Recently, in a program about gambling addicts, they named the main factors that a person can become addicted to gambling. And among these factors was the factor that a person must be very stubborn and very confident in his actions, not listening to anyone and relying only on himself.
Such a gambler or bettor will endlessly listen only to his inner voice and will not listen to the advice of others. Although listening to relatives is very important.

So that inner voice could be negative, while listening to other people means we’re getting positive words? I don’t think we’ve reached that point, because even if you hear sayings like that, it doesn’t automatically mean you’ll become addicted.

Let’s say you stick to your gambling limit and you don’t quit as long as you still have your budget, that’s still within the safe zone and it still fits the definition. You’re not quitting because you still have money to play with, and that doesn’t mean you’ve lost control.
