RE: Why is Gambling Addictive?

The pschology of addiction is truly fascinating. It really hijacks our brains and drives us towards unproductive behaviors. It's a bit strange that risk is so thrilling, but it is and it's part of our human nature. I'm sure this gave our species a huge evolutionary advantage back in the day and allowed us to spread an conquer the globe, but now some of us are facing some unforseen consequences of that getting engrained in us.

yes it is a very interesting topic
it's like part of the subconscious is fighting against itself

Absolutely, very well put!
