I once read in a forum, I don't know which thread I wrote that someone had a heart disease, and the disease relapsed until he died after getting a big win, I remember reading it here exactly, and it is one of the physical defects that can cause someone to lose their life, for a normal level of addiction but when you have a disease that is physically easily triggered in an emotional outburst or happy can cause someone to be killed, blood, high and heart, or maybe there are others too?
Yeah I’ve come across that thread here too about a gambler who collapsed as a result of a heart attack after hitting a big win. This is very normal because people will some severe heart disease are advised to stay completely away from any activity that’ll startle them. Sometimes can good news can come as serious shock which can increase the blood pressure and affect the heart.
Over excitement can also be a very terrible thing to deal with as a gambler, lack of emotional control in general can be dangerous. personally I feel like gambling shouldn't be able to control your mood because if it does then it means that you are not gambling the right way. being too excited after winning can lead to lots of mistakes, some gamblers even end up losing everything

Review what protective measures you can take to reduce the risk of excessive gambling. You should stop gambling at any point in time, whether you are winning or losing, to reduce the risk of excessive losses. This means that you should stop gambling during periods of loss to avoid further losses. You should also stop when you are winning because the temptation to win more increases the likelihood of losing the next time.
Yes, of course, to reduce the risk of excessive gambling, we must stop gambling regularly. If we gamble regularly and spend a lot of money on gambling, then we can become addicted to gambling very quickly because we should never expect to earn money by gambling and should never use excessive money for gambling. Those who have used excessive money in the past and considered gambling as a means of earning money, but they have become addicted to gambling very quickly, so whatever do, a gambler must be careful about all this.

I believe gambling addiction is a silent killer. There are no symptoms; you may see a healthy person, but deep within, they are suffering from depression and physical disabilities. They may look happy outside, but deep inside, they are lonely and helpless.
We know some addiction symptoms such as spending too much time in gambling, has no ability to stop it (even a day), being easily angry after losses, and some other else. These are some symptoms which are quite visible from the addicts. When someone is suffering a depression, it is also a part of the symptoms. So, we actually can investigate the signs of addiction although it should be checked to the doctors or specialist for a clearer result.

What makes it a silent killer they starts unnoticed until it's accumulated over the years, and all the symptoms appear after so many years of concealing it.
For the addicts, they may be unaware of the symptoms. Yes, it can be called a silent killer if we view it from the side of the addicts. That's why we must be careful and be more sensitive with any change of our habits.
