When another addiction fuels gambling addiction.

[purple_sparkles]

People who suffer from other unhealthy addictions, such as alcohol or drugs, often lose their ability for critical thinking. This makes them more vulnerable to gambling addiction, as their perception of the world and decision-making becomes distorted, almost as if their mind turns to jelly. Additionally, they often have more time for foolishness, which only exacerbates the problem.

As for me it is the main thing in all kinds of addictions. When you are busy with something interesting, you have no time to make different silly things. I noticed it when i was smoking more than 30 cigarettes per day. When i worked on some interesting project - i didn`t make pause to smoke, i even didn`t remember that i`m smoking. And of course your brains works much better when they are clean.

When it becomes difficult for someone is addicted to gambling to quit. I think its not just about quitting gambling he has to do, if he as any other thing he is addicted to he should first quit on those ones because quitting those ones might make him lose interest automatically in gambling.

A lot of the time gambling doesn’t start on its own it arises from deeper behaviors or dependencies. When someone’s already chasing highs through drinking or smoking it’s easy for gambling to slide in as another escape.

Tackling the underlying addictions first can significantly transform the thinking and help break the chain. It’s everything connected and just quitting one item without addressing the others rarely works.

Yes, you are absolutely right on what you just said above, regarding how people suffering from unhealthy addictions, could often lose their ability to think critically, which could result to his/her involvement in other vises/addiction. And as such, still on the contrary, we can not remove the fact that it can still only take an old time gambler to get carried away when he/she is under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Because if a person was never a gambler before, then, the chances of him falling for gambling related addiction will be very low. Hence, it will be best for a gamblers who wishes to quit addiction to should be ready to give up on all unhealthy practices.

The person who is serious about changing his habits needs to really find the root cause why he is being addicted into this activity. That is true, quitting one item won't do it. He should cover all angles in order for him to really address his situation. Otherwise, he is just like having a band-aid solution to his problem. And will just go back again once he feels he needs to. So learning yourself about the root causes is a very important stage in addressing your habitual problem. Otherwise, you won't really get out of that square and will continue to suffer your problems stemming from this addiction.

Unfortunately, everything you wrote is true, and I know several examples in my life of people who abused alcohol and who knows what else. They brought themselves to such a state that their personality was literally destroyed, and I'm afraid to imagine what could happen to such people if they get to gambling.
In their case, it will be impossible to talk about any kind of money management and self-control, and, most likely, their relatives and codependencies will suffer.

That's true. A person who's addicted to something that can affect himself negatively, can't think of doing an activity to improve himself. But this is not the case if a person has a willingness to change what he used to. Because even there are activities that can trigger the addiction, this is not going to influence the person if he found something to do where can he can focus on, and can divert his attention.

Yeah, it's true that addiction is always the result of another addiction, which can trigger it to go further or to extremes. If there is a problem, it can only be solved when you find its root causes and fix them, the problems will automatically end. The same is true for gambling addiction. If you want to get rid of it and do not enjoy it, then you have to find the way through which you came to the casino and developed this addiction. I highly recommend that you identify your bad addictions and stop them all at the same time. It is difficult, but it will work, and you can be free from your addiction.

What makes you think that gambling is only about time and not money? Have you ever seen a serious drug or alcohol addict have enough money to use it for something like gambling? Don't you think that a person who gets addicted to these things can't work or maintain a source of income? What makes you think such a person can afford to gamble even if they have lost their ability to think critically?

Gambling is not only about having enough time, the basic thing that we need for gambling is funds, and I don't agree that a person who is seriously addicted to either drugs or alcohol or anything like that will have any money for them to gamble and then become a gambling addict because if they don't have the ability to think critically which makes them vulnerable to addictions, then one should assume that they wouldn't have a source of income and they would probably be homeless as well since if you can't take care of yourself in this world, no one will take care of you forever, not even your blood relatives.

Addiction itself of any sort will make you unstable and any other problems of life can become your problem. Having drinking addiction will make you vulnerable to gambling addiction and you will always be out of cash which to you can be gotten back through gambling. The addiction of being successful or always wanting to win can lead you to becoming a gambling addict because when you can not win, you will keep trying and this can take countless hours which builts up into you depending on the money you are making from gambling to survive. Smoking addiction can also make you become a gambling addicts. Addicts shift from one addiction to another and some have multiple addictions at the same time which is worse

People who suffer additions on something like drugs or alcohol, it indicates he has no good self-control. Sure, he will easily get addiction in gambling as well. Besides he doesn't have critical thinking, he may also have no matured mind. If he has matured mind, he will understand the bad impacts of addictions. Matured people must be aware of the possibility of addictions, so they have few ways to prevent the additions. Meanwhile those people who have no critical thinking and no matured mind, they don't care with the impacts of addictions.

Indeed. When we are addicted to a certain thing, we may easily get addicted to another thing. Well, the basic problem is mostly about the mentality of the individual. Having unmatured mind, lack of awareness, and no self-control are few of the problem of mentality. These are the possible roots of the addiction case. That's why a gambler must be matured person to avoid the addiction problem.
