Find a new hobby to replace gambling. Try working out, learning to code, video games or something like that. I wouldn't recommend gambling with play money, the best thing to do is do some new hobby whenever you feel the urge to gamble. Just keep it up and the urge will eventually go away.

Yes, this is the only option that will lead to success in order to quit gambling. If a person has another more interesting occupation, then gambling just will not be interesting to him.

However, it is not as easy as it sound. Just like many of us who are used to using computer every day. How is it possible for us to survive without access to internet forever? Some things have become their habit and it is very hard to change.
We have to get rid of "not as easy as it sounds" and turn it into "I can do it". Everything will be done, the most important is our mindset. If we keep thinking it's hard then it will always be difficult for us. We have to think that it's easy and we'll find the easiest way to do it.

Everything can be done if we want to do it. Sometimes if we cant do it with this way, we can always try another way around. Sometimes the way that peple suggest might not work for us. Example like me, I dont think that I can stop that is why instead of stopping right now I only play with a small amount so that I can have fun and enjoy it
I used to say one thing, change your way but never change your goal. It is true, when a person becomes truly determined about something, nothing can stop him from achieving it. But in your case, it seems to me that the goal has changed. If you were thinking of quitting gambling, in that case you have not but now you play a safe gambling.

Perhaps but atleast I wont lose money when I gamble but that is for the best. Perhaps I lack of determination but I dont think spending alittle amount of money is going to hurt me anyway. I enjoy playing and I am having fun with a small amount so everything seems to be much better for me then to spend alot to play like everybody else

From my experience giving up from gambling is not a easy if you are addicted toward the gambling. You need a counslar to stop the gambling it just like the addicted towards the drugs and you just choice the other option to deviated your mind from the gambling
I won’t oppose you. In fact I will suggest the same. It is good to consult some specialist as soon as possible. Addicts cannot recover all alone by themselves. They need some sort of support and guidance. A counselor is the best option for such a person. He must also be honest with himself and his doctor.

Maybe for those who got addicted to it,
But for me who are only playing or gambling when I am bored,
It is not that hard specially if we could find something else that could make us busy.

It is for sure that it is hard to quit gambling for those who are addicted on it, they just can't leave gambling because they want to win all back the loses that they do have in gambling, they just can't accept the fact that they lost most of their money on gambling. So, no matter how much we convince them to quit, they will just keep on doing gambling until they get what they want.

I want to believe that too before. I started with just having fun and then it became something else.
I guess it depends on pride of each person.
I am not the person who wants to lose so I always want back what I have lost and maybe more after that. I found it out when I cant stop it until nothing is left in my account. Well it is really a gamble.

Compare addiction of gambling in other addictions like drugs, smoke, woman. All of them is hard to resist, these are all temptations and once you used to it this will be your addiction. And it's like you can't live your daily life if you will not gamble for this day. It is hard if you don't have any courage and there are no people that are helping you and encouraging you that you can do it.

That addiction would surely have one result, which is to ruin your life. Usually when you are addicted with drugs you can also be addicted to girls, smoke, and gambling so drug addiction is the worst. Gambling addiction is hard but you can solve your problem if you will listen the advise of people who care for you, they will help but it's you will have to do your best to quit gambling for good. It's not fun anymore when you are addicted, in addition you are wasting your time and money.

All addictions are probably something that could destroy your life. In a way, it would make someone useless and can't really function well. It would be hard to consider that someone is not addicted but really is, it cannot be really seen easily but recognizable when you observe someone.

Yes an addict requires the help and support of others. It can be tough for an addicted person who may also be under depression and other problems to approach professional and accept the fact that they need treatment. Thus their family and friend support becomes bigger in importance. If they are seriously willing to get rid of the addiction then they should approach professional help which can really help them cope up with it.

I don't understand why did you put woman in the list. I think addiction to women is really a good thing which can distract you from gambling. This what I would recommend to gambling addicts: find a girlfriend, live a life, and you'll see that gambling is not so interesting after all. Try to spend money you spend on gambling to buy presents for your girlfriend or to take her to some good restaurants or to take her to concerts. Giving up gambling is easy that way.

