Addiction generally interferes with a person's natural cognition. A common belief people have in gambling is that they can recover their money faster if they lose, if they spend more than they can get all their money back. Even if they lose, their confidence is not shaken. But if they can easily accept gambling without thinking about anything like this, especially gambling losses then they will not get addicted easily. He will understand that this is a normal. But for those who are not ready to lose, gambling becomes addictive at some point. Gambling can never be a platform for making money. Those who refuse to accept this fact become addicted to gambling.
Before even going into gambling, a gambler is meant to be prepared for whatever will come in, especially the losses. This is because the losses are inevitable and will always come, because the odds are always in favor of the house at all time, so not preparing for the losses could result to chasing losses when a gambler starts losing in order to recover the lost money, but by preparing for the losses, you’ll be able to realize that the losses are inevitably part of the game and when the losses eventually comes, you’ll not feel emotionally about it or let it compel you into making impulsive decisions. This way, it’ll be a lot more easier for gamblers to avoid falling into gambling addiction.
