Been addicted is chaos to one's state entirely

[leonair]

I have been gambling for the past ten years now and seriously I must say I have lost more than I have profited thou it feels as if I should keep on trying so I can recover back my losses but that's the more money I keep on losing sometimes I will delete the app to free myself from it then during the week ends my friends will show me some nice games asking if I have interest in it then the spirit comes and I will download back the app and I will go back to what has been eating me up is so addicting that I called the app my daily food.
Some persons out there might be facing the same situation and it is affecting there state of mind and how they live there life's the fact is to just let go you can't recover those losses is gone just accept defeat and move on though is hard but you have to that's what I did

These things are seen in everyone when you gamble for a long time because if you use something for a long time and suddenly stop it, then you will see an incomplete part of yourself and you will miss that time of day. For example, if you gamble at a certain time every day, if you stop playing, you will miss gambling at that time of day. This is basically our psychology. And gambling is such an interesting thing, so if you get an opportunity to gamble, you definitely don't want to miss it. This doesn't happen only to you, it happens to everyone and I myself am a victim of it.

What is normal for the spider is chaos for the fly.

The only way we can meet chaos head on is to have a cool head and a disciplined mind. Everything else falls into place once you achieve that state of being. Otherwise, well, you end up with pure chaos which controls you instead of you, it.

Exactly, sometimes some people think they are in control or they are in charge until they realize they are not and they have been wrong the whole time. I have come across someone that always gamble and when speak with him about the way he gambles he will say he's in charge and nothing is going to happen not until he can not stay a day without gambling and even if he doesn't have money he will either borrow or go play on credit and today he has realized his mistakes and he's trying to adjust now but adjusting is not always easy.

It happens that before a gambler becomes addicted, they do not realize that they are addicted, they think they are in control, but in reality they are not. They were very wrong but they had no idea about it, and this is what happens to most gamblers. If we are not careful from the beginning, then later we will suffer such a loss that we can never accept it normally. Among these we will suffer huge financial losses where we lose an amount that we cannot afford to accept and we have had to struggle for a long time to achieve it, so these are definitely not acceptable. But if we do not want to face such a situation, then we have to be careful from the beginning.

There is no doubt that any addiction will cause us problems, especially gambling addiction, which can certainly destroy our lives. I am sure that all of us have seen or even experienced addiction, whether severe or not, but there are cases where someone's life has been destroyed because of a gambling addiction. In addition, the news that often appears involving gambling is mostly negative cases, which are essentially cases of addiction.

However, addiction will not occur and will not destroy someone's life if it is not allowed to happen. In other words, doing something wisely will prevent us from becoming addicted. But with gambling, which causes many people to become addicted, it is real because many people hope to win, but unfortunately, instead of gaining profits, it leads to addiction.

this question is important to me that is why I want to ask this question, if a gambling can destroy somebody when the person is addicted in gambling what is the reason why people continue to gambling why they know that harmful in such way you describe to gambling but it can destroy somebody's life? For me I see people but starting in gambling as a pleasure to them likewise me I gamble when I feel like for Gamble because I want to make money in gambling so if we are gambling because you want to make money in gambling you can be easily become addicted and when you are addicted in gambling it might cost you harm but I don't think that it will destroy the person's life as you said.

It doesn't matter all have a purpose and no one will forbid when we gamble to get money but it needs to be corrected when doing on that intention does not mean we will quickly get addicted to gambling but the risk of addiction will be slightly greater than those who gamble but have more prudence and do not see that winning is everything because they know that gambling is a place to lose.

So it would be wrong to say that those who play to win will get addicted quickly because this condition depends on their self-control. In fact, sometimes there is a positive side of those who gamble to make money where when they lose, there are definitely some gamblers who will be more careful not to lose money and not in accordance with their goals.

