Leave gambling, if it destroys you.

[harizen]

The topic of content is not for me to stop gambling, I am fed up with many beginner topics about "stopping gambling when losing.
Why not just do it to stop gambling, why do you play gambling, if you know you los.

Honestly, let them be like that and just don't mind them.

The fact that they create threads like that means they are still in control of themselves - they know the risks, they know what will be the output, they know what they are doing.

The pointers, suggestions, advice that everyone creates here to "stop gambling" is useless to them. Gamblers will not stop until they didn't experience their "worst" losing experience in their gambling journey. Much better to advise them on how to deal with gambling and give them tips, instead of stopping them. They are the only ones who can decide when to stop.

I already lost several times by doing gambling but still here putting up bets. Of course, there are also winnings on the way. Self-disciplined is the key.

It's all go out on how responsible are you when gambling if you have a strong character before you to gambling, you can stop yourself from falling hard on it, a strong character has a strong will, and he knows his priority in life a responsible person knows where to put gambling in his life.

Gambling is both enjoyable and addictive activity. Some people do gamble in order to kill time or to simply enjoy playi.g with other people. But there are people who are being to hooked up with such activity to the point that it consumes the player itself until he has nothing left to bet. But greed is the main thing and the urge of the player to win back his losses. My observation is that, the bigger the loss of a player, the higher the tendency that he would be hooked up with the 'game', especially if he does win SOMETIMES. Such instances would give the player hope and desire to play.

It is not that. Addiction is a condition. No matter how a player wanted to quit such activity, if his mind and body is tangled with the activity itself, he cannot do nothing about it. That is why people around that person is needed in order to guide him.

There are addiction centers all around the world that helps these kinds of people, even though I am certain that OP wanted to be helpful and wanted to advice people to have a better life which on itself is an honorable effort, I would still say seeking a professional help is above all most important thing you can do as an addict.

If you seek professional help and can afford to get it, you will be capable of fighting with the demons inside you that hurts you and people around you. Education is also a quite important part of addiction, the very well educated people (not smart, nor wise, just educated) knows the potentials of what addiction could do which is why addiction is lesser in the well educated parts of the world compared to uneducated and ignorant parts of it.

I agree and I think that determination is key in anything you want to achieve.Even in such a difficult case when someone addicted to gambling want to quit the main factor for me is determination.The problem though is very few people have it and many lack it.If you want something really bad you will get it eventually while doing all the required work for it.

Your determination will not help where luck is the primary key in deciding your success. I mean you might be having all the determination about achieving big things in gambling but that may help only up to the level of continuing your gambling but not in the final out come of gambling.

I believe same attitude of determination is required while thinking about stopping gambling on the both case of temporary and permanently. I mean strong determination is required for stopping gambling as well.

I have read all the comments on this thread, positive, authoritative, educating, full of professional ideas.

I'm sorry I can't reply to all of your comments, I hope for beginners who are addicted to gambling can choose and see in this thread, consider, draw conclusions from positive comments here for all of you about gambling.

To stop gambling and continue, everything is in your heart, gambling is risky, if you experience sadness and misery in the world of gambling, leave, do not jump into the world of gambling, find something useful for you and your family, life has a purpose.

Everything said by friends here has a deep and thoughtful meaning before and when doing something especially gambling.
I hope for gambling addicts who have problems in gambling, with comments here can be a reference in future life.

Thank you all, greetings, have fun.

You don't need to stop gambling if you are emotionally strong. Mostly, great business people could survive and win gambling often as they are trained and has a lot of experience in handling their emotions. It just means that if you thin your emotion management is weak, that is when you need to stop gambling already. Gambling isn't really a pure lack, it takes a calculated risk and bet in order to win. You are fine in gambling if you always remember this line "gamble that you can afford to lose" if you don't have an amount that willing to lose then, stay away from gambling that is not suitable for you. Nevertheless, if you are going through, you have to make sure to place a bet that won't affect your emotions.

While it may sound easy for those who advise that gambling can be stoped like a switch that you can turn on and off, in reality its not as easy as we think. You need to have a very good reason before you can slowly pull the plug in gambling and you cant do it alone. If you are still single, you can ask someone close to you to help you out, always have a companion that will remind you when to stop. For those who are married, no other choice but its your better half who can help you out.

