What would make you stop gambling?

[Ridwan Fauzi]

Seems like get a lot of lose would make me stop to play gambling if I'm a gambler because so far I'm not a gambling addict in my side, I just play gambling when I had money and I need some entertainments.

So, I will feel how gambling addict is and that is my way to go out from gambling environment. It can be made as a detterent effect to thinking a loud when I wanna play gambling again.

[Ryker1]

Well, why I will stop gambling since that is my habit. As long as I know how to limit my self from being addicted perhaps I am fine with gambling. If your passion was on gambling and you have enjoyed it, there's no problem if you will continuously gamble just for fun and for your self as well. There's nothing wrong with gambling, the big mistake is on us as a gambler and we manage with this.

[Sanugarid]

I think it would never stop. Even if I have a career, a passion or even if I have a lot of money, my gambling activity will never stop. It is not that I can't live without it, it is the one that shaped me to be me. I am addicted in the past, I think if that never happened I will not be the same person as myself today. Even if I grow old, I would surely be in my rocking chair using my laptop or mobile phone gambling online.

It actually depends on a person because we can say that there are really some people who really don't stop gambling even if they need to, even if they are kept on losing money they are still playing the game because that is actually what they want, not to lose money but to play. Their passion for playing gambling is active. Being addicted to a particular activity is sometimes bad but the only thing you can do about them is to support because nothing can stop them from playing but their own self.

are there any things in life that would make you stop gambling?

the two things that come to my mind are:
- making enough or a lot of money.
- finding a passion (even relationshiprelated or life/activity related) that changes your priorities.

but can you see other things than that?

Definitely there are other things.Important one going bankrupt will make you to stop doing gambling.

I do agree with the point one but anyone in the world will be contented with what they making definitely no they still want more and more even the richest person in the wolrd has that mindset so people having intention of making money have less chances to stop gambling even if they won big amounts.

That is the common thing that can happen why people are stopping gambling because they are being bankrupt and they do not have enough money to play anymore. But I can say that the end is because they lose money, what if they gain again some money and try again to play some gambling to try making it big. Right? The mindset of a gambler cannot be changed. To play and to win.

I don't need to be made to stop gambling, because I don't have any problems with it.

When I get spare time, I play a few rounds of dice on my phone, or bet on my favorite sports using my favorite sportsbook.

It wouldn't take much for me to stop this, as soon as I can find a similarly fun activity to occupy my time, I'll just do that instead.

No biggie.

Not a big thing for those people who doesnt care too much about gambling activity but there were lots who do have this kind of problem where they cant throw out easily their gambling activities into other more important thing.We do have on the same foot when it comes to gambling where i can stop completely if there were things that can caught my attention which i wont need to gamble again.
I wont let myself come to the situation where i do stop because i dont already have some money to play. Things should be on moderation and in control if we dont like to mess things up.
As long you do know to control and sensible to your actions then it doesnt matter if you do play yet its our money and time to be spent.Stopping should really be done easily according
to your likes yet this do signify that you arent that hooked too much on gambling which is a better thing among all.

[joeperry]

Having not enough money to play with is another option I think? If you don't have anything that you can bet I think it would make you to stop playing isn't? well it's an addiction if you can't stop something and it would really difficult for a person to take it out from his/her system.

But I think the best way to stop gambling is what you've said finding a passion or focus into something that would take you away from gambling in my case instead of playing real gambling i prefer playing a gambling games (with a fake money of course) or some online games.

[Rengga Jati]

- making enough or a lot of money.

I doubt if this can make someone stop gambling. You know people always greedy, it is the fact, so don't deny it. When they can gain money from gambling, they will focus on it as it is worth to do. Moreover, if they can gain big money, I am pretty sure that they will gamble more often.

In my opinion, someone can stop gambling when they are aware that it is not all things to do in their life. They have another thing to do as a priority. For example:
- Someone prefers to focus on their career in real life.
- Someone needs more time to socialize and gather with family.
- Someone feels that he is going to be addicted more if he doesn't stop it.

You'll stop gambling if you think about the future of your family, and making enough money won't be established in gambling because you're prone of losing such money. Priorities will always be associated with gambling, and if you prefer not to stop it will eventually destroy the relationship between you and your family. Most cases I heard, that if there's no enough time to take care of the family, respect and love will be gone entirely.

That would be the key for every gamblers to stop but the sad reality is there still gamblers who got broke and family separated due to this addiction and maybe if we see people can't stop this even if they say they want to stop then best to bring them on psychiatrist or any professional help so that they will be helped for their addiction and they can regain back their  healthy lifestyle.

