What are the reasons for addictions

[GIF-JOBS]

Well, that's how it is. And even though we do it for fun, there is always a desire in our minds to become rich by getting a big fortune and a big win that will allow us to immediately achieve a significant increase in wealth. But in the end, we must also realize that becoming rich requires more than just luck. It also requires hard work and high discipline in everything. By doing so, we may avoid addiction because we realize that even though we have the same desires as others who may even become addicted, we know how to set limits.

Another reason for gambling addiction, can be greed, wanting to get everything all at once. You’re right that discipline helps us achieve good and stable results in many things we do. But greed can destroy all of that. Because if we get lucky in gambling and start believing that betting more means we can win more, it’s easy to fall into a trap where we bet more, and lose much more than we won. So greed can be one of the reasons.

As long as we are disciplined, everything will be under our control, discipline limits and patience always bring stability, but once this stability is lost, everything goes out of control, and when it goes out of control, it starts to hurt. There is no strategy in gambling and there are no guarantees, so we cannot expect anything big here, it would not be reasonable and realistic in any way, but even then when we lose our discipline by expecting big wins, once greed sets in, people no longer play for entertainment, but they make it a part of their daily activities and always stick to it, But in the end it just losing them.

Over confidence and reasoning beyond the purpose to which gambling is made, where most gambler has taken the system as job due to their jobless nature. I think it's perceptional issue and also seen the system as quick to get rich. Greedy also act as catalyst to addiction in gambling because down the line most addicted gambler is having some sign or symptom of greed.

 Many people think gambling is an easy way to make money, Some even treat it like a job. but this is a wrong way of thinking, Gambling is not a job, It is only for fun... Too much confidence and greed push people in the wrong direction, Slowly that greed turns into addiction, Most of the time people do not even notice when they lose control, That is why it is important to think clearly from the start, Gambling should never be seen as a way to earn money..

Yes I completely agree with your point. But the first step of gambling addiction is to start gambling. When a person first starts playing, he is very scared, once they start playing it, all the fear is gone from them. So a person should never gamble.

But yes, there are many who are able to control themselves. They gamble by keeping themselves in control and do not consider gambling as an addiction. It seems that there are very few such people. Because all the gamblers I know are addicted to gambling.

When you misunderstand the purpose of gambling, you will do it the wrong way. Don't go into gambling because of poverty, you will definitely feel gambling is a way to make a fortune for yourself. Majority of new gamblers didn't start gambling for fun or for entertainment but because they wanted to make money from gambling. This is why you see a lot of addicted gamblers here and there.

Gambling for the sake of winning a fortune.

Using gambling to console yourself from the ugly situation you're passing through instead, of finding a real solution to solve the problem.

Chasing your losses because you are too greedy to let it go.

The list you have itemised is undoubtedly amongst the reasons why people get addicted to gambling. But situations as these can be easily controlled when one is disciplined and has self-control in them. However, it takes a strong-willed heart to be able to stand by their principles to do away with the pressure of gambling at every given time, to be free from addiction, irrespective of the nature of the game they play.

sometimes those ones that is addicted in gambling don't actually know when they are addicted so I believe that in gambling everyone need to have a determination and self control because once you have been determined on something totally control your emotions, another thing that are not used that to make people to be addicted in gambling is when they don't have a gambling strategic plans, once you have a gambling strategic plans you will do whatever thing you will feel to do without looking forward to anyone so I believe but every gambler need to have a gambling strategic plans in order to scale through of been addicted

First and foremost, setting your gambling boundaries is very important, because that would keep you in check in knowing your limit and not exceeding your budget as per what you have planned. It is not enough to be strategic, but having discipline is a core value or fundamental in knowing your gambling limit, because that would help you to be disciplined, and also make you gamble responsibly.

Setting our limits and keeping to them are two different things which we all need to practise. It starts with knowing ourselves and learning about how well we should control our habits, but some people actually don't pay attention to the time limit after they have set an amount in their budget, and that time is also very important in terms of maintaining a responsible gambling habit.

I want to know how people easily get addicted to gambling.

Do you believe gambling addiction easily comes when someone takes gambling as their source of income?

Or

Do you believe is a result of consistent gambling, like trying to shy away some responsibilities at home or what?

Please I am trying to know the major things that causes gambling addiction, and why is the rate of addiction becoming that increasing on a regular basis.

I think addiction comes by creating the 100th thread on the subject.

Addiction comes By repeating the same 100 time's, and still finding your way to keep repeating it, such as this thread yahoo62278 got the right title for this thread. Sometimes I still can't imagine what else most members here have to talk about the topic of addictions that have not been said countless times before creating repeated comments on same topic just to meet up with requirements make no sense.

