How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ?

[bajing]

Put your money into moneypot and lock it into an investment.

I think it is not a good suggestion for one to come out of gambling or staying away from gambling. Because once you put money in moneypot, funds are very easily accessible whenever one want to gamble and they can easily start gambling again. One shouldn't have any account with any gambling sites to come out gambling habit.

As you said the best idea is to play out door games lot and make real friends lot to spend time out ( but not facebook friends ) or spend more time with your family.

spend a lot of time with friends is not make you will not gambling, you still place a bet using android phone.. i think it's will not work, all of this is back to yourself even though you stay on the pc almost everyday if you dont want to gamble.. you will not gamble

LOL how about if we open the gambling site ? not thread about gambling,
certainly we will continue to play again, I often see the thread in gambling but I rarely gamble, the point is not with it

Yeah i agree with you. try find your hobby in real life and hang out with your friends, it make you to forget your gambling stuff. and if you want permanently stay away from gambling, i suggest you to delete all your gambling account.

This is the worst advice i've ever seen tbh

I would recommend taking a basic, boring, bland math class that would explain why playing with negative house edge equals bleeding money. Maybe it finally make the rational part of your brain take over.

You can stay away from gambling by vacation with your family in other country and spend more time for it.
If your are addicted to gambling i think this is the one way that i saw from some people that fix his or her life by doing it.
But if you have no money for vacation to other country you can try to vacation in province or other places that you cant see
or far in Any gambling.

Indulging yourself in sports is a very good thing.
Fact is the moment you are in a competition with something or someone, you are improving yourself, by focussing on the "Goal"

This goal will take your thoughts away from gambling.

[Daijess]

Maybe work on your physical health. Start exercising/working out with some goal to reach like losing xx amount of weight. Or maybe walking/running/biking/swimming with a goal to be able to reach XX mi/km or whatever. Or train to be able to compete in some  amateur walking/running/biking/swimming event. Or take up an organized team sport to help give you more structure to help keep you at it.

Any other alternate time passing entertainment will help you to get rid of your addictions.
But the self disciplines and support from family members are more important for deviating our concentrations towards a new entertainments.

Just take a break mate... You'll be fine without gambling.

[Cashew]

Just go watch youtube. That has been the cure for me.

[sillug]

Have a beer mate. You'll get over the addiction.

Moneypot has an awesome lock-out plan, you can set a plan where you cannot withdraw, no matter what, for x amount of days.

You could also set yourself up a proxy that blocks out all gambling sites. Maybe a backdoor can be made, so you can link it up with GAuth, and get a one time code to access some site.

I'm also sure you could ask one of the trusted escrowers in the forum to hold your bitcoin for you for a short period :-/

lah do positive things like exercise, and keep the things that can make you want to gamble, make the idea that gambling can ruin your life and the people around you

boring? u say it for yourself. uh, whatever, I don't wanna raise another war between religion and science again. do both, who prevent? no need to chose. learn about Taoism, Yin-Yang, 5 elements, sins,... is good in many ways, many fields, it cures the root of issues, not just top.
if u don't get rid of the issue root, u can stay away of this things but soon fall for others.

It's sad gambling has worked out like this for the op, gambling is ment to be fun but when you start to develop a problem it's not good. The only thing you can do is walk away from gambling for a while if you can't control what you are spending. If you want to still gamble set yourself a pot of money to use when it's gone don't top up until you can afford it. You never want to chase a loss
