We can see from the syllable alone, that "addiction" has a negative nature. Someone who is addicted will forget the environment around him even he will forget himself. Moreover, this is related to finances, we know that today it is very difficult to get money and they spend it at the gambling table, they have no control over themselves because they are already controlled by thoughts that are uncomfortable when they are not gambling.
I personally am a gambler, it's just the difference between me and us who realize that excessive gambling will have very bad consequences and that is something extraordinary, I mean when we can control ourselves it's a difficult thing to do.

People addicted to gambling will not care about their surroundings because they only think about gambling and gambling. That made them even more alone in gambling with no one to communicate with to help them get out of gambling because he did not think about quitting gambling even though he had won several times.

When someone experiences defeat, they tend to get angry and vent their anger on the things around them. And their anger is often carried away for some time and they have difficulty suppressing it. We are really lucky if we don't experience gambling addiction because we can still enjoy gambling as entertainment and we can still enjoy life.

Exactly like what I said before, they wouldn't care about the surroundings. And I think they will show changes in behavior as a result of their addiction, so if we want and can, we can help them get out of that circle, especially if it is our family. I really understand, when we advise an addict then we will receive a reply that if we are easily offended, we will be very offended. But we also have to understand that what they do is not from themselves but from the influence of the addiction they experience. However if we are able, we should try to help them.

The key here is how his family can see a change in that person so that they can immediately approach him personally and ask about the problem if they know there is a striking change. But the problem is that not all families can pay attention to their family members. And even many families tend not to know if there is a change from one of the family members.

Maybe by approaching him personally and asking for the change, a gambling addict can open up and say the truth so that his family members can immediately give advice and help him. This needs openness and wanting to pay attention to each other from each family member.
