How my gambling life started.

[Dewi Aries]

Then the casino and other online bet platforms was introduced in time. This was how I was exposed and my begining of gambling life!

Yes, all of us must have experienced experiences in the gambling arena, whether it started illegally or legally, the point is that everyone has a life story of first being involved in gambling.

I also have a long life history in gambling, where I got to know online gambling through a friend, he taught me everything so that I could master gambling like now, but basically gambling has made me happy and difficult, while I was still learning, especially online crypto gambling, however, I always hoped that gambling could make me better in all aspects.

And everyone has quite different experiences in their gambling activities, all of this depends on how they treat their gambling and what their perspective on gambling is, I will say this when you or anyone asks what impact will be received by gamblers during their involvement. What is worrying is the gamblers who take gambling too seriously, especially for those who think that gambling is an earning activity, on the other hand I can already ensure that in the end you will experience many bad effects when gambling on the wrong path.

Yes we are the same, I also know about gambling through one of my friends, he introduced me to gambling which eventually I took an interest in this activity, to be honest in the early stages I can be said to be one of the gamblers who has a big ambition to win but in the end when I have experienced a very bad thing where I really have financial problems and with experiences like that then now I really understand about gambling, never put any hope in this activity because gambling is actually nothing more than a probability activity that only provides "opportunities" (not that you always win), the possibility of risk will always lurk you and even the possibility of bad impact is much greater, therefore we must be very careful in addressing and treating gambling if you do not want to end up with a lot of problems.

Gambling activities are not the same for everyone but everyone experiences them differently. I didn't play but watched card games and those who won had a lot of fun. I have seen more gamblers who after winning a bet re-bet with the money of that bet and then it's all over. If the gambler is careful before starting the game the excitement will be less. Many gamblers have high ambitions in the early stages and lose the chance to win when they want to get more.

In years past before the casino and other online gambling bet platforms was discovered and brought to our knowledge, I and some family relatives used to play the card games but on the sequence some of us were becoming unserious in the game that it wasn't competitive so, we decided to have stakes with little amount of cents of $ which we could afford to loose just to buckle and cheers everyone up.
Time goes where we increases the stakes to make us more serious to the extend we began to bet about $1 which we can afford to loose at other expenditures but it seems unbearable loosing it on the caused of betting.
On a serious note, we saw this as a mere bet of competitions and not as gambling. As we advances, we saw it as a domestic gambling and not as the wild gambling that could cause one emotional outbreaks.

Time goes that it becomes unusual that we began to feel offenced and rebelled that we as relatives(1 family) are extorting from each other without empathy for one another and then, we unconciously grew wild developing in sentiments, greeds and taking it as an avenue to make profits.
Alongside, it was more of serious business than the just fun.

Then the casino and other online bet platforms was introduced in time. This was how I was exposed and my begining of gambling life!

I think it's too bad that the whole family has been adversely affected by gambling. At the same time, it seems to me that if everyone decides to end gambling together, then it should be easier than fighting addiction alone. After all, everyone can keep an eye on each other and morally support each other. And the strongest in spirit will set a great example to all others. I am sure that this way it will be possible to improve the common affairs of the whole family.

if you are addicted you will never feel bored and there are also addicts who don't have an emotion anymore but it's great that you have recovered. Maybe you are not totally addicted? Although some totally addicted gamblers can still realize their mistakes and tries to change their situation.

It was like there is a miracle that suddenly happened to them but I guess this is also because their loved ones and friends are praying for their recovery as they can tell that their friend or family member is struggling despite him continuously playing a gambling. If the gambling you play is free, then yeah, time is only the one that you will lose and not money.

Everyone has different experiences, especially when it comes to gambling, especially since we live in different environments too. Some of us may have been familiar with gambling since childhood and are used to placing bets, but some people were new to gambling when crypto was launched because there were many crypto casinos at that time. But we can have fun from gambling, and as long as it is a fun activity and there is no desire to chase wins, we will not experience any problems because we just want to enjoy gambling as entertainment. When we feel the desire to continue gambling, we should immediately stop gambling activities because it will only make us spend more time and money and we might experience more losses too.

