Recovering gambling addict stories

[Dave1]

The worst thing that can happen to a person is to develop a gambling addiction since it will ruin relationships with family and friends and cause them to lose focus on the things that really matter in life, which is their family.

I don't why some people find it difficult to comprehend that gambling doesn't bring wealth, rather it will drain your savings and cause you to lose your family. Even after being aware of this, people are still found to be hooked on gambling(what a sad world we live in)

It's like the psychology of gambling itself, it's been part of us and it's really hard to get away from it. And every day we see more gamblers started their journey because it is more accessible more than ever with internet and online gambling.

So it's vicious cycle, someone might recovered and share his stories like this, and then somewhere in the opposite side of the globe, a new individual is slowly turning into a addict and ruining his life and hopefully he can go back to his sense before everything crumbles in his face.

Getting addicted to gambling can gives that person many problems that he can't imagine because that can ruins everything he had, including his relationships with family and friends and people in their social. He can lose everything he had, including family and can't fix the problem if he doesn't realizes that his lives is ruin.

Recovering an addicted needs awareness from the addicted to see that their lives already changed and become worst. They needs to know that they can't get many things that they had before because they don't see the other things as something important to them. They only want to playing gambling and that will not stop them to take a break. It's why someone needs to learn and practice self-control to prevent the bad things that can comes.

Many people are attracted to gambling by adrenaline and the opportunity to earn big money quickly. But it is important to remember that playing for money can become a habit and lead to ludomania.

In order not to become a ludomaniac, it is important to set time and money limits for yourself, not to play under the influence of alcohol or emotions, and not to try to "recoup" after losing. It is important to play responsibly and remember that gambling is entertainment, not a way to earn money.

Yes, from the reasons mentioned above, of course what is recommended is that it is better to gamble for fun or entertainment, but if you want to come to that mindset, you must have a basic and correct understanding of gambling because most gamblers usually gamble with unrealistic intentions and goals, such as to make money, one of which is usually a mindset and goals like this that lead them to many excessive actions which in the end, instead of making money, they suffer even large losses. .

On the other hand, sometimes even though you come with the suggested mindset and goals, that doesn't mean you are free from various bad possibilities such as addiction if you are a fairly active gambler, because in some cases usually during their journey they experience several unexpected things. Unconsciously, it's like experiencing an increase in interest which can change the idea of entertainment into making money, so if you really want to get involved in gambling then I think you have to re-consider it from various angles, especially preparing various formulas which might be able to prevent some changes in yourself. You are as I mentioned above, and maybe one of them is maintaining self-awareness and always being rational when you are running a session.

The key to truly enjoying gambling as entertainment lies in having a fundamental and accurate understanding of how gambling works. Gamblers should be recognizing that the odds are typically stacked against the player in most forms of gambling. Understanding this fundamental principle helps gamblers set realistic expectations and avoid chasing unrealistic goals of financial gain. Basic understanding of the rules and strategies is also equally important. Many games are not only about putting bets to wait for luck.

Gamblers need to make informed decisions, increasing their chances of winning within the context of the game's inherent probabilities. This knowledge also helps in setting reasonable limits on spending and avoiding impulsive or excessive actions that could lead to significant losses. Having a mindset focused on enjoying the entertainment value of gambling while maintaining a clear understanding of its inherent risks can mitigate the potential negative consequences associated with unrealistic intentions and goals.

Yes as I said earlier above that understanding is the basic key for anyone to stay in the safe zone that you will only gamble with the intention and purpose of seeking entertainment when you are having a boring free time, you will not experience excessive interest in gambling because you understand that gambling is always about risky activities which means that it can lead you to bad possibilities at any time that sometimes without you realizing it. After all, gambling is a business for casinos which means that casinos build this activity to benefit themselves or simply they hide behind the idea of "odds" in gambling and when you take the odds too seriously then you will usually become a victim of the casino as experienced by addicts.

Making the right decision should always be based on the right understanding and also a qualified level of awareness because only this can make you always look at things rationally which in turn makes you able to make the right decision in every situation, and something that is based on awareness and a rational point of view usually tends to lead to more actions for prevention, and the point is that the right understanding along with a qualified awareness will be able to minimize all unwanted possibilities.

On the time that you have engaged with gambling then it would really be always best that you should really be that careful on making yourself not to be addicted because once you do get shackled with addiction
then there's no way that you could easily be able to get out. Self realizations on the actions you are making is the key because this is where you would really be able to have that kind of moderation on which you would really be acting out accordingly basing into the condition that you are currently experiencing. Dont let yourself comes into a point on getting that addicted because it would never be simple on trying to heal that addiction.
Recovery could neither be that done via ones control and awareness and if you do fail then you would really be needing some external help from loved ones or even professionals.

Dont make yourself put up into such condition because the only main key on here for you not to be addicted is on the time that you would really be having that kind of control
and moderation towards self on which this is something that not anyone could really be having.

[Sandra_hakeem]

That's the last condition I'll let myself into.

The other video that I saw that he was not even present with the delivery of his first and second kid, he was done gambling and trying to make money for the hospital bills but it turns out that he losses in both time.

