Being addicted to gambling, drinking, clubbing or any other things also depend on the environment you are brought up and the manner in which you were brought up. Some people are trained to be disciplined and learn where to cut the thread. When a habit is becoming repetitive, you should know and caution yourself. But most times it is difficult to control when you have a group of friends who influences you and in such a situation the remedy is always to relocate and have a fresh life somewhere else in a different environment.
If you are addicted in any thing, even the environment you relocate to will not make you to change rather you will be the to corrupt the environment you relocate to. Except it's a situation whereby you made up your mind to denounce gambling with your mind, it's when you will not participants in gambling again, but you refused to push out your mind and relocate to another environment because of gambling, definitely you will pertake in it. So environment does not change an adult only the children environment can change their life style totally.
