The burning pains of addiction

[GeorgeJohn]

I've read a lot of stories like this. When someone is severely addicted, this is a completely natural development. I had to pay back a bank loan I lost at the casino for many years. At the time, the amount was significant. I still can't understand how I got myself into all that. I almost ended up selling off my valuables. I came to my senses just in time. The desire to win it back was overwhelming. That's why I got completely caught up in gambling.

Not a few people are trapped by their own thoughts or obsession with their winnings at gambling, just like you who even take out loans from other people or the bank just to gamble and hope to win a big win to compensate for all the losses you have experienced and that becomes a motivation to gamble continuously, until you realize that the winnings you have to get are not always on the same day, or when you have money to gamble you finally realize that what you have lost should not be pursued.

the thing is that we need to have a strategies in gambling because if you don't apply strategies I don't think that you'll be able to make a good gambling measure, the issues we are having today is lack of strategies and the plans in the gambling when will have a good strategies to participate we are not going to regret participating in gambling so having a budget for gambling is one of the basic things we are supposed to do with that I don't think that we will be inquisitive to pursue our losses

From a clear observation and empirical facts why do people addiction to gambling, drug and other toxic substances always used money meant for house rent, feedings and other pressing things for their desires. Most a times they give their assets and family assets out as collateral just to satisfy their desires and fantasies.

in an interview from a popular broadcaster, a man talked about how he lost his wife and children due to the influenced of gambling. According to him, he was doing very well with his family when his friend came and introduced him into gambling. on the process of gambling he started emptying his accounts, at a point he sold all his cars and assets just to hit a jackpot but to no avail of all his efforts. his wife had been warming him but he was deep into gambling, so when she could not bear the pains of going back to suffering she decided to take their kids with her and went away.

We are talking about the extreme ends of addiction here and one that most people who gamble will never reach, because when you start spending money reserved for other purposes you've gone beyond the edges of normal behavior. When you've done that, you have prioritized your actual needs to survive in the real world lower than a bit of short term excitement you might get out of betting, oftentimes putting other loved ones needs below your own entertainment. Thank goodness this is a relatively rare situation and most people do not engage in this, because reality dictates their life. You cannot justify these actions because they were never reasoned into this, they just did it instinctively without thinking because gambling had become such a routine to them that they wanted to prolong at any cost.

that thing called addiction can just make even people with high level of intelliegence act very abnormal because that urge can be as strong as the taste that can only be quench by water, and clearly when the urge surfaces! it becomes way stronger than even the application of common sense because an addicted individuel will feel mentally that if he does not do what his or her mind is hell bent of doing then they will feel very restless and emotionally exhusted, that is why in so many cases you will see very mature people gambling with their very important and necessary belongings they need to survive or even go as far as selling some properties just to get some money to satisfy their urge of gambling, so they just want to by every effort satisfy that desire and all sense of logi dissappears from their mind.

This is also the reason why I usually laugh when I see some people giving their thoughts on how they think addicts can overcome addiction and the first thing that comes out is “try to stay away from gambling for few weeks” why do you mean few weeks? If they could stay away that long then it means that they are not addicted. When you see an addict you’ll know that it take strong will power for them to even go two days without gambling, a day feels like hell for them and you’re coming out as an expert and saying they should “try” and stay away for “weeks”.

A lot of people have only seen the regular use stage of addiction and they think they know what addition means. When they finally get to see someone who has gotten to the “dependence” stage that’s when you’ll realize that addicts are going through hell constantly if they are not doing that thing that they are addicted to. Addiction is one thing I’ll always pray against because that shit ruins life, from a normal life you could become ruined just by getting addicted to something bad.

What do budgets and strategies have to do with it? Are there really ways to win consistently? I've never been able to find one. It's all nonsense and a big misconception. The casino will never let you lose money. If someone starts doing well, the admins will immediately react. I know this from experience. There was a time when one slot was consistently profitable throughout the day, but after a few hours the bug was fixed and everything stopped.

