When another addiction fuels gambling addiction.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Always making sure this is brief as possible.

From my observation on addiction, i get to see how addiction is like a chain. Individuals moving from one addiction to another and how several addictions or one addiction can give birth/rise to the gambling addiction. We can all agree as an individual there are several things in life we can be addicted to aside gambling.

Substances like like alcohol or stimulants addiction (drinking), Nicotine dopamine and weed addiction (smoking), to mention a few others can influence a responsible gambler into becoming addicted. There are people in the society who gamble to humanize, smoke or drink, or go out on expensive rides and stuffs.

When it becomes difficult for someone is addicted to gambling to quit. I think its not just about quitting gambling he has to do, if he as any other thing he is addicted to he should first quit on those ones because quitting those ones might make him lose interest automatically in gambling.

For some addicted gambler, they were actually responsible gambler but due to one thing or another, they allowed themselves get addicted, it could be that they were too addicted to living a particular lifestyle that is pressuring them to get quick money from gambling so that they can be able to satisfy that other lifestyle that they are also addicted to. Like the example you gave, some gamblers are addicted to alcohol or weed, drugs, or something else and for them to get money to feed on those things, they need to raise money through gambling.

If you are addicted to drinking or smoking, regardless if you stop gambling or not, you will certainly find ways on how to continue drinking and smoking because you get used to it already. But if you instill discipline and self-control towards your vices, until you slowly get rid of them, even if you are still into gambling, then gambling alone will not be capable anymore to fuel another addiction.

There is a proverb in English that says that bad habits beget bad habits. If someone is addicted to gambling, he will automatically get addicted to worse addictions, especially to manage gambling money, he will commit crimes like theft, robbery, kidnapping. He will eventually become addicted to drugs. If someone develops a bad habit, they will inevitably develop more than one bad habit, and the fuel from one bad habit will flow into another.

I will agree with you that it is true that one type of addiction invites another type of addiction.
I personally know some people who started their gambling well but later they gradually became addicted to gambling and they lost their huge funds there and till now they have not been able to complete the debt of that money.

And because of this debt, I've seen them go from cigarette smoking to weed smoking and drinking alcohol, and they're still doing it regularly. I mean, they're in the first stage of addiction, so it really makes sense that one addiction could fuel another addiction.

Gambling addiction is not something that would be neglected because it is just like a night mare which need proper consideration.
Gambling addiction is more worse when the gambler is already addicted to some bad habits like smoking, humanizing, drinking and others. This behavior have much influence in making a gambler become addictive to gambling activities.
The goal might be to make money but gradually things might keep becoming unbearable which could keep the fuel more addiction.

I don't think when someone quits any of the addictions they find themselves with, it will make them lose interest in gambling automatically.

That's not possible because each addiction we are addicted to has its own means of stopping. You can't stop addiction to something else and expect the other addiction you have in your blood system to stop without following its due process.

You must learn how to follow each addiction according to the way you were told on how to stop them if you want any positive results with your involvement with each of them

You are absolutely correct that is the real truth about it, because there is no how someone would quits other things that they are addicted to and decide to lose interest in gambling. Allex if the person just decide to quit gambling as well if not I don't really think is that possible to leave everything just like that. Because just like as you mentioned I think every addiction have their own way of quitting them one by one, because though is not one day that you got addicted to them it most surely be a do process.

Being addicted to alcohol does not mean that he is also addicted to gambling because there are some people who drink alcohol but are not interested in gambling and vice versa, so if there are people who are addicted to alcohol and then gamble, it does not mean that the person will stop gambling when they stop drinking alcohol, because in my opinion, gambling addiction is not caused by drinking alcohol or smoking marijuana, but most people gamble purely from ourselves who want to get pleasure from gambling.

It is indeed not easy to eliminate addiction to several activities simultaneously, everything takes a process, but it depends on each person's personality. If someone is addicted to alcohol, drugs and gambling, of course it cannot be eliminated simultaneously, this is always related. Usually addicts will rack their brains on how to get money quickly, and of course gambling is their main target to get money quickly. The solution can only be done by avoiding one of these addictions so that slowly these activities can be abandoned one by one

You’re not wrong with your analysis however there’s a lot of proof in the last that is a very bad partner to gambling since it always result to reckless betting due to the influence of alcohol in our mind.

Even pro player that has high PnL on Blackjack like Dana White becomes a victim of this mix when he lose millions while he thought he is just playing small amount when he is drunk.

This is why people shouldn’t gamble when he still battling different addiction because it usually leads to reckless bets.

[traderethereum]

There is indeed when someone addicted, he will difficult to quit of what he did before. He think that he can not quit the activities because he don't have other activities to fill his free time. That is why when someone addicted to gambling, he just attract the risk become big especially if he doesn't have other people who can remind him that he is break his limit.

He must have a big effort to realize that he is addicted and want to solve that problem. He can tell to other people around him and ask for the suggestion how he can cure the addiction. If he find the right people, he can get the answer how he can solve his addiction. But if he doesn't get it, that may make him deeper in that addiction without have a chance to stop.

