I am not a gambling addict so there will be no problem if there is no gambling for years too.But is is only for the people who seriously addicted to gambling so we always need to be aware of our limits while gambling or else our life will get too complicated.

I am also not an addicted gambler but surely I won't stay out of it for so long, like 1 year. I like the game of poker and blackjack and few others, so I am addicted to the gameplay not to make money out of it. So, whenever I get free time, I come and play and enjoy the game. The maximum duration I was away from any form of gambling is 25-30 days approx., I didn't made a count so ranged it.
You may be new in gambling therefore you are not addicted to gambling, otherwise those people who spend a  little more time in gambling they become addicted and then find it hard to stop gambling at all. For example i am playing gambling for more than 20 years, therefore now i have become addicted and i really find it too much hard to stop gambling so easily, i even cannot think about to stop gambling for a little time. Even i will try to quit gambling i may only be succeeded for a little time.

Yes only those people who are not addicted to gambling can stay away from gambling otherwise it is very difficult not quit gambling or even to stop playing gambling for a little time. I am playing gambling for a long long time and therefore now i find it hard to stop gambling, Although i past i tried for few times to quit gambling but i only succeeded for few months and then when find a suitable condition for playing gambling then i start playing gambling again.

As long as I want I have been avoiding gambling for almost 6 months now.
Good one! You are able to avoid gambling for 6 months, you are an MVP. I've been dealing with gambling addiction since and I even said that I can't live without it before.

When ever I feel like I want to gamble I would start to play some video games or watch some movie to keep me entertain,
Control is the way to stay without gambling. This is what I do when I'm craving to gamble but now that I have conquered this feeling, well I can say that I'm ready and I can stay even without gambling for a month or so.

And sometimes I would just keep my wallet away from me or cash out all of my bitcoin so that I couldn't gamble.
When I have spare money to gamble I'm not that selfish to give myself a good entertain if I'm sure with what I'm betting.
I am also shocked that how a gambler is able to control himself from gambling for six month. I think these would be days not the months but if it is really a truth then this person should be appreciated for the work he has done. Like you, many gamblers instead majority of the gamblers can live without gambling for a week. This is the limit and beside this limit, they start begging to people to take them away to casinos where they can live their life by gambling.

I am sure either gambling has dealt with you before or it has dealt with someone very close to you. It is very funny though, knowing that the gambling industry is one booming industry, which totally means there are so many people gambling each and every day nonstop while making money into the gambling industry's pocket.

The crazy thing about the whole thing though is that, it is better to avoid from the start than to get in and find it hard to get out. It is like drug, so for me, once you know you cannot control yourself normally, it is better not to even gamble at all.
You are right, gambling industry is flourishing on daily basis nowadays. The reason is the increase in distance and loneliness people are suffering in present era due to technology. It is true that now we spend less time with our close ones and have no one to talk with. We cannot share our pain and sorrow with anyone, try to deal with it on our own and become depressed with time. Then we try to find relief and go for such things as gambling.

Accessibility nowadays is very present in almost everyone's lives. It's interesting how it makes easier the contact with those who are far from you, but at same time it makes the contact with those who are near you harder, as people are too connected to the internet all day long, becoming more antisocial.

It indeed help gambling's industry to grow and to move even more money. And those who are too lonely on their lives will find confort in gambling, surely for them, after gambling becomes a routine's activity, it will be almost impossible to stay without gambling for a long time.
Just a reflex of an unbalanced life...

Some of the gamblers are addicted so much to these casino games so they can't stay without playing even a single day.

I can stop completely without gambling and can control myself.

How about you and how long you can control yourself for not playing these games?
it is very up to me and seriously saying that i can stay any longer with my entire life not to gamble if i want to. i can do that i am a gambling person also but if the people around me telling that i i would atop gambling i can do that because i am a disciplinary gambling person.

This is one of those questions that make you stop an ponder for a bit. Undecided

I would say I do not know. Since when people don't have any funds or eventually run out, then they stop.
Cause how else would they continue to wager when gambling without a bank roll?

If I had to guess I would say about a month, since I was at a time my debts were more important to myself pay off and gambling was definitely not a priority, unlike most gamblers who do not have control do not see it this way. Roll Eyes

Cant deny with this thing which accessibility is one of the reasons why a gambler wont easily leave gambling which almost surrounds us do really give the chance for us to engage with it easily.We do know we are already on a high-tech era which chances is high to play again and temptation will really be high. Self control is needed and discipline if you cant handle your self then you cant stay for too long.

When we already learned that we can't really guaranteed winnings in gambling, we will take the fun as a consulation, that's why we should atleast enjoy playing so even we didn't win the fun will be woorth it, at the mean time since I'm into ROS it's been long that I didn't play.

As long as i'm busy with PUBG and biking, I can last without gambling and I've been doing that for how many months now. You only need to focus on other things and most important you must love what you're focusing with so that gambling won't come into your mind.
PUBG makes me busy too, as well as Mobile Legends  , but if I have only minimal time and I liked to play , i still make some time even a few rounds with lower bets since we all knew how we should hold at the moment our alts till they pump again, maybe many limits their gambling as this season of reds and just tries new online games which somehow more exciting to do so.


Mobile legend and other games can bring the gamer to addiction. Worst thing that might happen is that it may also be used for gambling.
Anyway, I can limit myself in gambling because it i not my addiction. Self discipline is very impotant.
I think addiction is not only of gambling, there are also other things we see in our lives to which people had become addicted. For example, some people become addicted to mobile phones and the people around him think that he is mad nothing else. Same like most of the people have become addicted to Facebook. You are saying this that I can work in limits when I will gamble. I think you are saying this just because you haven’t become addicted to gambling.

People who are addicited to gambling, it is not possible to them to quit the gambling. Even after loosing it is not possible for them to stay away from the gambling, they will borrow the money from other for gambling again.

I am not someone who is addicted to gambling, so i can endure indefinitely that cannot be determined, because i gamble just for fun not because of the hobby or routine that is daily played.
Maybe for those who are addicted to gambling, they will not be able to survive without gambling even in just a day.
I think gambling is the same as drugs and cigarettes, when we are addicted then we are hard to take it off.

I don't think so, everyone commits mistake and this people who are addicted in gambling has still a chance to correct their mistakes.
Usually newbie can easily be addicted in gambling but as they mature they will realize that they should have to control themselves to enjoy even though they will lose money.

Personally because i am not really a gambler, of course i can stay long or forever perhaps. Gambling for me is just a leisure, so maybe bet sometimes in a very occassional situation, just for fun maybe with family and friends, but it i could stand without gambling too. We should not make it a hobby because that’s the way to addiction direction just stay in control, so that with or without it, you can stand by😊

I think what OP means about this is not actually you are going to quit but you will try your best on how long you can stay away from gambling. It is like one of the way on how you could quit gambling, you are testing yourself if you could resist the urge on playing gambling, if you succeeded and found yourself not interested in gambling anymore, then you are free.

That was good but it is not that easy for the gamblers who has been playing for a long time. Anyone could stand without it if only a person truly wants to stay out of it and focus himself with the other things around and spending time with her family.

I can stop completely without gambling and can control myself.

How about you and how long you can control yourself for not playing these games?
In my own point of view, i can control myself from playing gambling even for a long time by finding things to do like playing basketball or going to the gym rather than thinking to gamble. It is great to know how would you to control yourself because if not you are experiencing extreme addiction in gambling.
