@OP, what is the difference between gambling fever and gambling addiction? From your post, I don't see any difference or any unique difference of things that have been discussed here before as a causes of addiction and how to prevent it. Both are too similar, if not the same.

I was going to ask the same thing. I guess the fever is shorter while the addiction is more so permanent? I'm not entirely sure but this is surely something that happens to a lot of people.

Nah, shorter or permanent, whatever you call it, it’s the same. For me, the gambling fever and gambling addiction that OP mentioned are the same. Those symptoms, the things you do, etc., you’ll experience all of that if you’re addicted to gambling. Maybe OP just came up with another term and thought there’s a difference, but nah, they’re really the same. If you can’t deal with what was mentioned, you’ll just dig deeper. I've been there.