Just like my gambling experience is quite different from my other friends who are gamblers also. We just have to understand what we are doing and not to jump on a conclusion on someone that does not have a perfect gambling lifestyle. We all have different reasons why we choose to gamble and that do not make us to go astray. There are gambling who have a good and appealing gambling journey because they have someone who was able to direct them on what to do and how to start their gambling journey. Everything is based on discipline and how we have mastered the act of gambling to help us to make few dollars in the market.

[agustina2]

I'm amazed that there are people who remember truly how their gambling life started. Surely most of the gamblers didn't even know how they became involved in gambling. As in my case, since my childhood I've been involved in gambling in different forms which only started as a fun game then eventually while growing up, now involved with high stakes and real money.

It's not wrong to do gambling even though we have been doing it for several years.  As long as we keep ourselves always responsible for our actions, without harming people around us or becoming changing into a worst person, then we are good to just continue.

Yes, we all have our experience with gambling which includes the first day of our gambling and what caused us to make that move. But in my experience, it is not in the regular way that people narrate theirs, and maybe that's why I engage in gambling more politely than most people do. I've seen offline casinos since I was young, and I was in secondary school then. I've always been curious about how they go about it. They call it "Pool" then. It was after this that other ideas came in this regard (at least in my locality) and more were seen but I never gambled it for us. I was able to avoid it until my university days, so I was mature enough to engage in it.

This is all by myself without the interference of any friend, so it has been easy for me to play when I want to play and stay off it if that is what I want since no influence. This is a good mindset to gamble as well, and am proud to have earned more than what I've lost. Even though the difference is so small in comparison, it's still worth the kudos.

First time experience is never been that forgettable but its true that there might be some people who do totally forgotten on how they do first be able to experience gambling.
On my part then this isnt directly talking about gambling on casino or into those online but rather into those games which it does involved money like with those flip coins
when im was still on high school as i do remember. This is a local game in between other kids which you are really that still risking your own coin that does have value.
It would really be just that depending on you whether you would really be that tending to engage out of curiosity or really that aim for money.

It sure is about the discipline especially if it's inside the house.
In my family, we are not allowed to gamble with money on the line but we are allowed to play card games. We learned it from our uncles and aunts and when we played outside some old people played it too.
Then we tried it in our house, me and my cousins. There's no fun when there's nothing on the line so we decided to put a bit of entertainment to it. We powdered the coal and wet it a bit so that it would stick to the face of whoever lost the game. Then we would look in the mirror and our aunts living in the same house will just laugh at us. It's childish, well we are kids. But still, the competition is high because you don't want your face to be marked by so many lines of black coal and it will be more difficult to wash. The old ones didn't stop us because they knew it wouldn't do us any harm.
We never played that card game outside with money against strangers. 

I feel bad for OP but I am thankful that we didn't end that way. We are still on good terms as cousins although they don't gamble like me.

I havent been able to encounter real life situations or conditions that all of the family members are really that gamblers. Cant really be able to imagine on how much they would really be able to spend money on a single day basing up into the activity that they are doing. In regarding about addiction then it would really be that something that cant be that detected since each one of you
are really that engaging into gambling on which telling someone and do give out some advises would really be that somewhat pointless because you all are involved with gambling but its true
that there would really be one on telling that other members are already addicted to it and it should really be stopped. This is why it would be best that you should really know on what you are doing.

[Wiwo]

This is a usual experience for many gamblers because when we first started,  it was all at the basic level with just either friends and close families,  but along the line,  it grew into something serious and before the online casinos became very popular lately,  many at times we have seen some form of transgression from one level to another with development and involvement as times goes on.

When we were young we used to perceive those older people who indulged in that kind of game with real money as an irresponsible set of people especially back then when gambling was restricted and police always came after those who endured in that game publicly.

[lienfaye]

I also started playing card games with my relatives using just a small stake as well. It's more on having fun and it serves as our bonding when we are together. But because any form of gambling here is already prohibited (aside from lottery since it is regulated), there's no way we can enjoy playing card games just like before.

Fortunately there's an online casinos where we can play at home conveniently. It became the new way for gamblers to keep playing. Though of course the risk of becoming addicted is there if you have no self-control.

