i ruin my life and family because of this shit gambling..
With this thread i will apply this as much as i could.

Thanks for the post.

to the people that don't like the thread then dont comment. lol

it helps specially for the newbie gamblers.


There are pros and cons when it comes to gambling. I have friends who got their lives ruined because of gambling addiction. Gamblers should know how to control their emotions of having too much eagerness to win or else their emotions would control them which might result in uncertain losses in the future. We all know that there's no guarantee of winning in gambling and I believe that it's still a matter of luck. We can't put all our assets at risk and entrust all our necessities in gambling. We should think of the possible consequences of choosing  gambling over our family. Gambling is actually made for fun and entertainment so we should know how to deal with it appropriately.

I just wonder that OP made a such good post on dangers of gambling addictions in 2013 itself and some newbie bumping it after 4 years still OP's points are good and useful to this community.
yeah and i can relate on what OP is telling us because becing a former addict?i can feel it.
We already had 100s of discussion on gambling addictions but people contribute to those discussion at significant levels but it seems they are not making us of those discussion into their life when seeing how miserably some people are sharing about their loses  in gambling.
gamblers use to have this pride that even if they already knew missing something yet continuing the mistakes they are doing.
It is a good read what OP had contributed here but I am not sure how many gamblers will find time to reading it and realizing it along with their gambling life. I mean most of the gamblers here are toward gambling urge and they will not listen to any such advice which makes such good topics lifeless.
gamblers may read but realization?thats the question mate because how can one admit being addicted when he is just starting to enjoy his stupidity?

It is easier to advice others rather than following them in own life. This is what exactly happening here on this discussion board and in most gambler's life. They can easily spot addiction nature in other gambler's habit but may fail to control their own addictions toward gambling. I may not be an exception here. I guess I am not an addicted gambler but who knows, only other people may find how good I am at my gambling and preventing its addictions.

I support having this kind of discussion because at least it may save one gambler's life one day or other. See, this topic is getting life after long time still it is good to read and to discussion and I too believe it may bring changes to some gambler's activities too.

Damnn, this is an old thread and some newbie necrobump it but, this is still relevant and I enjoy reading it. Thankyou to the newbie that bump this, LOL

This one hit's me hard:

Quote
MYTH: You have to gamble every day to be a problem gambler.
FACT: A problem gambler may gamble frequently or infrequently. Gambling is a problem if it causes problems.

I am gambling maybe one day a week or one day a month, but every time that I lose, I feel miserable and thinking that I shouldn't bet considering that I am always losing. Every time I gamble, I will have a good start and can't control my greed to go big, and it is always ending up miserable. I am always feeling bad every time I lose. Gambling is a problem if you feel bad every time you play and still playing even though you know that you are going to lose.

We should think of the possible consequences of choosing  gambling over our family. Gambling is actually made for fun and entertainment so we should know how to deal with it appropriately.
One of my friends had encountered it too to the point that gambling addiction affects his health because he's not eating and sleeping on the right time. I watch him lose some weight and it makes me feel like it ruined his life, that's why I decided to make an action by making him realize that his life will end up miserable if he doesn't know how to control himself. I make him look into his situation wherein his money is gone and his health is not in a good condition. It slaps the reality inside him and felt sorry because of what he have done but I told him that its okay as long as you learn from your mistakes. Maybe gambling is entertaining but you have to realize that it can also make a huge negative impact on your life, not only in your funds but even on your health. Self-discipline is a must, its your responsibility as a gambler and besides being addicted depends on how you manage yourself so if you don't want to end up feeling remorse then you should know your own limitation because at the end of the day you are the only person who will suffer the consequences of your actions.

Not sure why you felt the need to bump a four year old thread in order to post this.

If your husband had an issue, then it's not his fault you guys had no money to buy food, he should never have been allowed to access your money in the first place.

What's the name of the free rehab clinic though? A huge people need that service around here.
I shared my story in the hope someone will understand it is realluy possible to overcome addiction.
Speaking about the name of the clinic, I edited my post and added a link there.
I can actually relate to your situation as I will share a story of my own. So, basically my neighbor was into gambling not bitcoins but just gambling in real life like betting with people, drinking alcohol and getting late to the house and abusing her wife. We as neighbors knew what was going on but none of us actually cared too much because of this abrasive and rough behavior.

Now, the lady his wife decided she had too much and she actually left him once forever, the guy got even bigger in debts and almost got to begging for money. Somehow his brother who was living in other city came and got him to a rehab center and you won't believe he now lives with his wife (the old one came back Wink and he is much happier now.