[mak013]

I think that the Op talking about single situations. All people differs and someone can has lots of kinds of addictions without gambling, the other one can be only gambling addict. We can see that all kinds of addiction has common results, but it doesn`t mean that if someone has one addiction, he easily gets another one.

[DiMarxist]

If two addiction is connected it should be money and the other. Some people are addicted to sex and it can never be connected to gambling. But once a gambler got money, and probably he made all the possible way to get that money as an addicted gambler he would used a good percentage in gambling before another thing.
Addiction is the perpetual likeness or loving to do the thing at all time. People are addicted to smoking, drinking and others and all consume money. Addiction never brings money and always takes money.

There are many types of addiction, gambling is one of them, but i agreed with you, if someone addicted in smoking there was no connection with gambling, on the other hand gambling addiction isn’t connected with alcohol addiction, so if anyone stop one habit that means other one will be stop automatically, that's not like that but gambling addiction is most dangerous, that can destroy a man or a family by financially.

it is very easy to fall for greed and allure of money once a gambler starts winning and he gets a taste of winning and what it is like to get some money and live a luxurious lifestyle he will start putting all his money into gambling

what once was only a hobby and something to pass time with has become something that can be harmful and out of control

[Akbarkoe]

Ridiculous, this is not clearly based on why someone would have a gambling addiction when he has other addictions, like someone addicted to watching adult movies then he will easily get addicted to gambling? of course not, I think it all depends on what makes his dopamine increase in his mind, when someone's dopamine increases because of playing online games so he is easy to get addicted there but not necessarily if he plays games in gambling will get the same thing and get addicted. LOL

You know, I get your point that when it comes to addiction, there are many categories that we can have, just like the ones you mentioned, like smoking, drinking and so on. Now, when it comes to quitting, I don't think I've ever seen anyone who quit drinking immediately quit smoking.

It still depends on the individual who has an addiction, either more than one, the addiction they have, I'm pretty sure that they won't be able to let go of it all at once,
because when they have an addiction, they didn't get it in just one day like some of our friends here are saying.

Well for me this is not how i see it honestly cause addictions differs and so is it's results, you can tend to be addicted to gambling and as well smoking but I don't think being addicted to one of the addiction can actually fuel into another addiction. The point is so many are addicted to alot of things but finds it hard to stop cause when they stop one it pushes them to keep going with the other addictions, I don't know if you get me.

[Churchillvv]

There is a psychology used by psychiatrist to treat addiction and this theory is to make is to make someone who is addicted to some bad habits like gambling to get addicted to doing something productive so even if one stops a particular addiction there is no specific connection or relationship that they would stop the other habits or addiction.

Since the process of resolving some kind of addiction differs from each other one might find it difficult to leave a particular addiction because they stopped another it's just a norm.

[viljy]

Everything is exactly the opposite. One addiction does not entail another addiction, but one addiction can replace another addiction. For example, there are drug addiction treatment methods based on this. However, the effectiveness of this method is quite controversial.

In practice, if a person is addicted to gambling, alcohol, cigarettes, which is very common, then perhaps only two things can get rid of his addictions. These are serious health problems or lack of money. Moreover, both are an inevitable consequence of gambling addiction and bad habits.

Addiction of alcohol, cigarettes and any other hard substances are of live threatening addictions and the only remedy to easily stops this are whether visit the hospital and doctor gives them condition that they either have few months to live if they don't quit them, you would see them easily quit it without any further hesitations. But this same approach can't be applied to whom that is gambling addiction and of course that wouldn't for any fuel gambling addictions rather when there is need for urgency they would quit taking those hard substances because it involves life/death.

Surprisingly, there are exceptions. We have a famous TV presenter here in the country who was once popular. He is already 80 years old, he was recently taken to the hospital urgently, doctors demanded that he give up smoking. But the old man categorically rejected this demand and said that he smoked and would smoke despite the threat to his life. It was on the news.

By the way, my father smoked to death despite lung cancer, and in total he smoked in his life for probably 65 years. I quit smoking myself only on the second attempt. Former smokers have dreams about how they smoke decades after they quit smoking. So gambling addiction is really just a trifle compared to nicotine.

Rightly said gambling addiction is worse because gambling addiction has the biggest impact on the family. When a man or any member starts spending all his time energy and money on gambling then the relationships in the family also start deteriorating. Mistrust frustration and unrest in the relationship increase which can lead to divorce family chaos or mental health problems.

People who gamble with the aim of getting profit in gambling will feel a stronger attraction to continue gambling again and again, when they succeed in getting a win then here it is like there is a point of hope that will make them able to get a bigger win, unfortunately this leads them to gambling addiction only which leads them to find it difficult to stop gambling if there is no win that can make them quiet. But I myself do not think that when we are addicted to smoking then it has the potential to make us addicted to gambling or others, because this addictive mindset only focuses on one thing and when addicted tends to be the thing that will be prioritized is what makes him addicted.
