Gambling addiction does more harm than mere financial loss

[irsykes]

I am not one to judge but every gambling addict I have meant are encountering trust issues in their relationships. It has affected them so much that they do not mind deceiving others just to be able to gamble. You see them sitting quiet and sober whenever they lose. They avoid all forms of human interactions and it affects their social and support networks. I think that anyone who is willing to speak up and intentionally seek for help will have someone running to save them.

People who are addicted to gambling will never think twice about cheating people to gain money. Gambling addicts will never think twice about cheating on their family members what they would cheat on others. I have a neighbor here who is so addicted to gambling that he doesn't earn any cash but the family is constantly taking money from his parents and wasting money by gambling.  When his parents say something, he gets angry. Constantly takes money from his mother if his mother doesn't give him money he even lays his hand on his mother.  After seeing how gambling is really harmful to a person or gambling turns a healthy life into an unhealthy environment. Play for them. Of course, everyone should refrain from such gambling so that his family's happiness and peace will be maintained and he will be able to live a healthy life.

My neighbor was the same as what you said but ended up committing suicide because he was in accumulating debt playing gambling slots. starting from deceiving close people to stealing, large debts without the family knowing. ended tragically when the debtors asked for the money to be returned immediately in a very large amount but the family was unable to pay the debt. Unable to pay the debt, my neighbor became frustrated/destroyed and even hanged himself due to the effects of excessive gambling.

This is really sad. A gambler must have his family. What is the situation with his family? A gambler never thinks about how much he is going to lose by gambling like this. done  Gambling is an addiction like a terminal cancer. If people gamble and make money, that's fine. But if they make money once, they lose a lot of money by betting twice as much in the hope of winning. If a gambler becomes in debt or damages by gambling more than his income, his debt will increase day by day until he is in no condition to repay the debt and at the last moment he has to pay the debt with his life. Really such incident is very sad as the day goes by like the youth the tendency of gambling is increasing. Therefore, everyone should refrain from such gambling so that his own life, family and society can live well and civilly.

Your neighbor is a type that's borrowing money to play gamble and he/she is hoping that he will win and pay back the depts. However everyone has their ways of dealing with their personal life. Some people have borrowed money to invest in different places and they gain it, but gamblers should be aware that gamble is something that anyone might be lucky in the end doesn't mean that they should use borrowed money to try it. Instead of using borrowed money to play gamble it is better to use borrowed money and do investments or start up a business, although it's risky too but there's nothing that doesn't come with risk.

If you are a parent and you have kids looking up to you, it's best to hide your gambling addiction and activities because whatever they see from their parents will reflect on them and give them that idea it's fine to do it because their parents are doing it.

A role model won't do that or don't even gamble at all if you want your kids to be the same as you and they'll grow up properly.

But as a parent, you know what's best for them and you have to be prepared with how you take care of them because no one knows the surroundings and influence that they will be with when they grow up to the right age.

That is not good, and should not lead to such crime. I'm not saying it's bad to borrow money, but if the borrowed money is only used for gambling, it's really a wrong decision and not right. I can understand better if the loan is used in business.

If it's not for business and emergency purpose it will be used for sure no matter what it's used for it's not really good, because of the stress humantion in depression the reason why he can't control himself to stop himself from committing suicide.

but that's what often happens to the people around us. I think if you have friends who are gamblers, you must have found friends who lost gambling and then borrowed money from you. I feel that it will be very difficult to ask for the money back.
The impact can spread not only to gambling addicts. it could reach his family and friends. In some cases of gambling addiction, some of them go to extremes even to the point of hurting other people.

That's a tragic scene there, he caught up with addiction due to his interest in holding money. His newly developed excessive gambling habit, wouldn't allow the player comfort when with no funds. It'll seem abnormal to them, victims, as they'll need to make some for gambling. Sad he engaged into illicit businesses for generating money for gambling.

The turning point is where he chose to be indebt. It's really a bad choice for gamblers. As it affects the player's thought and puts his life in a hurry. He'd want to resolve his troubles at every chance, a fast means of summoning more troubles to himself. However excessive gambling definitely hits harder on the player that he mostly won't adapt to a right choice. Seems the mental effect closes all form of meaningful ideas on ways to make money. Because most victims behave alike, exhibiting similar actions like stealing and deceitful means of generating money.

