Perhaps a good cure for continuing the marathon of losses in gambling is an internal and deep understanding of the fact that, no matter how you continue to play, you will face losses, it will definitely happen at some point.

I don't think gamblers are new to this though, not even in their worst situation. It just seems as if a force beyond their control keeps pushing them that they can either gain more or recover back their lost money. That's why they keep playing and losing until they are ruined. And that's why I don't see that as a cure, the fire to back it up in them by retraining them is no more there. The sure way to avoid issues at this point is for them to stop gambling immediately. They may now decide to proceed after a break of days, weeks or longer.

I remember when I was very active gambling, I lost a lot of money and to recover back from those losses I tried to gamble more, there was a night I lost around $50 to sports bet, and in other to meet up with thos losses I doubled the amount on a match I thought was going to be a sure winning for me, but surprisingly I was wrong and I ended up losing the total amount of
$150 in one night, so yes what you said is right, gamblers lose more when they try to recover from their previous losses and this leads to addiction in the long run if you keep chasing the losses or winnings, so it goes in both ways and players need to be careful with all of that to stay safe and responsible while gambling.

The only good way to cut that shit, is to just after the lose start to realize how much things you can buy with the money you losem and how much you can buy if you dont gamble more money to recover that lose. So in that way the mind can stop you more easily.

Spoiler: Its not gonna be an easy task anyways.
