True, and honestly I do not understand the mindset of gamblers who force themselves to take loans just to realize their desire to gamble, and one thing I will say is that they are gamblers who come based on a misunderstanding of gambling so that they do not hesitate at all to take loans just to gamble which is actually rationally the worst decision because after all it is the same as you taking two risks at the same time, first you have to pay the loan and second when you lose it will cause significant disappointment and annoyance.
On the other hand, as you said, many gamblers who destroy their lives become even worse after they use the idea of borrowing to realize their desire to gamble and that is indeed true, in the end, in most cases the pressure of the problem of being in debt often makes gamblers take crazy decisions like ending their lives.
Addiction is the only thing that would make a gambler to take loan in order for him to chase his losses. This is because no responsible gambler will take gambling as his priority to the point of borrowing funds to gamble when you know that the chance of you losing that money is higher than doubling it. You are not to gamble when you don't have extra funds that you can afford to lose, so that it doesn't affect you emotionally, mentally and financially.
Yes, I am sure that what you said is true, which is addiction that triggers various aggressive actions such as borrowing money or even other crazier actions such as stealing or robbing, and of course they are definitely irresponsible gamblers and this is usually caused by gamblers who from the start misunderstood what and how gambling really is, most likely they are too tempted by the name of victory or the chance of victory that makes them interested in getting involved in gambling.
Some general advice that is often said by others such as gambling with the amount of money you can afford to lose, we can actually conclude that gambling is recommended to be done with mature self-preparation to face defeat, and when it turns out that you force yourself to gamble with the funds borrowed, it means that you can conclude that you have deviated from various advice that leads to prevention.