There is nothing new to this. Addiction is when you begin to be beclouded with what you are doing thinking it is better for you against the general believe of people around you. Or it is a state where you are convinced on yourself to be doing the right thing but it is wrong evidentially. Evidentially because the result of what you are doing is negative on you and unfavourable.

I have also known of someone always with high hopes to win big, he gives assurances to people that he goes to borrow money for gambling from, telling them how he would double the percentage of what he was borrowing from them the next week when the results are out but he ran into much debt and some of his properties were seized and claimed by those he borrowed money from. So that is gambling addiction for you. It is very dangerous when you begin to gamble uncontrollably and against what you can afford to lose, that is how addiction gradually starts

I never knew people are this power drunk with gambling to the extent they lose their family in the process. Is that worse that people don't know when to call a spade a spade. Why doesn't people ask important questions like who on earth that is rich today that makes money from gambling, all richest people on Forbes list didn't make their money from gambling, it's from hard work but it's a pity that some people want to make money from gambling and leave that life they have always dream.

We don't really need to blame casino for somethings that happen, I think human beings are greedy and are very abusive when they see something that will give them opportunity to make money. If your gambling behavior can cost your life and that of your family then you not only need to be block from gambling, you should never touch any gambling site again because this is giving a bad representation of gambling to the government and to people that doesn't gamble.

How insensitive can some people get. It is these kind of things that would make some people end up calling superstitious.  The African man will say it is manipulations by powers that'll make you use all your properties for a gamble and loose them. But the real truth us that's all big lie. You engaged yourself in the act. You didn't even stop when you saw that you are really making a loss and also loosing your properties.  For me it is purely insensitivity that would make any individual to get to that extent of gambling.  And for the wifevthat left him she did the best thing.  Maybe that would teach him the lesson that he needs to change for the better.

This is not surprising because they are still trapped in their own delusions and do not want to admit their previous mistakes so they will say some nonsense as much as possible so that their gambling is not fully blamed on themselves which if we examine it further it just shows the ridiculousness that they have.

We often see things like this where the addicts always say that they were cheated by the site, framed by a partner in the game or even as you said with those who are affected by the superstition they believe in. However this condition is clearly unfounded because the fact that they gamble themselves, they lose and they cannot control themselves is all purely due to the negligence of the gambler not the other party.

Most a times they give their assets and family assets out as collateral just to satisfy their desires and fantasies.

Medically, every individual who is addicted to anything, be it drugs, online gambling, offline gambling and so on, 80% of their brain nerves are damaged and not controlled in a healthy way and if it is supernatural It could be said that 80% of the addict's brain has been washed by the devil, meaning that all the thoughts and activities carried out by the devil who control it are 20% more than the addict's own normal brain.

So, don't be surprised if you see someone who is addicted to gambling and wants to do anything and sacrifice property that doesn't belong to him or worse, his wife becomes collateral for betting, the reason is as I said above.

The solution is that addicts are exiled to another world, put in stocks or sunk to the bottom of the sea.

There's absolutely no way to consistently win in gambling without recording some losses at some point, you will definitely get to a point where you will eventually loose some money resulting from gambling, strategies and even skill will not at any point guarantee that you will not loose in gambling and mostly just keep wining. the admins have to react whenever they are recording consistent wins in a row because for the casino, that is a huge loss going on on their own side, if it persist and other get to know and they all play, it will get to a point the casino may even go bankrupt, so the wins and the losses does creates the balance for both sides.

Those who are addicted to gambling will not be aware of what happens. They can use money for rent, food, and other pressing needs for gambling. They don't care about their needs and family. If their family does not realize, it can ruin their lives and deep into gambling.

Many people suffer because of gambling addiction and hope that it is just a dream. But when they take a look around, they see that they don't have anything left even their family leaves them. They only think shortly and in the end, they may commit suicide.

[Kasabus]

Perhaps it is pretty clear to us that addiction gives us nothing good but disaster and financial collapse.
Responsible gambling should be at the top of our minds, and we don't need to wait to fall into addiction before we take action, because it is hard to recover once we're there.