In my country many things happen, not just suicide, to going crazy and even worse, seeing it on the news, to mutilation due to uncontrolled emotions due to the effects of gambling. World development is increasingly advanced, but if we can't process it, it will attack us. This is an important lesson for me. Seeing the situation where it occurs is the basis for not overdoing something gambling.

If you are addicted, it is very detrimental for anyone who will experience it because an addict usually does everything they can to get money to fulfill their gambling desires. Either by borrow money or ask parents or relatives for money at home to gamble and if the family has no money, they will be reckless. take out a fairly large loan without thinking clearly, what if the money ends up being wasted or lost due to a loss then how will they be able to pay the debt? An addict always thinks that if he has the money in his hands, one day he will be able to make a lot of money, but in reality, the greater the losses he experiences, the more it will plunge him into unhealthy gambling.

From your neighbor's case, it shows that gambling addiction will make a person mentally depressed if they are unable to control themselves, especially if they take out a large loan and they don't have a job to pay off the debt in installments. This will make the gambler even more stressed and depressed until they end up committing suicide. In fact, I can't even imagine how depressed he was when he was visited by a debt collector to pay off his large debt, even other people who listened to him would feel his sadness, but once again, the only person who can decide not to get addicted is ourselves, how can we prevent that from happening.

Yes, gambling addition does more harm because you may continue losing on the process of trying to get back what you’ve lost and you find out that you have lost more financial losses is just a one time something so common addition is very bad at least be a gambler, but keeping yourself busy all the time gambling then why your income is not that much it’s really really bad because you are affecting yourself in a bad way

Yes in gambling one can have continuous loss because here no one can guarantee his winnings  Although people can make some predictions about WINNING, no one can guarantee it here. Because it depends on luck. So there will be a possibility of many financial losses.  If someone uses gambling regularly and is serious about gambling then his loss is sure. Because of this, gambling does not have to be taken seriously.  Those who keep it fun also lose a lot but this is limited to their ability to lose. And those who use it seriously or for the purpose of income become very addicted to it and lose excessively and the caste sometimes takes on a terrible shape.

This is because gambling is an activity that has no certainty, it could be said that gambling is place that always has big risk of failure and no one can really guarantee victory.
Predictions or gambling strategies are just about increasing opportunities, not about certainty or guarantees of winning, apart from that, I sure those who say they often win or show off their wins also often experience defeat.
From these losses there will always be various impacts that cannot be taken lightly because losses are not only about money but also problems such as mental health and emotional levels which can make gambler lose control and do bad things in his life.

It just that those who have never experienced all these things will never be able to think well and try to have the right approach, but I sure that as time goes by every gambler will feel it.

Borrowing money to gamble is bad because there is no guarantee that they can win from gambling. They can experience more losses than they imagine. That will only make them develop a gambling addiction and if that happens, their lives will become a mess.

His gambling addiction would ruin his life and finances and when he realized it, it had all happened. He will have difficulty fixing it because he may not have anyone left. Maybe the people closest to him had left him because they couldn't bear all his actions.

People who are addicted to gambling can do many things that are detrimental to them. He can make a short decision to end himself after he sees that he has lost everything. Many cases like that are caused by gambling addiction so we must really avoid it.

Honestly I have one of my fellow gamblers who can say that he is quite addicted to gambling, and I would say that what you said above is true that someone who has fallen into gambling especially if they are already in the addiction phase then usually they will make the people you are around as an alternative to borrowing money when they don't have money to gamble with. and it is a common occurrence in my gambling environment that they do not return the money they borrow until finally the scenario causes a problem in their friendship or socialization relationship with others who lend money to them, And it is a common occurrence in my gambling environment that they do not return the money they borrowed until in the end the scenario causes a problem in their friendship or socialization relationship with other people who lend money to them, and I am also one of the people who lend money to them which in the end my money is not returned. This means that it is true as some people say that when someone has fallen into addiction then they will not create a downfall for themselves but also involve the people around them.

