There have been many studies made which show that people do in groups things they would never do when they're on their own, this means that even if you have a lot of self-discipline if you happen to go with your friends to a casino then you'll have bigger chances of betting way more money than what you can afford to lose, and if to this we add that you're more likely to drink alcohol as well then this can be more than enough to make you disregard your upbringing and lose a lot of money in a single night.

The study is correct and it has been proven so many time to be correct. The act of friendship or moving in group makes one to things he can't as an individual. Wheb going for clubbing, dinking and going for gambling, there is every tenndency of calling your friends to go in group in order to have a much fun, and the presence of Friends will make you drink more than you could, same with gambling, when you bet in groups, whether you are in the wiinijg side or the losing side doesn't matter, you will continue to bet till you all are tired or out of fund. But the, apart from the negative implication of it guys also enjoy entertainment aspect of it.

It is the entertainment aspect of it that keeps them going and bonding stronger. But however it is said, disassociating from a certain group of friends will not totally stop gambling addiction, but it will reduce. But it will reduce it. The fastest way to reduce it is to have a love one who will help you out by trying to control you with emotions.

Yes, it's natural to get a little panicky when you and your friends get involved in a casino or gambling activity together. At that moment everyone is drinking a little bit so the unconscious part naturally occurs. But it can organize after a long period of time but not regularly. Such events must be treated as entertainment. After the moment when a gambler starts gambling again he has to gamble systematically according to his way.
