To quit gambling is to quit yourself

[andreijoaquin]

gambling starts with a simple betting game but once a player starting to get addicted, that's the moment were their lives begins miserable. For those who cannot control themselves makes it difficult to resist with gambling until such time they lose everything and become worthless. I agree there are really cases where a gamblers losses his mind and commit suicide, this is a serious issue that is difficult to address.

Guys, I know that many of you have already discussed this issue regarding quitting gambling as it is addictive, and I know that this thread is just like any other one. But forgive me because I am really sick of seeing people committing suicide because they are in big debts. I would like to speak my mind.

So, guys. Quitting gambling has to be done by quitting yourself. What I mean by that statement is that you should no longer be yourself or what you are. You are now a man of greed and addiction. Who was the person you were before you start gambling? Perhaps you were addicted to something else. Perhaps you were just a normal man living a normal life. Now you are a different person. What I want you to do is that you should be aware that gambling too much will make you lose yourself. Second off, you should sit with yourself and write down the negative effects of gambling. Do not be like "What if I win next time, what if I get lucky next time." No, that is not you who is talking but your greed. Do not give yourself false hopes because "What if" is a term used to talk about unreal action in the past or the future. You can neither change the past nor be accurate about what future will be like.

Then you should practice positive self-talk. Fill yourself with positiveness. Have a strong willpower and determination because believe me, once you are committed to something, you will attain it. If you want to give up gambling, then you can do it because other people and I gave it up.
I used to gamble a lot with my friends and I would be lying if I said I did not learn many things. But the negative effects overcame the positive ones. I took a decision to stop gambling. I filled my time with various activities. In time, I started to forget about gambling. It is like moving on. If you want to move on, get yourself from the routine you used to be in. Your brain is functioned about a certain routine. You will find it hard to adapt to the new routine, but believe me, in time you will get used to it.

I hope you guys achieve what you aspire. And I hope this thread will help you, even though I am sure I am going to get negative feedback. But it is okay, I am open to everything. Have a lovely day, Hadoooken!

Yes to quit gambling is to quit yourself,because if you quit gambling yourself will be no to gambling also as long as you decide to do it you can do the quiting. Because gambling is not good especially when you're an addict you just.

Greediness should be keep a side always buddy. When you want to play the betting or dice games you need to be careful on otherside of the amount you have with you. If you simply invest your fund continuously without getting profit.
Please confirm yourself that you are not fit for gambling at all.
At that you need to quit from the gambling else the effect will be so harder.

For those people who able to withstand the negative effects of gambling, then good for them. But saying things like you mentioned requires social help as different people especially those who are now being fall to the trap of gambling can not be saved by themselves alone as it was now out of their control. It's easy to say that "they must do this, that or anything else" in order to quit gambling but we can never understand what's into them as it was now affect their inside stuff. Of course, they will not seek help that's why it needs an automatic response from the community.

But on the other hand, there are good effects too that a person will experienced the worst case scenario during their gambling activity because sometimes it will make a good road for realization as they don't want to happened it again. But sometimes that is not the case, that's why it requires community help as secondary foundation that will start at family, close friends etc.

Greed and fear, in the end is still human nature. Stop by yourself, go also by yourself, know how much is new is hard.

[orions.belt19]

Its not easy to quit gambling, I have to agree that some people commit suicide because of this addiction but for me you cannot do this alone better to have someone that can be on your side in times like this. It takes time to do so, but if you really want to quit gambling you will start right now.

People commit suicide because of their debts which sprouted from their addiction. There are many ways to quit an addiction and therapy is one of them. There are group discussions which allows a person to cope. Addiction can't be cured overnight and it's a long process which one would undergo.

I can't speak for myself since I had no similar experience but perhaps what OP was trying to say is that in order to quit gambling, it should come from you. Even with all the therapy in the world, you won't be able to quit gambling if you don't help yourself. You can spend millions in therapy, or try out all the methods to quit, but if you won't do it for yourself then no one else can do it for you.

[mrcash02]

For those who have lost everything in gambling suicide isn't a solution, it's just a way to avoid the reality and the responsibilities. These people should just start again from zero, building their patrimony again and stop gambling. I agree with OP's point, addicted ones weren't always addicted, and they should try being who they were before the problems start appearing on their lives. Back to the origins to find the answer for the soul's conflicts.