uncontrolled gambling until out of control becomes destroyed. Previously, this person worked as an office worker and started out considering gambling as entertainment, but after a long time he became addicted. defeat or money continues to run out until selling land, vehicles and large debts. because it's too much. the last sentence said was "the money must be returned because it was used up a lot"

Most of my friends who borrow money from me are drug addicts, I've known it just recently. Well, they are not paying me back and I doubt they will come to my house to pay me because I've not been responding to their messages ever since I found out where they are using it.
The same goes with gambling and actually the money runs out faster here than it is with other addictions. It's true, that borrowing money just for the sake of gambling should not be done. It will just bury us in more debt and it will not be a healthy position where people whom you borrowed from are messaging or calling you all over the day just to remind you about your debt.
I don't borrow money even from the bank, the interest rates make me back off from it. And I've seen my colleagues who have credit cards having a hard time paying which may have caused trauma to me or I learned from that lesson.

When the gambling addiction has reached the extent of having to borrow money even from banks or loan merchants to fuel your gambling desires, then its obvious the damages being caused is now more than mere financial loss, the person is putting himself and his family in serious debt and such harms not only the gambler, but his family's reputation and causes them serious problems trying to settle his shortcomings in order to save face in the society.

I remember clearly when my brother was stuck in gambling addiction, I literally pay for his debt accumulations almost daily so that my parents would not be fully aware of the length he goes in his gambling spree in order to conserve the health of my ageing parents and most importantly my father who has High blood pressure and Sugar problems. It worked at that period, but it cost me a lot of useful money that I would have utilized properly for my own benefits, but I'm grateful it didn't cost me my dad as well.

Gambling addiction affects the person, his finances, reputation and so does it affect his loved ones as well, loans are very bad quite alright because of its high interests, and worse when it's not being used for profitable ventures. The ugliest thing is that the interests keep accumulating and piling up more financial losses for whom it may concern at a later time to save the gambler.

World development is increasingly advanced, but if we can't process it, it will attack us. This is an important lesson for me.

bad things that can happen when they are addicted to gambling, because when they become addicted to gambling they will feel excessive pressure so that it can affect their mental state where they can become stressed, even worse, to the point of committing suicide because they cannot accept the amount of pressure they have to endure. they accept. Around me, there are lots of bad cases of people who are addicted, commit suicide, rob, even kill other people or their own relatives because they want to gamble, maybe they do this because they don't have money anymore but the feeling of wanting to gamble is still strong so they dare to do it. big risky action.
Of course, the bad impact of gambling addiction will not only damage finances, but other things can also be harmed, such as relationships or indeed your own mental health. With the many news or cases of bad impacts from gambling that have occurred, this can be used as a lesson for ourselves so that we don't. gambling excessively. because there is no way we want to feel like we are in a position like that, because that is not the purpose of gambling.

[Crypt0Gore]

I am not one to judge but every gambling addict I have meant are encountering trust issues in their relationships. It has affected them so much that they do not mind deceiving others just to be able to gamble. You see them sitting quiet and sober whenever they lose. They avoid all forms of human interactions and it affects their social and support networks. I think that anyone who is willing to speak up and intentionally seek for help will have someone running to save them.

People who are addicted to gambling will never think twice about cheating people to gain money. Gambling addicts will never think twice about cheating on their family members what they would cheat on others. I have a neighbor here who is so addicted to gambling that he doesn't earn any cash but the family is constantly taking money from his parents and wasting money by gambling.  When his parents say something, he gets angry. Constantly takes money from his mother if his mother doesn't give him money he even lays his hand on his mother.  After seeing how gambling is really harmful to a person or gambling turns a healthy life into an unhealthy environment. Play for them. Of course, everyone should refrain from such gambling so that his family's happiness and peace will be maintained and he will be able to live a healthy life.

My neighbor was the same as what you said but ended up committing suicide because he was in accumulating debt playing gambling slots. starting from deceiving close people to stealing, large debts without the family knowing. ended tragically when the debtors asked for the money to be returned immediately in a very large amount but the family was unable to pay the debt. Unable to pay the debt, my neighbor became frustrated/destroyed and even hanged himself due to the effects of excessive gambling.

