What the OP said is really true. If the negative aspect arises whenever you gamble and it outweighs the positive impact in your life, I guess it is time to move on and forget gambling. I know it is easy to say but hard in real life. And that I think is also one of the major struggles of gamblers. Those who want to change their gambling habit is in their difficult phase and needs will power to achieve their goals in life. One should always remind himself why he is doing it, should be doing for himself and not anybody else.
Of course gambling can wreck and ruin an addict life you gave good point to support the OP opinion here obviously the negativity attached to gambling is quite more than the good side of it however what baffles me here is the growing number of gambling sites on daily basis a clue to the fact there is also a growing numbers of gamblers meaning a lot of them are finding it hard to quit.

The word destroy for gamblers is subjective, he might not be aware of it and takes it something that normally happens to any gambler so he will not accept any kind reasoning, as long as he can balance his winnings and his losses, I don't think he can admit that he needs help, but when he is not winning and losing everything, maybe that's the time that he will realize that he needs help.
Destroy is not really as "subjective" as you might imagine. If you are unhappy with the results and your finances are in the drains that means it destroys you. Yes, the amount changes for everyone and for some people you might be spending 1000 dollars per bet and not destroy your life while for some others spending 10 dollars per bet is destroying them but that can be only known by that person and not us. I always say calculate what your total liquid cash amount is that you can spend right now and do not gamble more than 1% of that. If you gamble more than 1% that is getting closer and closer to leaving you without any money in the end. However playing on just 1% of your whole cash means it won't matter all that much.

People who want to stop gambling just stop. They don't find reasons why not to and excuses why they can't. It's like smoking. You either stop over night or you never stop. All those limitations like I will only smoke 5 a day don't really work. I don't know anyone who has stopped smoking that way.
I am going on holiday in a few days with a couple of friends. All of them are poker and slot machine fans. I am not. We do have sports betting in common though. I already know how much I will spend gambling on sports. We are going to try and win some money to have a better time elsewhere. If it doesn't work it doesn't work.
My point it, It's OK to gamble a little bit but if you get hooked to it, you don't have anyone else to blame but yourself. People recover from cancer, loosing arms and legs in accidents. Those are real problems. Understand what is important in your life. Your health and your family or that feeling you get when you gamble. If you can't differentiate between those two you are lost.
A certain gambling addict cannot stop gambling instantly, just like how you compared it to smoking addiction. If you are really eager to quit gambling, you need to completely stop it, you cannot end it by reducing the time or the money you spent on it. Always think about the consequences and find some alternatives so that you can focus on it instead of gambling. Well, for me i will not leave gambling because this is my stress reliever especially in my work schedule. But i dont gamble in Dice and in other gambling that based on luck i only gamble in Sport Betting like in Basketball especially in Boxing because I'm very happy to watch boxing and this give me good relaxation while im in home..
It's good for you because you gamble only for stress reliever and I think you enjoying gamble. Some gamblers they gamble because they want to win big money they want an instant money but they don't know they are getting addicted on gambling. So it's so nice for you sir because you gonna gamble for only to enjoy and have fun. Consider it a good thing that you are not considering gambling as something that would feed your greed for money, you are instead using it for entertainment. Keep on doing what you're doing to suffice satisfaction over your stress reliever but still be mindful so that it wouldn't end up in addiction leading to an unhealthy financial state.

Always think about the consequences and find some alternatives so that you can focus on it instead of gambling. I think there must be another job to be able to forget from gambling addiction at least there are activities to eliminate the addiction, if there is no activity at all then the addiction will continue to exist even difficult to forget it. And think clearly that gambling is not everything to make money because there are other jobs more than that, it's better to play gambling on weekends to get rid of fatigue.

I had a different situation. I loved going to a nightclub. There are a lot of girls in the night club, and that's great! But on the second floor of the club there was a casino ... At the entrance to the club, when I bought the entrance ticket, I received free chips in the casino. And then I won at the casino! And I forgot about the girls and started playing all the time. I stopped dating girls. I had money. I often won at the casino. But I had no more sex. That was bad.
Your story is funny though. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) You already have the money so it would be not a problem anymore to date girls. But in your case, it seems you found your happiness in gambling. But for those gamblers who really are in deep debt owed to gambling, I think they need to evaluate their situation and maybe, gambling is not for them. On my part, I gamble from time to time but only using my extra money, so gambling has no big impact on my financial situation. So far, it is not destroying me but rather providing means of entertainment whenever I have free time. Yes. Now I have learned to control my actions. Now I have no game addiction. In general, one addiction can only be defeated by another. I started playing computer games. Half an hour a day And over time, my addiction to playing in a casino disappeared. And now I play in a casino, play computer games, play sports and sex. Everything is fine. Life has become interesting and harmonious! This is cool that you have timely realized the consequences of gambling addiction and have found a decent way of overcoming addiction. There is a saying that explains what you said about one habit killing another i.e. diamond cuts diamond. Those who have addiction shall understand this point.

