Yes, in my opinion, the initial problem that makes them finally stuck in such a cycle is that they come in a hurry because they see other people who managed to get a big win so that in their arrival they did not think at all about what risks there are in gambling, and in my opinion that is why they are stuck in a slump. Conditions like this are indeed very confusing in my opinion, it is true that there are still many logical suggestions for them but all of that is too late buddy, they will be very difficult to accept advice from others if they have entered the addiction zone, because it is clear as you said that all they think about is satisfaction in gambling, not at all thinking about what the impact will be as terrible someday.
Honestly, if the condition is like that, I can't be sure when they can realize their mistakes, maybe they can only wait for the time, hopefully they can really get bored with gambling and can realize all their mistakes, that's all.
They won't think about what that person went through before they finally got a big win and just think that they can get a big win too. But that is wrong thinking because not all gamblers can get their big wins, and only those who really get their luck can win big. They have to change their mindset like that so that they don't become addicted to gambling because, after all, sooner or later, thinking like that will make them addicted to gambling that they won't realize. More people have thoughts like that when they see other people can win big easily and then decide to follow what that person does. But the reality will not be like what they imagine.
Yes, we can't be sure when they will wake up. We can only hope that they can quickly realize their mistakes so that they can learn from all their mistakes. We can only take care of ourselves while gambling so that we don't experience the same mistakes as them.
Well and that means as I said that they come because they see and are tempted from the victory that other people managed to get without seeing how much money the other people spent to get the big win, basically they did not see from various sides before finally deciding to follow and want the same fate as that person. The only thing on their mind is how they can get the victory like others get when on the other hand for this problem there is no way that can make them have the same fate as others except only luck will answer it. This is a wrong mindset because every gambler has their own luck and in terms of time they will not know when they will be lucky, that's clear. Yes I also hope so, hopefully they can change their mindset as soon as possible so as not to suffer too much defeat which ultimately makes them regret it. That's right, of course over time if they continue to think like that then they will unconsciously enter the real addiction zone, so even though other people can win that way it doesn't mean you will have the same fate as them even by following the way like them.
Honestly it's out of our control and maybe we can only hope for the best for them to sober up soon.
