I agree, we must keep ourselves busy on doing productive things instead of devoting it in gambling. The more we gamble, the more our chances of losing is high. Let's remember that gambling is for fun only.

Easy to say but very hard to do, I agree that we should keep ourself busy with something else that take our focus away from gambling, but the fact that we get back to gambling almost everyday I think its very difficult to put aside for the most part of the gamblers. I am trying to do it but so far not really successful although some very little improvements.

First of all we have to make our mind and have to accept our loses there, stop chasing them with hope to get recover and find something interesting to do offline because it is so much hard to stay away while we have easy access to internet.

There are many reasons for gambling. Not everyone gamble to 'get rich' in fact most people have other problems and excessive gambling is their 'cure' for these problems.

To know what type of activity will help you 'stay away' from gambling you first need to identity why you gamble:

1. You crave for adrenaline rush and excitement?
¤Instead of gambling you could pick adrenaline pumping sport: racing, climbing, parachute jumping etc.

2. You gamble to forget about life problems?
¤The answer is: seek help with professionals, talk to your family and friends.

3. You gamble because you are bored and lonely?
¤Find something you always wanted to do, beside gambling - find other people passionate about the same thing, make friends.

4. You gamble to get rich, solve your money problem?
¤You have to know that odds are against you, gambling is not a good way to earn money.

ya try to forget the defeat, then try to go out of the house with some of your friends.
I'm sure if you do it every day, the next day at least you have a little bored with gambling.
yes essence if you go back to gambling I hope it was just for fun.

Like others have stated, find another hobby. I'm a gambler and enjoy it, but was in a situation like yours. At the casino every night, bookies during the day. I was either flat broke, or rich for a day or two before giving it back. Real sad existence. I started investing in silver and buying coins and bullion. I read books and watched videos etc, and that was my gamble. I rode the 2011 wave up to $49 and sold half my silver at $42, wish I'd dumped it all. Last year I started buying again in the $14-$15 range and will continue to accumulate while the price stays under $20. Not giving advice to do this, just what's worked for me.

I still gamble, but maybe only once a month or weekend in Vegas.

It depends on how much engrossed you are about the activity you are doing. If your time and mind is occupied enough, you will have no time to spend for gambling. Do it long enough, you will be forgetting about gambling soon. If it does not work, you may need to really seek the help of a professional. It may be the only way to quit gambling addiction.

I think for me its cant help because already tried when i was addicted on the gambling.. i am always ignore my friends.. even they want to have some fun in ktv bar or videoke bar with girls.. maybe i think it will help if we go to psychiatrist because honestly they can recommend best  solution for addiction..
But as of now never tried it but i heard  this is the best way to stay away from gambling..

The best way stay away from gambling is that you have realize by yourself that is just wasted money and that it will be bad for yourself in the future.
So it is not that worst if you are losing some money but you must dont make yourself poor.

Realizing the truth about their actual position with the gambling is not possible for an addicted gambler.
They themselves believes they are doing perfectly on their motivation towards making good fortune from gambling.

It was easy to stay away from gambling to not gamble ,try to get busy on some things or if you are at online anytime ,try exploring new things reading articles just like in this forum .you can stay away now .relax ,focus and determination is all you need.

[zerocharisma]

You can easily stay away from gambling, first if you still have the money on your wallet better convert it to fiat so that you can't use it for gambling online. If that doesn't help since you can still gamble with fiat.
Better to buy something that could really get with your attention.

Some game or ps4/xbox perhaps?? It's actually hard for them to do that. Especially nowadays that you can gamble using you phone as long as it has internet. They are prone to temptation and keeping a hard time to control the urge. The best way is little by little or maybe step by step, on getting out of it.

for those who have their livelihood is very difficult to play gambling .gambling part of the hobby. many people who think that by gambling one can feel great joy. I found no way to stop ourselves to play gambling.

well i do know people that are so used to gamble that it is really part of their lives. they have to gamble everyday and they able to find private gambling den to play even it is illegal.

Practically an addicted gambler just need an environment which gives him the feel of gambling and the feel of making profit. Just a stimulated way of gambling like video simulators will feed their gambling addictions without spending into actual gambling.

That must be a very nice idea. Like we are having trial accounts in Forex trading, we must have pseudo gambling environments to make an addicted gambler entertained with that. This will definitely help them to stay away from gambling without their knowledge.

Gambling is only for matured and strong people, if you don't belong to them you should not try gambling as I am pretty sure about the positive negative effect in your life, it is true that we need to keep ourselves busy in doing some productive things like trading and invesment than devoting our time fully in gambling.

You have to control yourself . It will be your choice if you really want to stay away from gambling , other people doesn't have a responsibility with your problem maybe we can give you suggestions or advise but it will be your choice if you still want to gamble the only suggestion i can give to you do not go in any gambling or casinos to prevent yourself . Goodluck dude .

Due to the reason of lack of self-control, most of the gamblers getting addicted to it. So expecting a self control from a gambler to stay himself away from gambling is completely meaningless.

It is not so easy to stay away from gambling like what you are saying. Others also advice what you've said but they are still coming back in gambling. At the end it really depends on the attitude of one person if he really can stay away or not.

Get a hobby that need much time like fishing, play online games and do gym. That will make you forget about gambling and in the end you will forget about gambling.

Playing online works for me like league of legends but the result is addicted in league of legends and sometimes 18 hours i am playing league of legends.. until now while im reading some thread here in our forum im playing..

I don't have an idea about League of Legends, is that gambling? if that is then that is bad, the way you play it online that you need to exert 18 hours a day just to do it is not normal and will cause addiction to you. Your health might even at risk, so you better balance your life.

League of Legends is actually an online game (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA)) a strategy game. Actually playing online games makes your better and keep away from gambling but don't abuse when you play on  computer for a long hours.

I don't recommend gamblers to migrate from gambling to play online games. You can bet on MOBA games like Dota2. If a gambler becomes addicted to an online game, then he just made himself more into gambling. He'll probably end up betting on his matches. He'd think he's good enough to bet on.

A gambler can go focus on other things except on anything where there's money involved.

I set my own limits to what I can bet and how much overall I can gamble with every week.  I stick to it with no exceptions.  I think if you will set limits like this, you'll find that gambling can be a fun activity and it's okay to lose this small amount.

stay away....1 or 2?
!)  You aren't yet hooked with gambling.  Yes it is really easy to stay away if you wouldn't want to gamble.  Just think of a food that doesn't fit in your taste.  Its just like that if you don't like that particular food well don't eat it.
2) You are already addicted with gambling.  Staying away from gambling depends on how you control and discipline yourself.  if you can keep your pocket full for gambling then you are still in control of yourself it so happens that you keep your pocket full for gambling.  This will not change overnight it has to be reduced step by step by limiting the amount that you are taking with you to gamble.  Just always remember that you are always in control of yourself.
