her own problem,you might be tempted to lay your hands on her,but it all depends on people,a hot tempered person will easily hit his woman,but a responsible man will still overlook things.

That's the hard reality. We can experience it ourselves, because gambling is closely connected to emotions. We have different thinking, and the outcome isn't in favor of our choice, resulting in a loss. Further, we don't have money to try to recover what has been lost. Different thoughts will circulate in our minds, and anything said by our close ones or someone on the way back home will surely end in some sort of problem. This happens, and for the same reason, we need to be very cautious after a loss.

But on the other hand there are still some gamblers who are able to stay fine, and that means they have a formula to prevent emotions that dominate them when they are in a losing situation, and I would say that the formula they apply in their gambling is that they have the right understanding and point of view about gambling, especially in terms of risk so that with this then they will not dare to act carelessly such as for example in putting the amount of money, they only put the amount they can be responsible for when losing and this is very useful for minimizing the occurrence of emotions when you lose. In contrast to most gamblers or especially those who have experienced addiction where they always act excessively because they always prioritize winning so it is only natural that in the end they get emotional when it turns out that the final result does not match what they want. So in my opinion what must be corrected is your mindset and point of view on gambling, never consider gambling as an activity that produces because of course in the end you will end up with a lot of disappointment, for me gambling is nothing more than an activity to fill spare time when I'm off work.

I’ve never heard of anyone beating their wife due to gambling losses. There might be some gamblers that have anger issues but those issues exist regardless of whether they are gambling or not. A violent person can hurt their partner for a variety of reasons but you can’t blame gambling specifically when there are many factors which contribute to this behavior.

Well, this happens in Asian countries. Most of the time wife asks what you did with the money and the husband doesn't want to tell her the actual reason. When wife figures out that her husband gambled the money, they used to engage in arguments about why her husband spent the money on gambling, they started in a debate and it ended up beating or hurting their wife.

I consider this as too bad practice. If someone hurt their loved ones just because she wanted to know what you did with the money, they are too with the personality. That's why there is a saying that only gamble what you could afford to lose.
