The title said it already, some people argue that they are just gambling for fun and that they don't gambling because they want to make money from gambling but sometimes people that makes such kinds of statement still get addicted to gambling. Is it normal?
Someone becomes addicted to gambling not always because they can win, This can happen because they always spend their time gambling, In fact, usually someone who makes gambling just to find pleasure because they enjoy the tension in it when betting. This can be said to be normal but only aimed at certain people to those who are sufficient in terms of economy
A kind or type of winning, and mode as well can actually promote or encourage a person into gambling more often than normal, which also can lead the person into becoming addicted to gambling if he or she isn't paying attention to the changes in his or her preferences and draw him or her self back.
This is something we have discussed before on this board on several different topics, to better make you understand what I mean, someone who is new to gambling winning a good sum on the first or second day of him gambling stand a high risk of becoming addicted to it because, first of all, that win is going to create a false impression on him that winning and making money from gambling is easy, or that he is the lucky type and that gambling is the way for him to make alot of money, this is going to push him to continue to gamble even more aggressively than he started off with, even when faced with long losing streak, he Simply will assume it's normal and that things will turn around soon.
For such a person, it will take having someone to guide them to help them from getting to that level where gambling becomes a major part of their life.