[josephdd1]

This is a tough one, and for me it wold be several things such as extermination of the internet, homelessness or health related illness which would debilitate me in such a way that I couldn't gamble. These are all things that one hopes will never have to come to, so in that respect gambling can be regarded as an addictive commodity rather than an absolute necessity

The key point is the addiction case. If someone is getting addicted to gambling, his family or the closest person to him should remind/wake him up. Usually, an addicted gambler isn't aware that he is already addicted to gambling. So, he needs another person to realize him about the fact. And if it is needed, go to a psychiatrist or any professional help as you said above.

People changes over time in many ways, their interests and hobbies, the things they are practicing everyday and such. And, I thought of other thing that could stop someone in their gambling hobbit or addiction, it could be about their career or their goal in life. Once in a while a person would think about what he would do in the future, what would be his life when things changes. A good person would do that, and would come up of something to make up for it. People cannot live by gambling for all their life, they would surely think about settling in life, be happy and contented.

[KnightElite]

With deep emotional reason can help you to stop gambling, there should be a strong reason about why you want to stop gambling but it is not easy to achieve specially if you stuck in addiction. Proper counseling can help you to stop gambling but commitment is still rewuured because you will never quit without it. I became addicted also in gambling but I overcome that challenge in my life because I have commitment to stop that kind of addiction.

I am once addicted to gambling but I never ever thought of it to become my passion. I just play because I wanted to, maybe the pressure in the past to myself because I want to help my family and my wife at that time that is why I entered myself into gambling. I also reflected on this and I think if I have enough money for my wife, if I see them so happy, not looking at money as a problem, I think I could consider myself stopping. Right now, I can't do that, everything has their own process and time.

Perhaps, we stop gambling because we are tired of seeing the loss that we always get in gambling. We want to break out from gambling to see if we have a chance to make money from other ways. But that is not happening to many gamblers since they still gamble even if they lose.

The other thing that might help us to stop is because of family. When we care with our family, we will try to do anything to see our family can feel better without thinking about our problem in addicted to gambling. We will work hard to solve the addiction because we want to be a better person for our family.

Those two are not the only things you should consider for you to stop gambling. If ever the time came wherein the loss is higher than the gain, you should see it already as a sign to end your involvement in gambling. If you are fortunate enough, on the other hand, gaining sufficient rewards from gambling which can secure your future should also be seen as a sign to quit gambling and start settling your life in motion. You can try pulling out a business with the money you made to secure your future more.

I don't think so, because when you come to the point that you have so much money that it will not valuable to you if you lose them, you'll don't care about it. But in some points, instead of losing your spare money to gambling, you must donate it into a charity because they really need some financial assistant. Help our society and stop gambling, it will surely help yourself to not get addicted and minimize wasting your money. Money isn't easy to earn so let other people benefit it in a good way.

Minimize the time you spend in gambling and prioritize some other things that will really make you enjoy life and your money. Spend your money on your family, friends, business so that your money will not become useless. Gambling is not a source of income but it can relieve your stress, and there are more things that can be an alternative for you to become stress-free.

Minimizing the time you spend on playing gambling is one of the steps on stopping and reducing the addictiveness on gambling, I was once a gambling addict and decided to reduce my activity on the gambling scene, Redirecting your focus to other things greatly help you, It works fine on me. The result is I don't find a way to play gambling games now and I will only play when there is nothing to the, It obviously came down from my priority things to do every day to my last thing that I will do for a day.

I've experienced having a good life and realizing the time I lose on playing gambling, The stress I got before from playing gambling were also reduced, Playing sometimes can is for me entertaining, It's a lot entertaining if you play it for a while than playing it everyday.

[Question123]

Maybe even I gain more money in gambling I did not stop because I know how to handle my money and my limitation . Even I find my passion it is not the reason to stop. But for the people who are very addict playing better to lessen or mandatory to srop before everything gones like in other gamblers who spent all their money they have.

I know stopping gambling is one of the crazy and hardest to stop but minizing playing is the alternative solution if you cannot stop because of your desire to win and to enjoy. I know that because I also like that but now I play only few time a week not everyday.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

but can you see other things than that?

Non of those things you mentioned are even in the picture when I consider things that could take my mind off gambling. Making enough or more money might just increase my addiction level since I will now have more time to spend doing nothing and obviously it might result to be engaging in some gambling activities be it for monetary gain or for pleasure.

Putting my family first is all that matters to me, currently I'm not yet married and non of my direct relations like parents and siblings are aware of my gambling activities. Assuming they find out and I'm supposed to choose between them and gambling, it simply means I'll have to quit, same fate applies to my wife (when I do get one).