So before we gamble, we must set our realistic goal. Aiming to win is good, but chasing it should never be. Align our minds to think that gambling is for entertainment, not for making money. We don't blame casinos for our losses, or even blame ourselves. Just accept the fact that luck never comes as we want it to be.

[Leahized]

This is one of the consequences of gambling addiction. The friend is not to be blame here , it is lack of self discipline that resulted to this. People should always learn how to control their appetite for more money. The wife decision may be the best thing at least he will learn the hard way. There are risk that isn't worth taking and it will be unwise to sell ones valuable just because of gambling. The man was motivated by greed and not because of his friends not being contempted with what we have can leads to this.

Yes it is true that now it is not right to blame his friend but once it was his friend who advised him to choose this path. That is why he should have been advised to refrain from excessive greed. Because he didn't have much experience in the beginning. That's why his wife's advice was very good but unfortunately his gambling addiction led to such a bad situation. So I think his wife alone can be enough to handle him in this bad situation. We all know that one should not spend too much money on gambling. Because no one can win too much. As he has lost all his valuables,So it is best to keep yourself under control at this time. Only then can this situation be overcome.

Simple because they care less of anything else besides getting a quick fix if it's drugs , and for gambling it's the dopamine that's controlling them, the pleasure that makes people irrational such that a person not involved in this kind of lifestyle cannot understand

But then again, thinking about this I would say it's a lifestyle disorder and probably today's technology has made things worse...

You should use what kind of good strategy, because maybe we can have different versions in determining it for the gambling that me and you do, it would be interesting if you say it here and become tips for people who read it, your reference is very good it seems, you are able to gamble well and can be responsible for your own bets, it's just that some people need to see and read how you do it so that we can do it, and addiction is no longer our problem here.

Transparency and responsibility are very important. There is no strategy in gambling, just know your limitations and limit your activities, then there will be no more problems. Strategy is only a matter of gamblers' imagination, there is no strategy in gambling, no one can ever win for sure through any specific strategy or pattern. So whether it is loss or win, you have to bear everything, so you have to be ready to make decisions to accept these losses. Maintaining control over yourself is the real victory, remember that winning money is not the only victory.

Look good and also thank you for sharing this information, i am not referring to you but in general to anyone who shares information on how he plays and what he plays
Always remember that it's just fun.
Don't invest too much money, have fun and if you can do it in real life and not online

Here comes the biggest challenging thing, maintaining control is not easy, it is not possible for everyone, for those whose mentality is set up wrongly, like gambling for entertainment but they try to earn money, it is definitely not easy for them to maintain the limits of their ability. They will lose control, it is inevitable for them and they will face big losses. Everything is designed in such a way that even very controlled people can lose their control here, this is a very difficult area which is not possible for everyone to control.

Gambling seems to control them because of the dopamine rush. It is true that people get addicted but it is also true that people can stop this vicious cycle if they wish to.

Lifestyle becomes twisted for many people and that leads to a lot of problems that we currently see.

If we change our own choices we can save money and our own health. Spending habits and gambling habits should be kept in limits and then its good.

Sometimes this can be a good thing but on the other hand it can also be ineffective because in gambling we not only focus on strategy and limits but also emotions.
When someone has a good plan in terms of gambling limits and strategies on how they bet (use their money for betting) but does not have a really strong emotional control then they can get out of control which makes the strategy and gambling scheme that has been considered correct useless.

Nowadays, this kind of condition happens to some people, maybe even to those who consider themselves as gambling geniuses because they have a good strategy in gambling that is carried out trapped in the game they created themselves which in the end this ends badly.
Gambling is a situation that is actually difficult to do but sometimes most of us take it too lightly as if it is nothing.

Self-control is formed by habits that you apply to yourself so that your mind is more dominant than emotions, that is what can control your emotions and we can call it self-control, so like it or not someone has to build it themselves, such as building a personality that is slowly shaped to become better, including character and attitudes towards gambling, because the problem is addiction which comes from habits that depend on dopamine for winning at gambling, which at first can't help but be restrained, excessively curious and so on, which makes emotions and ambitions uncontrolled within you, so really understand where the source comes from. It's an addiction problem so that you can handle it well.
