Today i realised i am in huge huge trouble due to gambling...i just kept loosing amount in gambling quickly...decided many times to leave gambling but never happened....today i counted that i have lost almost 10 bitcoins in gambling in last 1-2 years and the amount i loose is going to keep on increasing...
  i just tried to do every thing but nothing is quiet working...what ever i earn i dont know what to do with them and in some time i loose them again...
i am realising i am in big trouble,already in huge loss what to do... :-[

In gambling discussion we all have discuss about it a lot time, but our discussion is suggestions and it work when you follow it practically. As you know you have come in this stage where you have a huge loss and you want to relieve from it. Now i give you advice but you should obey it.
Forget you past loss and now today is your new day and in this day you should control yourself to quit gambling and busy yourself in trading or other things where you find yourself busy and relax.
But personally, you can't blame your money loss of gambling, it is your mistake that you can't play gambling like a good gambler.

Following are my suggestions:

1) You can consult  a doctor for this and he will write medicines related to anxiety. These generally belong to SSRIs.

2) There are therapies where you are made to interact with past gamblers who were able to quit this by determination.

3) Finally, it is important to keep yourself busy. Try to spend more time with family or prick a hobby.

Ya the main problem is after loosing such a amount...the small amounts became close to nothing for me....and even i earn some thing like 0.1btc which is a very good amount..it seems it is nothing after loosing 10 btc so i just and keep gambling with it till i loose it again...

Pick up other hobbies or try to play online gambling games that don't require money or bitcoin. Try to get someone to hold you accountable for your gambling actions.

No one can help you except yourself, it should start from your own mind to stop gambling. Our suggestions will be useless if you have no intentions to stop. Find a good reason why you have to stop and start throw away anything related to gambling from your mind. I know it is very hard but it is not impossible if you really have good reason to stop.

+10No one can help you except yourself

The possibity that oneself could only stay away from gambling is to treat it as a form of entertainment, it is just another option you can choose from.

Find a new habit or activity outdoor you might try watching movies in a mall every weekend or every time you think you need to gamble, it will save yourself from yourself.

Strongly disagree, quitting gambling after he/she get addicted to gambling it is really though. There are many different person personalities and in my opinion, OP didn't have a strong will and faith to be able to quit gambling by him/herself. Well, the people who have a strong faith to quit gambling and successful to do it is exist but doesn't mean its apply to other peoples.

My suggestion for OP is to open your problem to your society and don't afraid to ask a help to your friend or even to hire psychotherapist. The external; help is greatly helpful.

10 BTC is a quite huge money if you have bought these coins at a current or last year market price.


Discuss with your family members first to help you out and if you think you're still not able to stop gambling by yourself then the best option for you is to consult some professionals to help you out.

If not, you need to pick up another good habit to keep you busy during your free time then you can slowly forget about gambling. If you keep visiting these sites even for few minutes every day you can't come out of it so you must stop visiting these sites completely for some time.

Why are you lying that you try everything? Did you try to not gamble for example?!
You don't know what to do, but you know how to come here and cry?! You are not in trouble due gambling, you are in trouble because of YOU! You can blame gambling or drugs, you can blame whom ever you wish, but problem is in you, sooner you figure that out, sooner you will fix your problem.
You know what you need to do, its stupid to ask something like that. If you don't know what you need to so with your money give them to someone who knows.
And advice to others, don't try to help this poor idiot because nobody can't help him. Some things in life we need to do alone, if he is so stupid to continue to lose money that he doesn't have on gambling that is his decision and his stupidity.

PS: why you came here in gambling section to cry about your gambling addiction?! Later you will go in casino to find a cure for your addiction?

First of all you realized now you are addicted to gambling then it maybe a fist step to quit gambling,you have to concentrate on the pther things which is important for you like career or the family or some other this important for you.If you still can't get out of it then medication help is necessary and it is the final option available to get away from the gambling addiction.

It's clearly only you who can help yourself, but I'll try with some advises:
1. Try to not recover that money from gambling. The chance to fail with that is very big.
2. Keep your Bitcoin in places harder to spend. An idea would be paper wallets in a safe deposit, so you can deposit more any time, but it's an effort to access them for spending.
3. Get out more, use the time to get air, maybe meet new people, find something to do way different from staying online (the farther you are from gambling, you may think twice before spending money you don't really want to)
4. If getting out doesn't work well, find another addiction - reading, computer games, movies - although some sports outside would be much better.

Can you tell what are these things you did just to quit gambling but there's no hope on those methods?

---

Terrible, this is severe addiction.

---

Don't stay on your computer for months and call someone to block those casino's you are playing with.

Keep yourself busy, think of other hobbies and find some therapy, if that really a huge amount then maybe your already addicted on it, better find other resourceful activity that will make you busy, and if you really want to come back better set your mindset on having control. Having huge loss comes from being greedy, even many will advise you, it will still up to you to get over it.

You got it. There's no one can help you out on this situation but you alone. We can give helpful suggestions and it will depend on you if you'll follow it. And that's why if you are so serious by leaving gambling you need to focus and you need discipline to yourself, without such whether there are 100 people who are stopping you but you aren't willing to help and there's no courage found on you - you will remain suffering.

No matter how you read the advises at the end it will only lead back to you, make some realization and analyze did it gives you worth or just destroy you find time to know yourselves first before you ask here if you're willing really to push leaving.

Leave any items that will remind you to gamble. If you do online gambling then better to cut your internet connection off. Find another hobby you like. Tbh, me and most of the people here can only give suggestions. It's up to you whether you will follow it or not. Only you can save your life!

what you need is actually simple, you need to quit as fast as you can but in this case, I think you need other people to help you to not even think about gambling only. you need to create another activity with other people that will help you so you don't have to feel that you are alone. losing 10 bitcoins in gambling is a big amount and not just for you and you need to leave the gambling games. try to leave your computer and do other things and I hope you can quit from gambling.

Really bad advice there, it's pretty clear that OP cannot help himself, otherwise he wouldn't be in this mess to begin with.
OP needs professional help, find yourself a good therapist, preferably one who has experience with gambling addiction.

You might say that it's too expensive, but if you have spent 10 BTC in the last 2 years, then you can also afford a therapist.

You can't fix this alone OP, get help

There are people who don't know what to do and only need some piece of advice but its up to him if he'll listen to us and besides this is also my guess that he needs this

It will be costly to find a professional therapist or psychiatrist but its going to help you save more money once you're done overcoming your gambling addiction.

Have you tried to talk with a professional ? I mean you already know you can't handle it by yourself, what about ask on your friends and family for professional help ?

If you have a hard time quitting gambling, I believe it is best if you see a specialist and try to consult your problem.  We all can say something here but I believe seeing a specialist will greatly help you to at least calm down your gambling addiction.  Aside from that, you should be very determined to stop, after all it is yourself that can play a major role on what you wanted to do with your gambling habit.

I am willingly telling you and saying it to you properly that no one ca tell you or someone tells you that follow their instructions to stop you from being addicted in gambling because it is so very far from you who gamble and seriously experiencing that you would have to stop gambling in your whole life.

Right.If you really want to change,then start it from your own self.Focus on the things that will greatly help you to become a changed and a better man.Divert your time through involving in any sport or art so you won't keep dwelling on the past.Plan for a family outing every weekend which i think you seldom do this with your loved ones.If this things still do not work out,that's the time you consult a specialist.

- Try to leave your computer once you will lost what you can afford to loss that day and than get back straight to your work
- Try to spend more time with your family members rather than staying alone with your laptop.
- Only gamble with free money or fake coins available in some casino
- Don't dream of getting rich with gambling
- Stop yourself, nobody can stop you from gambling if you keep thinking about gambling and getting rich with it.

You need to take bath in an Indian river to get rid of your previous sins and begin a new life. ;) Hope you understand what I'm referring to.I wonder what websites you would have lost 10 bitcoins without making any profits ? Even my dogs have better luck than that.
The problem is not your gambling habit,it is the website that is sucking money out of you.Change the ball,not the game ;)

The first thing you should do is contact the site managers you are gambling in to get your account banned. Tell them to restrict your IP or completely remove your gambling account. Next you should try to get a new interesting hobby so you can keep yourself away from gambling during your leisure hours.

Serious problem should be taken care by serious action, find a professional help who really have an ability and a lot of experience to heal a lot of people from gambling addiction. Usually it's about psychology matters, so just pay a couple bucks to share your problem with a psychiatrist might could effective rather than waiting for your addiction getting crazier .

Why wont decide to put up those bitcoins into other investment?  Like offline business which you cant really able to get back or lose up those money on playing gambling. Its really be more worth of our money or btc to be wasted or inputted on business and might still give the chance to make even more money for longer runs. You are too lucky that you do still have money to spend on because people do only realize things when they dont have any money from their pockets. You can actually stop if you mean to but if not then youll need others help.

Ask your family for some help because those are the person who know you well. You are really in trouble if you don’t stop doing it right now, start on making your goal, reset the mindset and commit. Use your profit into some thing that can really be profitable like investing, this is better compare on gambling.

We cannot do anything to prevent you to gamble because in the first place it is your choice to play and let your money gone. If you really want to stop from gambling you need to do other activities that will consume your time and will let you forget gambling, but this can never be an easy task, what important is learn to work on your attitude because even if you have lot's of things to do to forget gambling but you don't control your attitude surely  you'll end up doing the samething again.

None could help you in this situation, maybe some will be sharing their life time experiences and the way they came out of it. But, you have the choice and the remedy. When you find it is hurting, make yourself stable that you won't enter into it at any instance. However you get advices, finally your mind is gonna adopt it.

I can't help you with that but i suggest stop gambling for your own good. I know that stop gambling is not easy because i think you addicted on gambling but you must have self control so that you can stop it. That is better you do now

Awst mate escape into gambling are very very hard there's nothing different from the drug addict, I suggest with you hiw forget and effective way to quit  playing gambling.
1. Ask to your family to get a support from them, or spent your time with your family
2. Relax yourself and focus your mind in your other activity to forget your gambling activities.
3. The most important is discipline yourdelf.

Right now I would say you need to cut your access to crypto funds, so you can stop gambling. Create a new wallet, or set a password for you current wallet, and ask for a trusted member of your family to keep it safe. The reason I'm suggesting this, is because it's way to easy to gamble with crypto. On a fiat casino, you can normally ask for exclusion from the site, and since they normally have KYC, you will not be able to play there again for a while. You just can't do that on cryto, so you need to shut off your access in a different way.

After that, you should of course ask for psychological help. Gambling can become an addiction, and it's a lot more difficult to try to treat it without help.

Yes, i always heard in this forum that gambling is hard to leave if someone is already addicted but i don't think so if its true, because maybe i have not yet come on that state. If crypto is your fashion to earn then why not changing other way to keep busy in trading or in a bounty campaign or maybe try to give attention to the love one's after spending time in crypto then in that way you can slowly forget gambling.

At the end you can only stop by the help of yourself. The more you lose, the more it is hard for you to stop especially if you're always thinking of your losses. Try to keep yourself busy, try other things that you may be interested like biking, etc. Stay away from gadgets as long as you can or if not, just play online games. As long as you are keeping yourself busy in other things, you'll forget gambling slowly. Remember, change start from yourself.

You will need to have the willpower and commitment to stop playing. Should also find someone to hold you accountable for your gambling. Or you can seek professional help and therapy.

