I think having that kind of problem will be a red flag for you because you are becoming an addict. For context, you are becoming obsessed and you think that you haven't had enough because you want to chase the thrilling feeling of gambling.
It was a crazy thing to happen. I can't imagine how people would suffer such difficulties because of dumb gambling addiction. I think that even we caught into gambling addiction but having a situation like this, it not only an addiction but more than that case.
If someone has this particular case, he probably needs to see a doctor coz there is something, not normal and it needs to seek medical advice.
