If you are afraid that your gambling habit cannot be controlled, you need someone to remind you of this because after experiencing an addiction to gambling and you cannot control yourself from gambling, of course this will make you experience financial problems which can make you unable to fulfill your needs. about the needs you need and this really depends on a person's personality, but people who don't want their gambling habits to be known by other people certainly have different reasons to what you have mentioned.
That is true, but sometime when someone is a gambler they will definitely close themselve a little and keep it a secret that they are a gambler except from some friends who do the same activity especially we know that sometimes in some areas gambling is still considered taboo and the stigma is still considered bad for some people so keeping it a secret is the best situation so as not to be considered negative.
This is what actually backfires because we should try to rely on ourselves as much as possible to control our gambling activities because after all this is a situation that must be felt if the secrecy of the gambling we do wants to remain safe .
Although in the end it is not wrong if we really want to gamble but still as long as gambling is considered bad and even something that is considered despicable such things cannot be minimized apart from us who must be able to limit it.
