If I understand what you guys are discussing about correctly, I would say it's definitely better to lock up an addicted gambler physically, lock him up in a single room with a very small window, and take away every gadget from him, no phone, no radio, no nothing, just him and his mind to wander and think 🤔
Leave him there for like a month or two, I believe that by the time he comes out, he must have had a brain that has ressetted itself.
you are sick dude.
seriously, wtf is wrong with you? you are literally suggesting torturing someone to cure him from addiction.
that's not how you help an addict, you are just turning him from a gambling addict into a mentally ill person.
in most of the world that care about human rights, if you do this to someone (whether they consent to it or not) you are going to fucking jail.
