Yes, if the person enters the gambling area because he just wants to have fun to entertain himself, I don't think that's a problem as long as he consistently maintains good control, and if this is done well then I think it's not a problem. his behavior will change for the worse, but he will gain happiness. for the fun he had.
That's right, if someone pays attention to us by advising us to behave well, it would be good for us to consider this carefully and not reject the advice so as not to create a misunderstanding in a friendly relationship.

Yes, it's not a problem if he uses gambling for having fun but if he can't control himself while he playing gambling, sooner or later he will get a problem and his behavior will change following the result he gets. Many gamblers already change their behavior because of the results and that's impacts to people around them. When they win or lose, they can over reacted without thinking about the other people. That's why we must controls ourselves when we playing gambling so we don't give any impact to people around us, especially our family because they don't deserves for that. We can only use gambling for have fun and not because of the other reasons.

Sure, gambling can be exciting for a lot of folks. Including me. The chance of winning gives a rush. But we always gotta think - is the fun worth the harm it can cause? Gambling ain't a game like football with cheering crowds and it can hurt people badly, financially and psychologically. If you are not ready for that, you can always find safer ways to get your joy that don't put everything at stake.

This explains why only a select few people are able to control their emotions when they bet. While the thrill of gambling might be seductive, it's important to recognize the possible risks involved and take precautions to bet sensibly. In other words, gambling can result in financial losses similar to what the OP has experienced, and he may be disappointed if he simply bets without winning. Because of the stress of losing money and the inability to control our gambling impulses, it can also have an adverse effect on our mental health. For this reason, I believe that protecting our mental health should come first when it comes to gambling.
