Want to quit? Here's how

[FlightyPouch]

Arrest the addiction.

That's how you quit.
Pure and simple.

Yes, it's simple, but it's hard to do because the addiction is not just to talk about the addicted itself, but it also needs to know what the method to solve the problem. And once the right method can apply, I am sure the addiction will be cured. But it needs a big effort to stay patient while we are trying to solve the problem and we need more support from other people.

Arrest those addict?
I don't understand this one, because addiction is not a crime its a battle between you and your emotion. If you're addict in gambling, you cannot stop that easily you have to undergo with the process, and that process will take more time. Its good if there is someone who can work with you, and help you to be better again, patient is the key of course but try to put big effort on that.

impressed that addicts are plague and must be exiled. even though addicts are people who need help. moreover they don't hurt other people and aren't contagious right? arrest them not the way out. they need help from a psycholog.

That is the problems nowadays. They are eliminating or containing the affected areas but they are not stopping the root of the problem. Instead of arresting these addicts, why not stop the gambling places or the casinos? And I know no one would want that and in the end, it is on our hands to stop ourselves from gambling and be addicted to it. No one can stop ourselves but us.

You need to have  Plan so that you can be quit gambling if you really want to do that. But maybe it's hard because if your habit is playing gambling it's not easy to quit they have process on that like the other. This information is really helpful to quit to those people have plan but it depends to you if that works on that we have different habits and mind set and maybe it will not work for you.

Having a plan before deciding to stop gambling is indeed something we need to do. for gamblers who already have a great addiction it is very difficult to abandon their habits unless they can vent by filling in other activities so that they are able to engage in positive activities

This is indeed helpful, but in the end of the day there's no one there to help but except you yourself, if you have read this and you are addicted to gambling then I hope it does help you out, this is a serious matter since your money is on the line, if you can't help yourself to stop it as early as possible then your future is doomed, if you want to quit then quit as early as possible before you completely lose yourself.

Withdrawing your work from anything will not be solution for I think so to some other ways to manage that problem in gambling also we have lot of losses to be happened in many times but quit that things will be more important but managing the losses will be the good idea.

Well, I can control myself to keep gambling or not.
But if you let the gambling control you, you should contact someone that able help you.
Since we are adult, we can decide to choose something true or false so it's kindda strange where you can't control your will !

4.) If you already strengthen your inner self, the next steps is already easy for you. You see, yourself is the best enemy you have and we should start changing you by the way you think. Next is, have other things to do that can make you busy. Start trading or having new business. You will soon realize that the essense of the money you lost in gambling.

I disagree with this advice. Being successful in any business is not easy. Most people fail and that's why there are a lot more poor people in the world than rich ones. Your advice looks like as if one starts a business, the success is 100% guaranteed, while the opposite is true in many cases in reality.

If I was trying to help a gambling addict to quit, I would change that to "Start spending money on something other than gambling. ..." If those were big money, the effect won't be long in coming.

unfortunately these are the adults which play gambling too much that they become addicted and then it is impossible to quit. Similarly adult do the smoking and smoking is difficult to quit even though all the adult knows how much disadvantages it has, for the health.

That's true but better if you are an adult as you are more matured compared and can make good decision.
Gambling is risky, you cannot erase that reality but you can also avoid getting addicted, that if you follow the rules to play on what you can afford only.
As a gambler, you know you should know your limitation, knowing when to quit is very important, don't get too attach with your emotion in the game.

I think friends and family will be a great help for anyone addicted in gambling who wants to quit for good. And add some activites that will take much of your time like sports or getting far away to those places where he can access a casino again. And the best part is to pray to God so you'll recover easily.

[Siren]

It depends on who wanted to quit,because if the person is just a typical gambler so maybe all that you give as an advices is applicable since quitting for them might not be that harder,but if we are talking for a gambling addicted then this are two different thing,yes they will be wanting to leave the addiction and go through life but this is not easy,this is a burden to everyone with this kind of situation so add some more valuable advices that what you have written in the OP

Making a new habit will help that person to try to forget the gambling game because he needs to stay focus to finish the habit. And I am sure with the support from his friends and family, he can cure his addicting in gambling, and he can get a new life, and he can stop from gambling forever. Although it's not so simple as we think, at least we have to try to help that person to solve the problem.

