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?
I am not sure that this person really quit, maybe he took some time off gambling but not is mind, many gamblers claimed they quit gambling but some part of their minds are still longing for gambling.
I feel that they punished themselves for quitting since the mind can't still let go, they love what they do and instead of learning how to gamble in a safer way they believe the solution is quitting.
The first quit is caused by unbearable losses and anger, later this person choose to continue hoping things will be different, it's a shame that he used a different method to try to fix gambling, something that doesn't need to be fixed but plan for.
