Yesterday I watched a video about addiction on youtube: https://youtu.be/ao8L-0nSYzg. It was a real surprise to me that according to recent research people are addicted to drugs mainly because they can't bond well with people and are not able to live a satisfying life. The research shows that when an addicted person appears in a loving and caring environment, the addiction kind of disappears (even heroin addiction). I wonder what are your thoughts on this matter and whether you think you could say the same about gambling addiction.

It is indeed true. People that don't have that much social life and doesn't interact with other people like having a decent conversation, a little chit-chat about the things in life and so on are mostly the people who could be easily addicted on something bad, the reason why is because they think that their life is useless, they are worthless person who don't deserve to live because nobody loves them.

And we can't blame them if that is what they are thinking, the only solution for that is to let them know that there are people out there who are willing to help them, to hear them out, to be their crying-shoulder, to be someone who could they trust, it will not be an easy job, but I think that is the only way to save them.

I think that was harsh. You never know if someone is being loved or not and at least the Creator loves everyone. Besides, hackers are alone people too most of the times and it is not like they are desperate for love of others because they love their work. There are many gambling addicts out there who are rich guys and play this game for enjoyment alone.

Yes, I don't believe that gambling addicts are lonely, maybe some of them are lonely but we can't generalize like that for all. As you said, some of rich people gamble just for fun.

you are right, maybe they want to play the game only, and I am sure that there is any reason behind of this and perhaps it's not because of loneliness and dissatisfaction. but if they are playing gambling because of that, then they need to leave the gambling place as soon as possible because he will lose their money and they will become an addicting person.
