Have you been able to resist?

It's really hard to control the addiction once you addicted into gambling. I can call myself an addicted gambler too, i tried so many times to quit gambling and nope i can't. The only way to do is, don't let you control your own money. Once you receive money, send it to your wife or your parents to take care of it.

What was the biggest loss you faced?

YOu have already admitted that you’re an addict then why not ask you wife to help you?and besides it seems that you have already accept that reality

Why not tell this to yourself since that you knew how to do the right way to treat and cure the problem?

Self admitting is one good start for a new beginning,so try to do it your own

Fact that you can accept your mistake and that you are trying is a good sign and kudos to you. If you feel like gambling is taking away a lot of your time that could have been used in more fruitful work try talking to your closest people in life. That could your family members or even close friends. Be careful of backstabber (friends) though, only someone whom you trust fully. If you tell them of your problem it will help loosen your mind a lot.

Then find out something that you like to do and try to focus on that and not let your mind sway. Gradually this will help get rid of the addiction. Its not easy but its effective.

One of the ways for people who gets addicted to such games or gambling then they should get busy for them self in another thing or create new skills or hobby for them self which will help them to keep busy them self and stay away from gambling as well.

I can say you don't know the real meaning of getting addicted to something.

If we are speaking about addiction, you can't even control yourself nor think that you are doing something bad. Do you get it? Addiction is a real problem, it is not just something that you just forget, that you just get busy into something and it will be done, no it is not. It is hard, so hard to get addicted into something, that is the reason why there are people needed for that type of disorder.

[ChrisPop]

Yes, you just need to have motivation and inner force. Think rationally my friend. It is statistically proven that you're going to lose in the long term when gambling. Then why make it a way of enriching yourself or generating profits?! If you just like the adrenaline rush when throwing those dices or roullette balls, cards, etc. then just play with very low amounts depending on your financial situation and just for FUN!

It does not need to be that bad to be declared as an addiction. If you see a person not being able to keep themselves away from gambling every now and then even with times of respite in between then that person is gradually getting addicted and as a fried our work is to try to bring them back to the proper path.

Do you get it? Addiction is a real problem, it is not just something that you just forget, that you just get busy into something and it will be done, no it is not. It is hard, so hard to get addicted into something, that is the reason why there are people needed for that type of disorder.

Its very easy to get addicted to things that tend to form a physiological dependence. Its the same with drugs and gambling. People need to watch over themselves or their family members need to. Being able to get money for just the fun means they are getting addicted. Its dangerous and potentially harmful for susceptible people.

Have you been able to resist the addiction and not let gambling consume you?

Have you been able to control the urge to place that bet, spin that wheel or roll
that dice? For you to be able to go a length of time away from the adrenaline.

Hope some of us will hide to this advice and play safe when addicted to gambling.  It is important we understand that gambling is good but if we play it to level of addiction then it is bad.  I strongly believe that if we are not in control of our funds we can easily gamble with the fund we can afford to lose and not risk what we keep for feeding.

Gambling is not just kind of prohibited drugs, adrenaline, cocaine or even ecstasy that you can blame it because you are in a stage of addiction. You can actually resist that matter by doing self-discipline that you can't let gambling control you. Chasing lose is one of the reasons why people keep doing gambling even they know they can't win the house edge and that's what we called greediness.

Again it's easy for us to say that because we're not in their position. We're not feeling the urges they feel so we can simply say that they can stop if they want to. Its not as simple as that. I've known friends and acquaintance who were unfortunate enough to be dealing with gambling addiction. They want to quit because its affecting their family and personal life but they're having withdrawals when they try not to gamble for a day. So it's not that simple.

[spadormie]

Have you been able to resist the addiction and not let gambling consume you?

Of course, it is needed for all of us to do that thing. It requires us to do that more so if we are so addicted to gambling. It's like trading without using our emotions to trades. In gambling, resisting the addiction. What I'm doing was using my money that is okay for me to lose. That's how I gamble.

[mich]

Resisting the urge to gamble is something I do not have a difficult time achieving.
I know how the drill works in that the casinos always win most often so that alone is a good enough signal to resist.
Similar to when I once drank like a fish I would know my limit and think to myself its not worth crashing or injuring someone driving home.
That same resistance can be used when deciding if placing your last $$ on a sports team is worth it since you cant decide the outcome and Id rather have that $$ for things I need in life.

If a lot of gamblers can think like that, maybe there are no bad effects from play gamble. Because what make us do bad thing because of gamble is addiction and then make us want to play and play again until we lose all our money.

Even your own solution cannot work either. Once you are addicted into gambling, there is a tendency that EVERY money you are holding will be put into casinos. Even you received your money, there is a chance that you will not give it to your family but instead give it to casinos to gamble. Its just a matter of discipline if you want to remove gambling addiction.

Instead of gambling, distract yourself. Find another way to spend your time and don't gamble and be disciplined

It is very important for people to take gambling as a source of entertainment and for fun rather than people who want to just make money from it and in the end majority of those people lose their entire money in this process.

That's how realistic people think, gambling is for fun as that is the only way to minimize the risk.
If we are new in gambling, we might make a wrong judgment as we think it's easy to win and that we can make it as a source of income
but later on we will realize that it was not easy as we are expecting it to be, so it's alright to make mistake as long as you learn.

Yeah, if we are gambler then we must bear our loss, without loss gambling will not complete, In gambling we have no winning all the time, we play with our money on risk, and if we have no bear of our loss then we shouldn't play gambling, i think it is resisting of ourself from gambling.

Once you've learned from your mistakes like losing from gambling without control at first. However, resisting from another possible betting isn't easy to do when you're going to expect more winning times. But eventually if you can't control that desires, sadly you'll tend to become addicted with gambling bets due to habitual gambling  bets. You can move on if you could learn to control or minimize certain activity, it can be an occasional bets or just for fun purposes.

You react like that, you can call yourself a real gambler.

Losing is inevitable in gambling as it's the risk in gambling, there are winning or losing times but most gamblers
have more losing times. Now, if you still want to play despite the fact that you are losing, maybe you should try to consider
limiting the amount at risk, this strategy will not help you to win but at least will help you to last longer.

I am afraid that not many people can do that because when they are playing gambling, they can forget everything and many of them are chasing the win money. They cannot resist the feeling to chase the winning because some of them cannot feel that it will be too hard for them to chase especially if they are losing from the game. But I agree with your say, and we need to realize this before it's too late.
