I think it's important to be able to relax in something other than gambling. There are a lot of ways to relax and enjoy yourself. This can be travel, sports, hobbies, creativity and many other things. If a person relaxes only by gambling, sooner or later it will lead to the loss of a significant amount of money.
respond to the hobby you mentioned.
gambling is a hobby that can be done and there is nothing wrong with it as long as the gambler is a professional. because professional gamblers have a strategy to avoid big losses and when they get a win they will stop gambling immediately.
different from gambling addicts who only think about their emotional satisfaction that can not be controlled and will lose more money.
it doesn't matter for me to channel my hobby into gambling as long as the gambler can control his emotions.
I rather agree with len01.
I understand that gambling is not a very good option in order to relax normally.
On the contrary, gambling will lead to psychological stress anyway. And they absolutely cannot be considered an option to relax and enjoy the moment. Of course, meditation or yoga classes are also good for relaxing any person and player, but not gambling, which involves experiences and sometimes even stress.
I don’t even remember gambling addiction, which, as you know, can be classified as a mental illness.
