Gambling cannot be considered as an earning mean. It can be done for fun with only affordable loss of money. All addicts have not that strong will power or determination that can help them to overcome addiction by themselves. Some really need attention from others, especially the closer ones with whom they share everything.
Lets stop this for fun issue and stuff. You cant possibly think that you could have fun in a gambling aite. Afterall you are only playing because you could get some money, otherwise you wont really have any fun at all. Sometimes it is hard to acknowledge this issue but atleast now you are aware of it
Although winning is where we can get the ultimate fun but it seems like we do not have that win all the time and even most of the time.
Let's accept the reality that we lose in the long run and with that it's easy to accept our defeat if we try to convince ourselves that we gambling for fun, at least that way we will not gonna chase our loses anymore because we had let go of that feelings already.