C'monnnn.... This is also his fault. Never try to depend on some unexpected funds for survival; didn't he develop some thoughts about it? Atleast he'd been making money from other sources before now, why didn't he pick that back up?
if I were a man, I wouldn't dare to pick any girl for cohabitation, talkmore of getting her impregnated... Sheees, get a life first!! It's even worse when the girl doesn't have anything to do too.

It's like the psychology of gambling itself, it's been part of us and it's really hard to get away from it. And every day we see more gamblers started their journey because it is more accessible more than ever with internet and online gambling.

So it's vicious cycle, someone might recovered and share his stories like this, and then somewhere in the opposite side of the globe, a new individual is slowly turning into a addict and ruining his life and hopefully he can go back to his sense before everything crumbles in his face.

Once one Starts playing gambling, it is always difficult to quit because you may have ran into too many losses and trying to recover your lost before you quit thereby running into further losses or you might win and feel that it's a free money and with the mindset that when you try continuously you can win more money and in the quest you still lose more.

I have said it often times that gambling isn't that too bad as some people do say about it but it is through the way some gamblers do play it that makes it appear bad. You can still be playing gambling and going about your normal businesses without being affected but the worst that can happen to any body is being too addicted such that you develop most of your time playing gambling and discard other life obligations you should have been involved in.

Basically, as some people are testifying of how gambling helped them in life that's how some other people are also feeling so bad that they have lost so much to gambling but anyone who follows gambling with caution of not allowing oneself to get into addiction, then definitely you ain't gonna have any challenge while gambling.

[Onyeeze]

The thing is that some persons are actually bound to be addicted to gambling no matter what so it just depends on how you decide to go with your gambling habit because i believe everyone knows what and what isn't good and what is good when we gamble but still yet some person decide to go the extra miles to actually monetize their account or habit. Gambling can wreck only if you decide to go the wrong way with it and believe me it's really hard to get out from it when fully involved.

Reason why some people is addicted in gambling is because there are not financial buoyant and they feel like it is only gambling that they will make money so that is why many people who is addicted in gambling always gamble so that they can be able to earn a living through it why the more their gambling the more they are losing and the more they are spending their money so it is good for me to calculate the total amount of money we will spend in gambling weekly or monthly so that we will not experience much logs in gambling, day today people who does not have a work take gambling as occupation and the source of revenue that is why they addicted gambling member Desire than people who is not addicted in gambling

Once we involved with gambling, we must try to learn about self-control to prevent something bad that can happens. We will not know when the tempting comes so with learning the self-control, we will aware every time we playing gambling. We will know what we needs to do related to playing gambling and we can use everything we needs to avoid big lose and losing self-control. Many people already face this experienced but only some people who can survive and can enjoy playing gambling as the entertainment because they can know what they needs to do. We must stay away from the addiction by always used anything necessary and we also limits our gambling activity so we can stop playing gambling before the money runs out.

Having self-control is a must thing that every gamblers have to prevent the addiction and not tempted to playing the other gambling games. We must used gambling as an entertainment and with moderation to avoid the sign of addiction. If we can do that, we can playing gambling in our spare time and we can enjoy gambling as it was.

Gambling's self-control emphasis might be deceiving. Responsible gaming is crucial, but the chances are against the player. Suggesting that self-control is enough to succeed in this environment oversimplifies addiction psychology and the carefully established processes

Disaster prevention shouldn't be the only priority. Remember that the industry is built on long-term house advantages. Many 'winning' cases are due to luck rather than strategy.  By definition, luck is unpredictable and transitory

Promoting gambling for fun minimises the dangers. Immersive surroundings and near-miss mechanics are designed to keep players playing. This makes it harder to be casual over time

Many people are attracted to gambling by adrenaline and the opportunity to earn big money quickly. But it is important to remember that playing for money can become a habit and lead to ludomania.

In order not to become a ludomaniac, it is important to set time and money limits for yourself, not to play under the influence of alcohol or emotions, and not to try to "recoup" after losing. It is important to play responsibly and remember that gambling is entertainment, not a way to earn money.

Sometimes greed is what make them to become addicted to gamble. This is because they are not satisfied with their little win, amd they want to win big. In the process of trying to win big, they stake with big amount of money that they cannot afford to lose, and it becomes a problem for them, because they will allow their emotions to control them, and they will start chasing their loss.

You should not see gamble as a business that you want to use to double your money like the person in the story, because doubling your money becomes the opposite, if you lack self control, your gambling activities will affect your family and people around you, because you will be less concerned about what is happening in your household, but only gambling and chasing losses is what you will always think about due to addiction.

actually it's true. And also it's easy to become addicted to gamble mostly when you don't have a side hustle that will be taking much of your time, for a jobless person that thinks gamble can make him/her become rich it's fat lie. Gamble is not a means of making quick money, incase a gambler is doing it he will likely get addicted at the end.