He is very stupid for taking his life, if he get arrested or charged to court and get locked up how will he pay the debt back? So they will have to come up with an agreement to start paying the money back.

I know someone who owe a lot of money too, he was arrested few times and they made him Pay the money slowly through is job, as he get paid every month some percentage is sent to the person he iowesand the rest is for his survival and also his family too.

Every country has its debts, even the rich have debts too, taking your life because of debt makes absolutely no sense, something he could have prevented if he only used money that belonged to him, he will now be punished for taking his own life in the afterlife, he can't escape this.

Financial losses are better, because you invested your money hoping to bring you rewards, but gambling is different, you want to hit the jackpot in a day, it will surely comes with emotions and mental issues if care is not taken.

If you are a parent and you have kids looking up to you, it's best to hide your gambling addiction and activities because whatever they see from their parents will reflect on them and give them that idea it's fine to do it because their parents are doing it.

A role model won't do that or don't even gamble at all if you want your kids to be the same as you and they'll grow up properly.

But as a parent, you know what's best for them and you have to be prepared with how you take care of them because no one knows the surroundings and influence that they will be with when they grow up to the right age.

Technology as made everything very easy you don’t even need to show people you are gambling because when they find out you are gambling they just feel you are not responsible, and they forget the people are just trying to survive. And gambling is not as bad as people think except for people that have taken it extreme even selling there houses just to get money to gamble. And if am with my family all I need to do is just relax in my room with my cell phone because when children starts seem you the might want to be like you because they might understand what it takes to gamble. And they might not be really able to control their self towards gambling and God help them they don’t win on a first attempt then they will feel encouraged, growing use to gambling is not a good thing at all some of them don’t archive anything and most of them even turn to addicts so it is better not to disclose to kids.

And there people that gamble and their kids don't gamble. And their parents that don’t gamble and their kids gamble it’s a vice versa thing. The best thing is to keep it to your self gamble on your phone that is if you gamble. To avoid drama of have to advice your kids. Your surroundings to matters to and that is why any environment you want to stay with your family make sure you have done a good analysis of that environment because their are things worst than gambling, from drugs and more, when you talk about addiction the worst should be drugs because it is also a threat to your health.

[Slow death]

I already had an addicted relative, so I can speak from personal experience about how painful it is to have an addicted relative, the person spends years fighting for the addicted relative to be cured and it is not an easy path, because the addicted relative can tell you that this is cured, he can promise that he will no longer get involved in gambling, but in a short time he gets involved in gambling again and the nightmare returns once again to torment the relatives who have to start over from scratch looking for a cure for the relative addicted to gambling. There are even times when a gambling addict disappears from home for a long time

and all the relatives are crying for many months looking for him, it is such a sad situation to spend many months looking for someone without knowing if that person is alive or not, without knowing if that person is in good health, is eating well or not. So it's difficult to live with an addicted relative, addicted people destroy their lives and those of everyone close to them. That's why it's always good for people to be responsible, to be aware that their actions can affect other people.

It worked at that period, but it cost me a lot of useful money that I would have utilized properly for my own benefits, but I'm grateful it didn't cost me my dad as well.

Gambling addiction affects the person, his finances, reputation and so does it affect his loved ones as well, loans are very bad quite alright because of its high interests, and worse when it's not being used for profitable ventures. The ugliest thing is that the interests keep accumulating and piling up more financial losses for whom it may concern at a later time to save the gambler.

When someone decide to borrows money to playing gambling, that will be the worst decision that he makes because he will have to pay the debt the other money whether he wins or lose. If he wins, he can pay the debt using his wins money, but if he lose, he must search for the other money to repay it. The problems is when he doesn't have any money to repay and that problem will be bigger if he still borrow money from other people just to repay his debt. Not to mentions about the chance of gets addicted to gambling after he borrows money for some time because gambling can attracts someone to keeps playing gambling without he can stops. When someone becomes addicted to gambling, that will makes his financial becomes worst. He will lose all of his money without have a big chance to gets his money back by keeps playing gambling. That's why if you wants to playing gambling, you must uses the money you can afford to lose and never borrow money from other people so you can avoids to repay the money.
