If a person has negative feelings because he can not spend a week without gambling, then he clearly already has a gambling addiction and if he does not fight this compulsive desire, it is very likely that it will only lead to the strengthening of gambling addiction. I think that everyone understands that this is not the best choice that can eventually lead to problems with finances and psychological health. Of course, each of us decides how often to play, but I advise you to listen to my opinion on this matter.
If one has self-realised that he's addicted to gambling, it is good to limit himself or share his thoughts with a person close to him. This could keep him under monitor, and some might keep their thoughts away through other discussion and taking them out of lonely time. Most of the time when people feel lonely, they don't know what to do, and these activities too had made more people get addicted. As said, how often to play and how much needs to be spent must be planned, and we should have the ability to stand within the set limit.