Essentially, you have complete control over your gambling. No one can control your gambling decisions, and all decisions are yours. Therefore, try to maintain good self-control. If you want to quit gambling due to a bad habit, try to distance yourself from anything related to gambling for a while. If possible, try to explain your situation to your friends so they will understand. However, if they can't understand, then you need to distance yourself from unsupportive friends. I don't mean to cut off your friendships with your friends, but sometimes maintaining distance is necessary in certain situations, especially in the case you are experiencing.

Maintaining good self-control and discipline is the very key that will help one in avoiding whatever thing that will lead them into being addicted, which is why people are to ensure that they know what gambling is all about for their own advantage, as this will also support them in enjoying the essence of gambling, which is designed to be a game of fun and entertainment and not what will deprived people joy and happiness, because it will surely affect their mental wellness.

What I tell anyone that I see suffering from gambling addiction is you have to admit for yourself you're an addict and accept that you need help, for that's how you can get it easily to win against any form of negative addiction to any activity or substance. When you allow those you love to help you and you're moved by their desire to salvage you from your addiction, then it worth saying that the love shown can make you the addict choose those important to you over whatever you're addicted to and that could be the beginning of the end of your addiction.

Yes, when we can admit our addiction, then we will have the mindset to accept advice. The way out of any negative habit always starts from within ourselves. You have to take the first step, only then you can accept the advice of others. However, it is also our responsibility to bring an addicted person out of this terrible gambling addiction, we should come forward for help, give them good advice, make them understand how harmful gambling is through friendly behavior, in this way we should give them good advice, and also if they also have an attempt to get out of the addiction, then they will definitely be able to succeed in getting out of it.

So what do you think about the ones that are not giving some self effort to help themself to change for the better from gambling addiction. Can we force such change on them, especially when they're our family member, should it be to take it as a personal responsibility to see to the change. I hope am ain't digressing. Because I have seen addicts that are not willing to change even after knowing they're having a gambling addiction challenge.

You are very correct. As long as the person has made gambling part of himself and usual daily routine, the person will definitely feel the effect each time they don't do it. Another example to give is when you have a specific waking-up time which your alarm usually reminds you of duty keeping that up for more than a month even if the alarm doesn't get you up your body will automatically adjust to waking up during that time until you try to get it off you.

It's a chronic addiction where you can't spend a single moment without gambling. The only hope is to recover the losses, but that's impossible, considering the percentage of losses is far higher than wins.
There's no other way but to force yourself to stop. The first step is to remove all access to gambling and then increase your activities to keep yourself busy so you don't think about it. I have a friend who was addicted, and now he's recovered through this method.

[boyptc]

I have witnessed a lot of stories like that. When they have become gambling addicts, they have already affected their kind of living.

And it serves as a warning to all of the gamblers that if we get to that point that we're already affecting the important matters in our lives.

You have to stop at that point and make sure not to mess with all things you do for your living just because of irresponsible gambling.

[nelson4lov]

If you think of gambling that way as a "daily food" then you're already wrong and what you're doing ; chasing your decade long losses is the perfect recipe for more terrible gambling decisions which will pile up to the ones you already made in the past. Imo, you first need to let go of the feeling or need that you have to recover what has been lost. It's gone. Forget about it. That's why even if you quit, you keep coming back because you think today might be the day you recover all.

Happy for you that you were able to heal from gambling addiction and you used your family's help to overcome it. While many are afraid to take such a step of telling their family they are addicted, you did it anyway, and the result is worth celebrating and telling the world about.

This shows that family is there for its members in some way Who else can we rely on? It has to be them. They are our lineage; we must honor them, help them, and also allow ourselves to be helped. And even though many families are dysfunctional, we have to be mature enough to say yes, and that in the case of addiction, it's something that requires all the support possible. It's great that he recovered; he's an example to follow.

He's an example to follow, and he also has a good supportive family, but for some, their family can't be of any help because of how disconnected they are or issues which are going on there; it might not be the same result, and there might actually be nobody to share such with because they will end up mocking you or making a joke out of it, as I have seen families like that, as if they are all looking for what will bring the next person down. Outsiders, which are friends to the person in such a case, could be of more help than the bloodily related ones.

