Both consecutive wins and losses can lead to gambling addiction. When a gambler loses bets repeatedly, he needs to take a break from gambling, but the opposite reaction is seen among gamblers. They plan to gamble more to recover their lost money. As a result they become an addicted gambler within few days. Every gambler must conduct gambling within a limit. Gambling with the hope of large profit leads to the possibility of losing money in a short period of time as well as the possibility of becoming addicted to gambling.
Addiction is a complex issue, and it must be faced directly.
Some people are going to lose all their life savings in a few days. That's just not healthy, and people lose their minds first, money next, and sometimes even their life after that.
Gamble responsibly is more than just a warning, it's a life saving phrase in some cases.
but for those who are already addicted to gambling, this life saving phrase is very hard to implement. if not address early, the person will indeed be on the brink of self-destruction as well as destroying his family. because whatever his decisions will be, his immediate family is more then likely affected.
so if you think you are the one who is heading to addiction, pause for a while and contemplate on what you really want in life.
yes, you are absolutely right if someone is already at the "addicted" stage of gambling, it will be difficult to think clearly because of their mindset and mental problems.
it is true that "addiction" to gambling must be dealt with immediately and this cannot be done according to the gambler's self-awareness. instead, it is the role of the family and the closest people who must take firm action on him.
strictly what i mean here does not mean to intimidate the addicted person because it will add to his mental burden, what must be done is for his family or those closest to him to pay more attention to him and invite him to divert his activities to do things that are more productive.
and if necessary, people who are addicted to "offline" gambling must be invited to move from the environment where they gamble. for those who are addicted to "online" gambling, they must be limited to using internet access and must often be invited to do productive offline activities.
