If you're the one who gets addicted, what possibilities can you do?


If you're gonna ask me, maybe I'll first have a serious discussion with my wife bout the money that I will gonna spend at the casinos then later on we could have an endless arguement that can lead us into nothing. If I get addicted maybe there is also a possibility that I will certainly blame people whenever I lose on a game. (That's the attitude that I have and I don't want it to show.)

And you? Would you be the same? Or even worst?

If you still think of a way how to overcome your addiction then you are not totally fall yet on the trap of being an "addicted". It's just that you are now categorized as "regular" gamblers. Same scenario with the addicted ones since you are obviously losing money on the way but in here, there is a side on your brain that still functioning to tell you what the heck is going on.

About the "attitude" honestly I don't know since even Im a regular gambler, Im not reached the point yet of doing unnecessary things. I mean, why should I. I even loss a lot on the process but still remained calm and responsible.

In here, we can conclude that different people really have different approach on being an "addicted" ones.

Kept calm is very important even you are in the stage of addiction and always remember your responsibilities not follow by your emotion of being addicted. Ain't in the stage of addiction because I can handle my self to have set self-limitation.
And blaming people of your possible loss is not a good habit you must change it, maybe you always find trouble of that.

Agreed, being calm for a while will give a mind to make decisions in the right way than just going on emotions. Maybe this isn't possible with everyone who is addicted, but once after continued loss taking a break will give you the mind to think wisely. You may quit for the day understanding the scenario or else can develop better strategy leading to winning. So, a break is a must when you feel yourself getting into addiction. That doesn't make sense of blaming the people around us for our mistake.

I'll do the same and this is just me. Even I'm not addicted I used to blame people for my losses. But past is past and I'm good today and was able to overcome this kind of attitude. Becoming an addicted gambler would really change our attitude and I don't know what other worse thing that I can do 'IF' I become one again. I salute to those gamblers that remained to be calm and didn't blamed anyone for their losses, you're all guys the MVP. I guess it's all about the attitude.

If you're the one who gets addicted, what possibilities can you do?

I will keep myself away from internet access.
I will spend more time with family
I will go for a holiday.
I will keep myself away from any sports related updates (I was addicted to sports betting)
I will not go closer to the betting shops.
I always keep myself busy doing something else may be any kind of DIY

These are things I will do.

I been through this long ago and my friends and family made it happen for me to give up the addiction. Now a days I do gamble but it's just pure fun. I do spend more or less 50 to 100 quid for betting but when I was addicted there were days when I lost over 2 grand.

Its hard to notice that you’re already addicted in gambling but if I continue to lose big money and becomes more depressed everyday, I will ask for some help with my family now. I know at first they will be mad at me because of what I’ve down but of course they will help me to stop that addiction. Family is the only option for me to become normal person again.

I have immense control over my mind and emotion so I won't get addicted to anything very easily. However, like you have asked, if I get addicted to gambling, I will personally won't discuss with my wife, rather I will try to get professional help. I will visit a psychiatrist for counselling so that I can come out of such addiction. Also I will stay from internet for an extended period of time and ask my wife to oversee my online activities. Because when wife yells, things come into shape quickly!!

[crzy]

Addiction is curable, and if you notice it already better to ask for some help.
I know how to control and myself, if I get addicted too in gambling, i’ll probably stopped it since I have my family that is depending on me and I cannot afford to be broke for a long time. So I will just stay away from casinos and online gambling, I think its hard but i will do my best to stopped it for my family.

[rodel caling]

I think in your position and your present of mind your not front become addicted, always remember to avoid become addecting in gambling always set greed control and for money issue with your wife use extra money for the gambling habit do not bring huge of money reasy to lose to avoid discussing about it if the money gonna lose in gambling.

[Oceat]

If you will be able to control yourself from being too obsessive about playing gambling then you won't have a problem if you are addicted already to gambling. Being responsible for what have you done in the first place is your goal after failing to multiply your bankroll in the hope of playing gambling. Blaming isn't the answer to your question if you think that would fix everything because eventually all the people that you blame will leave you and you might end up being alone living on your own.

[leowonderful]

Depends how deeply I become addicted to gambling. I do already gamble on a rather regular basis, and I find it pretty unlikely I'll ever dig myself into a hole financially through gambling, but if I ever do become addicted I'll just find a way to stop spending money on gambling by doing something like preoccupying myself with something else that will actually help me acquire more money or try to get professional help. I'm not addicted to anything right now besides possibly caffeine through coffee consumption, though, but I do know and have all the resources I need to get help at my fingertips.

[Japinat]

I wouldn't waste my time talking to my wife, she'll not understand anyway.
Gambling is a man's game and usually a wife would not understand it unless he herself is also a gambler.

I might seek some guidance to my fellow gambler who have been able to control themselves in gambling who those who
have been been to cure themselves from addiction, and I prefer to take to people which are family members or a close friends.

she will . its better to confront your problems with her if that really bothers you because that can release stress build up  .

gambling is not only for men but its for all genders  though its not for all ages and for all countries   . here on our place i can see many females playing card based  games and bingo every single day  .

i think your fellow gamblers is also addicted to gambling and cannot give you an honest advice because they cant also cure their selves . you better talk to your family members because they are more effective  .

I probable end up jobless first because i will not concentrate in my work. Poor performance can lead to being fired. Next, since i wasnt earning, i will end up being bankrupt. This is the moment i will consult my family. After a lot of confrontation and rehabilitation, hopefuly will be better after a year. But i know this wouldnt happen because i stay away to being addict as much as possible.

[maydna]

I will tell my family about my addicting so they can find a solution for me, and maybe I will ask someone in my family to carry my money and don't give it to me, and he will manage that money for my daily needs. Besides that, I will ask someone always to follow me wherever I go, always reminds me in every time I want to come back to the gambling. And if necessary, I will ask them to go with me to go to a psychiatrist. I will try everything to quit gambling because I love my family and I don't want to lose everything I have.

Husband knows their wife and not other people.
When you want to be help, go seek some help to those you trust and comfortable in sharing your problem.



If I would be addicted, the first person I would go is my parents, they know me better and they have more experience than me
so I'm sure I can get some advise and the real help. No parents that wouldn't care for their children, though we mature in the world
but as long as they are still alive, they will always do their responsibility to guide us.

We should be honest and accept that we seek for help, otherwise, any advise we will receive will become useless.

The first step is to inform others the real situation what has happened and in what state of mind the person is. Because this will give others the thought to think the real state of yours and accordingly things would be done in order to set free from the addiction.

Geeting addicted in one thing and realising that you are addicted is another thing.
If I realise that I'm adicted,I would seek for professional help and try to stay away from money whatsoever.
My wife will spend all the money in our household.

If I realized that i am already a addict then i will not choose to talk to my wife about how much to spend instead i will asked her to help me out,i will seek for other family members for better solutions as I believe that addiction can be cured if we are willing to accept the reality and will be open for advices and help from people who loves us most