We all seen a lots of personal opinions about your issue and personal advise since a lots of us also suffer from this mistake, I guess if you already tried to stop and it isn't successful better to find a medical specialist to check you out and give you some medications to free up bad effect of gambling activities from you, too much addiction can be cured by medications together with self will.

I'm sorry but I strongly disagree with using and medications, his username lordshiva sounds like he is from India. Very big county with old culture, he can go from one temple to another couple months. He will learn about self control, he will learn about his culture and tradition, in all that time he will be far away from internet and casinos. That is much better to do in my opinion then to spend his money on some drugs, and later to become drug addiction too. From one problem he will make two problems. I think nature can cure everything, his problem is weak character and in nature he can build that ans become stronger personality, that is all that he needs. Good luck my friends, what ever you want to do, try to do it in a good way.

This is must he needs if he can't consult to an expert then he needs to have will power but if that's still not enough and he can't build his own, he needs to spend his time to other things. You can entertain yourself by playing addictive computer games but the result of it is you can skip the addiction of gambling but you will start becoming addicted to that game.

There is nobody that could help you leave gambling .
It is your choice you could stay out of it or you could come back you just choose to come back every time you get tempted by it.
For me the best way to stay out of it is to find something that would make you busy do some activities and enjoy your life .
Hang out with friends or go out so that you wouldn't have a free time to gamble.

There are people who can help him leave gambling. Getting support from his friends, family and medical experts will suffice to help him get out but he needs to work on it and the initiative shall be shown coming from him.
Getting some help from others will give you a good encouragement to quit but still its in your hands if you want to quit or not.

I agree, and if his addicting is too heavy, then the last solution is only therapy and of course, his family need to know about this so they can also help him to solve his problem. and with other family know about his problem, the other family will watch and will manage his money and don't let him take the money in his wallet because he could be back to gambling place.

If you really want to leave gambling do it slowly. Let the process flow, if you want to forget a habit that you always do every day please don't ever do it at once, it will be useless. Suggestion yourself about gamble will make you never have everything, just a lust for a moment. Only you that can change yourself, not others. Others just help you to walk, not lead you to walk, because if you can walk, you decide where to go.

To became a good gambler, you should not get panic. Followed by you should not keep more bet to get more profit to avoid the previous lost.If you play for only thrice in a week means, you loss will be low.Most of people play gambling with bitcoin to avoid the stress from trading.

Yes you are right we can suggest you some methods but you should follow that method then only it is possible. and you must share this with your family members, I know it is a very hard part but you don't have another choice. If you do not control yourself then they will control you.



I am not understanding how this word is related to this topic. OP is asking help to overcome this gambling addiction but you...

I would say you have won half the battle, as you have identified your problem. I would suggest you to make a road map stating how much is your debt, what all you can do eg: jobs, take loans and see how soon you can get out of this. If you're a serial gambler than immediately hand over your funds to someone you trust and who can guide you, if required see a psychiatrist.

Always remember only gamble what you can afford to loose, anyway I hope you can recover soon.

If you are seriously addicted to the gambling then medication is the final way to get out and it needs more time to recover fully fom the gambling addiction.So you need the help of doctor immediately because you are already seriously addicted to it.But the good thing is you realized that so you can recover from that too.

Family and friends support is too much important for a person if he want to quit gambling, but i think your own will and struggle can also help you to stop gambling, You need to engage yourself in some other king of activities from where you can also get a good profit. Then you will not feel the need to for some quit way of earning money and will even not think about gambling. Therefore you should start another type of business from where you can get a good profit.

Dude, when I read what you wrote, I start to feel sorry for yourself. Why did you ambition? Along with many people, I say that gamble is just for entertainment. You had to find other ways to make profit.

Read everything what is written in this article http://www.responsiblegambling.org, talk to your family about your problems and if necessary visit doctor and seek for professional help. Spend more time outside, find yourself a new hobby, sport i don't know, whatever keeps you out of gambling.

I support everybody who suggested you to get a professional help. But I understand that in some cases people don't want to visit a physician either because of the financial problems or out of their shyness, or because they don't want to admit that they are sick. That's why, apart from the above, I'm giving you an advice. Try to spend the money you earn on the people you love. Buy for them some expensive and unusual stuff, and after seeing their reaction you maybe will never want to spend your money on gambling again.

This is what you exactly get from being addict on gambling, you're in trouble but at least you make an attempt to quit over it but since you failed to do so just keep on trying. Its hard to stop of course but you have to find your way to prevent from being totally broke, make yourself busy in other things ask your family for some help as well.

So seems you don't know what to do with surplus money. Money that doesn't have a finality goes to gambling as don't have where to spend it, is it?
You should find a finality for this money that doesn't involve gambling games. Look for a smart investment, look for an activity you want to practice/learn, some people prefer to spend surplus money with collectibles, you just need to find what you really like in life. Addictions are a signal of empty life...

It's really hard to quit especially when you have been a part of it for a long time and it has become a habit for you. If you care abot your money and if you have worked hard for it, it would really make yourself feel more miserable to use it in gambling then you can slowly quit it. I agree that making yourself busy is a big factor to quitting.

it's definitely a very complicated situation.
it is almost impossible to solve this problem alone.
Surely you need help, you should talk to a psychologist to help you deal with this situation.
Another solution is to join support groups to discuss together and get advice on staying away from gambling.

That's really serious problem that you need to fix immediately, if you don't want to need a doctor to fix that problem make you everyday habit to other activities just to avoid your self engaging gambling. Playing other physical sport and forgot gambling if you want, also in trading make you life busy in trading it might be used to you to forget that gambling. Addiction is easy to stop if you know how to discipline your self on it. It is depends upon on you do not follow your emotion.

I've been addicted to this industry before, like you, I can't stop myself. I came to the point that I consult every person I know that could help me to surpass my challenges. I even go to a doctor and enroll myself in rehabilitation program but none of it didn't succeed. Why? Because I wasn't ready to accept change. I contradict what these people around me say. Having that said, It is really difficult to overcome such addiction. What did I do? It is indeed that Regrets are felt when it's just too late. My friends and relatives gave up on me, and they said that my condition is incurable. So I finally decided to help myself, Step by step. To ease my thirst for gambling, I volunteer to join a community service and enroll again in a rehabilitation program this time, I take it seriously. I set goals for myself, make my family as an Inspiration, and I make myself busy by doing recreational activities such as Basketball, Drawing/Painting, and etc.

---

What I'm trying to point out is that no one can help you if you won't help yourself. It's hard to overcome challenges like these but don't let it hinder you to grow. Don't let regrets be your stepping stone or at least your last option. Make yourself believe in something and make it as your inspiration to succeed.

Its really not easy to quit gambling when you are already addicted, but the best you can do is why don't you try to focus on the other things that helps yourself to escape in being addicted. You can go travel or call a friend to ask some advice's from her, so that it helps you, just control yourself and its depends if this can be a good in your self. Because you are the one who control it. Listen very carefully to their advice's and suggestions. Nothing wrong in gambling, but be sure you know how to manage your time, money and emotions. Just think the best and don't let emotions bring you into being addicted.

Yes sir i think i am in that kind of situation...because many times i tried myself but i am not able to stop myself....i just cannot exppalin it clearly what i feel but its really very hard...because if i earn say 500USD..i dont know what should i do with them..i stop myself for 3-4 days or may be more...but some day its sure i will gamble with them

All we can give for you are advices that we ain't sure you'll take seriously. You can try to avoid it as well as people that keeps on bringing you there. Focus on your family, to things that makes you interested and keeps you busy. If none of that helped you go seek for a professional help. But all of this would be useless if you don't start it with yourself. The change must start from within, you really need to want and accept the change. At the end of the day no one can really help but yourself and your loved ones.

Gambling addiction is not easy to overcome.Our advices would not help you. If you really have a serious problem then you must consult a professional or probably there could be a support group on your city. They can definetely help you.

1. Make yourself busy by finding other activites (watching movies particularly porn helps me a lot).
2. Stay away from your phone/computer or gambling friends so you won't be tempted to play.
3. Don't hold money if possible.
4. Slap yourself to get back in your senses if you are eager to gamble again.
5. If you did almost everything then seek for professional help.

That is some serious habit you need to adjust, and you can't just leave gambling in an instant. The first thing you need to do is find another hobby or something you need to do to make you busy like going out for a walk with your dog and schedule the time. Another thing you need to do is when you start to turn on your computer and gamble, set your laptop or computer a timer so you would know when to stop. Hopefully it works for you, and good luck!

After reading OP story, it seems that he is heavily addicted to gambling at this point, you say you have tried everything to quit gambling, have you ever tried calling the quit gambling addiction counselling center in your country? The counselor might be able to help you, I am sure they have a good way to assist people on gambling problems.

The best ideal outcome to quit gambling do not get down on yourself and do not back on your gambling activities.because if you want to quit gambling control yourself nothing different quitting smoking control are the best way of success.

Right. I think for severe cases or similar, external help from a professional would be very useful. I don't think he can work thus out by himself anymore. And he also needs to have a good support from family and friends. It needs to be taken care of because this may lead to more harmful effects

The only one that can help you is yourself, if you dont committed to keep your promise then any advice is useless, go find a psychiatrist to help you to deal with your addiction, keep yourself busy with hobby and activities, then always remember how gambling affect your life

Your own decision making and dedication to leave gambling will lead your way to leave. An advises will just a words even you will read but if you don't do and apply its nothing. The very basic and to step out is too push yourself to quit. Have some hobbies that you can do or what you want physical activities that may turn your attention and not to think of gambling.

Family support and religion become the primary help for addicted gambler since it's difficult to do it without any help of people around.
I have my neighbours but they have different fate , first one , the gambler finally recovered because their family was support him meanwhile the second was commit to suicide !

This is the possible outcome when you are really broke and too addicted with gambling, worse part is after seeing that you can't control your emotions and too much stress was been brought by heavy gamble then corruptions inside your minds will followed, better to seek personal help with either your friends or family relatives aside from seeking psychological medications and treatment.

Not only you,many are struggling with this. To leave from gambling,you have to control your mind. It's purely based on your mind set.In gambling you will get profit sometimes and even loss .You should not excited once you win and don't worry if you loss a huge.You should not continue to play to get the lost dollars.

I really don’t know if there is a rehab for gamblers but I think you should really make sure that you check yourself into one or try attending those gamblers support groups and instead of gambling find something else to do.

That's huge money, OP! You were quite a rich man before you started gambling as those 10 coins would buy you a house right now. Your case is quite extreme and the only thing I'd recommend is to either start living in a secluded place, with no casinos and no Internet, until the urge passes, or going to a rehab.
It's the same with all addicts. Either you can do it yourself or with the help of your family or you can't and it will be the end of you if you don't start fighting it. There are people and institutions that specialize in cases like yours. Don't waste time and money thinking you can get those lost coins back and trying to play the system, because obviously the system is playing you.

You have already lost 10 bitcoins in gambling and you still don't stop your gambling addiction, you will just continue to lose more, casino have a better chance to win your money with the house edge, if you want to stop gambling, maybe you could try to pass your money to someone you trust, let them hold the money for you and therefore you can't gamble anymore.

First is you need to swallow you pride and accept that your a loser because the thirst of turning it around is what most gamblers drives them to go back and play. Second is cut your internet connection for some months.

