Gambling addiction is a bad habit that should be eradicated. It should not be encouraged at all.
Addiction causes the victims not to be able to control himself from gambling. He is unable to have financial discipline to control himself. He do not know how to set budgets on amount to be spent on either loss or win.
Gamblers who are addicted stand the risk of becoming wretched because of his lack of self control in his betting.

Gambling addicts are hard to stop, and the only person who can stop them is their wives because they will let them choose family or gambling. The wives must also help their husbands get back on their feet.

Those gambling addicts are not smart. They failed to assess and analyze their bad debts and situations and ended up homeless. They lack common sense. They better forced themselves to live a new life. The control is within them.

The only key factor is the strong will to stop. If they do not have the will to change, it is so useless to keep on asking the to quit gambling.

I think the gambling habits can be stopped by one engaging in other constructive activities that brings in value to the person or the society at large. Being occupied with lots of activities by the person also minimises the addiction.

I agree with you on that. Self discipline is the real thing gambling addict may have for them to reduce the urge or quit gambling completely. I hope that helps.

It's difficult to quit once you are addicted to gambling. One of my uncles got so addicted to gambling that he got divorced, went bankrupt. I think one really needs a strong will to stop gambling addiction. Support and encouragement by family are also important.

I don't even understand how people get addicted to all these things that take money away from them. Anyone that works hard and values his or her business would desist from this habit.

People get addicted to gambling as a result of becoming rich overnight. Gambling is so seductive in nature. It would continuing tempting the victim until he loses all his hard earned money.
Not satisfactory enough, he would still convinced that to try his luck more for him to win his losses back. As '' quitter don't win and winner don't quit'' they alleged.

Addiction to gambling, just like any other addiction and can be stopped by embracing other interests which may be spending time with positive people and try to avoid friends who gamble as they are bad influence to your growth.

Stopping anyone with a gambling addiction is not easy and can only be done if the person with the addiction realizes that they have a gambling addiction and wants help to stop.

Sometimes people who have a gambling addiction tend to ignore that they have an issue and until they come to terms with the fact they have a problem, no one can help them.

Until they can help themselves they instead end up being a lost cause.

I started gambling and won my first two bets. But when I lost the next five bets straight, no one advised me to stop. I think gambling is for those that don't have financial intelligence.

If you don't recognize the fact that money can only be earned when one offers value, that is when you would take gambling as a profession to earn money whereas it has no value it offers.

Someone once said the best and probably one of the most effective ways to overcome an addiction is to find a new addiction. So if you want to overcome gambling, look for something else to get addicted with.
