Find another hobby or work more often to keep you occupied.

Yeah i'm agree with this, find hobby like gaming on pc it's good for killing time. so you don't remember your gambling. and also find some friends go hang out together and find some work that earn you real money. not waste your money on gambling.

i am getting addicted to gambling.And i am loosing a lot of money.I am loosing what i can't afford to lose.its sad that when you start loosing its just busted me again and again.at last i gamble for fun but now when i am getting addicted i am loosing too much.

Any suggestions are welcome  Smiley

BruceLee, too bad you are not as lucky as jackie chan who won 500btc as posted on one thread. Cheesy Anyway, if you mean you are  on bitcoin betting sites (I suppose it since it's posted here) then convert your btc to fiat money as soon as possible you get them so you won't have something to use on gambling.

Golf Golf and more Golf has helped me.  I have an addictive personality by
nature so for me I need to stay busy doing other things. Also things that
can get my adrenaline going help feed that need for excitement. For me its
video games as I'm not a sky diver or anything crazy. Stay away from the
booze and stay busy helped me from constantly wanting to check football
spreads lol.

Ughhh golf classy sports activity, i dont think it affordable for everyone to do it.
But video games was 100% help to forget everything no exception for gambling and its affordable.
So lets play video games to forget your loses!

you can't completely stay away in gambling easily specially when you used to do it oftenly. i suggest you should only gamble moderately and slowly stay away from it. also find another hobby you can play with, either playing MOBA games or play a sport or whatever that you will find fun except gambling.

If you are gona be so addicted about gambling I suggest you to seek some help from somebody. Or I don't know if you have a girlfriend say to her that she need to be strict to you about gamble, so that you can't play.

Yes I agree.

I sometimes get the feeling of not wanting to stop but I try to step back from it and try to keep myself occupied with something else for the next couple of days after that.

I'll do anything to keep myself busy with other stuff so I don't get the urge to start losing more money by gambling.

When I was addicted to smoking I just told to my friends to keep me watching what I am doing. That I don't smoke. So that helps.
Just ask for someone to help you.

That is a easy answer to just find another hobby, but that would be that easy to take other hobby.
If I was addicted I will just ask for some one to help me or control me.

IMO the best to avoid gambling is find another hobby that is less harmful, like playing soccer for some hours ( if you are student ) or like reading newspaper more often than not or such ( if you are adult ) .. such ideas seems funny, but trust me they work when it comes to quit gambling.

Find something else to keep you busy

Always stay busy when you think that you got a gambling problem, go outside, go for a run when you get the urge to gamble.

So in order to get rid of one addiction he needs to get addicted to something else? Thats so like US government when they started giving meth to heroin addicts.To cure ones addiction they need to stop it completely by either focussing in other temporary activities or self help like gym.Simply getting addicted to something else just wont help.
