Apart from that.. I think people gamble or not, depending on whether or not they are close to gambling, the more addicted they are.. the more determined they will be to gamble without thinking about it that actually we should be responsible gambler.
In general, indeed basically we have to be able to manage finances, make gambling as a free time filler without having to have an excessive sense of interest.
Whether one is close to gambling or not,if you are an addict,there is nothing you can ever do to stop it.The only way an addict can stop gambling is self realization.If an individual realises that gambling has done more harm than good to him,he will change from it.but if he hasn't come to the point of self realization,then he will continue wallowing in the gambling habbit.Keeping your mind and yourself busy is another thing an individual must do to overcome the spirit of gambling.
It is difficult to overcome a gambling addict who can't stop it even if self-realization takes time and friends to support him from the advice that has been given if they return to gambling this is useless and they will be addicted again, so it must be very far away if want to totally not be an addict anyway for me gambling is not for good this is difficult many are irresponsible once they become addicts and still self realization has to be controlled.
Actually we have to be able to differentiate ourselves. I think this is very important for those who are addicts and plus gambling will never disappear from our memories as long as it is still near us.