Moral : Some addictions needs to be treated properly and professionally.

every addiction can make our life miserable mate and that is already given,there are too many news and happenings where a gambling addict murder others,cut off his own life,leave His family to starve,and many more.
That's what the OP has mentioned although it is old thread being bumped by someone who felt they should share their own story and while I am not a fan of bumping old threads but this thread is actually worth bumping as more and more gamblers who are slowly falling in trap of gambling will find help from the mentioned facts in the OP.


like other addiction like Alcohol,womanizer,smoking and others will bring our life to nothing but hatreds.
I must say gambling addiction has to be among the top 5 most dangerous addictions because unlike other addictions it does not affect you physically and you feel like you are doing good and your family would never notice any difference but gambling addiction actually destroys you internally and you go through a sea of emotions and obviously hurts you financially as well.

It is the bad sides of addiction where you do gambling where you do not have control in yourself anymore and you also have different vices. I became addicted in gambling both online and in real life, yes it became one of the hardest challenges in my life but now I'm here where I overcome the addiction. It can really diminish your life if you have doesn't control anymore in your emotions and feelings. For those who still stuck in addiction, seeking professional advices may help.

as long as he dont harm his self and others and as long as he think he is still normal and can think properly  , why not  ?  i know a couple of friend who are also degen when it comes to gambling but they can still do other things like sleeping . infact my friend sleeps alot everyday  but he confess to me that he is a degen  . also , this thread is not for the gamblers that dont care of what others are saying about them but this is for gamblers that seeks help because they do want to get out of thier addiction  .

Gambling addiction could not be observed in the beginning days so an addicted gambler may look like normal and they might be sleeping like any normal persons. But over the time of continuing gambling, their psychological level may turn upside down which will lead to less sleeping hours and other mental disorders. So, it doesn't mean a gambler is not harming anyone that is not an addicted one.

Most of the cases addiction toward gambling is being discovered only in the later stages. Until then most gamblers are capable of hiding it from their family members and friends circle. So close watching is helpful also being irregular to gambling may delay addictions.

Guess there are different between "gambling addiction" and "problem gambling". Problem gambling could also include people who gambled excessively in their first time they ever gamble. Such people will likely not gamble for a long time if they are not pleased with their losses but some could still come back to gamble despite their losses, either to "have fun" or try their luck again. I think the fun seeking gamblers could end up getting addicted if the gambling is more fun to them than any other activity outside gambling.
I guess the words (problem gambling) concern all problems associated with gambling, which includes addiction. Casinos should probably be made less addictive, people should be taught  to gamble safely before they gamble, people that are vulnerable to addiction (especially children)  should not be allowed to gamble. It's also important to "solve the real cause of addiction"... like depression, sadness, etc

I think it will depend on themselves whether they want to be helped or not, and we cannot force them to quit gambling if they don't want. It needs an open mind to accept other people's suggestions so we can help them to quit gambling. But if that person doesn't have a good attitude and doesn't have an effort to stop, I think that will waste our time because they will deny our advice. We can let them the choice of what they want and related to gambling, we can to let them know the risk.

This is an old but hold thread. This summarizes myths and facts about addiction and being a problem gambler. One of my aunts is a gambling addict and she is not actually contented having her friends go to her house to gamble, she lets a group of her friends go to her home to play all day. Then there are days she ia not contented and goes to the casino to play. That is the moment I believe that no jackpot or anount of money can make a problem gambler stop. She even won a jackpot in the casino worth almost $30,000 in pur money and this only made her to crave more rather than to stop.

Now she is struggling even some of properties are sold and even jewelries that were left by my late uncle were now sold because of financial problem.

You can't help someone who does not want to be helped, so enjoy your gambling, what else can we say.

This is true in the case of my aunt.

I just wonder that OP made a such good post on dangers of gambling addictions in 2013 itself and some newbie bumping it after 4 years still OP's points are good and useful to this community.