[junder]

If the gambling you play is free, then yeah, time is only the one that you will lose and not money.

In my opinion, someone who is addicted to gambling will not easily realize that the actions they are doing are only making them miserable. Only a few people who are addicted can realize that the actions they take are only detrimental to them, in my opinion they can realize that if they experience an incident that really slaps them and makes them aware, and if someone is addicted to gambling they will not be able to easily come to their senses even if they are given advice from people around you, whether it's family or friends.

Also, in my opinion, someone who is addicted to gambling will not easily recover if he himself does not have awareness, because encouragement from people around him will be in vain if the main perpetrator does not have good awareness. This is different from someone who has awareness, maybe they can recover without any encouragement from other people, because they have awareness and the desire to be able to fix everything.

My experience was quite different from yours tho, I and my siblings use to play card games and ludo while young and it got to a point where we had to construct This chess game in a board and use bottle cans head to play and then we usually hide it from our parents
It got to one faithful day we were having clean up in the house and my parents saw the board,then my dad rose up in anger and question us,we told the truth actually and we were warned never to play it again that it's gambling we are trying to practice here and it's not permitted in his house,we didn't see it as nothing so important till I came in contact with one or two friends .

So sometimes we stay together and they talk about their winning in bet and so on and I also want to be part of it,Thi wasn't having much funds but I tried betting for some occasions and boom one day I cashed out a huge amount and what I did was to reach out to those friends and family that stood by me and encourage me too.. nevertheless I don't gamble just like that,yes it's for fun but I place my mind on what I want to achieve and I get it.

If your goal is nothing more than to find fun when you have free time with your relatives or relatives then obviously you have taken the right approach where you only bet a small amount in each bet, however this is much more advisable because after all our goal is just for  fun so it is more appropriate to use a small budget, because of course the fear is that you lose an amount that you cannot account for if at that time you put a larger amount.

On the other hand, if physical gambling is strictly  prohibited in your place, then obviously there is no other choice but to switch to online gambling because it makes it easier for anyone to gamble wherever and whenever you want, you can gamble just at home and enjoy every round but still we must really maintain caution and vigilance because after all, whether it is physical or online gambling, of course, the possibility of bad effects is still inherent in it and anyone can end up in a slump, so there is no reason not to apply limits and caution wherever you gamble.

Hear you clearly. Like you, I started gambling with a friend, became passionate, and eventually fell. Im among those who've traveled it. I initially thought gambling may be a good method to get money, but I learned how risky it is.

But I've learned to enjoy gambling as fun, not a source of revenue. Risk and uncertainty excite. My approach is lighthearted and I set hard limitations to avoid financial depression. Gambling is about the thrill of the unknown, so remember that. By doing so, we avoid its risks.

Hear you clearly. Like you, I started gambling with a friend, became passionate, and eventually fell. Im among those who've traveled it. I initially thought gambling may be a good method to get money, but I learned how risky it is.

It happens just like the drinking problem. If not kept in moderation it can bring in bad news. But in a controlled manner, it can be fun and a good way to spend some time and money with friends.

But I've learned to enjoy gambling as fun, not a source of revenue. Risk and uncertainty excite. My approach is lighthearted and I set hard limitations to avoid financial depression. Gambling is about the thrill of the unknown, so remember that. By doing so, we avoid its risks.

Indeed it is the nature of players to hunt the thrill and gambling is one of the easily accessible avenues of getting that thrill. But do spend time to play some sports, undertake some adventure hikes and travelling - these things have an effect on the clearing of your physical and mental health if gambling for too long.

Gambling should not be the one controlling your life, rather you should be the one doing that.

My gambling history also started with card games, only instead of playing with my family I played with the older kids in the backyard. At first we played without using money, but later we started to play for money, because it allowed us to get not only enjoyment from the game itself, but also to get a reward in case of victory.

I have been gambling for several decades and I do not regret that I once saw card games being played in the yard.

A family that is addicted to gambling will clearly be judged negatively by other people, what's more, the addiction they experience will have increasingly negative impacts, the family itself will no longer respect each other, oppress each other and resort to blackmail.  Of course this is very unfortunate, the impact is that one family will always be underestimated by other people because they have bad behavior from the activities they carry out
