And within myself, I am still wondering, what could possibly lead a person back to gambling after successfully quitting initially? Know well the reason for initially quitting was addiction, does it make sense to go back to gambling and become even more addicted?
Curiosity can bring someone back to gambling, even after they've stopped. Just trying it once more can easily pull them back into full addiction, returning them to their old habits. If we truly want someone to stop gambling, we need to support them because breaking free from an addiction is incredibly hard. Many people relapse, whether it's with gambling, smoking, drugs, or other addictive behaviors. I've seen this happen in many cases.
