Casinos can be a good distraction in difficult times?

[ChocolateBitcoinK]

Basically, if you can truly accept the casino as a means of entertainment, then you can get good entertainment from it. But what basically happens is that those who go to the casino to find entertainment eventually forget their purpose. They start for entertainment but their greed here very soon leads them in the wrong direction. At one point, they start seeing gambling as a source of income, and that is where they face the most losses, because then the subject is no longer entertainment, and because of this they do not have the mentality to accept any loss. And at this point, it only becomes a cause of loss.
So I would say that the casino can be an entertainment, here you have to be sure first that it is only an entertainment for you, and you can get yourself out of it with any result. That is, whether it is a profit or a loss, the main thing here is to maintain self-control to get out of the game at the right time, if it is there, then it can be an entertainment.

Casinos games can be a good distraction in difficult times to those gamblers that permits such to overwhelm them because most rich gamblers can never consider casinos as means of distraction in difficult times but you see those average or middle people that falls between rich and the poor, are the people that will consider casinos as a good distraction in difficult times because their sources of income is that enough to deal with all the expenses, so i don't know if anyone has experience that gamblers can be lucky to win mostly in the difficult times and if you have not succeeded in winning in your difficult time, i have experience it several times.

In the news only bad news, war, climate problems, still have the personal problems to manage. Today people don't have time, is all week working hard. Arrives the weekend is the moment to have fun watching a game on the television and betting who wins with friends. Or goes to physical casino with girlfriend or friends see a show, plays eats drinks have a lot of fun to have strength for one more week of work. Casinos used with smart wisdom can be a good entertainment for fun in difficult times.

I would be very careful with using the word good, because people have weird understandings of what that means. If you are talking about it as in it works very well, then you would be correct. But good can also mean that it is beneficial or that it is the right thing to do, and that is not true. Many things that are very good at distraction are actually harmful for you, and then even more things like that are not directly harmful but start being harmful as soon as you start over consuming it like some food or playing video games or binge watching and that. So even if something works really well as a distraction, you need to be careful because of this it might be a trap and then you may cause a lot of harm to yourself. I do not recommend anyone to use gambling as a distraction because that creates a pattern in which there is a connection for using gambling as a coping method in your brain. This may not cause a problem now, but later down the road you may have an actually bad episode of something in your life and then you will use gambling as a way to cope with that and you will find yourself fast in an addiction. Many people who said that this can't happen to them are the people who got addicted the hardest..

Honestly there is no harm in gambling for entertainment. Gambling was made for entertainment for rich people but most people use it as a means of earning money. And this is where the problem starts. That is if you compare gambling to watching a movie, then there is no problem because there you are spending your money and buying an entertainment. For example there are two types of people who go to Las Vegas, one type of people who go to gamble to enjoy their weekend and another group of people who go to gamble to earn money.  And at the end of the day, they comeback with too many losses. So I would say this depends on which perspective you want to look at it from.

[Yeesha]

Yes, because gambling is basically a form of entertainment, as long as it is treated that way. It can be used as a stressed reliever after a stressful week. Placing bets with your friends while having fun, the laughter, celebrating winnings and even saying a joke after having losses. Sometimes, those are the unforgettable memories you can have.

It can be use to distract yourself in many different things. As long as you manage and you gamble with the only money you can afford to lose, you have nothing to worry about. Having problems in gambling usually starts if you decided to chase your losses and try to make it as your source of income.

Gambling can be a stressed reliever to only those who view it in which way. Gamblers have different purpose for gambling and it is hard to detect which is which, because evey gambler will claim that they are gambling for the purpose of entertainment, fun, and enjoyment, until you find them in the middle of addiction. The dangerous part of gambling is not addiction, but when a gambler failed to take the appropriate measures after addiction.  As a result of addiction some of the addict will neglect their health, intake of balance diets and personal hygiene, because they are busy spending more money in gambling, and these make them more vulnerable to some certain diseases.

