If you are onto gambling for the first time it's not possible to get addicted to gambling because you haven't tasted what winning feels like, you will be consumed by doubts and uncertainty.
But wait till you have a taste, win some money, that's where you start feeling like there is more if you keep digging, is this not where gambling addiction starts?
We have had a lot of conversations about gambling addiction, but I had the same conversation with someone close yesterday and this was my answer to him.
Do you think its possible to become addicted to gambling when you haven't win a dime or after you win?
I think addiction starts after you win, even if it's just once, that's when you start gambling recklessly and you also start betting higher.
Yes, it's possible that that could be the beginning of him going or getting close to gambling addiction eventually. That is not yet felt at the beginning of a gamble. Often, even though they are addicted to gambling, it seems that they still can't accept that they are addicted to gambling.
That is why it is important for gamblers to have control over themselves. Because if you don't have it for sure when you win, you won't think of stopping playing instead, even more so when you gamble because you will feel that you can beat the banker.
I think the desire to gamble comes from seeing other gamblers win large sums of money and how easy it is for them to make money from gambling. The second thing comes from the casinos' advertising. They advertise very attractively to beginners.
If you win once, you will think it is too easy to make money on gambling, and you yourself think that gambling can be the primary source of income. And we continue to fall deeper into this spiral. Only those who have experienced it can escape this spiral. This is precisely where gambling addiction begins.
