Addiction is a disease that people who suffer from it rarely realize they are addicted to. Most of the time, people are playing for fun. It turns out that they are people who have problems in the real world. To hide from society and their problems, they start to look at gambling as their only source of entertainment.

They spend more hours playing than interacting with other people in the real world. As a result, they become addicted to gambling and can no longer stop playing. Everything gets worse because, since they do not interact with other people, it takes time to discover that they are addicted and to give them the necessary care to cure themselves.

They are not aware of their addiction, but when their closest people try to make them aware, it only makes them angry and offended. Without a good enough approach, it is very difficult to be able to make someone who is addicted to gambling aware, everything will only end in vain and arguments. They are too busy with their gambling that they ignore the people around them, even their own family.

This is crucial when deciding what to do next. When we accept defeat, it also means that we will have to move on from what we lost. Accept that there's no getting it back, do not use the RTP feature as a means to get back what you had lost, because there's a chance that it won't even happen in the short run or until we deplete another set of deposits.

When we think of gambling as entertainment, let us be sure that we are enjoying the game even if we lose whatever amount we are ready to lose. If we are stressed after a defeat, I don't think that's entertainment.

It is hard to forget if someone gambles beyond their financial ability, beyond the amount of money they are ready to lose, especially if they gamble using borrowed money, or money that should be used for something more important. Which in the end makes them gamble blindly, sinking deeper into the endless gambling cycle. And at that point a person no longer views gambling as entertainment but a necessity.