Ideally, setting yourself into limit can really help you from getting out of the casinos and you must commit on that for you to succeed. Its not easy to stop from the things you used to lived but you must try it. Gambling is not a good addiction after all, so better to think again.

Find another activity or hobby. The only reason why I gamble is because of fun and because its money that if I lose it I dont mind. Make sure you seek family support and go to a psychiatrist to talk about your problem.

before doing all this,he must first consult hes family because if theres someone whi can help him seriously ,morally and truthfully its the family(ofcourse with God) .this is the typical case of addiction and this is not an easy task to quit so if theres some important person to be part of this.thats our family,our loveones than will be there in times like this

Finding something new might do the trick for OP to quit gambling for real, but it depends on his mind setting. Let's say he already find something new, a new hobby, but after a week he felt incomplete, something is missing in his life, so he went back to his old routine and play gambling again, what is the point here? it is about if gambling became a habit of a person, it will be too hard for him to quit on it, maybe it will take some time if he could fight the urge on playing gambling again.

MOVE ON. Just accept the fact that you cannot recover your losses anymore and just move on. Yes, it may be hard to swallow the losses but that's one of the risks that you have to accept when gambling. We may realise big profits from gambling but we may also incur losses at the same time. Another thing, you should know that gambling creates this endless illusion of betting regardless of your winnings or losings. Lastly, you should know WHEN TO STOP gambling as this is the primary reason on why most individuals tend to be bankrupt.

The thing is that these people do not know the essence of moving on because they will EITHER go home with absolutely nothing OR with negative accounts due to debts. Hence, they SEEM to not have any choice but try to WIN again because it is the ONLY way they get to get their losses back, pay their debts, AND earn. These trio they cannot sacrifice thus they keep going no matter how the lights of gambling have dimmed for them.

I see your point, mate, just that these people are already giving themselves ultimatum to never back up until they win BIG. As to when such time comes, we can never tell. They are all for gambling whatever there is in the hopes of winning. As you can see, they really do not have much choice.

Yes, it is almost impossible to get rid of gambling if you are used to it or you are addicted to it. Gambling gives a lot of people internal satisfaction and many people cant live without it. Even i have seen people take loans just to play gambling. A few of them are able to pay their loans back and most of them just ruin their life. I always say to play gambling with only the amount you can afford to lose.

Again! It's already like routine you will only lose because you are addicted in gambling. Gambling is very dangerous game you will not become millionaire as long as you will still gambling. Those who really addicted some of them already in a deep problem and some of them commits suicide because they lose everything. That's what gambling functions in every gamblers addicted.

If you really want to eliminate gambling in your routine you should divert your attention to other activities, something that would really consume your time so you will forget going to casino at all. But I should tell you, that is so difficult to handle and you must be willing to control yourself, actually it's your attitude towards change can only help you to stay away from gambling.

This topic has been discussed many times before, you should try to search it first. There are many suggestions already, choose one which is suitable for you. No need to wait other suggestions anymore because it will be just a repetitive/similar suggestions that has been posted many times before.

That is not so easy to apply. In fact gambling is a game once a person become addicted then it become difficult for them to stop it at once, for that he need to do regular struggle. In face once a person become addicted to gambling then even if he losing money he try to continue playing gambling because he think that he can make more money in gambling as compare to any other business or job which is time consuming and take a lot of time.

Lol why he need to go to psychiatrist and all. First he must move to betting alone for some time and then he should to slot roll only for times. Then he can get the move to any investment option in the crypto platform like trading.
I think trading very much similar to the gambling so he can go with that for this instance.
I am sure profit and loose also there so finally he will be move away if he understood or loose all the money.

it is very difficult to be able to leave the gambling, I also tried it and it is not useful. but I never meet one when I do not gamble for 3 days. and that's because I did not get an internet connection. so the conclusion that I can catch from kejadia it. we can leave the gambling if we do not have access to enter. so you should try not to use a laptop cell phone and other devices that can make us unable to access gambling. so try not to connect to the internet for 1-2 months ;)

That's the biggest need for a gambler who wants to get out of gambling seriously. He must be serious with his plan and getting support from the people whom you love will be a big thing to make your plan executable. Having your own will is also a must because it will be the one to pursue you for whatever reasons you want to achieve and having people behind you who are ready to support you with your plan is definitely a big sign that these people are willing to help you during these times.

How's seeking professional help sounds to you? Are you afraid? If not, then its one of the best decision you will make, believed me. Try to ask for a family member to call and seek help about your addiction.

And its not lately, admitting that you are at fault is already a good start. But you need someone that will guide and help you overcome your mentality. It might not be easy in the beginning, but I'm 100% sure that you can do it if you really wanted to quit and stop your addiction once and for all.

Yes that is right that if you are in early stage then it is possible and one can easily stop gambling, but once if he has  become addicted and spend some more time in gambling then he will surely find it difficult to stop gambling. One can only quit gambling if he is new in gambling and still not addicted. I personally have seen so many addicted people in gambling who tried for so many times to stop gambling for for every time the failed and cannot stop playing gambling.

There are really lot of helpful advices here but the question is are you willing to take the risk?Because it's very useless if we keep on giving advices then you yourself is not really determined and focused to quit gambling.Start the change within yourself.Discipline yourself and get away from all forms of gambling.If you think you find it hard to do it all alone,then that's the time you seek for help from your family or any person whom you think can help you so much regarding on your problem.

I don't why you feel so sick about the Gambling! Gambling is just addictive but I do agree, we have to make another habit otherwise you have to face a lot of problems. If you don't follow some strict rules you will end up with no money, Gambling is one of the most addictive ones in order to quit you have to make another thing as your hobby.

Nothing can be done now but one good thing you did was not borrowing money from someone to gamble and using only your funds. You should forget about the previous losses unless you don't do that nothing can stop you after you have done that simply move on with your life there is no solution for problems like these you need to have control on yourself

People who become addicted to gambling see no way except a psychiatrist to seek refuge from this bad thing because it is totally impossible for the person alone to get rid of this thing because it has covered most of the portion of the brain of that person so he see nothing in front of him except gambling. There are proper sessions of these gambling addicts with the psychiatrist in which he cures their diseases and help them to get in a new life and new relations.

The way to stop gambling is a lot. All the existing ways are spread on another thread and everything works. The question is, are you very intentions that you want to leave a gamble? Because all the ways you find will not work if you still have doubts to stop. So convince yourself first, lest you fail to stop gambling and you blame the method you find.

All this thing still ends on OP's decision.  No one can help you except yourself.  Decide to stop and be determined to do it.  If you are having a hard time consult an specialist to know what to do.  If OP have will to stop, he can stop anytime he wanted.  Only our own mind can command on things we can do or stop to do.  So you want to stop, decide to stop and stick your determination to it.

The worst thing what I feel is that when people borrow money from others for gambling. They have lost theirs and most likely chances is that they will lose this as well and it effects directly in relationship because now you will not be able to return their money back for some time till the time you earn money and pay back the debtors.

For these type of cases, searching for the help of an specialist is a very wise decision and a very good advice to give. People who suffer in the hands of gambling cycle tend to lose grasp of their own mind to control the need to do it. They feel helpless when confronted by stress and would always turn to gambling to relieve it.

With an specialist, they can look into it differently (through scientific eyes) and provide intervention to help the gambler. It is not 100% that they can find a solution for it but they can provide support (that is much needed) for the person who's in need.

Meanwhile, he can do certain things that will help in getting rid of this addiction. But he will need someone who can help him or support him during his fight or else he should possess a strong will power. It is not an easy task to shake off old habits.

However, changing ones interest can be a great tool in this matter. He should find out other methods with which he can achieve the purpose he had behind playing gambling.

Just proceed on thing that if you do find out to yourself that you do need others help then you will really need that thing because not all people do have the will to quit on their own and do need others help for them to do such thing. Leaving out on any addiction or hobbies is really hard and its understandable that temptations to play again is there but if you do really mean to quit then you can really do it which would entirely depending on the control you do have.

Yeah, it is same like when someone breaks their leg, then you don't tell them to just stop crying and try to show determined. In this time, we need doctor or some specialist. So same here in addiction disease in it we need help to recover it. For my point of view, we get addiction when we have weak mind and we have no control on ourself then definitely in this situation someone need specialist or doctor.   

I advise you to escape from this disease. Gambling is an addiction you have to stop it. Gather your money and spend it on something good. Try to make your time full with sport, seeing friends... never be alone at home so that you do not think a lot about it. Whenever you feel the need to gamble try to think about other things.

besides that, you need to ask other friends to stay beside you so you can talk each other and you don't have any chance to talk about playing gambling. you need to walk out from your house to feel another experience, maybe you can start to make yourself busy by doing anything that is not related to gambling. the first day until a month is the hardest things that you can do but after one month or three months, your body and your mind will think about another thing and will not let you think about gambling.

If you can't avoid to gamble in just one moment just take out little by little by finding alternative hobbies or the best is giving the enough time in your family instead of gambling. Always think that gambling is not profitable instead it will bring to hell. And manage you money and time by limiting and prioritizing the things that bring in comfortable life.

seriously speaking to you my dear if you really really want to leave gambling first step is you must forget the gambling areas, forget the word gamble and think properly if you are in proper way to gamble, think about your responsibilities and then go to sports or you must enjoy yourself in other ways, and the most of all you must discipline yourself and always think the risk what gambling does into your life.

Making day busy is possible but night time we have to stay alone nobody will give us company. So try to control your feelings by yourself. I know when we are alone of course we will think about our addictions it may be gambling or anything but at that time if you control your emotions then definitely you will come out from any addictions.

Curious. how can we help you? Are you looking for words to make you calm?
If you want qnd it affects you - quit, if not - you know ehat to do. Just look it in different way - gambling is for fun, it's not a way of profit.
If you don't know how to spend your earnings, I suggest you to buy fragrance, fashion clothes and take care of your loved ones, give them gifts and save some money too....

I wonder if OP still playing, actually without any advise if we decide by ourselves that we will quit we can eventually make it, it's jist a matter of standing on our words making an honor to do what we say unless we already came to the point of being too greedy that it feels unease to us not to be able to bet even a single bet. Trust ypur word and believes you can.

If you just played in land-based casinos, you could exclude yourself from gambling and that would work for the whole country. At least that’s what happens in mine. But in the online world, even if you self-exclude from one place, there are many others available where you could still lose money.

As others have said, I would try to find help but let’s not beat around the bush: if you want to solve your problem you have to quit gambling forever. If you spend a couple of months without gambling and you feel better, you will think that you will be able to control it and to play a little bit. WRONG. Playing again will lead to the same losing path.

You have to do it the same way as an alcoholic quits alcohol: you can never gamble (or drink) again.

What can help an addict the most is his own will power and determination, how much badly he wants to get rid of any particular habit? It is not easy to shake off old habits but again this does not means it’s impossible. There can be two reasons behind gambling, either fun or money. If someone is trying to have joy by gambling, he needs to change his interests and for profit seeking gamblers, it is good to go for the real sources of money.

Therefore no words or any advice will work for OP because whatever we told him but he's not willing to quit for good then these will all be useless. If we want to change for the better we should start in ourselves and everything else will follow. Everyone can change and it's just a matter of time and effort, and it's just 21 days to make a habit.

No word can ever make someone realize his or her mistakes unless you yourself have your initiative to  change yourself.
Gambling as self entertainment is fine but when you get addicted to it, that is totally disastrous.
If you want to change, today is the right time. No need to hear words of motivation from others.