Gambling can't give good things to most of the gamblers because most of the time, gambling just ruins the lives of the gamblers who are spending most of time on it. If you gambled without moderation then there is a high chance that you can get addicted into it then it will start to destroy your life either temporarily or permanently. Gambling ruined many lives already around the world and it will as long as there are people who are gambling. In case of gambling sites, there are many gambling sites online already and the numbers of gamblers are still growing as they can have access and can gamble in an easy way. They don't need to go into a casino just to gamble because now they can gamble with the use of smartphone and an internet. With this, the number of gamblers will increase and if it is hard but if they don't know how to control themselves then they will get addicted into it in no time.

Everything you do seems fun. Now I often do gambling to get rid of my boredom with saturated gambling is gone but I'm afraid to be addicted to gambling and therefore I also want you like there is another time playing games when gambling continues to lose then this will be my interest not to be addicted in gambling. The worst part is that my game was combined with alcohol. I found that by drinking shots I won by playing in the casino. Then after each victory I started buying absinthe. I drank absinthe and won again! Absinthe is profit, absinthe is profit ... I drank absinthe 20 times. I had an altered state. I guessed 50 out of 100. 20 times in a row! My winnings were very big, but I was very drunk!

Many people ignore this kind of call whenever someone is telling them to do so. regardless of their current bad situation in this industry, they pursue to engage in it even though the result is always unwanted. If you still persist on gambling when you are losing all the time, it means you are now certified addicted to this thing and you should help yourself from getting away with it. some people took it seriously by going to the psychiatrist by stating their addiction. therefor, they get some advice and some precautionary on how to leave gambling permanently.

A smart choice of the type of game you are gambling with. Gambling with sports has a literally higher chance of winning compared to dice and many more traditional gambling games we see in casinos. In your case quitting gambling is not necessary because it sounds like you have total control over it, just don't go over betting .

As long as gambling is not used as a life goal, I think it will be fine. Make gambling just to find entertainment by not spending most of the money we have. I realized that people who are addicted to gambling are not rich and have lots of money. But experiencing confusion because of it. As I said before, Playing gambling is only for entertainment, when you experience defeat leave and come back when the mind needs entertainment again.

You can gamble for fun only if you play with a quantity of money that you can consider lost. If you are gambling with money that you need you are doing it wrong.
It is very hard to win in the long term and only a few people can do it.

Boring to live without excitement. You need to seduce girls. Need to gamble. Fight bad people. Fighting fate. It is important to feel like a living person. Methods may vary. The goal is not only money. There is a great movie "Casino Royale." There, the main character is James Bond. His motivation is not in money.

You cannot make a decision for another person. Need to gamble? I dont know. People love to challenge fate. Everyone should try this. And then draw conclusions. For example, four musketeers. They loved risk. They loved to gamble. In the 21st century, people also love risk and love to gamble. 50/50.

Another thing which i experience in gambling is that people start gambling thinking they are doing it for fun but soon they fall in too much addiction that they stop only when gambling have destroyed them. Most people realize it when they have already lost all or most of their money in gambling.

If you don't want to give gambling a chance to destroy you, you should never, ever risk more money than you can earn in one day. And if you gamble frequently, your max bet should not exceed 10% of your daily income As such, it is not losses that herald the destruction of your financial well-being (or just well-being) It is losses that come after a win, probably a big win on its own, which make the lives of so many gamblers miserable. In this manner of reasoning, it is not so much about controlling your losses, like no more than 10% of your daily income (though it is indeed about losses too) as about controlling your wins, however ironic it may sound. It is actually wins that make gamblers reckless and careless, so wins should be of our primary concern. To summarize, you should take utmost care of your wins lest you should lose control over your losses Indeed, what destroys many gamblers is their wins, not losses. Wins make them addicted. It's not that I can't relate completely to that situation, I used to be like them when starting with gambling. But then I realized at some point that good wins rarely happen, and if you were lucky to have one, you better celebrate the occasion instead of risking to lose all your wins and more. Once I won 0.17 in a poker tournament, and a friend of mine said to me: "Great! Now you can buy 17 tickets for similar tournaments with those money! Surely you will win more in the end." But I've never bought a single ticket worth 0.01 since then. In my opinion, luck plays too big of a part, even in games like poker, to risk what you can't afford to lose in one day.
