I play poker online often, but I'm not addicted to it. I can control myself, and when I take a break, it's more enjoyable to go back to playing. My mind seems to be more open to logical reasoning after I stop playing for a while and then go back to playing. I think this is a healthier way for me.

It used to be an addiction for me. About 7 years ago I reached a point where I was spending and borrowing money I didn't have. I would stop eating to gamble, and my return was 30% of what I invested, so my numbers were in the red. Thank God I stopped betting so much because of Covid, since I couldn't go out and the internet was too intermittent to play online. Today, thank God, I only bet extra money that I earned.

I says like my alcoholic neighbour: I can stop anytime if I will, but I don't want to.

Yes, I am a bit addicted to poker, I spend a lot of time playing poker and my social networks have a lot of poker videos or card games, but on the other hand poker is the only “vice” I have, I don't like a lot of things unfortunately

I do not think I am addicted to poker. When I want to do something else, I do not feel discomfort. There are many interesting things besides poker.

If i'm losing money and not having fun I don't play. so I would say no it's not additive. just don't tilt!
