When was the last time in your life when you saw gambling addicted person? Or have anyone of you ever seen such people? I see a lot of people talk about addicted people, but all they know about them is from reading articles or someone has told them. I have also read about ludomania, but in person never ever seen addicted people. Or maybe from first look it is impossible to tell if person is addicted. I have only see drunk people near offline casinos. But I doubt that they were addicted gamblers.
Until now I still see people addicted to gambling, even though I don't ask directly continuously but I know how he behaves towards gambling, there is even news from his friends or family that his money always runs out in gambling games that he gets after working for a whole month, meaning that until now there are still people addicted without seeing the news in the article.
This is not a little even a lot from our circle, it's just that they always cover it up by saying they don't gamble every day, it's just an excuse because gambling is now more easily accessible without many people knowing.
Addicted gamblers are seen across every neighborhood where gambling shops or casinos exist. They share almost similar stranded looks, when trying to seek for financial help. I've also watched players change from addiction to not gambling at all. Although, some gamblers whom I know bet on video games, and they're addicted to doing this, however, they sometimes tend to stop. In addition, most experiences were read online, because associating with addicts isn't something I'd pick as a hobby or thing I like doing. Unless the player reaches out for help on ways to stop being addicted, then I could be of help. Some addicts in our neighborhood, while growing up were so buried in addiction that their family had to disclose the problem to a wider range of listeners. Yet those moves never made any changes on the player, they still try as much as possible to continue player, regardless of what people think about them in the society.
