Many people enter gambling seeking quick wealth, but is the problem just money? What really holds us back is the illusion of control and the expectation of instant rewards, isn't it?
Add to this the pleasure of winning, euphoria and a sense of superiority (after all, others didn’t win).
Here are some points to reflect on:
- Greed isn't just financial: it's the desire for victory, excitement, and status.
Right on target. Neurotransmitters like dopamine are responsible for this greed.
- To what extent is gambling fun, and when does it become a way to escape reality?
As soon as you press the button for the first time, at that moment you "leave" reality and all your actions take place in the virtual casino environment until the end of the deposit (or receipt of winnings).
- Can we learn something about ourselves through risk and the decision to gamble?
How far can you go... into a pit of debt.
In other words, these are points that make us reflect, but until now, while I was reflecting, a question came to mind:
Is it possible to have a healthy relationship with gambling, or does it always awaken something dangerous within us?
It seems to me that gambling, like alcohol, will always be on a fine line and if you stumble slightly, you will be pulled down to the very bottom. Therefore, it is always worth remembering the danger of awakening those qualities of yours that will bring you closer to this bottom.
