It is crucial that we speak with them at the beginning so that they are aware of our activities and the kinds of vices or hobbies we indulge in. After all, there are no secrets that should remain hidden. We shall know what will happen at the end, which is why there are always regrets. What will happen when we cross our boundaries and engage in undesirable behavior, such as getting debt from gambling, because we will become used to it? Even when we bring problems to ourselves, our family and loved ones are the ones who support us and help us find solutions. Sometimes, they even become involved as a result of our careless and dumb behavior.
This is the main reason I would never advise anyone to be ever ashamed, scared or for any other reasons keep any habits a secret especially gambling because when the state of addiction, desperation or any gambling bad habits is popping in, we can't see it earlier but others do.
Also I can't hide anything I love just because of Fear or being scared of speaking about it to those around me
So it's better to just keep it a secret, if you're afraid you won't be able to control your gambling, therefore it's important for you to gamble responsibly so you can be independent and don't need to ask for advice from other people. the people around you, especially family.

The point is to return to the core of the problem, this all depends on each individual and we cannot apply all of people's advice to ourselves. Until now my gambling activities have been very secretive, no one knows except online friends who gamble together.
I kind of disagree with you on this one, though, because it seems unbearable that you are unable to listen to the advice of others—after all, you can never tell when you are developing a gambling addiction. Because you occasionally lose consciousness when playing because you are enjoying the game, it might be challenging to determine whether you are a responsible gambler. It is completely fine to be open and honest with your family about your gambling habits, so they can help you avoid becoming addicted to gambling. If you hide your gambling activities, you hinder and prevent other people from offering you advice and support, which could be beneficial to you personally. If you hide your gambling, you can miss out on important support systems and chances for help if your behavior gets out of control.
