Avoid gambling always, anyone can pratice self control for a day I believe while maintaining the same energy choosing not to gamble till they’re set can prevent an addict still it’s difficult convincing an addict to change. For a while now the major topic here talks about addiction often and I see different nice opinion shared yet it’s never helpful or they never bother to share their experience although we’ll never know how all this has impacted an addictive gambler. Honestly staying free from gambling forever is not the aim rather getting addicted should be avoided as always, gambling frequent doesn’t guarantee winning that’s what many fail to understand instead always take a break to avoid bad emotions.
I think some people are able to simply gamble for a bit and then continue with their lives.
Not everyone will end up as an addicted gambler, so there's no need to have absolutes like that.
I do agree that for some people the best thing they can do is to actually never gamble, but that doesn't apply to everyone.
Many people use gambling and alcohol as an escape from all the problems and tensions in their lives, but when they try to find solace in gambling, sometimes they will get stuck in it, so I think when they are already involved further in addiction then there is no effective and easy solution to get them out of the circle, so it is very important not to get involved at all if we do not have strong control and control over our desires including gambling, in my opinion, it is better to avoid as a preventive option than we do rehabilitation for those who are addicted.