If you want to leave gambling then you can definitely do it but if you lost much more money in gambling and leaving quickly will not give any profit for you so if you are doing gambling if you want to leave then leave slowly slowly it will be the right way for a gambler to get out from gambling.

Yes, love and affection are always known for bringing miracles to our life. Hence, it will help even for getting rid off gambling addictions. External helps are always having good impact on making gamblers to get rid of their addiction but unfortunately most gamblers are not at all preferring to open about their gambling addiction to their family members.

if you are doing gambling if you want to leave then leave slowly slowly it will be the right way for a gambler to get out from gambling.

This must be a working way only before you get addicted because after got addicted to gambling, you will never able to control yourself and leaving off gambling slowly will not be possible. If you think about slowly leaving off then you will go for more intensive gambling and more frequently too.

I believe so.But of course with self-determination and motivation to change and with a perfect picture of who you want to be in the future.I think quitting would not be so hard to do if you are helping yourself too.Although the love and affection from your loved ones are always present,but at least you should also be responsible to make good changes in your life and not to try gambling again anymore.

Quitting is easy if you want to achieve something, but never easy if you want to stop doing what you always do and what you always wanted to do. This is what you called addiction, and we all know that its really hard to over come.

It is definitely easy to quit if you don't have the passion on what you are doing. For me, gambling is a passion because i have to be very good with it for me to excel though it is not the case for others. We have different goals on why we gamble. With me, winning money is my ultimate goal so if i don't achieve my goals then i would think on what i should do next and quitting is part of it.

Wrong goal! Probably you are going to regret about this later.

When you have ultimate goal of making money then you should earn money, making easy money won't work for many people only with the luck can but still it won't last long.

Actually, we can easily leave gambling but we don't want to leave because we always think that we have another chance to win the money. Sometimes we forget that stop from gambling need a big effort to try because gambling is always tempting us to get back to the game. And that is why many people get addiction on the gambling itself.

[goaldigger]

Oh, if person is gambling addicted, loses and loses, then how can we say "once you tasted it again, you will turn back to the same addict person you want to get rid of." If taste is bad (you lose and get bankrupt), then why do we still want to taste it always? That's a little bit questionable for me and something that I can't understand. One way we can think that once person tastes gambling (and if he loses from the first time), then more likely he will hate it. I think main factor here is that you are a poor person or don't give a shit how much money you waste because you are rich and gamble for profit. I think there is a less risk for rich to become addicted but when you are poor and your overall knowledge (intellect) is on lower level, you think that you'll win much from that one dollar and so on, you always try to fill wished money by playing with the hope of win.

You know the feeling when you let go someone you love, like a person, a hobby or your passion? Thats what i mean in this. Even you overcome leaving that addiction, there is still something in your heart that once triggered you will run off to it even you dont admit it. This is why you should avoid trying it again. Even you lose, or youre hurt, if you love that thing that it turned you to an addict, then thats a big deal for you.

Arrest the addiction.

That's how you quit.
Pure and simple.

I may have some addition for the OP also, you can give your money to your mom and told her that even if you want it back dont dare to give you even if just a single penny though moms are always strict when itcomes to money. But if you dont have any Mommy, I suggest to find one

And second thing if you cant find any get yourself a wife. And if still nothing because you're way too ugly inside and outside of your personality I suggest you to get a rope hang it on the tree, leave your belongings and money together with a note "I'm quitting gambling" then after that hang yourself into the rope

1. We are grown adults. You are not worthy if you just can't control your money and you have to hire someone else to manage them for you if you are a gambling addict. You still have to find another way of overpassing your addiction.

2. Meeting a girlfriend or getting married is a good solution as long as you will spend time with your spouse and do new exciting things together that will make you forget about gambling.
