This is something that happens to every single person that has experimented an addiction, as despite the fact that they know that going back to their former addiction is something bad, they cannot help but to crave for those sensations again, now this is very problematic for those that are addicted to illegal drugs, but it should be many times worse for those that got addicted to something that is legal, as the source of their addiction is everywhere and every single day is a struggle for them.
Therefore, you should always stay within the limits. And it's actually quite simple. But our human essence requires us to look beyond the edge and cross it. We never believe someone else's experience, and we won't believe it until we suffer from breaking the rules ourselves. From the decision they made themselves, turning a blind eye to the warnings of other people and the sad stories of people addicted to games. Therefore, it is very important to be able to control yourself and know your weaknesses. We need to be able to look at ourselves from the outside and admit that we are not perfect, and we ourselves may be in the narrator's chair about his gambling addiction. A lot of different circumstances can break us, but now we have no idea about them, because every person has his life experience limited, and expands throughout his life.
Staying in your limits is not simple if you are a regular gambler. It starts becoming harder and harder as you go deeper into your gambling habit and finally find yourself addicted to it. It can be done if you are disciplined from the very beginning and you know that you can't gamble more than a certain amount or you can't keep gambling for more than a decided time span, but if you haven't been doing that from the beginning, you really can't do it later in your journey.

You will barely find a person who started gambling casually without any limit or anything and they started gambling as a responsible person later on, because once you are too deep into the ocean, there is no chance for you to learn swimming because you were supposed to practice that before going there.