Sometimes we read the same things that are just put in different forms and context but at the end of the day it all boils down to addiction and not anything that's really new to learn..well, I guess it is because gambling addiction is a big problem and a lot of people need help fixing it, perhaps talking about it more can allow those that are affected to interact, read and ask questions if necessary

But generally, the number of gamblers, and those who gamble regularly, is high in poor countries. Everyone gambles because of poverty; people in this country may know it's wrong, but they're addicted. They start gambling to earn money and save their lives, and I'm sure they later long for their old lives and can't escape it.

Because addicts calculate that they have a new chance every time, that this time it will work. If they really calculated it that way, they would actually stay away and just turn it into fun

Time factor is also a good consideration because that is what most gamblers over look in the course of their gambling exercise. Time factor is another thing that could control excess gambling lifestyle because when you set your gambling time it would guide your stay in the casino and also whether you have gambled all you budget or not, winning or not, when it gets to that exact time, you will be conscious of yourself and leave the place because you are already aware it's game over for you. This would help put your gambling lifestyle in check.

Its not yet towards in immediate addiction instead it will go through first at the curiosity which is people wondering how they will earn a fast phase money, and get entertain which is gambling could bring, others giving a shot and try and once they enjoy its part of their routine so by that fun gives them a satisfaction its hard to remove we know that the gambling always gives the boost of happy emotions when you are playing because your eyes are seeing a lot of animations and rewards, now it will become addiction if you cant remove it anymore. Its bonded to you. You are always seeking fun and entertainment bring with the gambling. You wanted to play even though you saw the potential you would lose the game. The number of games increases when you play the deeper you are into the entertainment of gambling addiction.

But greed can destroy all of that. Because if we get lucky in gambling and start believing that betting more means we can win more, it’s easy to fall into a trap where we bet more, and lose much more than we won. So greed can be one of the reasons.

As long as we are disciplined, everything will be under our control, discipline limits and patience always bring stability, but once this stability is lost, everything goes out of control, and when it goes out of control, it starts to hurt.

To maintain discipline in gambling, you need to have patience and control your emotions, only then will you be in a stable state of mind and you will make the right decisions when making decisions. To maintain a stable state of mind in gambling, you need to refrain from excessive gambling and allocate money within your means.

Since there is no specific strategy for winning in gambling, no skilled gambler can be confident of winning and they cannot increase their winnings by any strategy. Skill only allows you to take effective steps to make good decisions. The urge to win in gambling comes to you at a time when you are greedy. You can gamble in your daily activities but you have to maintain boundaries regarding funds. The attitude and habit of exceeding the fund limit will make you an addicted gambler and gambling will not be under your control at that time.

Curiosity feeds on misinformation, leading them to believe gambling is a way to make money quickly. This is where high expectations emerge, ultimately leading to addiction.

Interestingly, some addicts are financially unhealthy. This serves as confirmation that they truly hope gambling will change their lives. They come with a small amount of money, hoping to win big. They are willing to risk it all to pursue their hopes, which ultimately leads them to addiction.

Family pressure is number One, a man that have a family he's unable to cater for will be easily be addicted to gambling, he see gambling as a means to settle his family challenges. The more he tries more he loses, and when he has no where to borrow or job he can use to provide for his family,he believes only in gambling. That's pure addiction.

Secondly,  lovers of quick money syndrome, people that don't believe in hard work, they only want to win hug sum in gambling to sort out themselves, they spend days on gambling to escape poverty. They're easily to be addicted too, they fail to understand that the more time they spend on gambling more they are addicted to it. At the end they won't make the money.

Apparently gambling is in two dimensions which is winning and losing but the fact that gamblers loss more makes it looks like it is just a way of losing money that is not correct because it is also a way of winning depending on how lucky one can be. Secondly, gambling is not a game of fun, and it can never be because there a lot of things we can do to have fun and not gambling but if you believe it is fun for you then I won't have to argue with you about that since it is what you believe or think.

The problem start immediately gamblers started seeing gambling as a means of survival which supposed not to be in that way.
Gambling is very risky and if only people can understand the misery behind gambling, they will not ever take it too seriously or depend on it as a means of survival. Those that are making money are making money and those that are losing are regretting of ever deciding to gamble.

This is a common mistake that most gamblers make. In the beginning, they start thinking of gambling as a good platform for earning money. There are some gamblers among them who cannot afford to spend money on gambling but they still place bets. They have an idea that they might win and after winning they can gamble with that profit. But the result is rather the opposite. If they win, they make profit but if they lose, their situation can be very bad. To escape from that situation, they later take risks again and at one point become addicted gamblers.

The misguided opinion about gambling is one of the primary causes of addiction. Most individuals get into gambling overconfident, greedy, or financially constrained thinking that it can substitute an actual job or make one get rich. As soon as gambling is regarded as a source of revenues, but not a form of entertainment, the losses are pursued, and the risks are taken to the maximum. Participants lose control to greed and before them they find themselves having lost discipline and self control. This attitude may be even more dangerous when performed under the influence of poverty and unemployment, when one is desperate. The combination of gambling and entertainment should never be mixed up with solving financial problems or the likelihood of addiction is almost certain.
