[POPOLUV]

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 totally agree with you that one of the major reason why some gamblers are so addicted to gambling is because of desperation of getting rich over time through gambling can lead to addictions and as you said, once a gambler has make a gambling his only source of income, these kind of gambler that has make gambling as the major source, he leveled of addictions can lead to selling of assets just to make sure he never skip a day without gambling and such gamblers don't think anything else than to gambling frequently and if by chance there is know money to stake a game people leaving around him will suffer it, and more specially if the gambler is a man and have a wife at home, is the wife that will suffer it.

Knowing when to stop is indeed important and yes, it will prevent unwanted things from happening. In addition, knowing when to stop is also one of the wise behaviors in gambling, so we must be able to make it a habit if we really like gambling. We must also ensure that the amount of money we use for gambling is within our means.

There are so many things that cause addiction and it is the right of a gambler to stay calm and gamble wisely so that they don't continue to complain while not seeing any solution. There are so many reasons for addiction and those that have been into the addiction problems before can relate on how easy a gambler can become addicted to gambling without there full awareness.

There are things that can cause gambling addiction but you can not become an addict without been aware of the fact that they are slowly turning into that. The moment someone starts gambling often than they use to especially because of the loss they incur that is already a sign that someone is slowly turning an addict and if they didn't stop and they continue with the mindset of trying to recover they will be so much into it before they will know what's happening.

The thing about addiction is not being aware of it, and that is the worst thing, we gradually get addicted to gambling, but we ourselves do not realize that we are now deeply addicted to it and we are constantly getting more and more involved in it. This is a thing where even if we understand it, we cannot make effective decisions at that moment, it becomes kind of uncontrolled, it cannot be controlled in any way. In the end, we become deeply addicted to it, if we do not maintain limitations from the very beginning, then here we are almost sure to become addicted, and then there is no way to escape from this addiction, we have to lose a lot here, and then at some point after losing everything, we start making decisions to get rid of it, but we cannot make this decision at first, like before the losing everything.

Over confidence and pursing of losses is major course of addiction, op point of engaging gambling as sources of living making money is an inevitable factor of addiction,but addiction is emotional factor propelled by over confidence which leads to too much financial engagement above what one can bear in losses and when this losses occur can't be allowed but pursued to be recovered, that is my perception towards what lead's to this addiction, because I hard a friend that capitalized on what he loses and will try to recovered it which I told him just as time lost can't be regained so is money lost in gambling instead more losses can be initiated.

If someone is given more priority as a source of income, the chances of the gambler becoming addicted will increase because he will gamble for the purpose of earning money. In this case, sometimes when he becomes too confident, he tries to gamble with emotion, the results of which also start to be bad. At one point, the gambler's excessive losses force him to gamble. In this situation, when he gambles for a long time, his chances of becoming addicted will increase greatly. Gambling with emotion can increase addiction, and when someone loses a lot in gambling, the attempt to recover that loss will turn the gambler into an addicted gambler.

There are many factors that can trigger addiction, one of which is often when a gambler comes with the idea of ​​making money, such as viewing gambling as a side job, and this is a situation where they are completely focused on winning due to an underlying obsession.
However, consistent gambling can also lead to addiction because gambling is full of temptations. The more you gamble, the more often you see tempting moments that will continue to haunt your mind, indirectly encouraging you to continue playing.

It is true that the idea of making money from gamble is what triggers addiction, but what makes it get worse is chasing losses. At that point whereby they are chasing their losses even though they win a huge amount of money greedy will come in and that moment is when they will want to continue to gamble so that they can make money money. It is not easy to win from the house because everything works in the favor of the house and not for the gambler. The only money a gambler can control is the ones they have won and withdraw, if the money is still in their bet account there is a very big possibility that they will continue to gamble and they might lose all of them to the casino.
Constant gamble leads to addiction because you don't have any other thing to do than fi gamble, spending all your money on gamble and also find a way to recover it back.

Yes, when a gambler starts expecting some income from gambling, his expectation will gradually increase, at some point he will choose it as a means of income, he will spend a lot of time here, thus his thoughts will be more and more involved in it, and thus he will eventually become addicted to it. When someone starts thinking of gambling as a source of income or a side job instead of entertainment, then the danger actually begins, it then makes a place in his daily life, he cannot leave gambling even for a day, he is in it regularly, thus gambling is no longer under control, rather the person himself becomes under the control of gambling.

Stopping yourself at the right time is of course the most important thing, but how many gamblers can accept this? If you can't control yourself, the amount of losses goes beyond the limit, but even after knowing this and even gaining real experience, many gamblers cannot properly observe it and cannot control themselves. The only way to protect yourself from huge financial losses, addiction and undesirable situations is to limit your activities, but if this is not possible, then addiction and big losses will come sure.

Exactly how many gamblers are aware that stopping is one of the important factors in gambling? I think only some gamblers are aware of this, and it is not wrong to say that many are unaware of it.
Having wise behavior in gambling is a way to protect oneself from addiction, which includes its negative effects such as significant financial losses, among others. Lucky are those who are wise in their gambling.

Actually you are aware of it, it is just that you do neglect or trying out to make yourself blind and believing that you arent that still addicted. Who wouldnt know about that you are spending up money which is that over on what you can afford to lose? You are the ones will be that responsible into the actions that you are taking but you do neglect it out because of such reasons. There are just that those BS reasoning that you are just that fine but inside you are already that spending up too much on which it do indicates that you are already that addicted into it. You would be only that accepting out such thing whenever you do seen yourself that you dont have anymore money that you could be able to spend on. Addiction creeps out that obviously but due to that kind of thinking and reasoning then you do most likely be that neglecting it out.

There are those who do able to stop mid-way at the time that they do notice up something but there are those who do continue despite of those excessive behavior on which this is that very bad.

