When I read an article about a gambler with addiction, I noticed that he often mentioned that when he started to accumulate debts among friends, and loans from banks, he began to eat worse, stopped buying new clothes. He began to live in the Syndrome of Deferred Life. What kind of syndrome is this?
Deferred life syndrome - is a psychological condition in which a person constantly postpones a full life, happiness and satisfaction of their needs to an indefinite future.
Do you think problem gamblers can save on themselves to start living in the "bright future" they hope for after a big win at the casino?
The same goes for problem bettors and sports betting.
The first rule of happiness in gambling is lower expectations, people with gambling addiction and high expectations are very common, everything they do, they are steps ahead and always after what they can get and when this doesn't comes, their life becomes a problem. It's really wild to see a gambler expecting money wager to buy a dream car, sometimes people want to live good life if the money they are expecting comes from gambling and I really wonder, if that magic is that easy, I'm very sure everyone will be so wealthy that we are going to be so tired of winning.