Haha,,, yeah, some threads do deserve to be bumped every now and then. It really gives us some perspective sometimes that some lessons never change. Provably fair gambling and crypto casinos gave us freedom and transparency,,, but it does not change the fact that addiction is something we forget to discuss and talk about as adults. May we always protect each other.

every addiction can make our life miserable mate and that is already given,there are too many news and happenings where a gambling addict murder others,cut off his own life,leave His family to starve,and many more.
That's what the OP has mentioned although it is old thread being bumped by someone who felt they should share their own story and while I am not a fan of bumping old threads but this thread is actually worth bumping as more and more gamblers who are slowly falling in trap of gambling will find help from the mentioned facts in the OP.


like other addiction like Alcohol,womanizer,smoking and others will bring our life to nothing but hatreds.
I must say gambling addiction has to be among the top 5 most dangerous addictions because unlike other addictions it does not affect you physically and you feel like you are doing good and your family would never notice any difference but gambling addiction actually destroys you internally and you go through a sea of emotions
exactly what i am pointing in my top post mate,because Gambling is like mental problem in which you are killing also other people that relying on you,there are some addict that even let their family starve while they are enjoying losing their money in betting.

but you are correct this thread is worth Bumping because the points in OP are very well imposed about what gamblers need to prevent and follow to keep safe in gambling.

I just wonder that OP made a such good post on dangers of gambling addictions in 2013 itself and some newbie bumping it after 4 years still OP's points are good and useful to this community.

We already had 100s of discussion on gambling addictions but people contribute to those discussion at significant levels but it seems they are not making us of those discussion into their life when seeing how miserably some people are sharing about their loses  in gambling.

It is a good read what OP had contributed here but I am not sure how many gamblers will find time to reading it and realizing it along with their gambling life. I mean most of the gamblers here are toward gambling urge and they will not listen to any such advice which makes such good topics lifeless.
Right, I just saw someone bumped an old topic but the value never gets old no matter how many times it has been read or how old it is. But, I won't call Kayley who bumped this thread as newbie because she seems to share a serious matter here, she realized her husband has some serious issue and she needs to act, huge respect for Kaley and a legend in real life if even she's a newbie here.

Hopefully since this gambling discussion section is just above the gambling one, hopefully some guys will float around here and find some help, no matter how many guys contribute if even we can save some guys from the gambling disaster that is still great.

Not sure why you felt the need to bump a four year old thread in order to post this.

If your husband had an issue, then it's not his fault you guys had no money to buy food, he should never have been allowed to access your money in the first place.

What's the name of the free rehab clinic though? A huge people need that service around here.
I shared my story in the hope someone will understand it is realluy possible to overcome addiction.
Speaking about the name of the clinic, I edited my post and added a link there.
I can actually relate to your situation as I will share a story of my own. So, basically my neighbor was into gambling not bitcoins but just gambling in real life like betting with people, drinking alcohol and getting late to the house and abusing her wife. We as neighbors knew what was going on but none of us actually cared too much because of this abrasive and rough behavior.

Now, the lady his wife decided she had too much and she actually left him once forever, the guy got even bigger in debts and almost got to begging for money. Somehow his brother who was living in other city came and got him to a rehab center and you won't believe he now lives with his wife (the old one came back Wink and he is much happier now.

Moral : Some addictions needs to be treated properly and professionally.
It is the bad sides of addiction where you do gambling where you do not have control in yourself anymore and you also have different vices. I became addicted in gambling both online and in real life, yes it became one of the hardest challenges in my life but now I'm here where I overcome the addiction. It can really diminish your life if you have doesn't control anymore in your emotions and feelings. For those who still stuck in addiction, seeking professional advices may help.

Before engaging in gambling you should know first the pros and cons of gambling. For me, it can bring 30% profit and 70% losses to your money so if you want to gamble, you should understand that it will make you enjoy playing and at the same time accept losses if you're not lucky. But if you have luck, I guarantee you that it will be worth it. Addiction is a person's choice and not someone's mistake because at first you should know the effect of it to your life. Self-discipline is a key for you not to become addicted to gambling and also minimize your losses so that stress will not come into your mind

What I have realized is the fact that when you are spending too much time for something and too much money on it, it has to be either a loved hobby by all the people around you or it is very dangerous. Lets assume you spend thousands of dollars into painting and you become a decent painter, not a good one, definitely not a horrible one since you will sink it hours and hours upon it, however just a mediocre one that could maybe sell your paintings for 100 dollars and that is if you are lucky, NOBODY would mind it.

However, if you spend exactly the same time and same amount of money into gambling, that will be both damaging to your relations around you and also not going to get any respect from anyone. So gambling could very well be literally the same time/money in your life but it will still be hated.

snip..
Gambling addicts will not get respect from the surrounding environment..  I am a gambler but I can still manage the time (when to stop and continue) the person who spends all his time in gambling will never be a king or master of gambling because the master of gambling is only a fiction (I say this because there are still many gamblers out there who think if they spend time in gambling then they will become proficient or masters in the gambling).
