Having a gambling addiction can hurt more than the addict. My wife had a good friend that had a sister who had a gambling addiction so bad she lost her business, house, and family. It got to be so bad she acted as a lookout for someone who attempted to break into our house. Fortunately, I had the window setup where you cannot open it or lift it out of frame from the outside.

I think we, who struggle with this, and GA need to push our elected representatives to recognize that compulsive gambling is an addiction as dangerous as being a drug addict and/or alcoholic. The resources for gambling addicts are limited. Insurance companies don't even recognize it as a disease, yet gambling affects the brain the same way it does drug addicts and alcoholics. We need to take a stand. We can hide the gambling addiction, unlike drug addicts and alcoholics, which somehow makes us not worthy of professional help.

Brains are highjacked by gambling. It’s the repeated dopamine hits….as much as hundreds per hour. Brain scans show this. Nobody wants to be a problem gambler. By the time someone realizes or can admit the problem, they are likely in deep. It’s a lifetime disease. But there IS recovery for those who truly are ready. For those who say, “just don’t go” - would be wonderful if it was that simplistic a solution. Ongoing support is needed. And the problem is getting worse & worse thx to Smartphone gambling and legalized sports betting. Our youngest legal gamblers are paying the price AND it’s a family disease. Nobody is really immune from being affected.

Betting with bookies in the old days could get dangerous. Because you could bet with money you don’t have. Only had to worry about it if you lost. Nowadays betting online you first have to have the money in an account before betting. So legalizing sports betting actually is a good thing. Helps people from getting in over their head.
@davewilson7255
Жыл бұрын
That is far from the truth. An addict will always chase the bet and sometimes it's about being in the action and it's not about winning. It ultimately ends the same way whether using bookies or legal sports betting online: prison, insanity, death, loss of family, loss of self, loss of job, loss of family.

If you’re gambling $50, that $50 should be mentally treated as a write-off or a mere “amusement fee”. But if you happen to win say $136 in the process and would like more fun, then you should treat $100 of that amount as the “floor” and gamble with only $36. If you get to say $172, then $150 becomes the floor and $22 is expendable. That way you’d crystallise your progressive windfall and walk away with net win everytime, or at most you’ve limit your loss to only $50 (assuming you don’t do it too often). And for the love of god if that $50 is for rent then please pay rent because you have exactly $0.00 for gambling.

I've never heard of such relax gambling laws. I'm Texas and we only have state lottery. Casino are outlawed with the exception of two tribal casinos. My state pushes back in full fledged casinos because of the states conservative culture. People drive out of state to play legally

I know gambling. They want to win only so they can lose more.
I think we, who struggle with this, and GA need to push our elected representatives to recognize that compulsive gambling is an addiction as dangerous as being a drug addict and/or alcoholic. The resources for gambling addicts are limited. Insurance companies don't even recognize it as a disease, yet gambling affects the brain the same way it does drug addicts and alcoholics. We need to take a stand. We can hide the gambling addiction, unlike drug addicts and alcoholics, which somehow makes us not worthy of professional help.

Brains are highjacked by gambling. It’s the repeated dopamine hits….as much as hundreds per hour. Brain scans show this. Nobody wants to be a problem gambler. By the time someone realizes or can admit the problem, they are likely in deep. It’s a lifetime disease. But there IS recovery for those who truly are ready. For those who say, “just don’t go” - would be wonderful if it was that simplistic a solution. Ongoing support is needed. And the problem is getting worse & worse thx to Smartphone gambling and legalized sports betting. Our youngest legal gamblers are paying the price AND it’s a family disease. Nobody is really immune from being affected.

Good short but unfortunately in the USA free rehab services for drug and alcohol addiction are marginal at best and for gambling addiction practically non existent. Gambling addiction is a total bitch - doesn't just kill you outright like other addictions, destroys your finances, relationships and hope for the future on and on - insidious

Betting with bookies in the old days could get dangerous. Because you could bet with money you don’t have. Only had to worry about it if you lost. Nowadays betting online you first have to have the money in an account before betting. So legalizing sports betting actually is a good thing. Helps people from getting in over their head.
@davewilson7255

That is far from the truth. An addict will always chase the bet and sometimes it's about being in the action and it's not about winning. It ultimately ends the same way whether using bookies or legal sports betting online: prison, insanity, death, loss of family, loss of self, loss of job, loss of family.

@@MountainsArePretty1234 true, if he did, he wouldn't be call an addict anymore.
If you’re gambling $50, that $50 should be mentally treated as a write-off or a mere “amusement fee”. But if you happen to win say $136 in the process and would like more fun, then you should treat $100 of that amount as the “floor” and gamble with only $36. If you get to say $172, then $150 becomes the floor and $22 is expendable. That way you’d crystallise your progressive windfall and walk away with net win everytime, or at most you’ve limit your loss to only $50 (assuming you don’t do it too often). And for the love of god if that $50 is for rent then please pay rent because you have exactly $0.00 for gambling.