I agree, well the only person whos incharge for your change is yourself or the poster needs to have an inspiration who can he get a strengths to fullfill his wanting to leave gambling. I believe that words is not enough as action makes more sense to do so the advices from us is nothing for him if he didn't do.

We cannot suggest you anything on what to do for you to stop gambling because you have been addicted already and it is all in your mind. The satisfaction you felt whenever you gamble. So only you can help yourself. All i can suggest you is to spent more time on your family like your children and wife if you got one. Then you will realized that they are more important than anything else in this world until such time that you will be able to get rid gambling out of your system. Always use this method, mind over matter.

I also had that kind of situation before. It is a good thing that you are already aware with what you are experiencing right now and realized to try to quit gambling. Quitting with gambling is difficult specially when you know that you are already addicted doing it. The best strategy for that is to decrease or lessen the amount of money you will bet time to time. Doing that will teach you in controlling your gambling strategy. Continue doing that until you will realize someday that you can already limit the amount of money you can spend in gambling. Gambling a small amount of money is a good advice because when you lose it, it is easy enough to earn it back using other ways rather than gambling. Do not also have a thought of trying to win back your losses. Just forget about it and move forward. Having that kind of thought will only lure you of betting a large amount of money again and again and will end up losing it again also.

You are the only who can help yourself. Its a matter of change of mind, self discipline. Gambling will just only give you more problems eothee health, family or money.

In gambling, you will always lose more than your winnings. You got to believe me on this because i experience that one. If you gamble for fun with your extra money then nothing is wrong with it because it is your money. But it you starting to borrow money for gambling that would be totally wrong. You are now a compulsive gambler and you can't sleep if you can't gamble. My advise is to consult a doctor and heed for his advise.

Gambling addiction is depend how to manage on it, having a mindset and also having a limit on you self that's the way you could control your self. So before it's too late and turns you into addiction you must discipline first your self not to be addicted in gambling.
You are the one who could fixed your self or just consult the doctor for better addicted reliever, or just make your self busy here in forum to forgot gambling or doing trading that makes your day busy in that way you may forgot gambling addiction.

I agree borrowing funds for anything which claims to double your funds is never same , so many people nowadays take a loan invest in ponzi scheme thinking they would keep the profit with themselves and remaining return but at the end it turns out to be a scam. We should only borrow funds if we are sure we will be able to repay it otherwise don't borrow and do with what we have

It's not easy to leave gambling, just decide in your life to quit in gambling and not to go back anymore. Once you decide you can leave gambling. Make a way also for you to be busy in one thing in your life focus your self into it and you can go far from your vises. Especially gambling in your life if you're addicted in gambling its very difficult to quit on that thing. But if you succeed to quit on gambling. You can have a better life in the future.

Honestly , if you really do realize in what you put yourself into , you don't need anyone to help you leaving gambling since you should do that by your own will and without anyone's help . Compulsive gambling can indeed be very harmful especially if the person has the needed ressources to feed his gambling addiction and won't realize that he wasted all his assets over dreams or shall we call them fantasies ..
Getting professional help is what i'll recommend you to do since there'll be people who know how to deal with your depression or whatever you're going through with an effective way .
But if any change will take place , it'll come from your own self .

True, it's impossible for random people in the Internet to help an addict that can't stop himself from indulging.
None of us would make it if we wanted to make a heroin addict stop poisoning himself and a gambling addiction works more or less the same. It's less destructive to your body and mind but as much to your psyche, family and social relations, self esteem and so on.
OP should seek help from friends and family and put himself in a rehab if they can't help him.

Piece of advice my friend.if you want to stop on gambling focus on other things like played sport,joine with your parents that can make you busy or go to counseling it can help you that

I don't believe that someone can't quit into something because if that someone really wanted a change then he can do that. It's just a matter of time and perseverance to do that. Honestly, a lot of things can help through this like diversifying our attention that will make us really busy, like hang out with friends and family and find a new hobby. I believe that it just take 21 days to make a habit.

Maybe you should make a final decision youre the one who decide for your self quitting in gambling is not easy but if you tolerate of what you are doing maybe all your money will get lost.

Ask yourself in a mirror, why you can't do leave enough to gambling? For me, my advice is.. Why you can't go out with your friends or accompanied with your family, relatives.. Or make do something that can make you busy enough. And not to go in a gambling place. Just realized how money is important enough for you to leave as a gambler.

Self discipline i think that's the only need when you turn addicted on gambling, and also having a mindset that follow your limit in gambling.
You the one who can heal your self if you want yo out in gambling addiction, or make your day busy with others like trading or just here in forum making articles and blog for bounty campaign that the great idea you forgot on how to gambled.
Not easy but i know you can move on if you are willing to do and discipline your self.

you can visit here https://www.helpguide.org/articles/addictions/gambling-addiction-and-problem-gambling.htm as i know if you want leave gambling..... if you cannot stop to gambling right now, just manage your money, just spend a few bucks from your wallet, if you lose never make deposit to get back your profit...cultivate the mindset that you gambling just for fun, not to earn money....

It understandable that leaving or to come out of gambling is a very difficult task but need to concentrate on the other areas, give more time to family and friends, spend time by playing, read books many ways are there to get rid of gambling. Meditation is very useful that will also help a lot.

Yes quitting from gambling may be a hard thing to do but through the help of your family and friends,it will be easier for you.Before taking some actions,motivate yourself first and make some reflections on what you really want to happen in your life.Divert all your free time by having out of town vacations with your family and friends and make up with them.Indulge into sports and make it as a hobby if you find it helpful for you.

that is easy to say but actually it is verry hard to do and it is also depends on how severe your addiction was. like for example if your gambling addiction is only mild and you can still control your self, then those you mentioned above are not really necesarily to do, not unless your trully addicted and comes to the point that you already forget to eat your meals or you now sell your property and important things just to continue playing gambling. if thats the case then you already need a rehab and good counselling.

If you really did everything but no avail...I think you must need a ultimatum solution and quit this cryptocurrency and focus your time to your family or establish a new business that needs much of your time. I think that's the only way you must do if you want to quit gambling. 

better solution indeed, give your self a conviction so inside your mind you will be able to punish your mistakes, if everything already been done and you still can't control yourself finding ways to keep continue gambling then much better to empty your wallets and let your finances being surrender to your wife or to someone who can handle it much better, you won't be able to play anymore if you doesn't any money.

For me the best thing you can do  to avoid or preventing you from the temptation in gambling is prayer.all of us here have a different religion and belief ,but for me this is the best weapon to renew your life  if those things we cannot resist in the temptation of being to gamble,because we  are only human,so need a guiding hand that cannot solve in physical but can be solved in spiritual prayer.

Find another bustle, make your days going even further to touch gambling again. Well indeed it's not easy, but if we really have a strong intention, it can be done. And also try to consult with a religious expert, it might be more helpful if you really want to leaving forever from gambling.
Gambling does feel like a completeness, but it can be replaced with something else, I'm very sure of it.
The point is there are many other things that can be done that makes you more busy in the virtual world or the real world, just don't giving up if have that intention.

Lol. If you said you did everything but still addicted, then you haven't done everything yet. If you're serious and determined to quit, the outcomes of your gamblea should be enough to knock your head out of it. The fact that you made the threat probably means you're not serious and determined enough

We are all addicts in some ways, for someone it's drugs, for others gambling, trading, investing, buying something. The thing is, when something really excites you - you become addictive, even physically to bioactive compounds that release while you receive pleasure. So if you're not okay with spending that much money on gambling just find something else that might excite you that much, so you could just switch over to it.

If a person can make it alone they should seek the help of a specialist. In other words OP should go to a rehab where he'd have no access to gambling for some time and frequent psychiatric sessions that would determine his condition. If his addiction can lead to ruing and possibly a suicide there's no other way but to go to a mental institution.

Treatment for compulsive gambling may include these approaches:

Therapy. Behavior therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy may be beneficial. Behavior therapy uses systematic exposure to the behavior you want to unlearn and teaches you skills to reduce your urge to gamble. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhealthy, irrational and negative beliefs and replacing them with healthy, positive ones. Family therapy also may be helpful.
Medications. Antidepressants and mood stabilizers may help problems that often go along with compulsive gambling — such as depression, OCD or ADHD. Some antidepressants may be effective in reducing gambling behavior. Medications called narcotic antagonists, useful in treating substance abuse, may help treat compulsive gambling.
Self-help groups. Some people find that talking with others who have a gambling problem may be a helpful part of treatment. Ask your health care professional for advice on self-help groups, such as Gamblers Anonymous and other resources.
Treatment for compulsive gambling may involve an outpatient program, inpatient program or a residential treatment program, depending on your needs and resources. Treatment for substance abuse, depression, anxiety or any other mental health disorder may be part of your treatment plan for compulsive gambling.

In other words yon need to be evaluated and possibly locked up and heavily medicated, just like other nutjobs ;)

I am very sorry for your losses, 10 BTC is a large amount if you will convert it all today. You cannot bring back those days that you wish you didn't played those Bitcoin But what you can do today is to prevent gambling anymore to avoid more losses in the future, avoiding gambling is very hard but if you really want to stop your addiction you have to do something else, in my case what i did to stop gambling is i played online games, MMORPG to be exact games that can really make me busy and forget about gambling. As for you find yourself something that you think can help you buy time. Goodluck

All things that are exceeding into moderation is really considered as an addiction and its not really easy for your to get out or switch off into another thing since your attention is already hooked up into a particular thing which coming to a point where resisting it,is somehow impossible already.If you can able to jump into another thing which doesnt really involved money then its much better but wont really be an easy thing to do.

You can help yourself to leave gambling if you only decide to quit. Because if you don't make a decision to quit you can't leave gambling. Help yourself to push out on gambling and make a new thing in your life.

The only one that can help you is only yourself if you think that you already do everything and still it does not working like what you have said then you better go for rehabilitation because in your situation you are already addicted in gambling.

If you are earning bitcoin and just using it to play gambling and lose it then maybe it is better for you to travel and forget about online activities even about earning bitcoin. If you will not going to be out online you will still continue to play gambling and I think you are already addicted in gambling because you cannot control yourself anymore. I think you need to good adviser for this and especially to those who already lose much more than you do.

But it is not that much easy to change our mind that why the gambling addiction is very dangerous and it needs long term treatment to recover from it.All he can do is try to give his/her attention to something which he likely to do more than the gambling then the mind will change to that than gambling.But if he is seriously addicted then he need to consult the doctors to get out from it.

You need to motivate yourself that you have to change and there's no other people that can help you but only you. It may not be easy in the beginning but stick to your plan that you want to quite because if you'll become inconsistent you will struggle more.

If you are serious gambler and playing for long time. It would like a drug for you. Need to get the counselling to get out from the gambling filed. I suggest you to reduced the amount of investment rapidly and then reduce the matches you bet or dice games.
After some time you have to invest on trading or mining platform. This option is best of every investors. So you will be able to make the profit soon since all the coons price is low today.

You seem to have made a key realization this is key but now you need help, overcoming and addiction is never easy, unfortunately the help we can provide is limited so the best thing to do is to confess everything to your family and ask help from them, since your addiction is so severe you will probably need professional help, get it, do not be ashamed of it, if you follow the treatment you will improve in just a few months and you will leave your addiction behind you.

