Everyone deserves a second chance if their actions haven't caused irreparable harm to anyone. A gambler with an addiction can not only get a second chance but also change their life for the better—completely kick the gambling habit and never go back to gambling for the rest of their life. Of course, it is not easy to do this alone, but fortunately, there are people who provide professional help and people who have faced the same problem, got rid of it, and now help others for free. Communities dedicated to combating gambling addiction exist almost everywhere. You just need to find them and ask for help.

It will not be easy, but I do agree that everyone has a second chance to redeem themself from gambling addiction.

It's not like it's a disease that is incurable. It's just a mental illness that can be repaired in different ways. Switching to a new hobby, getting busy with something else, asking for help from a specialist, or just being with the family and simply avoiding gambling. It can be done by strengthening the mental state of a person, and I can tell because I was almost on the brink of being an addicted gambler, because of chasing the losses.
Thankfully, I think very hard about what gambling is destroying my life, and that's when I realized that I should be in control of it and not the other way around.