Sucide are less it's only the people who are in huge debt and there is no solution as to how they will recover their funds or even be able to repay it
Normally as you said start your life from zero it isn't as easy as it sounds many quit but after a while start gambling because they feel there life incomplete and have a feeling their luck might have returned and finally start gambling again

That is why they should go back to their origins and find the answer for their soul's conflicts, to find what disturbs them internally and solve it.
This way their life won't be incomplete and they won't need to fill their routines with addictions anymore.

[LuanX3]

Quit yourself means destroying yourself, apparently from what OP has suggested. However, in my opinion, this is quite hard to do as you are totally changing what you are it seems. But that is not possible, you are who you are. The best thing is still to just remove the negative traits you possess such as the addiction to gambling and all other negativeness. This is like you built a house, but the toilet is not working so you decide to destroy the whole house just to fix it.

[jrrsparkles]

It looks easy to tell but it is not that much easy to quit from gambling that is why we called it as an addiction.SO it needs special care with our will power to get out from that.So if someone addicted to gambling then it is impossible for them the get out themselves someone need to support them to get out.

Many people compare quiting of gambling with quitting of smoking, although these both are same but I think gambling is making more negative effect. If someone is quitting gambling, he must ensure his mind to keep away from all such stupid fuds and convinces that can help those people get back to gambling track. We must quit at once, although it is hard but is not that much harder as well.

Smoke addiction can really give you some serious health issues but we all know that this effect would only come out for how many years of smoking which people wont really mind of on quitting unlike on gambling where effects can really be felt since the primary target of this addiction is to wreck you out towards your finances that can put your whole life into mess in a short period of time which this is the difference among both addictions.

[8Habits]

I feel you mate and thanks for sharing your thoughts and advice about quitting gambling addiction. When you are addicted to gambling, it really becomes a way of life and it is hard to change that as you really get used to it but it is achievable with firm want to change and the help of your peers.

[hahay]

Yes because to leave gambling deliberately for me is very heavy, so let it stop by itself. There are times when we are saturated doing the same routine every day, but in gambling it can be left by itself.

[gabmen]

How can you leave something like gambling by itself when it will pretty much consume you and your money if you don't don't fo something about it. You have to realize that change should come from you and that you should really want to quit if you have a chance of recovering from addiction

[Qartersa]

I think it is wrong to associate yourself with the gambling addiction. We are not our mistakes. It just so happens some have gotten themselves too immersed about what they are into. Nevertheless, it is not the end all be all. Some greatly recovers from reaching down bottom. I am very much positive that when people are positive about something, they reach great heights. So please avoid saying that when you decide to quite gambling, it is as if you quit yourself. They are two distinct subjects. It is already a battle to withdraw from something you have acclimatized yourself into, and now we are adding on the burden to attribute that sickness to the person per se. It is just so wrong.

It's what I wanted to say, its stupid to say that quitting gambling is quitting from yourself. I would understand that op talks about breathing, or eating, that is quitting from life and yourself, but gambling should be fun activity and if you don't like to do it just don't, why to to make this stupid correlations between gambling and life itself.
I support your comment and you and me are rare people who have some brain in this topic, others just wrote stupidity to make some comments and to be paid for that.  I understand that paying part, I wear signature too, but some topics and comments don't have sense and I don't understand  how some people can support it without even thinking about it.

Just quit for awhile, reflect on what you did wrong and when you figure it out it would be easy for you to gamble again
but that time you should be smart and responsible so you will not do the same mistakes again.
When you are addicted, it's not the end, it's just a test, if you can learn then you can enjoy gambling again for sure.

[Fafabol]

It looks easy to tell but it is not that much easy to quit from gambling that is why we called it as an addiction.SO it needs special care with our will power to get out from that.So if someone addicted to gambling then it is impossible for them the get out themselves someone need to support them to get out.

Yes maybe it's easy to tell to quit to something that's been your system in every day lives but if this something isn't good for you anymore then it's time to quit. Yeah it's hard at first like you're going to die but if you're really determined to do so then I'm sure that eventually it won't bother you anymore. I believe that it just take 21 days to make a new habit so be it.

I really like this post even if bit to long to read it's yet nice, he's actually taken time to discuss a very hot topic that many of us do not wish to discuss. I feel his emotions and he's absolutely right sucide is bad. To quit gambling one must quit himself is very true, and I really think the idea to infuse oneself with positivy will work wonders for the gambler. I'm sure many will be inspired by his words.
