When someone cannot control their emotions in gambling then they become very addicted to it. While gambling you should remember that it is only for your pleasure never consider it as a means of earning money. Gamble with what you can afford to lose, never gamble with what you cannot afford to lose. When you come back there again to restore your lost money then you become very addicted. So if you consider gambling as a means of earning money then you are a real gambler, you find a way to control yourself.

Getting out of gambling depends on the individual, you can force the person to stop when he his not ready to do that.
An addictated gambler is always sure and knows what he wants, therefore he should not be forced into coming out of addiction, instead continue counseling the person and before you know it, he would start responding to the therapy.
The reason why most persons gamble is to make money and nothing more that is why you see a lot of persons start chasing their losses when they don't win and these set of persons don't set limits in time and bankroll, they are so carried away with the mentality of I must win and make money, most of them even go as far as borrowing or taking a loan to gamble and end up frustrating themselves, because they have failed to understand that gambling does not always win and it's basically for fun and when wins comes you accept it.
Gambling is basically meant for fun and not for making money.