To leave gambling is not that difficult if you really are decided to do so. First thing to do is to seek a new hobby to replace with it the time you spend in gambling. This can be running, going to drink a coffee or a drink whenever you have the urge to gamble and so on. If you are not successful with replacing gambling with something else as described above then you should seek help from gamblers anonymous together with your family. Also family support is key in reaching this goal.

OP wanted to change but he does not know how to change.  He already stated that he wanted to leave gambling,so it would be best to tell him some advice on how to leave gambling and not just a general view about stuff.  But I do believe it is always up to the person.  There is no greater than the power of mind.  Whatever we think to do, if we are willing and determined, we can do it, no matter how hard it is (telling about stuff that we can do and not the impossible.)

Yeah, once you can get yourself busy and occupied with other related hustling and bustling, then it would be easy to leave the world of gambling. It still at the end of the day has to do with the mind, but to me that should be a start. Go to gym, go to clubs, do some other things you may like and have fun with, roll with friends who are not into the gambling world and let them know your plans so they can always watch out for you. It is a gradual process, but over time, it gets better.

I have seen people in his shoes that just keep trying all by themselves and then feel they are doing everything in their means to stop but nothing is working. The truth is that I have never seen someone who is already in the high level of addiction and ended up doing it alone. He will need to involve people, he will need friends and families, and then he will probably need to go see a shrink and support group. It is easy to get addicted to anything, but coming out of it? No way easy!

To come out of gambling self-desire is very important, I can give n number of suggestions to the gamblers, but they need to be mentally strong enough to leave gambling. As you mentioned in the suggestions there are so many ways are there to leave gambling need to concentrate on those also that could be one of the methods.

I think you better to control your self on gambling try to do something like playing games online to avoid gambling. If you not control your self your going back again and do gambling. Just focus on another thing so that you can stay away on gambling.

But i think that it is not so easy to leave gambling, specially if you are addicted and playing gambling for a long time. They need some help from their friends and relatives. He must also have good control over his pulse with strong determination and only then he can stop himself from playing gambling. I have seen a lot of people who stopped playing gambling but do not succeeded for a long time, they start playing gambling again after some time.

Getting control on gambling is possible specially if you are playing gambling for a long time. It can only be possible if a person is you help of your friends and other relatives. In fact when we become addicted then it become difficult to stop playing gambling so easily. Even if we stop gambling we cannot continue stop playing gambling for a long time but will start playing gambling again very soon.

If you will get broke you will surely leave the gambling since you do not have enough money to be used in betting. If you are really serious in leaving gambling you should also take it seriously. You can seek help from therapist.

This self will, and determination doing it, are the the best tools to overcome gambling addiction, the person who already attached to much to this activity can't control emotions anymore and even he keeps getting busted he will continue to seek for any means to gamble, it's needed enough time to realize
and really pursue quitting, the more you really determine to stop the more you can achieved quitting.

What I do for me to get rid over gambling was to divert myself in other things that also get my interest like to be in sports also you should have the determination if you really want to quit gambling i know it is so hard to do especially when you are in a community that full of gambling places. I've been there and almost lose everything but i told myself that i should stop set my goals to earn money.

Lol. Yeah, I feel you bro! It is just that our level of addiction is different and some are just pretty good. My own addiction anyway is making money and making a lot of it, and I am not ready to get any help, not now and not anytime at all. That is by the way, gambling addiction or any negative addiction generally is a bad one, and it takes a whole lot to be able to get out from. I have heard some people talking about hypnosis before and saying it works, I really hope it does, but in one word, it takes a lot to quit any addiction.

There is one you are not adding there and that is hypnotherapy. 10BTC is huge and I am sure that dude sure needs one right now. Jokes apart though, I really want to know if there is anyone in the community who has had someone do this, or have experienced it before. I know hypnosis has been said before to cure some behavior and some addictions, but I need to know if there is a real case of it, as all I have seen or read is just basically theory and the way it was placed, it works like charm.

I have never been addicted to anything but I have known some people that went through it and they have said to me that is the hardest thing they have done in their life, you need to understand that for them is a daily struggle, they need to battle the temptation of falling again in the world of addiction, it is not something that simply goes away it is with them for the rest of their lives.

The easiest way to get away from gambling when you are addicted is to take holidays and move out of that city or country if possible or else join your passion in any of the sports or something like that which will change your mind and you will be involved in some other daily activities which will make you much better and keep away from gambling as well.

You're too serious about your gambling. Avoid that, you'll surely waste money with that way. I suggest that you go out for a while and take a deep breath, do something that is useful then go back to gambling if you feel like you want to. With what you are sharing it seems like you are sitting the whole day and gamble. That's wrong, you will surely have a hard time thinking on what to do with your money when you win.

For someone that doesn't know what to do with his earning needs to look for something where he can allocate his earnings. And if you are serious of leaving gambling, you should not let yourself engage with any gambling tool, casino, app or anything that's related to gambling. Take time to meditate and look for yourself and what you really want. This can give you a lot of space on knowing what you really want in this world and it can definitely help you stay away from gambling.

Yes,i agree with you that it is most effective if we move out to the place which are lots of gambling because once you are a addict it is easy for you to get tempt to gamble over and over again even how much you wanted to quit but since you used to gamble everyday you cannot say no once someone invite you to play. And actually thats what i'm doing right now I move out to my parents place and divert myself into sports like i play volleyball also I go to gym and now i can say i am free of being addict in gambling.

Drug and other types of addiction is certainly hard to avoid but if you will push yourself through your limits when it comes to quitting you can do it, I believe.
Counselling will come if there's no way to resolve that serious addiction, it will take time to heal but its an effective way.

Totally agree, for gambling addiction I think it's best if you completely forget about what has been lost so that you'll start life afresh without gambling or making losses because the moment you're bent on recovering what has been lost you'll never come out of addiction and so the first step us to let it go and then counseling will help you back up.

Good option but i think it is very difficult, but once we lose money in gambling then it become difficult for us to stop playing gambling because we always want to recover our lost that we have already made in gambling, and for this purpose we continue playing gambling for along time, until we become addicted and then we really find it hard to stop playing gambling once we become addicted to gambling.

Ask for someone you love to help you stopped from gambling, you loss huge amount of money overtime and its not healthy anymore because you can't control your emotion. Spend more time with your family, its not too late to stopped save yourself from being totally broke.

Starting all over again without gambling is easy to say but the application of all the good suggestions that we are getting here is the hard to do.

Yes its hard if you don't have the willingness of doing it.

You have depicted a very horrible picture of gambling but I think that it is enough for a person to be determinant about his plans and then he could surely get the way out of this menace. Gamblers do so to help them with the mental depressions or to make money and if the former aspect is derived out from his personality through a support by his family or friends, then it would become easy for him to get over the second situation.

Any type of addiction is bad and quitting is never easy. It is a sheer willpower that can turn the things on for that person else nothing much can be done even with counselling or other motivation unless that person really feels the need to change their habit.

Never easy but that is the thing to do. Not easy does not mean impossible to do, with a strong sincerity of heart, you can certainly stop gambling. Do not just ask for a way to quit, but you must really want to stop gambling because only you can do it even you can do it without the help of others if you're serious. Do not lose before you succeed.

If you can't seem to control yourself not to gamble then I think you need to go and see a therapist. I know you will overcome because this is what you want and you know that quitting is going to be good for yourself and family. It's going to be hard at first though but you will eventually get over it.

But there are lots of cases which a certain individual doesn't really have that kind of strong sincerity and control towards on quitting gambling.Its not bad to seek out help from others but before you do such thing you should tried out to help yourself first on quitting because it do always start from yourself and if your brain will completely stop on thinking about gambling you can possibly quit on your own but temptation is really hard to resist.

Three things could help a person to give up on gambling. the first one is the change of locality that is not possible for most of the people but if it is made possible for some days such as moving to some other place on temporary basis where there are no casinos at all then it is the most effective way to give up on gamble thing especially if a person is addicted to the house games. The other is that emotional support by the close friends and family members could prove to be a great help.

Yes you are right. But what I feel like is that these all methods are to be used by those who are not having much control on their nerves. There are many people who are able to control their greed by not changing their position in terms of physical location and they are not even in the need of some emotional or financial support by the loved ones. All you need is you to get out if this.

Fortunately, you realize that gambling has made you lose a lot, this is good. Maybe this is the time you are in crisis. Get out and hang out with more friends, do not think too much about gambling. Whenever you want to gamble, think about the bad past that it gives you. Remember that gambling can not make you better, it even makes you worse. This is just my advice

It all depends if it is just online gambling (which I am assuming it is because you are talking about bitcoin) then it could just be as simple as asking the site that you are going to so frequently to lose these bets in succession to block your account with them and your ip address as well.
This should deter you from going back there since you are blocked and even you tried you could not get back on unless you put alot of effort to get back on but by that time you might just exhaust in your efforts.

To leave a gambling you must prepared for yourself to not go back again from that place or from that any addiction like gambling. And you should need to control of yourself, and that's the very important mission to leave gambling.

That doesn't stop him from joining a new site.

When a gambler ends with serious problems, the only solution is to quit completely. For them is not possible to play responsibly, as many others do, any approach to gambling leads to the same old destruction pattern. This is common in many addictions, not just gambling.

I think you have to change your mindset to try to stop getting a lot of money in a short time. my way to quit gambling is finding another way and can benefit even not in a fast time but the risk is nothing like gambling
. When you can consistently make a profit outside play gambling, I'm sure you can quit from gambling.

It is really hard to leave gambling especially if you are really addicted with it. Once you are out of control with it, it will going to be hard for you to leave. You must help yourself to stop playing gambling and you need to motivate yourself to do that. I think it is better if you going to travel and leave those gambling games you have. Enjoy with family and friends and travel in some places that you are going to relax and enjoy to forget that addiction. You will see the beauty of life if you forgot that addiction and you will think that you are just wasting your time with gambling.  :D

Yes that's what I mean, do not rush to ask someone else's help to stop gambling, but you have to do it by yourself. If you seriously want to stop gambling, then you can definitely stop. The key to success from quitting gambling is yourself, so it's only you who can do it. If you have trouble stopping gambling, then you forgot to keep your keys where, and your friends only help to find the key, you still have to open it yourself.

Agreed.Gambling could only be good if you only played it for fun and pleasure.But if you make it as a means of living,that's where the danger starts.I always believe that in every problem,there would always a solution if you're willing to take the risk.Motivate yourself not to gamble even if it takes you so hard.Set new goals so you can start a new lifestyle far from gambling activities.And yes diverting your minds into sports or art,or make some family trips will really help you to spare from gambling.

When you say you have tried many times to leave gambling but never did, that means that you really did not do you're best to quit. There are many ways to quit gambling. I do think the best way is to distract yourself by playing sports, clubs, or any hobbies that will make you distract from gambling. Also, another way is to have a gambling rehab which will cost you something but I do think it is worth than losing 10 BTC worth of = 110,000 dollars.  If you are seriously trying everything you can you can stop.

Here is what you need to think first before gambling. You need to convince yourself that you will never win. Don't bring money or credit card with you if you are itching for gambling. No money, no gambling. Always think that you have 99% chance to lose and only 1% chance to win. Convince yourself that you will not go anywhere if you continue to gamble. Find something that you can do aside from gambling. There must be something, find it and don't think about gambling.

