If a person who is addicted to gambling realizes that he is addicted to gambling and he should come out of this addiction but he tries to come out and if he has 100% effort then surely he can come out of this addiction.
I have yet to see anyone who was able to get out of gambling addiction. Gamblers get out of gambling when they are in too much debt and don't have enough money to gamble. Only then do they take a break from gambling.
I think gambling addiction is one of the worst habits because every gambler gradually gets themselves addicted to gambling in such a way that they think of earning money from it to support their family i.e. they take it as their goal. Then their greed increases. As the greed increases, they become more addicted and can't get out easily. Gamblers who gamble should plan their gambling because they should remember that luck can never be changed from gambling.
It is difficult to realizes that someone become addicted to gambling.
If he can realizes about his gambling addiction and must cure it, he will do that without takes too long because he know that will gives him more problem. Before all problem comes to him, he will ask for a help from people around him to brought him to rehabilitation and cure his gambling addiction. But maybe that will not many people who can do that when they gets addicted to gambling because mostly, they will not realizes that they are addicted to gambling and needs help.
If they use gambling as a hobby, that will slowly change their gambling habit and will gives them addicted without they know. He can feels nothing is change with him but other people who see what he do will say that there is something bad happens to him. He will be lucky if people around him see what he do so they will immediately helps him and drag him out from gambling. They will stops their gambling habit by asking him to do other things and will always besides him until he gets cure.
