I've never been addicted to gambling and will never be addicted, and as someone who has never been addicted before to gambling, I really don't have any idea how it feels, but I've been addicted to other stuff outside gambling and know very well that addiction is a very bad sickness which when it grips you, leaving and getting free is major challenge.

My advice to gamblers would be to always be very careful and avoid addiction at all cost, you may not know when it's coming but the best way to be on guide is to be self conscious, monitor yourself well to know when you are already spending more time on gambling than normal, when you notice such, take break from gambling for a while so your brain lose that grip and focus on something else, excessive gambling for a long while is what often leads to addiction.