Your method will help him quit gambling but the problem is this won't be a permanent solution this will just distract him from gambling for a while and later he will start again
A better solution would be either convert all you bitcoin to usd and withdraw it or instead of gambling invest on the site

You don't need to convince yourself to the negatively effects of bitcoins because if you are really serious in leaving gambling there's no need for that what you need is to focus on how will you do it step by step.

No one would really able to help you out when you didnt even know on how to help yourself at first.Its been adviced for how many times on this thread alone and i dont know why this is still open yet we are already seeing repetition of advices on here.Op should really lock this already and im sure that these advices being given on here would really be enough on whats being asked or seek out.

This step by step technique is amazing. You will be considering more towards how to leave this harmful game rather to think what else is negative or positive. There is no doubt in the wrongness and sin of gambling so why to be continuously attached with this game. It seemed you have taken decision for leaving it, so brother don’t waste any other minute and just quit this away.

The only person that can really help you quit gambling for good is yourself. You will hear a lot of good advise hear. But if you don't follow it with your heart, nothing will change. And most of the time, its more of a mental game. How tough and how serious are you in quitting? Because 90% of those who quit have return to gambling anyways. Similar to quitting smoking, I know a lot of people who have quit for so long, but a simple event in their life triggers the addiction again (like death in a family). Its gonna be a constant and everyday battle for those quitters and its gonna be a tough road. But if you are really that serious and you know the consequences of getting back at gambling then I'm sure at the end you are going to overcome it.

Advises and all just give you ideas how to stop gambling but you have to make strong decssion then only it is possible. for example, in my family, my father addicted to smoking but suddenly his health was upset and 1 month he was hospitalised. after that, he stopped smoking completely why because he realise how it will affect his loved once. like that when people will realise there mistake that time automatically they will stop gambling.

Well that is when yo learn it the hard way, but some people will have the resolve to be able to quit anything if they wanted to. But that is hard to see anyone who has an addiction. So if you are a gambler and you have a gambling addiction, you either learn it the hard way by losing all of your money or you can stop it at your own volition. The latter is quite harder, but it is possible with some form of help, either it be from your family or some medical intervention.

But there are people that just don't learn. They even end up losing more and more money and even if they lost their money already they find ways to fund their addiction. Which leads to further drowning in debts. I hope before this happens to anyone, they could seek out help as the casinos and gambling sites will never do anything about it even if they post something like "practice responsible gambling".

Well they post "practice responsible gambling" because they are required by law. All their actions just shout the opposite: they remove clocks from casino rooms, they accomodate you almost for nothing in their hotels. You know, they really want you not to practice responsible gambling. Also, it is a state close to a sickness, a person cannot help himself.

So the OP should look for help of professionals.

I know that you are desperate to quit gambling but the only person who can really help you is yourself. You said you are in trouble and you already lose huge amount of money then make it a big reason that you really need to stop. It won't happen overnight though but one step at a time, do something that will not make you think about gambling. Perhaps go out with your friends or your family or maybe involve yourself in sports.

Well not just yourself, I would say a stronger factor is to seek help from your family and friends and maybe a doctor or medical help. It is empirical that you get support and professional help that would surely be a lot more suited to aid you in your gambling problems. Sometimes it is already hard to turn back from your addiction and you are in too deep in it that it is not enough to just help yourself.

I think this will stop if you reach a certain situation wherein you are bankrupted already. You lost all the means to have money for gambling so you will not have any other choice but to stop because you dont have money anymore. I know people who got broke because of gambling and it was only then they regret when they realized they’ve lost everything they have. 

The game of gambling does have a tremendous addiction, even everyone will do anything to be able to do gambling game. I find it strange why people are interested in playing gambling, whereas playing gambling has many disadvantages and is also a waste of time. I am one of those people who do not like playing gambling, although it is an entertainment only, but I am still afraid of nightmares that can be created when playing gambling. I came to the conclusion that the person playing gambling is a framed person, they are risking all their lives only for useless things. and the problem is that everyone will have trouble stopping playing gambling, the only way is to wait until the person is poor and finally understand that gambling game is a waste.

People get help from family and friends but dedication is important. without dedication, no professional will help you out. and according to my experience, you need more time to take some rest. the professional will control your mindset in that if any other work interrupt means it will not work out so you need more time.

Do it with a serious intention and commitment from yourself, because only you can change it to abandon gambling and try to divert jobs that you think can be forgotten and earn money other than gambling with positive things. I'm sure from time to time you can forget about it and love a positive new thing.

No matter what suggestions and advice that will give to you but if you have no determination to stop this gambling vice then every effort will be useless but anyway just try to make busy of your self like joining sports, religious and other activities that will make you always busy until you forget about gambling.

I don't know if the OP is really serious about this plan or just want something to talk about. It is hopeless when all you do is to ask for remedies and yet you are not doing it.

To sum it up, almost all the suggestions about quitting is "diversifying". In short, do something else to avoid gambling.

You've lost your money, and you will not be able to get it back. This is one of the bad effects for gamblers who are addicted to play.
You can only get out of gambling if you alone have the power within you and are determined to stop. Nothing can help you but yourself, make this an experience so you do not repeat it again.

It would really be pointless if you are just trying to read up advises without even tending to follow or apply it on to your current situation.You can really quit if youd want to without the help of any other people but seeking out an advice isnt really bad at all.If you are serious on quitting then you should mean it and do other stuffs that would really distract you on playing gambling again.

I have also learnt this from my life that nobody is going to do your work for you. You have to do it by yourself. No one can really help. People will give different advices and those all will be worth million dollars, no doubt but at the end of the day it is you who will be actually doing anything. Gambling indeed is an addictive, destructive and dangerous game but by believing in oneself, it is possible to do anything. In the beginning, it won’t be easy.

Absolutely like even thousands people will advice you but you still don't want to change nor not desperately then this will be all useless. If you need motivation to do so then think of your family's future and close your eyes and see what it will be looks like when you don't leave gambling for good. You need some realistic realization to waken your subconscious mind.

and if he cannot find motivation for himself, then I think he needs to visit psychiatrist to help him to enter the subconscious mind zone to rebuild him and his mind to leave gambling. I am sure that with the help of a psychiatrist, he can be a new person and he will leave gambling forever and not think about gambling again.

Visiting psychiatrist will be useless as well if he cant motivate himself. No matter how great is the psychiatrist, but the result will always depend on the addicted person. Psychiatrist will only help you how to motivate yourself, it does not give a guarantee that he will be able to stay away from anything called by addiction. It is a fact as we can see in real life, addiction of cigarette. It is a simple addiction compared to gambling imho, but the fact says that it is hard to leave the habit of smoking once we are addicted to it. 

Before we advise you,you need to commit or help yourself to leave gambling by controlling and focus your mindset to be responsible not to play it again.Motivate yourself no matter how hard it is always think that you have no future on gambling when you get addicted on it.

It is not possible for you, because even though people guide you to quit gambling. Mostly you will remember it for 2 or 3 days but after 2 days again, you will start gambling, so you need to decide whether to gamble or not because without the dedication and commitment it is not possible for you to quit the gambling.

For asking many people how to quit gambling is natural. But are you already asking by yourself when you are really ready to quit? In that case your losing money and enjoying how many times. But your not probably thinking how to quit. Asking by many people how to quit is not work for you to quit. But asking first in your own when you are ready to quit and  never do it again. Just do to quit and not asking how to quit.

Gambling is not what you understand it is.  GAmbling is made to entertain people and get profit from those entertainment.  But sadly, people have problem on their self control.  Honestly, casino always remind people to gamble moderately or gamble what they can afford to lose.  But players never listen.  They only listen to their own accord.  Unlimited fun that may lead to addiction and that is where the problem start.  It is not on gambling but rather on people who cannot control themselves.

No one can help you to leave gambling, it is depend on you, We are here just give you recommended to leave it.
decision is your hands. Better to find new activity and consistency with your decision.

If everyone is practicing responsible gambling, then trust me, the casinos will not be making shit load of money and wherever you are making a lot of money, you will want to do everything to keep the people in that spot for a longer time.

Why do you think tobacco industry is making a lot of money even though the cigarette companies keep announcing smokers are liable to die young ?

That is because human nature is just what it is with these things that can easily lead to addict but warning you will not stop them from selling it to you as that is where they make their money. If you are in their shoes, you will do the same and like you said, if the OP really wants to leave, the ball is totally in his court.

Although motivation is required doesn’t matter in what form it would be. But what I want to say here, brother if you have decided to quit gambling then there will be no other motivation required. You are the highest motivation for yourself. Don’t wait for any other second and leave this all. You will not be making any mistake by listening to what is your heart saying. Go for it as soon as possible.

It is really up to the gambler and his determination. Nothing else can really help. We can give thousands of advices but at the end of the day, it is only about will power. In order to fight any evil or a strong desire, a person must be strong inside and willing to give up anything for his survival. A person should love himself and train to avoid all those things that can hurt him in any way. Gambling is a difficult to give up but not impossible.

Being bankrupt does not stop some people to still continue gambling. I am sure some people can end up gambling themselves into slavery if care is not taken. The best is to just find help and as long as the OP already has the mindset to quit, he should be able to take it up from there.

He should talk to people that can help him, he should visit psychologists, some even say hypnosis can work but I do not know, but at the end, the steps should be finding help and trying as much as possible to stay away from gambling no matter how much the impulses come.

If a man makes his heart the center of his actions, there is no way he would suffer through rather remain in trouble forever. Gambling is a very addictive game and it is difficult to get rid of old habits but if a person gets really determined about something, I believe he can even do the impossible. What can help other than a person’s strong will is finding interest in other activities and getting busy in beneficial tasks so that he does not have enough time to gamble.

Firstly, if we have lost much money in gambling activities until now and then how many more losses we one week, one month, or one year ahead ??
Secondly, if we still have the debt caused by our gambling activities then the only way is to work hard to pay it off by real WORK .. not with Gambling again .. it will feel heavy to start because we throw money very easily and must redeem it with hard work and little by little .. but that's the consequence ... is not every action we take must have accountability? There is action there must be a reaction .. convince yourself that we can pass it ..

I think if the OP reads few threads here how people have lost and what they have to suffer will make him understand that quitting is so important if you do not have a self control. Else it could effect your personal life and you can lose out a lot of money.

You really need someone to help you to remind you that you shouldn't gamble that way. There are many ways to avoid gambling seriously but the first thing you need to do is acceptance. Accepting that you are a gambling addict and if you are aware that you are one of it then you can start moving on to the next stage of avoiding things that are related to gambling. To make it short, you can hire a psychologist to help you fix your mentally about gambling issues.

OP making the decison to stop gambling is actually the first step in the whole thing. H emust now talk to his friends and family so that they can help in anyways that they can, OP can also attend rehab and support as well.

actually everybody can help you to stop gambling. Everyone can be as long as you really want to stop, with the help of others you can stop gambling more quickly, it helps is not it? but I also agree with you, you yourself still choose, how great any help from others, if you do not mean it then you can not stop gambling.

There is no instant bro, no one can heal a daily that has been done by someone and we will make it forget quickly! There's no. You are smoker? if yes you can tell me, you're smoke because cigarettes is tasteful or because smoking is your daily? I think the answer is your daily. Same with people who gamble, not because they want to earn money but they gamble because it has become a his life. And a daily person's will be hard to change quickly.

