Winning and losing can make someone return to gambling because the temptation to get more wins or to recover their losses will come. And that will make them want to keep gambling even though they have experienced loss before. That's where we have to realize that it is difficult to stop gambling, but if they have a strong desire to stop gambling, they can stop gambling on time.
It is difficult for someone who wants to stop gambling to recover completely, it takes time and that also depends on the level of gambling addiction, if it is at a lower level it might be fast but at a high level then it takes time to process it, so far I have seen people trying to stop but If you don't have a strong desire in your heart, you will definitely end up failing and not succeeding.

The suggestion is that if you are addicted, you should reduce your gambling activities until the more you reduce them, the less your desire to gamble will decrease, so this method is more effective than completely stopping gambling immediately because it will hurt your feelings too. It is difficult to cure yourself of gambling addiction, so always avoid it. This happens by gambling more wisely and understanding that the risk of losing in gambling is very real so you have to understand if you experience defeat.
First, fighting gambling addiction is difficult and heartbreaking. Fighting such an ingrained behavior requires persistence. People often fall down this dangerous slope and struggle to climb up. Yes, gradually decreasing gambling behavior may alleviate the emotional pain of abruptly stopping.

To quit gambling, one needs a strong support structure with resources, emotional support, and possibly financial help. Decreasing gambling behavior slowly sounds desirable, but isnt the risk always there? Even a little gambling might spark the underlying craving, destroying progress. How may reducing activities not spark gambling?
