This is actually the best advice that can be given to anyone who feels they can use they boredom and place it with their gambling habits because the only truth is because they lack discipline and once anyone lack discipline they can do anything to fill a void in them and doing other activities like video game playing can aslo be a good means of actually feeling this void. I once had a cousin who actually had similar issue and he also blamed it on the emptiness of his mind and always found himself in a gambling house trying to fill his dreams.

maybe by playing games they can fill their lonely time, because playing video games can be fun and can be done by everyone because of its greatness now people must have a personal cellphone and I think the cellphone they have can be used to play games, besides playing games there are also other things like watching movies and there are many other things that can be done, gambling is not the only solution to fill their lonely time, because in my opinion it is also not recommended that they are lonely to take action to gamble with the excuse of relieving loneliness.

Maybe they can do gambling but with a note of discipline, because if they do gambling with no discipline in the sense that they do gambling excessively then it can bring problems for themselves in the future, because the impact of gambling is also rarely avoidable. So don't make gambling a solution to loneliness or boredom.
The digital age has given us many entertainment options. Games are about stories, obstacles, and sometimes social contact, making them a colourful escape. How amazing that games can foster camaraderie and accomplishment? Remember, we're wired for connection. Cinema is also an investigation of other planets and lives. So, empathy and understanding? Not only distractions, these possibilities enrich our emotional environment.

You're right about gambling. Disciplined gambling can be fun, but the slope is steep. Isn't it easy to try betting for emotional relief? Addiction can quickly follow thrills. Being self-aware and setting boundaries is vital. Does the habit control us, or do we? In addition to avoiding troubles, we should choose activities that nourish us. I applaud your mindful leisure attitude. Doesn't living include finding delight in ways that raise us?

people who have a good mindset, when they are lonely they will do positive things like watching movies or playing games and it is better for them to have direct contact with their friends or family. escape when lonely by playing games is not a problem, by playing games they can make new friends if they play online-based games, this can also reduce the risk of loss if they do gambling. with the number of online games today and various kinds of genres that can also be played, they can just download and play it and also this does not drain their pockets.

Instead of gambling which could drain their pockets not to mention other risks, the pleasure of each person is different and it cannot be about, so I don't mind those whose pleasure is in gambling, it's just that I hope they have limits and a level of awareness, I mean don't let gambling control our thoughts which could be detrimental to yourself.
