[Cazkys]

To fight any addiction, you should always keep yourself occupied with something: your hobby, sports, socializing, work, books/movies/games, etc. When you are bored you are very vulnerable to addictions, so keep doing something all the time!

This post is one of the best way to fight addiction, be occupied by something in your mind and not only the one you used to be. Engage something that will change your perspective in life and change the way what you are now. So remember fellas, when you gamble, "Gamble Moderately" .

To most people, quitting gambling would be like killing themselves. Some people only do this because they "sort of" want to. Guess what, if you're only quitting gambling just because you feel so, then you're not gonna be able to quit it. Once you get this urge of gambling again after weeks, you'll get back into becoming gambling.

What you should do is focus all your energy into something else while you're trying to forget about gambling. After weeks of not gambling, and weeks of being busy into something, you'll become committed on that something and you wouldn't even be able to picture yourself gambling.

It's going to be hard especially for someone who's already addicted to gambling to put a halt to it permanently. I think first thing to do is to avoid people associated with gambling. Try to socialize more with non-gambling peers. Then try other hobbies that are non gambling related. It starts with a few simple steps but eventually with the help of friends, one can actually quit

It is true but no matter how hard it is if you really desire to stop it , you can stop it.  You will seek tools and other peoples help to get rid of  your gambling addiction.  Psychiatrist is a way to go for advice and other procedure.  This will help you at least to make it easier for your withdrawal procedure.

I think the best is to replace it with something else you will enjoy. Something that involves risk too but not as bad. Otherwise you will just go back to your old ways of gambling half your money away. A new hobby will provide great distraction.

No i don't think that's can work, replace with something maybe work for a while but when you get bored with that new one you will back to gamble again.

I don't think so, cause for me, other hobby to avoid gambling is one of the best way for us to quit in gambling, there are so many things to do, not even one but more kind of things to do, but if that person really loves to risk, I suggest to invest than to gamble, cause for me, investing in a long run can be more profitable than to gamble.

Maybe many ways how to quit gambling for good. Like first thing block some of gambling sites on your router and in this you cannot visit those sites anymore until you unblock it. And then be mindful of things that will help you earn, don't focus on fast earnings this will lead you to gamble your money.

This requires strong will and honesty... It won't be effective if you are the one who block the sites, as there is a tendency that you will visit it again as you know how to unblock it.. Also, there are times that you would consider as "cheat days" which you let your self visit a gambling site, I think that would lead you back to gambling.. The most effective way is your second sentence, avoid thinking about how much you could earn fast with gambling...

For what just spend a money for nothing you get, in fact you can easily stop gambling if you want to stop it's just how you want.

Easy for you to say cause you haven't experience the fact of getting really addicted to gambling all you can do is mumble on what you see in it, but if you have experience it at hand you will know the hardship a person suffer when he becomes addicted with gambling there is no turning back from it and to regain back your true self again you will need assistance from a specialist of addiction.

Quitting gambling for good is very very difficult, especially if you're not really committed. Keep yourself busy and when you find yourself thinking about gambling, Don't.Stop yourself. You have to remember that you can't and won't gamble. Also, educate yourself, because it's a real problem and an addiction, you need to learn about ways on how to get over this. https://healdove.com/mental-health/Gambling-Addiction10-Ways-To-Stop-Gambling-Before-It-Is-Too-Late

Losing all the money/bitcoins will be really hard, i've have had that experience when i'd lost all my coins(i had ~4 bitcoins) back in 2013. since then i try to gamble less.

That's right and I even want to say more because I know that to find a good specialist is not easy, most of them do nothing to help and just take your money. I know there are exceptions but I'm talking about most of them.

Any person is the best specialist for themselves IMO and since quitting gambling is nto an easy task you should engage in it only the best which is you. Only you if you decide so can quit gambling for good, most of those "specialists" just help to quit it for a period of time.

When it comes to psychologists to help deal with gambling, then I think it's a waste of not only time but also money. First of all people must have the willpower to quit this habit or hobby.

If you are already addicted in gambling it is really hard to quit even if you are doing something that is also great, cause if you say ADDICTION it is really what you really wanted to do or to have, but there are a percentage of addiction, some people cannot control themselves and some of us can control themselves, cause I think sometimes it is also depend of the result of their game in gambling. If their gambling stats are good then I guess there is a possibility to them to become more greediness that they will become addicted in to it.

There should be a commitment if you really want to quit from gambling. A weak will to stay away from it will just be broken by some teasing advertisement you see here in the forum. And what others have already said, focusing on more productive things to do will help you get over of gambling. And if you can afford, professional help can do a lot.

The mind is indeed a major factor in stopping and leaving the gambling. Without the determination and disappearing in their minds certainly gambling their desire to stop and leave the gambling will be a mere dream. So indeed very thoughts affect anything we want

Quieting gambling can be easy for some people that are just addicted to it, but for the long term addicted its gonna be a lot more difficult to just stop with it.
I think you just have to speak with it about it with a relative because they can control you and have eyes on you, good luck!

It really is hard to quit on gambling but at least there are lots of people who knows how to handle his addiction and aware on his mind that he is indeed addicted and yes there are specialist that just taking money from their patients but as their profession have for them most of them really want to help you and I think that we are very lucky having that kind of psychiatrist that are very reliable, they have harness skills and knowledge studying it to perfection for a lot of years and I think they will usually help you a lot than destroying their reputation by using it to cheat on their client.

Hello
This is very difficult to get over an addiction. Its quite normal to get addicted since you are always hoping for a huge profit but it will never come. Otherwise the casinos would go bankrupt and gambling would never be there in the first place.
My suggestion is that you seek professional help on the regard. You also require your family's support.
Good Luck!!

I do agree with you there are really some psychiatrist out there just making money on their clients and dont mind what would be the best way to assist them since they  think all about for money but i wouldnt generalize all those psych out there but as  you said there are some who really help and concerned  regarding on your situation and they have also the passion regarding on helping people with psychological problems.
