Such people find it difficult to identify problems because their character is more reserved, aloof and has no friends or close people and only chooses to take risks on their own and when there is no way out and it cannot be controlled choose to end life.

That's not always the case. I know plenty of gambling addicts that have a normal life, family, kids, surrounded by loved ones and friends, they're definitely not alone, it's just a way to have something that gives thrills.
Moreover, it is commonly thought that gamblers are people that have nothing better to do, no serious career, and so on, but I've found that not to be true. Sometimes people with ambition and goal commitment are even more susceptible to addiction, because of their willingness to make things go their way, to push the matter through, etc.

It is true that not all gambling addicts have closed characters and have no friends or family. So if we find gamblers who are addicted and have
a background like that it is just a coincidence. Because some of my friends who are addicted to gambling, like you said, have normal life.
But in the end, if we can't control our addiction to gambling, it can destroy our family and our life. So my advice is to be careful if we are
going to play gambling we have to be able to control ourselves, don't let us become addicted to gambling. Because preventing us from being
addicted to gambling is much better, than we are addicted but trying to control it.
