Can't say I blame people for hiding their gambling problem sometimes. Addiction is really tough to deal with and a lot of families may just not understand what someone is going through, their first reaction might be anger or judgement rather than support. And that's the last thing someone needs when they're already in a vulnerable place. It's an illness, not something someone chooses.
As long as the person is aware there is help available if they want it someday and they are making a real effort to cut back or control their gambling, then maybe hiding it for now isn't the end of the world.
The most important thing is them knowing they don't have to go through it alone forever. Even if hiding is easier short term, I hope anyone struggling finds the courage to open up one day.
What's your thought on this?

I honestly advise against hiding a gambling problem. Hiding a gambling problem can make it worse, as it prevents individuals from receiving the necessary support and treatment to overcome the addiction.

You are right, hiding any problem rarely makes it better, but it has to be told to the right people that can actually help and not just anyone. Addiction is a serious problem and not something to be ashamed of, but telling everyone risks unnecessary embarrassment or other troubles if they can't or won't give proper support. The most important thing is finding people you can trust to understand your struggles, keep private matters private, and help connect you with real solutions instead of just talking about it.

I also feel Seeking help and support from the right people who can offer effective solutions is key to overcoming addiction. It's important to break the stigma surrounding addiction and openly talk about it, while also being mindful of who we confide in. Thank you for sharing your insight!

If you are confident of resolving the gambling issue you face on your own , or by seeking help form counselling , then it's always best not to reveal anything about your gambling problems to family or anyone. You should have that will power to solve problems on your own and not involve anyone in the process but all it does is negative picture of you in front of society and family , since gambling is considered sin or not a good activity generally.

I think it is important to have the willpower to seek out help and work on resolving gambling problems, it can also be incredibly beneficial to share your struggles with trusted individuals who can offer support and guidance.

Probably not with the loved ones or family members because it can significantly break their trust. Sharing the concerns with gambling counselors is the better way to approach this problem , according to me.

Also I do not think that hiding any addiction especially gambling addiction is a wise decision to make. Problem shared they say is half solved. So people should be bold enough to share and disclose their current status so that people would know how to assist and render them help. There are professional who are always ready to give them help..

Because people generally when seeing someone spending their money on gambling if he is a loser they will blame you and if you are a winner they want that you pay their bills like if he drinks a coffee and you pay its price or give them funds, there is no one how could act in good way in these situations.

People think that gambling is like your bank transactions that you must not share with everyone or anyone else while it is not the case. Bank transactions are not all about gambling and predict something not predictable in advance, they could be purchase from retail store or for electronic banks to pay for a service either fiat currency or payment processor or crypto, while gambling are funds spent on this concern to gamble on events to may possible win something, so you need to differ between this and this.