Gambling is a very bad social disease. Victory resulting from gambling will not last long it will result in the destruction of individual characters and will ruin his life. Much has been the fact that gambling winners do not always have a prosperous life, most of whom experience severe poverty

Serious gambling is not easy to do a quick stop, but then if you are determined really to do so it is doable too. Make your life busy, in doing some activities, spend more time on working, spend more time on family bonding and activities, make some travel, give time to hobbies and most of all never turn back on gambling even a second for you to achieve the transformation😊 goodluck

Absolutely. The first thing anyone will tell you is to tell yourself that you want to quit something and if you are not ready to do that at all, then you will still be in that stuff.

It is not an easy thing to become an addict and it is always like one reasoning part of the brain is gone, and from an article that I read, scientists said it is the same part of the brain that drugs have effect on to cause addiction, is also the same part of the brain that gambling also affects, so it takes a whole lot of energy and personal strength to make such a decision to quit.

Only a strong determination can help a gambler in giving up this game. It won’t be easy, not at all and will definitely consume a lot of time. Gambling is a very addictive evil. Those people who ended up losing their lives, relations or all money must be aware of the consequences beforehand. An addict needs to transfer his concentration from this game to some other activity that must give him equal fun and thrill.

If he really wants to quit, buttressing on what you said, he should know one thing that he can never do it himself. The fact that he has been able to make the decision and the fact that he is willing to quit is a step to stopping the addiction, and the next thing is to take action, which i would always implore like you said for the person to take medical help or probably join a group, visit a shrink or whatever that may help to stop the addiction.

You are out of control pf your self, you never think about tomorrow all you are doing is enjoying the moment while you are sitting. Addiction can make you enjoy the moment without thinking otheres, without thinking your self and without thinking tomorrow. Addiction can make you fool. Well, in order to conquer you need to face it and control your self.

Only one who can help you is you alone. Noone can make the influential impact on your will. With strong attitude and will you could have quit gambling addiction the long time ago.

The greed is somewhat connected with your reinvesting into casinos because you want to regain lost money with one more game but the only thing that you will get is more losses.

If you are eager to stop gambling try to go to the addiction clinic where you will lead psychological talks with other addicts and maybe then you will realize the what is the reason that is obstructing your leave from the gambling rooms.

The best way to get rid of anything is to develop a nature like “I never go back on my words”. This is what determination means. If he has decided to stop gambling, he must consider playing again as denial of his own words and decision. Only he can help himself. He must choose some other activities that are more beneficial and thrilling than gambling. Try to search out some job and hang out with friends and go to new places. Why wasting life in doing same thing over and over again?

It is difficult to make you get rid of it, since we don't know what motivates you to gamble. However, by your affliction, I may assume that it's not for fun anymore.
If that's just for profit, you could just try to teach yourself that there are other good ways to make a profit. If you really dedicate to it, it might be enough to divert your focus from this very nocive hobby.

These self-control, limiting ourselves and all such phenomenon’s are just imaginary. In reality such things never exists. Who can control himself when hundreds and thousands of dollars are just in front of you and you can win next time.

Maybe your luck helps you and you will be earning so huge amounts within next thirty minutes. When such conditions are there, no one can even think of controlling themselves.

This is a piece of advice to gamblers who can't seems to stop themselves from gambling even after losing the money that are supposed to be their daily expenses for that particular month, it is a sign that indicates you might be addicted to gambling and seeking professional help from counselors is not embarrassing at all, they are the people who are able to help you quit your addiction in gambling.

Leaving into something that's really controlled your mind isn't easy but if you just have one wake up call then leaving gambling will make sense. When you wake up one morning when everything you have especially your family are gone. All what you have is now what you had and if these thing happens to you it's too late for getting back to your senses. No one can help you here even if told you tons of advice but still in the end of the day it's up to you to make this happen.

Doing other hobbies does not mean that the person will be able to forget the gambling immediately. There is still plenty of time outside of his hobby that can lead the gambler to play again. Doing sports is definitely a good hobby and it will be more effective if we combine it with a strong intention to leave gambling.

Yes, involving yourself in sports will be a good start to take away your mentality from gambling. It kinda weird, but I saw others, getting involved themselves in local Church will help them fight the inner demons of gambling.

I guess its a combination of a lot of factors (families, friends and environment) to finally help us quit and kick this gambling habit but it has to start from within the person.

It is very easy to leave gambling, all someone needs to do is believe in himself and assure himself that he can do it and no matter what happens, he will do it. That is all. Have more trust in one’s abilities and determination, giving up gambling will become a piece of cake. He is not a slave to his desires and temptations. Reject slavery no matter what the kind is. Be free and fly high. Read motivational quotes and listen to such speakers, live a life like one should. That is all.

All that you need to quit is to quit because the only way of quitting is to stop doing it. Research has actually show that if you break your constant habit in 21 days without doing it then you will get out of your habit. Addiction is pretty much like a bad habit that needs to be stop and the only way is to stop doing it repeatedly if someone wants to stop

It always make you fool. You become just yourself. You don’t think about what you have with you, what you have in your house in form of family, your kids, your valuables and everything become just an imagination. Things will never work well then because you don’t have any good concern for anything. All you know is your mind addicted towards gambling, earning money from nothing.

the first all of  you have to do that is control yourself, control your emotions and consistent with your decision to leave in gambling.
because these are all your decisions and looking for other activities in the real life.

woww A ripp off, it shocks me so much you lose 10 Bitcoin in gambling, if you still have bitcoin until now, maybe you get rich suddenly and it becomes a profit every day, very difficult to leave gambling, i think with you lose 10 Bitcoin lets you think hard to leave the gambling as soon as possible, I think you've got the answer yourself and much to consult with the people closest to you who have not played the game at all to get carried away in a positive way.

Good thing you are really trying to be eager to leave gambling. Mind you mate it is challenging. It is like leaving smoking because at first, you will really have to fight your own self.
First and best thing is to look for other things that will make you busy. Then step by step you will find yourself leaving gambling.

Are you using exchanges to convert your crypto into your local money? I know you can't do much with cryptos yet, especially if you are not a trader, but I'm sure you can find what to do with fiat money. Buy something special for your loved ones. Try to make them happy with your gifts and even if that happiness lasts one hour it is better than losing money to gambling. Forget what you've lost in the past and rather concentrate on what you can gain in the future.

Probably in your self since i guess you have problem controlling yourself and it is really a serious problem.  I believe, this depends on how their environment especially their parents mold the persons attitude.  There are lots of people who are able to control themselves in face of an enticing chance to win a huge amount of money.  I guess you need to interact to other people more in order to know more about this world.

A lots of influence that's needed to take place, but if you have willingness to achieved you will also find ways, if trying so hard isn't working
for you, then seeking for some serious help with your love ones might help a lot, they can find good medical practitioners too in order to assist your
issue, just do everything that you can to avoid risking more money.

This same problem happened with the many gamblers and i am also one of them. Before some month i am also used to with gambling and lost my huge amount of money in it. So I tried to stop it but i couldn't do it.so first of all i set everyday's limit for my gambling.it means i set the amount of btc ,and after lost that amount I stop to do it for that day. And day by day i deccreased the level of btc. And finally before some month i completely stopped it.so i hope this strategy will also help you.

And for achieving this control, he needs to do meditation yoga or some similar activity that helps a person to remain calm under all sort of situations. It is very easy to say but difficult in reality. Controlling one’s temptations and greed is a very difficult task. But again nothing is impossible is a person becomes truly determined about achieving something. Trying out some other ways of fun or making money, developing interest in other activities can be a huge help.

I can confirm meditation really helps with stress..
Might get you back on track.

Though, if it's a situation as in the OP, it's probably good to find someone to force you to stay out of it when you feel the urge.
Some addictions go really far, beyond  a point where you're able to help yourself without someone intervening.

I can say you can leave gambling if you decide to quit. You cant ever quit gambling until you don't decide, that's the only thing you must do to leave gambling in your life.

You can only quit gambling if you are really committed this time because its hard to do that but if you really want to quit right now you will do it no matter what. Gambling is not good in long term, it can really broke your life if you can’t control your emotion, its not too late to change but bettet to do it now.

self-control and stick to the decisions that have been made, when you've decided to stop gambling, then you should really stop. If you must, stay away from friends who used to gamble with you so you will not be tempted to gamble anymore, ask for help from someone close to you, do other activities that can spend the time you usually use to gamble.

These all are just secondary elements that can have effect on gambler to quit gambling. But what matters most is the concern and will power of that gambler to leave this harmful game.

It will be only he, who can quit it. And once he decide to leave it, don’t delay it and rely on the sports and other hobbies take over the place of gambling and all that. You should quit it as soon as possible and then try these secondary elements for standing firm on your plan.

Rest your mind, do not focus on gambling and do other activities that you think are positive and can forget for a moment about this defeat. That kind of money could be a reason for you to stop gambling. Make an investment instead.

this one is more perfect advice,mate is right here that no one can help you better but YOUR FAMILY THEY ARE THE PEOPLE THAT YOU MUST TRUST TO HELP YOU OUT..always remember that BLOOD IS TICKER THAT WATER..before asking for anyone go to your family first,open to them about what you are involving off,dont be afraid of their criticism because those for sure are true,they will make you feel what you did was wrong and from that realization will start.tell them that dont leave you and dont stop reminding you about stopping gamble

Well, sorry to see it come to this point but if you are 100% serious about quiting gambling, the 1st thing you must do is stop coming to this forum.
I see you were just logged in a few days ago so until you stop coming to this site, it will be impossible to stop gambling.

How not coming to bitcoin forum can make someone to stop gambling?
Not discussing about gambling can take your thoughts of gambling, but it is far away from stopping. Also, OP posted something in cricket prediction thread, and I just don't think he is serious about his situation.

I don't know about meditation, but I think finding someone who can force you to stay out is a great idea. It can be a girlfriend/boyfriend who will make you forget about everything, gambling included. It can be a good spiritual teacher, but be careful with the letter lest you have a problem much worse than gambling addiction.

Anyway, OP, this world is full of people who can propose you an activity which is more engaging than gambling. You just have to concentrate on finding them.

gambling is aso known as being addicted in gambling known as mentally illness so as i suggest to you. you must go throug counselling or go to a doctor can give you some advice to leave gambling and can explain it to you seriously why do you have to quit gambling and after that you can really realize that you have to leave that gambling for being addicted. i am also an gambling person but i really discipline myself not being addicted in gambling.

Hanging out with people who do not gamble do help but if you are already addicted to gambling sometimes you prefer not going to out even with people you love that is why there are a lot of broken families because of gambling. I think the only person who can an gambling addict is himself becauee no matter how we try to help someone if he doesnt want to quit then nothings going to happen.

LOL that is how you can out from the gambling huh dude. There are many people came out from the drugs with the help of Doctors but I do not know any one single person who is came out gambling by counseled them.
Until the money out from the pocket investors will not able to came out gambling fever. May they can reduce the value on betting and playing games. Gradually attract towards the other investment option. With in few months completely able to recover from it.

Serious action is needed to this case, if you really wanted to avoid this activity better to seek for professional help, maybe some medicine that can
give you relaxation and able to free up some damage from how you think is really needed to control and discipline yourself, use the power of will and
accept any counselling to achieved your goals.

