What you would have actually highlighted would have been the major problems such as
- Depression and stress(very serious health problem in my opinion) some people have even committed suicide due to gambling
- Very addictive and hard to let go
I agree.There are really those gamblers who have not recover from addiction and so they do things unconsciously.Yes they may commit suicide especially if they cannot bear the pain or depression anymore.For me,all the disadvantages of gambling may not be possible if a gambler knows how to handle himself and has his own limits enough not be addicted with gambling.