Yeah, casino gaming for entertainment purposes  can provide good distractions in difficult times, it can provide an enabling platform or environments where one can actually think clearly but  there are some level of difficulty one might find themself in, the casino isn’t the best place to be at that moment, if one is already having too much in his head, and you know casino gaming and gambling requires lots of brain works and calculations which you might not be needing such brain work at the moment so you don’t get to damage your brain. But above all, casino should be a place of fun and not put oneself in a pressure of trying to earn money which is solely dependent on luck.

Some don't even know they're addicted which is why they fail to take measures to adress it, addiction can be very chronic and affect people negatively to the point that they'll feel they're having fun and ignore other important aspect of life. Gambling is fun no doubt but not letting the fun clout ones thinking and spending habit on it matters alot else having fun and entertainment can end being one of the biggest mistake ever made cause it would end up in addiction which was never the plan. There are many ways people themselves from different negative situations but if one chooses gambling then precautionary measures should be taken towards it to avoid addiction.

Initially casinos and gambling platforms were created mainly for fun and entertainment but some bettors refused to see them that way, gambling can actually ease mental stress, if approach in the appropriate way. There times when I feel mentally stressed, because of the situation I'm in at that moment, and I usually go gambling just to releive myself of that stress.  If only bettors would start seeing gambling as a means of having fun and entertainment, there would fewer cases of gambling addition.

Well you might be right that casino is used for entertainment, fun or a good distraction mechanism in difficult times during weekends after much hours of work in the week days to ease our stress, but it come with a price. This Price is risk, you don't mind losing all you have worked for 1 Year in just 1 Day of entertainment. From fun and distraction it becomes seriousness, it gradually excalate or leed to addiction of loses. and out of anger of losing what you have took time to save and want to recover by force, you lose all instead and the entertainment become a worst nightmare.

[Fiasem20]

Fortunately,gambling could be used as a distraction from difficult times to most gamblers.But as you’re using it as a distraction to heal your wounded emotions always do it rightly,I know of some gamblers that usually gamble recklessly whenever they’re moody but that’s not going to make any difference because even as you’re gambling in a moody state you’d end up losing more which would give rise to future regrets,personally I would encourage gamblers to gamble when they’re in their right state of mind.But if casino has been a route that you’ve been using to put yourself together it’s fine but don’t abuse it,because when you abuse it,it could give birth to addiction which you didn’t expect coming.

I agree with you, that sometimes life can be difficult with all the bad news, climate problems war, and personal issues that individuals face. After working hard throughout the week, weekend can be the only time someone can actually relax, bet with friends, watch football and go out to enjoy himself.  For some people, visiting casino with friends or partner, having fun can help people relax, and forget stress for some time.

I still believe that casino is suppose to remain entertainment and something that someone is supposed to depend on as a source of income or use it to escape challenges. If a person gamble with money that they can afford to lose, know when to stop and set limits, he can enjoy the experience without allowing gambling to create more problems for him. Sometimes relaxation and little entertainment can give strength and a fresh mind to face another week of work.

If we look it carefully, casinos are always a good source of entertainment for people. If we talk about online casinos, then it can only be a source of our personal entertainment. But a good physical casino has various means of entertainment. If a gambler goes here to have fun with his friends, I think they will have the best time of that day. The fatigue, anger, pride, sadness of the whole week will all be dissolved there in an instant. But even while having fun, you have to keep yourself in control. Because if you do not have self-control, your daily spending money in the casino can end in an instant. We should remember that it is possible to have the most fun in the casino only if you balance both entertainment and financial control together.

Casinos used with smart wisdom can be a good entertainment for fun in difficult times.

Yes the real positive intent of casinos is to facilitate relaxation and entertainment but I will take a contrary view to this against what many have responded. The reason for the contrary view is on what we are experiencing with the stories coming out from the gambling system because many people have put pressure on themselves to win and so they do all sort of risk to try and win and that further get them committed as they fail and chase profit. People have become slavery to gambling after the harsh treatment from work that they are suppose to rest. The economy is failing, leaving people into poverty, making them to try to succeed in gambling which is a mirage.