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 it's the first one, taking gambling as your source of income and then sorely depending on gambling. And of course, we know gambling is never predictable, that as you forecast games and analyse it, it doesn't give any assurance that you will win, so the more you keep depending on it and wishing you earn a live out of it, I think you slowly keep drowning in it.

Secondly, addiction is a strong thing to overcome, and at such, gamblers should avoid depending on it for survival and daily sustainance, because such practices births addiction. There are opportunities out there that one can engage to survive with, or you could learn a skill, and with time, you begin to earn. Gambling should be treated as relaxation game and fun and not to depend on it for survival

It is true that the mentality of making a living by gambling is not the right decision at all. dependent earning is needed to make a living, and there is no confirm of making money through gambling. We cannot say for confirm what the outcome of gambling will be. And it is absolutely foolish to live a life depending on something where there is no confirm. And when a person starts gambling without following the rules of gambling in the hope of making quick money, gambling gradually turns into an addiction. Gambling addiction gradually destroys a gambler. It is very important to be aware while gambling so that gambling does not destroy our life and to manage gambling with that mentality.

[JoyceBTC]

There are so many reasons why so many people get addicted to gambling but one of the major reason is because they are looking for quick money, so they continue doing it everyday to see if they can actually get lucky, without even knowing that they are gradually getting addicted to it. So gradually it then becomes hard to stop.

The two reasons you gave are good enough reason why people no longer notice the it is alright limit as regards gambling. Taking it as a source of income or using it to escape responsibilities will likely lead to the same end. Somehow when it's taken as a means of income, the gambler is by implications running away from responsibilities as per doing one thing or the other to earn a living.
Altogether, uncontrollable expectations with the unquenchable desires to surprise the public has caused some people to become addicted gambler.

I would always advise treating gambling as entertainment. And if you manage to make some money and withdraw your winnings, then treat that money as additional income. When I was trying to earn money through gambling, I ended up losing more, but when I decided that gambling would be just entertainment for me, I started taking it more lightly, and my winnings increased. I don’t know maybe it’s just a coincidence.

Greed isn't the only reason, there is a psychological aspect of it that you have to consider that many people ignore. This is why when you are an addict, they take you to a place where a lot of psychologists try to cure you, and not some surgeon trying to remove parts of your body that makes this happen.

Because there is no part of your body, it's your mind, and your mind can be cured by only a psychologist, a therapist, and you can only get better if you accept that you have a problem.

[LUCKMCFLY]

You have to control yourself in both situations. You can never control whether you win or lose in gambling, but you can control yourself, so controlling yourself is very important.

Yes, in that sense I support what you say because we are adults who know what is good and bad, who know that if we don't control ourselves the money will disappear and we will be the only ones responsible for such irresponsibility, that's why our self-control, the idea of ​​protecting our money and good planning of our management is what can make us see that things are possible to do well, I insist a lot about money being so important.

[Agbe]

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.

I have been an addict before but when I am not happy and passing through a tough situation, gambling as never come my mind before, but the reason I was addicted was because I wanted to make money from gambling, the weakest point while gambling is when I am losing already, but while winning also is another weak point as I can become more reckless while while winning.

So the main reasons for your addiction back then were because you were sad and gambling was like an escape out of your emotional distress and the other reason was because you were broke, then you tried to use gambling as a way to get a source of income. These reasons are enough to get anyone addicted to gambling,these are still the main issues some people face and they can't help themselves.

~ but definitely stop after losing 2 times more than you can easily afford to lose.

Why stop only after losing two times more than you can afford to lose? Simply stop when you realize you are losing, and as gamblers, we all know that you can sense it when your luck is absolutely not working,

The thing is that we can't know anything about such things. You can "realize" that you are losing, make another bet and win a lot right away. That's the thing about luck, one moment it can be "absolutely not working" and all of sudden start working a second later. That's how gambling works and that's why we love it so much.

and every single bet that you play turns out to be a loss, and in such times, even if you manage to get some win and recover what has already been lost, don't expect that another win is coming and you are going to get profitable, because if you can see and sense that you are mostly losing, then you shouldn't continue, just stop right there and come back later to try your luck again. When it comes to the times when you are winning, one should keep a count about  ...

As you you can see from what I wrote above, "seeing and sensing" that you are winning(or losing) sounds like nonsense to me. You can only see what you have won or lost and it has no impact on the future bets whatsoever.

No matter how you choose to treat gambling, whether as a means of entertainment or as means of making profit. The most important thing is not allow yourself to get carried away. Gambling shouldn't be every day thing, some people feel that it is only those that see gambling as means of making money that only get addicted to it . However this very wrong, you channel all your time and energy to something then addiction will set in.

gambling addiction mainly develops from overconfidence and the attempt to recover lost money,when someone wins at the beginning they start to believe they can control the game and will always win, this overconfidence pushes them to risk more money than they can afford, gambling depends on luck so losses are inevitable, when a loss happens many people cannot accept it, instead of stopping they continue gambling to recover the lost money,this is known as chasing losses,at that point decisions are made from emotion not logic, anger frustration and fear take over, just as lost time can never be recovered money lost in gambling also cannot be recovered, trying to win it back only leads to bigger losses, this is how gambling slowly turns into addiction...

Gambling is so something that can make you become addicted easily i you're someone that like rushing for profit you need fast money, you can become addicted easily and again if you're not going for break in gambling when you win or lose and you continue betting always that is how you will become addicted easily. I have a friend that told me that he take gambling as and entertainment and he play games always later he said gambling is legit for him and he will make it another source of income since is getting more benefits in gambling then other things is doing. Later he lost everything and he started to regret why he didn't stop it and look for another way to generate profit. Betting is something that can influence you fast if you are someone that understands it better and he favours you for the first times.
