I myself have never experienced a gambling addiction, as I haven't been involved in the gambling world for long. My first time gambling was in early 2025, and so far, my gambling has been smooth sailing without any negative impact on my life.
I've never experienced a gambling addiction, but from my understanding, "You don't have to fall to feel the pain of falling." Similarly, with gambling addiction, we don't need to experience addiction to understand its harmful effects. Gambling addiction is a significant problem and quite difficult to find a solution to, because once someone is addicted, the problem becomes more complex. We have witnessed the negative impacts of irresponsible gambling. Gambling addiction is more than just financial loss; it's more than that; many people have lost everything due to their gambling addiction, including careers, businesses, and even loved ones. Worse still, there have been several incidents where, after succumbing to their gambling addiction, people have even committed suicide.
These incidents serve as a reminder of the importance of gambling responsibly. Gambling is indeed about having fun, but if we seek anything other than pleasure, it will only end in regret and misery.
People addicted to gambling always feel like no one cares about them. Foolishly, instead of recognizing their addiction and working to overcome it, they seek validation that what they're doing is right. They continually chase big wins that they never achieve. They keep chasing those wins because if they succeed, they can prove that their gambling is truly profitable.
It's important to understand that when you're addicted to gambling, many people actually care about you, but you never pay attention to them. You constantly ignore those who try to raise your awareness, and you even turn against them. Therefore, when you're experiencing a gambling addiction, never close your ears and your heart. Wake up from this empty dream and start speaking up.