Can you imagine if all family members were like that? I think the world would be more united, or rather, what if instead of family members, friends were like that? What if friends gave the support they should? Those who have money could get professional help and split the expenses, but it would be a great force I don't know if the world could ever reach that level, but it would be the best thing and would make a better world.

It makes sense that when they start gambling, they might think that they can control themselves even though the result is to make them addicted and it is difficult to stop gambling whether the result is losing or winning. The wrong step or decision can be disastrous for us, that's why if we gamble, we must be careful.
One of the things that will be affected is finances which can be a mess with the lowest point being bankruptcy.

Normally, approaching gambling without applying extreme care and caution can be disastrous to the gambler. Gambling is something that one should exercise self control over at all time. The slightest careless behavior can be the end of the gambler. The worst part of this is that, when a gambler becomes careless with his gambling, the first thing that suffers is his finance, and then every other area of his life and until he begins to keep his gambling habit in check, it’ll only get worse.

That's obvious, because I myself have experienced it, where I was trapped in a cycle of gambling addiction that got me into trouble, especially financially, because most of my money was spent on gambling. We have to be able to gamble reasonably and not let gambling control us, because if that happens, it means we are already addicted. Addiction can truly destroy lives, so if we feel we've gone overboard with gambling, we should address it promptly.

That's why it's important to prepare ourselves to losses since it's the reason for majority of us on why we're becoming addicted. Chasing the losses by spending more money (hoping to recover it back) is really not advisable. I experienced it myself that's why I know how hard it is to be in such situation. It's hard to overcome addiction but possible if you have the willingness to change what you used to.

I can bit my chest that, no gamble has recovered the amount of money he or she has lost to gambling. Even me, the amount of money I lost to gambling, I haven't even regained 10 percent of it till date. That is out of 100 percent I haven't earned back up to 10 percent, and am not bothered, because the amount I lost to gambling is what I can afford to loose.

That's true bro, nobody can actually gets back his lost fund's in gamble not even up to one third of it, however I have noticed some people try to move faster than their shadows by going extra miles just to regain back their lost but the more they strive harder the more lost they get and it's funny away.

Gamble is surpose to be a game of fun, and if by chance you are lucky to take something home then it's fine, but in recent time our negative approach towas it has made it a major chaos in our life and has brought us major lost due to constant chasing of our lost and this has been a continuous problem that is yet to have a lasting solution. Let's get this straight at once as a gambler, funds lost in gambling scenes should be forgotten because the more you keep on remembering it or trying going after it is more you go closer to your doom,  the casinos aren't stupid perhaps they are the master strategy, therefore just invest the little you can let go Incase you loose and safe your head the stress.

Addiction is a chaos,it may not necessarily be related to gambling but a lot of individuals are battling with addiction,it either you’re taking one step forward and two steps backward,it seems like an endless fight.But it is quite fortunate that addiction can be stopped,controlled and prevented,you just have to seek a professional session for counseling and avoid conserving gambling activities with your friends,reason is because most information you’ve received could reshape your perspective,so at that stage of controlling your gambling addiction it’s quite important to desist from gambling related activities that may likely trigger your gambling spirit.

I think almost every gambler has been there before, even I have too. I’ve even gotten to the point where I even used money that was given to me to give to someone to gamble with hopes of making profit from it and still lost it on the process. This experience either makes a gambler more wiser or more foolish. Some gamblers use this experience and learn discipline from it, while others would want to revenge their lost and keep going deeper into the addiction.

Yes, many people tend to become addicted because they are not prepared to lose or face losses, because that attitude makes them want to win no matter what happens. They will continue to try to win, but in the end, it only traps them in a cycle that is detrimental to themselves. Rather than chasing losses, it is better to stop when you lose, with the aim of preventing greater losses. It is true that overcoming addiction is difficult, but there is still a chance to get better if we are willing to try hard.