I agree with that.
Let's keep in mind that gambling is just for entertainment, to kill time, to spice the game up if it's about sports, to make life exciting, or to boost our emotions but not on the bad part like the stress of losing a lot of money.
Because once we cross the line on those things it becomes a different story. There are gamblers who would take the bad emotions and throw them to their family. Getting angry from a simple mistake because he is on losses in gambling. Being irresponsible with the house expenses. Not giving time for the people important to him/her. And more.
I think it's better to just be an occasional gambler, it can be done with sports since there's no sport that runs the whole day. It's always per event or once or twice per day. That way we will still have lots of time for our family or we could just analyze the next game in our spare time.

Leisure and entertainment on which these are the things that you should emphasis on the time that you do consider on doing gambling and not to make money out of it. It all matters into your own perspective on what it is because if you do make yourself having those kind of delusional approach towards it on something that do talks about making huge money with it then this is where people do usually mess up their lives just because
they do set out those things which arent supposed to be on that way. Just like on what most people been saying on here is that on the time that you would be having those kind of approach on where you do gamble
for making money then instead on making yourself that enjoying on what you are doing but rather it would really be something that stressful on your part.

Tons of gambling stories that we've seen and even there are people who do end up on having suicide just because they cant be able to resolved out their gambling addiction problems
on which it did really resulted into deep debt on which this is a problem that wont really be that so simple to be resolved out.

           -   So it's really good to gamble just for fun or to pass the time. And don't let a gambling addiction develop because it's a big headache in the end. And it is worrying that because of the huge amount, for sure, that was lost to the gambler, he could no longer bear the weight that he felt that it reached to the point that he could no longer control himself, and he was probably still under a lot of pressure that can actually lead to a suicidal scenario.

So, as much as possible, we should not allow ourselves to become addicted to gambling because it is very difficult to recover from being addicted to gambling.

[reagansimms]

I advise everyone to see this video, I'm not related to this person, but I can relate to his stories and the gambling addiction that most of us could have been suffering for years. This is the second video that I have been watching and they say the same things. Not just money they lose, but time and relationship. The other video that I saw that he was not even present with the delivery of his first and second kid, he was done gambling and trying to make money for the hospital bills but it turns out that he losses in both time.

Perhaps you have seen other videos as well and maybe share it here.

That is the reason you must always use common sense when gambling, gambling games are designed to trigger brain reactions that cause addiction, if you cannot control yourself when gambling, it will result in addiction which can have a bad impact on the gambler himself. One of the attractions of gambling that causes someone to become addicted is the "uncertainty" in the form of a jackpot or the probability of winning. This desire to win big is very similar to what happens to people who suffer from drug addiction which can make them hypersensitive. The effect of wanting to chase losses with the thought of being close to winning can also trigger a brain response to a win that is close to coming, this feeling can increase the gambler's desire to play more by increasing bets at a greater level.

Problem gamblers must learn from the experiences in the video in order to become responsible gamblers to achieve solutions to life's problems.

Having the right mindset about gambling will help us not to become addicted because addiction often occurs in people who are wrong in thinking about gambling, such as thinking that gambling is a way to get money quickly so that they do many ways to be able to fund their gambling so that they forget the facts about the losses experienced.

With the right mindset, gamblers can gamble according to their limits, gamble with a predetermined budget, gamble when they are free time, not when working or other important activities, and gamble with full responsibility, can accept defeat without trying to recover losses and also when they win, withdraw some money to be able to enjoy it and don't forget to stop for a vacation so that the mind is not always dominated by gambling.

So, as much as possible, we should not allow ourselves to become addicted to gambling because it is very difficult to recover from being addicted to gambling.

I consider it to be the most sensible thing to do , I think that addiction will never be a good indication that things are going well for Anyone, this is something we can always Generate when we are on the road, if I have a lot of money I can't have all that money, but sometimes we decide we are going to post a little more to see what happens, those types of Thoughts must be eliminated, something similar has happened to all of us and that can be a very bad Indication that we are acting wrong , so we must correct that way of thinking.

The casino was made to win Money and have fun , but also to lose because the casino also needs to win, so not every time you lose and seeing it that way the probabilities of Winning for us as players are always lower and this means that we have more Awareness.

Gamble is not a means of making quick money, incase a gambler is doing it he will likely get addicted at the end.

Everything is correct. but the most fatal thing is that they cannot control themselves when gambling, and do not manage their finances well because it is not only those who are unemployed and do not have a side job who become addicted, rich people can also become addicted if they do not have good control.

Because gambling will always be addictive, and makes gamblers make lots of excuses to themselves and others. Another reason gamblers become addicted is because in their minds they already imagine getting rich quickly, in other words, gambling can make money easily. So it is not surprising that people who are addicted to gambling will become lazy and have no other motivation apart from gambling.

I don't why some people find it difficult to comprehend that gambling doesn't bring wealth, rather it will drain your savings and cause you to lose your family. Even after being aware of this, people are still found to be hooked on gambling(what a sad world we live in)

I think you have no experience of winning or you don't have anyone whom you know personally about their winnings and that's why you can't understand the reason for gambling. Another important thing is that people gambling not only to earn money but also for mental refreshment addiction and so on.
