Are you usually an anxious person? I wonder if being anxious makes you more susceptible to being addicted to gambling or no?
If you are always worrying, would you not be able to take risks as confidently as others? Won't you just stay in your safe zone and miss out on opportunities that could have given you bigger wins? Or maybe some people tend to forget about their anxiety from gambling because their mind gets so numb playing?
Has gambling treated your anxiety or has it made it worse?
Anxiety can simply be referred as the feeling of fear or worry in it's general context, and as such, gambling is not a remedy to any form of anxiety. Because a person who is always worried before gambling, will still continue worrying even after gambling. Hence, it is never a solution to fear or worry. However, for a gambler to be worried or fear while gambling, then it practically simply means there must be certain factors that could have triggered such behavior in the gambler, because people don't just fear for nothing, of which I'm pretty much sure that this can only happen when a gambler borrows money to gambler and now been worried about the fear of losing his/her money? Or maybe he gambler an amount he can't afford to lose, and start getting worried .