Its the same for those who are so much into shopping, if you have someone with you that can remind you of how much you already spent, then thats a gift from God.

It is better to stop while you still have time to stop than too late to stop because if you are too late to stop in gambling, we never know what will happen to you. You can become addicted, you can lose all of your money, your family will not care about you, and your life becomes worst without you can imagine. If you are addicted, you need to try to solve the problem as soon as possible before you're going to deep in gambling.

I agree with you, I really tried stopping playing but I only did it for a few days, but after it, I still continue on playing, The best thing I did is to control and play moderately not going all in every time and playing on my the most of my free time I had. It's really hard for an addict on gambling to stop so fast, I think I'm going on a stage that I am adjusting and getting ready to get rid of playing gambling.

The moment people starts considering gambling is just to make money from it the real issues starts to begin . They will play more and more to win every time and it does not happen . They will lose money in process. Also will now play to recover money and by now might even be addicted to it .Those who play Thor enjoyment are the one who enjoy rather then being under stress .

there are winner too that play often . this guys are lucky and skillful at the same time because they know what to do to hit thier desired target in a lesser possible cost than those who play randomly  .

it isnt bad to play to recover what you have lost but it will only becomes bad when you are out of your mind and you do crazy stuff because of it  . i see many people play for recover and some succeed for a long time of trying   . if we knew that gambling is slowly destroying us , wil we going to continue  ?  no obviously  .

And once a person gets addicted to gambling and became a compulsive gambler, there is always an institution eager to help them regain their control.  As long as they admit that they have a gambling problem, it will be easier for them to recover or rehabilitated, with determination and mindset for a better future.  But to those who are in denial, there is no solution for them until they admit they are already addicted to gambling.

Gambling is not all that badd, yh, I know many people frown when they hear about it but in my opinion a controlled gambler can actually make a lot of extra cash. And sometimes, you don't even need to use that much of your own money, especially if you get involved in things like airdrops, and other forms of promotion.

[mu_enrico]

Why a lot of threads here were like this, bad-mouthing gambling? Come on man, we are all adults here, intelligent, and have good self-control. As long as it legal and licensed, people could choose freely whether they want to gamble or not.

Not all people will become gambling addicts.

[Ulven]

Addiction is a bad habit Therefore, the gambler must realize before it is too late, He will lose at any time!!!
I don't think any addict gambler can give up gambling,Stop gambling is accomplished if the desire is there.
The aim of gambling is to have fun only at leisure, so I would advise any beginner not to take gambling as the only way to improve their living conditions.The consequences of the gambling world are serious and can destroy your life from best to worst, Gambling can be pursued with respect to the ideal base. ‘’Try to lose what you can afford to lose’’.

I tend to disagree because most of the guys who fell in gambling addiction are under aged and their parents can only guide them to such centers and professional help but the problem is that their parents would never know their son (well, daughters don't gamble, do they?) is involved in such kind of activities. Threads like these don't help I agree but if every time such threads are opened and even 1 person is able to quit gambling, I believe the thread is worth it!

Even guys like Mayweather (the famous boxer) gambles, so I believe gambling and education have little connection.

It's all go out on how responsible are you when gambling if you have a strong character before you to gambling, you can stop yourself from falling hard on it, a strong character has a strong will, and he knows his priority in life a responsible person knows where to put gambling in his life.

It's easy to say and explain as you did but much harder once you are into a losing loop. Basically a loosing loop is where you loose money, try to recover it and loose again and this repeats itself until you either actually recover your loss (hardly 1% people manage it) or you just loose too much money and even realizing that is not enough in the end because there is no way back.

I think the only way gamblers would stop gambling is when they spend some time with themselves, realize what they are doing and if what they are loosing is too much - STOP and if it's not then continue gambling. In short a small self-checkup is important and key.

That is basically chasing losses and it's not a good idea to continue anymore because you will continue to lose more. I think that is something that most addicted gamblers can't control haven't been mastered already. It's better to leave gambling as soon as you can than to suffer more if a gambler can't think any other way to make some money or recover their losses.

Happiness is always a choice, if they aren't happy with what they are doing—then leave before it destroys you.

[Naida_BR]

There are people who cannot feel that gambling destroys them,
We need someone to tell us that we should stop gambling anymore if we lose our money.
