Stay away from gambling so that you avoid poverty and destruction

In last few weeks in my country, a national online gambling raid has been carried out simultaneously in all areas under jurisdiction of police of Republic of Indonesia. Online gambling raids carried out by police resulted in many gamblers being caught.

This is done because online gambling has consumed many victims, many online gamblers have gone bankrupt and eventually become stressed and experience mental disorders.

Gambling and mental health are interconnected, this gambling addiction has a bad impact not only on financial problems, but also on mental health. Gambling and mental health are two things that can not be separated. A person who is addicted to gambling will experience psychological and social disorders. In addition to harming yourself, gambling also harms others.

Gambling addiction can make a person experience an uncontrollable urge to continue gambling. Gambling means being willing to risk everything he has in the hope of getting a big profit. Impact of this gambling addiction is one of them sacrificing everything that is owned, not even reluctant to accumulate debt. This not only affects financial problems, but also mental health.

This is also known as a gambling disorder, which is a person who experiences the condition of wanting to continue gambling. This disorder is very dangerous if it continues because gambling addicts will take advantage of various ways to be able to play gambling. Gambling addiction becomes a problem when it cannot be controlled and interferes with finances, work, and mental health. Gamblers may not realize that they have a problem for the future.

Over time this gambling addiction can lead to behavioral changes. This can be seen from experiencing a traumatic retirement, work-related stress, and emotional upheaval such as depression or excessive anxiety. In addition, other triggers can be seen in some gamblers who may also have problems with alcohol or drug use.

While there is no surefire way to prevent this gambling addiction problem, there are many programs developed by the government and police to help individuals and groups who are at high risk.

Begin to consider avoiding gambling of any kind, the people who gamble, and the places where gambling occurs. Get treatment at the earliest sign of trouble to help prevent gambling from getting worse. I still remember the song by Rhoma Irama which mentions that gambling is the beginning of destruction and poverty.

So, stay away from gambling in any form so that you avoid destruction!