I honestly want to say that quitting the gambling game is a very difficult thing. You have entered a very bad addiction era and it has indeed become a consequence for gambling players, every gambling player has agreed the risk when they start playing gambling. Maybe just a few percent who can stop playing gambling, I can not give advice because I have never seen my friend can experience success when he played gambling. And when someone wants to stop playing gambling then they will only have very little chance. The best way you may have to believe to yourself that playing gambling is a bad thing.

The most powerful solution may be the way in which the deep-rooted world can be forgotten. It may be that you try to consult a doctor and ask for tranquilizers that are drowsy in a few days. It seems that this way can at least help to make the avoiding gambling world unavoidable

I think you need to take a rest like above me said and stay away from the gambling activities. maybe you can take a recreation with your family to other places. but you need other people to be on your side to give warning or explanation for you so you don't have time to come to the gambling place or open the gambling sites. you need to defeat this if you really want to leave gambling forever, other people cannot help you if you are not serious to leave the gambling.

Self admission and your action will determine if how you will able to take this problem, no matter how many advise people will tell you it wont reflect if you are not too serious to do the action, leaving gambling is need to be done properly, surrendering your habits to another form of activities or sacrificing everything that will still lead you to play gamble, just like what everyone's said we need to be strict and need to empower what we want to accomplished.

Just for your information, there are de-addiction centers out there which specifically deal with addiction to gambling. I don't know about your location, but I guess such centers may be available in your vicinity as well. And I would advice you to get admitted to one very soon, before you completely ruin yourself financially.

When a person realizes that gambling has given a bad result for his life and he wants to quit it, then he should have the intention to do it, the help from the nearest person may be enough to help him out of his problem. So in this condition the help of experts isn't necessary. Help from experts, in my opinion, is only necessary for people who are addicted but there is no intention to stop it.

It is not easy to divert mind at all when you know you are addicted to something. He needs a help of some professional or someone who loves him a lot. Without moral support, it is not possible at all to come out of such addictions. Family support is crucial here. He needs to discuss his problem openly with the person whom he trusts. If there is no one available, go to hospital and visit a psychologist there.

See a doctor bro, you need professional help now. :) :)

It is very difficult to forget the gambling while doing the other activity, the only option it always plays mobile games without any investment and it makes you feel comfortable because there are huge chances of forgetting the gambling.

We all familiar with the "only you can help yourself" formula but although it sounds good it doesn't work in many cases, and I think gambling is one of them. If nobody around you can help you to quit gambling this does not mean that no one in the world can help you. Keep looking for the right people in your life because sometimes we surround ourselves  with the wrong ones. The OP does want to quit, but he can't without help of others and that's why he's asking for the help here. I don't think the right reply would be "help yourself by your own".

You can't even help yourself so how can we help you, not even your friend and you even don't know us? Before you seek help, try to find a solution yourself since you know yourself, you know how will you able to deal with your self.

If you are eager to stop yourself from gambling, you must have some actions that you have done that will slow down your gambling activities and if that is the dead end for you, seek help from the professionals. The longer you stay in that state, the more you will not change.

Seeing a doctor or seeking professional help is a good idea and you'll learn on how deal with addiction. But sometimes, gamblers are also hard headed that don't follow the prescription and advise of the doctor. He needs to discipline himself and that's not going to be an easy part. What he must do is to set a plan and make that plan into goals so that he will be encouraged of doing others things just to avoid gambling.

That is basic thing. I have heard people asking about please tell me the ways how can I go away from gambling and blah. Brother if someone wants to leave gambling as he certainly knew about the bad aspects of bitcoins. So what to wait for? Just go and leave. Don’t connect with such people who are gamblers. Make a strong hold over your mind and think about the ruined life after gambling.

Even if there are not such centers, he can go to psychologists. Psychologist are easily available everywhere and I don’t think so they would not be able to cope with this situation or treat this patient. Such centers are not often found everywhere which help people out with any kind of addiction. Moreover he should discuss it with someone who really cares about him and is sincere with him.

In my opinion, you better tell your family first about it. Wanting to leave gambling is not that easy if you are really addicted on it. Your family will help, encourage,and support you to look for someone professional in that case. Or go to your dearest someone/most trusted person to help you in your situation. Because i merely believe that if you value someone or your family is really important to you can stop it.

Actually i know someone who is really addicted in gambling but still he made it to the right path in life.

You are in deep trouble, you need to realize that you are probably going to be unable to do this by yourself you will need help not only professional help but you will need the help of your family, I do not know if they are aware of how much money you have lost in gambling but you have no other option but to be honest with them and tell them the truth and ask for their forgiveness only with their support you will be able to overcome your addiction that is out of control.

Others aren't seriously looking at the picture that leaving gambling isn't an easy thing. It's actually a challenge to us, gamblers who really want to get out it. Our family will play an important role for us to become encouraged and out to leave gambling. Just divert your attention on some other things so that it will help you to attain the right thing to do.

Maybe you should find some hobbies, try playing some sports, go to the gym or something like that, if you cant stop maybe you should go to the doctor, if that dont help you and you sitll gamble, try to set limits for you how much are you ready to lose this day, try lowering your amounts every day.

Having more things to do will definitely help, especially this gets you mind out of your addiction or whatever you want to get over with. Doctors are probably a last resort if things do get worse, and likely any addict would be in denial of his addiction so he would never got to a doctor. I'd say the best help would definitely be to tell your family about your addiction or whatever you are going through.

Limits may help, but what is really stopping your from depositing more and more into the casino, effectively breaking your limit? Getting out of an addictions is truly a difficult and hard thing to get over.

Join marathons or be in a riders club. There are so many ways to leave gambling but don't take it so quick, just do it a little by little and take your time. You don't have to rush, give it maybe 15 days is enough for you to have another practice. Lowering the amounts as he gamble can help somehow but still he has to be serious if he wants to quit and he should stay away from any of it.

Will,there is a saying said that if not possible done by physical aspect by preventing all this but nothing improvement ,maybe its can handle by in  spiritual prayers,by means of faithfully praying that all your burdens  in becoming a gambling addiction will become diminished   and all wipe away,and your hearts will going back to purity,and all you can do this by heartly praying to the creator,thats all things will become alright and forgiven.

I must say that for some people who will be able to entrust their problem to their religion will be help by such thinking, people who's having mental
disorder can find comfort inside their own will, doing another activity that will led you to do another thing that will help you gaining other priority
inside your minds, will really help you to stay out with gambling, another form of diverting your attentions and it will be a big help if you are willing
to pay attention and seriously act against your addictions.

By quitting it quick people may think its easy come easy go but it is not like it. Every habit is not easy to leave and especially when it becomes addiction. The only thing that can help anyone to stand for to leave gambling is the will power. Usually we say to avoid it by keeping yourself busy but it can only help in the initial day, after then you have to make your mind that whatever if happens but you will never go back for gambling. The only remedy to addiction is to make yourself strong, there will be a continuous fight of your will power with the addiction at any moment a weakness of will can harm you mission to the failure.

I don't really believe that praying could make you leave gambling, nor it can help you. Though, I believe that meditating could help strengthen your mind, and could strengthen your will to do something.

If you really want to stop gambling, it should be planned, step by step and slowly while quitting if you can't do it quickly. Just like when you are reducing weight, you don't do it quickly since you will have a hard time coping up in lowering your weight in the long run and just send you back to the start. Just do it slowly.

Just like you I almost addicted in gambling but then I ask an assist from my family. Playing gambling is not bad at all the only problem is us if we getting up addicted upon it. You better to leave this old manner before it's too late because it wil only destroy your life and your family also. To get rid of it just do healthy activities like sports.

Gambling is a recreational and entertainment game and because of the money that we bet every round then the game becomes more excitement and thrilling, that is why people is hard to leave because in the long run it will ends on addiction if it is done abusively, so the best thing to do is to slowly leave the habit by focusing other profitable things and what matters most is to have self discipline to not tempted to abuse gambling again.

What type of gambling are your playing? online or offline? if online then you should not use your laptop or desktop to avoid playing gambling just re route your self into something else or if you are playing offline just go with your friends and make fun of them.

There will be no big differences between playing online or offline for an addicted gambler. By not using a laptop, an online gambler may stay out of gambling probably for one or two days but definitely after that he will start looking for his laptop or his friend's one. Until otherwise you will be deviating your focus out of gambling, you will never come out of gambling.

The first one we must need to do to stop gambling activities, the need to find some new entertainment way so that we will never think about going for gambling again and again.

You have a point in your suggestion, Firstly we should ask him which type of gambling he is playing and then we should point out him. I agree with you, if he play online gambling then he should left his laptop and if it is urgent for him to do some work on laptop then use it only for purpose. Otherwise extra activities on laptop he should avoid it and if he is play on real casinos, then change his activities and play other games and spend his time into other things. Of course these things easily work to change his mind and helpful to leave the gambling. 

no matter online gambling or offline gambling, he should trying to avoid from the games, in any of games because this will attract him to come back to gamble. it's difficult to leave the gambling games especially if we are addicting in gambling and we really need helped from other people that know we are a gambler. we can leave from gambling places with a strong will and promise to stay away from gambling places and gambling games.

Then he should sell out his laptop and go to rehab. That's the way to avoid and recover to from addiction of gambling.Even if he found out for some new entertainment it does mean that he will not go back on gambling.My advice is he must seek counselor regarding gambling addiction and he must admit in rehabilitation center.

online or offline is not different if him are addict in gambling. if we are addicting in gambling it is not easy to leave it.
it will be better to find other activity.

It meant, you are not satisfied with our suggestions?
We have also given him good and thoughtful suggestion and it will be helpful and enough for him, if he seriously want to leave the gambling. Otherwise, it is his fault that he is weak and not properly decided to left it. But our activities are best and enough for him, i don't think that he need more better activities than it.

Gambling is still gambling whenever you play. If you like to leave gambling you don't need to be serious it does not help you get out of it. Your determination and desire will be the best traits for you. Somebody or anyone could help you but the final decision is yours.

Whatever form of gambling it would be, believe me things are still bad for you. So better is to quit it as soon as possible. Like this boy, if he wants to leave gambling, he doesn’t need any other person to consolidate him and compel to leave gambling. This is just he who have the nerve to quit it. If he really thinks that this gambling is eating him, just quit it and get aside from everything.

I suggest people who addicted to gambling, don't consider gambling as the money making one if you consider it, then you will be in problems. Gambling is just for fun and there is no comparison with the trading, so people who are considering gambling as serious one better try to divert your mind to other serious issues.

It's not easy to quit gambling and if there are others who are good and was able to quit quickly that's good for them. Will power is the most important thing that a gambler needs even how he is crowded with those people who keep on helping and cheering him to quit but if he's not willing of doing it so that will be useless if he doesn't have that will power.

I agree that you are the one to control yourself, but you should control also your emotions, and think well if what is right. To leave a gambling is very difficult to stop, the best thing you do is just focus on what others advice to you for your good. There is nothing wrong with gambling, but be sure you will not get seriously or addicted, think that gambling is just for fun only.

True leaving gambling when we are already hooked is really hard.  I have witnessed several people that tried to leave gambling but can't keep up with their plan.  They end up playing gambling games again.  I believe it really needs a lot of focus, discipline and determination to overcome the temptation of gambling.

I know that it is really very hard to leave gambling without the help of other people but I have a mindset that nothing is impossible in this world, so one can leave gambling if he would really like to get out of mud. Mostly people are not the man of words or courage that’s why they simply detract from their plans and continue with gambling. If one will really like to leave gambling, he would consult a psychiatrist for that.
