It’s great that you were able to overcome the trap of gambling addiction in the past and now sometimes play in such a way that you know in advance that you will never fall into this trap again.  This truly allows you to treat gambling as a hobby that generally provides hours of entertainment and only takes up as much money as you can afford to lose without having any major impact on your regular life.

It is always a reason to celebrate the fact that there are people who overcome gambling addiction, and that everything points to an improvement, and it is also good to bring it to the forum, especially for those players who want a reason or that hope, that if a player could overcome this, then I think that everyone is capable of overcoming it too, that is why I continue to show others that sometimes it is better to limit the money with which you are going to play in order not to fall into addiction, it will always be my advice, and playing with little money, although it may seem boring, is Preferable to falling into addiction.

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. It must be a happy moment for an addict that he has come out of gambling addiction. Basically in gambling we should keep control over ourselves and play. If we are controlled by gambling then we must understand that we are addicted to gambling. We must keep a note of how much we gambled and how much money we lost each day.

An addicted person is impossible for some gamblers to get out of gambling. Because people who have lost money and become addicted to gambling, they are more attracted to gambling to regain that money. And the addicted person may gain from gambling very little, but it is not possible to get out of gambling. Because the more you gamble the more you lose because of the addiction alone.

So only those who gamble regularly can gain from gambling, participating in gambling four days a week will make the person less addicted to gambling. Only experienced and non-addicted individuals can gain more from gambling.
I see this complicating, you claimed those who are gambling to recover their money can be addicted and still not have anything to show for it, and it's the same you who said that if one gambles regularly, they can gain from gambling, so which one do we believe? In my understanding, gambling can bless anyone and it can ruin anyone, your often participation doesn't matter, what matters is your smartness and your luck. No one can control the fate of anyone in gambling, we are only trying bees, however, it's still more feasible in sports betting to win often with almost certainty. But anyone who is gambling in a desperate way for the money or to regain back the lost money will never get to achieve their aim, except in rare cases.
Yeah, the probability of actually winning back in gambling really practically approaches zero as the player loses more and more, and as he strives to finally win and compensate for his losses.  Perhaps there are lucky cases when you get a really huge win.  But I, for example, have not heard of such cases just among ordinary players with whom I communicate.  Maybe these are the players who are written about in the newspaper as big lucky ones, but for some reason it seems to me that such winnings do not go to those players who persistently strive to win back after a series of losses that are gradually becoming larger and larger.