[mirakal]

Casinos can be a good distraction if you practice discipline and emotional control when you're gambling. But if you are gambling with high greed, and take leverage on your bets, believe me losing will be so much painful.

Instead of trying to get rid and breath from your difficult times, you end up falling into a bigger problem, losing an amount you can't afford to lose, or losing the funds that you are intended to pay the bills. If you are like this, don't bother to gamble especially when you are in a state of difficulty, financially, mentally and emotionally. You will only make the worst of everything.

[Questat]

Sometimes this becomes effective for a while because playing casino is the same as drinking alcohol we can forget for a moment the problems we experienced but everything will return to the way it was when we finished and returned to the real world.

If talking about the effectiveness of eliminating the mind for a moment is good but forever it will not be possible because after all the problems that are not resolved and only postponed while it will only accumulate.
The momentary pleasure gained from gambling won't solve anything but it can lighten up a bit when we need refreshing

Yes, it can be really helpful for a moment, but that won't solve the problem. I also find myself gambling just to lessen the stress I have been feeling all week, and I think looking for an entertainment like gambling in casinos can be a cure for a while so you don't think too much on how to get rid of those difficulties in life.

However, getting hooked in gambling like you have to spend everything you have is also another story. That's not entertaining at all, you are becoming greedy trying to beat the house when you all know its highly impossible.

[Bright0515]

Whatever you do don't make gambling an escape away from anything, be it boredom, depression or whatever just make sure that it's not something you are trying to use as a way to replace something else. The reason why I'm saying that is because using gambling as an escape from a situation makes it even worse. Some people get frustrated with life and the first thing they think about is to gamble, this is the reason why they end up throwing their money away because of their emotional state.

My take on this might not actually be one to agree with but I think you should avoid gambling in your difficult times, just find other ways to solve the problem.

You just nailed it correctly, casino used with 'wisdom'. But sadly enough, many users lack wisdom and forget that it was originally created for fun and then most importantly, to make money from gamblers.

But let's keep it on the positive side of the topic. Truly, gambling of any kind can sometimes be a source of good distraction from bad state of mind or when one is in difficult times. And this is why I value weekends so much. I discover that my weekends become somehow boring when there is an international break and all leagues are not playing. There is always something different when there is no match to watch during weekends. The feeling explains it all that casinos or any other gambling experience one might be involved helps positively to distract the gambler from sometimes life stress, enough stress accumulated from work, pressure from home or family, colleagues or children, etc. if we can gamble right always, and ensure to maintain a healthy gambling habit, then we can as well enjoy some positive thrills embedded in anything gambling.

Sure you are correct. If you are able to approach gambling the right way, then it is a very good way to distract yourself from the daily problems the world itself brings.. Especially that moment of watching a fun game and betting with friends or family, it’s an wholesome experience.. We’ll just have to be calculative with how we approach gambling, so it can be an entertainment and not something of regret..

I do not recommend anyone to use gambling as a distraction because that creates a pattern in which there is a connection for using gambling as a coping method in your brain. This may not cause a problem now, but later down the road you may have an actually bad episode of something in your life and then you will use gambling as a way to cope with that and you will find yourself fast in an addiction. Many people who said that this can't happen to them are the people who got addicted the hardest..

I can only recommend someone to use gambling as a distraction for a moment while sometimes they can also look into other things.There are other activities or game that we can play when we need distraction that is risky free, such as PS game, I usually play PS whenever I need distraction I also play casino most of the time I need distraction. However, Whether a person chose to use casino as distraction or not they need to ensure that they set boundaries because there is a way a gambler would Loss while trying to feel distracted they will change from feeling distracted to chasing after loss.

Surely I think it's necessary to apply self control and discipline when gambling to relieve stress. Failure to do so will definitely turn against you, and you might likely not like the way it will end. Sometimes I don't think it's a good idea to use gambling during difficult times, there are things we don't need to go close to when we are not in our right senses because you would become much more aggressive trying to ease your mind when you are in difficult times. That's why we don't need to go for something that wouldn't affect us in the end because it's obvious that gambling involves more losses than wins.