The same thing happened to me as well. I cant quit and I keep on coming back. For some people like us it is hard to quit gambling because it might affect ourselves. It is better to keep playing but with small amount so that we wont really risk alot of money even if we need to keep on playing. It is the best thing for us that cant stop playing

Exactly, it is very difficult to divert ourselves once we are addicted to it. I tried much time not to invest in gambling but many time I started investing into gambling because sometimes we feel that gambling is unforgettable job though we are losing in it.

Giving up something is not easy especially gambling. Gambling is game where there are many people played and become addicted on it. Yes, gambling is that. Gambling makes people become addicted and when that person start to play gambling I'm sure that there are big possibilities that that person will be more addict on it. So, it is so hard or difficult to quit gambing, I think if he wants to quit on playing gambling it will take time for him. Step by step process of making it buddy. You need to take your time to face it for you to conquer.

the first mistake occurs when we first play gambling. for example is when we consider gambling as an income then we will very easy to get addicted. but if we only consider gambling as an entertainment then I am sure this will be solved easily. so it all starts from the initial goal that we believe.

Giving up on gambling is a difficult thing, as you say, giving up on gambling will take a long time, bit by bit. So basically if we want to give up on gambling is we must have a strong intention and patience. The impatient gambler will never make it to stop gambling.

It’s not easy especially if you have problems with it. What you describe is a problem of self-control and that usually has deep roots in yourself.

Live casinos are obliged to self-exclude those who ask for it. Then there are quite a few online casinos that have the option of self-exclusion for a certain period of time, or forever, for those who want to. The problem is, smaller casinos don’t have it and I think none of the cryptos casinos have, as it would be virtually impossible to implement (you only need an email and a crypto address to deposit so you could change it to play again).

Your only weapon is self-control and you are alone in this.

Its not easy to give up gambling if you already addicted its difficult to give up this kind of habits. Because gambling is everywhere you can gamble if you want and you are free to gamble. But there ways that helps you to give up in gambling especially when you already addicted, like find something replacement activity or go with your friends and try and keep busy to not go gamble and make decision to yourself, this make you feel easy.

There is no need to give up gambling and if you can't afford your losses then you have to reduce your monthly budget or play with play money.

Everyone has its preferred activity and I can't see why it shouldn't be gambling, except you bet more than you can cope with.
To give up from gambling, reducing the monthly budget can work. As long as we continue to reduce the budget each month, reduce the budget every month, the monthly budget of our gambling is 0. It is difficult, but it all depends on you.
That is an interesting approach, most people try to leave gambling suddenly but it may be a good idea to do it slowly so by reducing your budget gradually you will not suffer from the effects of withdrawal that are so common among those that are addicted to something.

This is no difference in controlling yourself.  I do not think reducing budget monthly is better way, after all it comes to the person decision alone.  I agree it is hard and harder than we thought but isn't it much better to get a diversion than exposing ourselves to the tempatation?  Anyway, I am not saying that this one is not effective but I guess exposing ourselves to the temptation will certainly make it harder to give up gambling.
The approach proposed could work, while leaving a gambling addiction for good may be the best option people are going to suffer withdrawal symptoms so it may be a better idea to take things slowly and leave the addiction to gambling in a slower way in which you start to progressively drop gambling until you get to the point where you do not gamble anymore.

Yes, giving up on gambling is really hard. It's like an addict that deep in our blood. If you have nothing to do in freetime? 95% you gonna think back to gambling , which you're trying to give up, for sure. You will think this is the last time and this kind of last time repeat over and over and over again.

if you find you are in trouble to get out of gambling , then better to looking for gambling healing program. it is more effective rather than when you should fall and get up again and again struggling to get a real exit door.

they will guide you into a brighter future , of course it has a price . give a shot on it, go ahead!
