How to stay away from gambling? suggestions ?

[hua_hui]

The best bitcoin casinos have dozens of slots on provide, with a number of choices for gamers and it is almost impossible to stay away from them.

it depends on you. you are being negative and think it's impossible and that's what make it impossible. lots of addicted gamblers have successfully did it so it's not almost impossible as you thought at all. change your mind and you can do it.

one must first fix when you want to go away from gambling is your mindset you should be able to change it. you should be able to say that gambling is only going to spend money and your time in vain. if you already know that that will be caused. then you will be more easy to stay away from gambling. good luck

but if a person is already addicted, his mindset would be mostly thinking about gambling. How can you ask a person to change his thinking habit if he keep seeing that everything will remind him of gambling. So i still feel that getting professional help is very important as the professional help can diagnose the root of his problem and deal with the corresponding measures.

Gambling is very much like smoking.

Use your brain, control yourself. Both of those habits will destroy you in the end. There is no exception.

Ask this to yourself? "Do i want to live?"

If the answer is "yes" then stay the fck away.

-drinking is fine btw as long as you can control yourself-

keyword is "control"

Gambling and smoking indeed are same in addictive condition, but it is different if you compare like this : can gambling for fun? Yes. Can smoking for fun?of course not.

"Control" is easy word but it is hard to act like that, it is not a concrete solution.

Boht are fun because it depends on the person who's doing it. Now it will only be sad if you lost in gambling and you get disease in smoking.

Both are fun and both have a sure way to destroy your life. If only there are gross images in gambling like in packages of cigarettes. I heard pictures of lung cancer in cigarette packs is a good way to prevent people from smoking. If they have something like that on gambling, people will gamble less. Anyway, self control cannot be trusted if you are already an addict.

This group can be helpful, if you can find a meeting in your local area.

Although I no longer attend myself, the support group did help me stay away from gambling for over 6 years.
I do now gamble from time to time, but it's not anywhere near as bad as it was when I first sought help in 2000.
The best way to stay away from gambling is to give full control of all of your assets to someone you can trust. I'm not sure how practically it is for us BTC and altcoin users though.

It's good that you now can live without gambling addiction, just don't make that "gamble from time to time" to a serious addiction again

In my opinion playing from time to time can be very dangerous for you. Even playing for points in some free games or from faucets may result in back to uncontrolled gambling.
Of course after so many years you know how that work, but I think you still can not feel safe, and will better if you give to someone trusted control over your finances.

I do have someone who has control over my finances, now. If I fuck up, now, there's a rolling pin and some frying pans with my name on them.

Yes, the key is to find someone that can hold you fully accountable for your finances (probably because it affects them too.) Someone that you respect and isn't going to be easily fooled. It should be someone  who is willing to deal out some real consequences if you make the wrong decisions.

ya this thread a lot of advice to stay away from gambling, because we care. but I think they will never practice it, or try to really to stay away from gambling.

Staying away from gambling is easy just find another hobby that you really like and do that.
I as a example found a new game and I'm almost every time doing this in my spare time.

Just focus on your goals, it's earning not wasting.
Control yourself by making yourself busy on other things that we consider as a hobby like cooking, singing and dancing.
You can also make gamble but don't forget prioritize those important things always. Just gamble on your free time.

I dont really understand what you mean by this? If you are addicted there is always free time which is you can sacrifice anything just for you to gamble a lot so you need some distraction to keep you busy so you dont gamble every time although at your free time

Yup! you said it, people mostly try to make an advice to somebody but in themselves they can't really do it! some people here are very good in giving advice that is so true but very hard on applying it on them!

Spend a lot of time with friends is not make you will not gambling, you still place a bet using android phone. 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 gamble.

Even people with strong religious beliefs could prefer gambling over not if they're addicted. Unless their willpower is that much more powerful, and they're addicted to their religion even more than they are to gambling.

Don't you think the reason why they got addicted to gambling is because they lost control of themselves? And now you're telling them to 'control' themselves?

It might be easy to say for a normal person to an addict to take control. But control's the very thing that they lost. It doesn't work that way, buddy. If someone's there to help them control themselves, then maybe that 'control' will work.

If they can't control themselves then they are dangerous.  Just tie 'em up in a hospital and don't let them out till they got it:)

LOL my point was they can't control themselves to not gamble. Not like they got insane or smth. They just can't stop gambling.
