Ways to recover from being addicted in gambling.

[peter0425]

Limiting your budget for gambling is one of the ways to recover from gambling addiction.
But if you really wanna stop then be responsible to yourself, no one can really help you but yourself. No one can help you recover and stop. So help yourself.

actually Our family and friends can Help us but if we are ready to accept their help because if not then no one can enter your life and the addiction will never stop.

i am once a addict thats why i know that we must be Open for others so they can find place where to start to guide us to the good part of life and not just the darkness of gambling.

I want to help those people who really abused by the gambling, let me list down all possible solution that they may use to recover from being addicted in gambling.

Do you really believe that your list of solutions will bring changes to life of addicted gamblers? I am asking this because I have seen a lot of people have been always emphasizing about the dangers of gambling and methods to avoid gambling addictions but people are regularly getting into gambling and becoming addicted to it (we are observing them by their sharing about their gambling experience).

Addicted gamblers are known for not finding time to self evaluating about themselves and their gambling activities. This is the reason gambling addictions are always leading to big disasters. I mean that you may bring lots of solutions for addicted gamblers but none of them will be working to at least for one gambler because gamblers are too busy with their gambling and they will never think about working on any of suggested solutions.

Limiting your budget for gambling is one of the ways to recover from gambling addiction.

For an addicted one, there is no limit for them. As long as they have money, they will try to gamble it until there is nothing left with him.
That is how an addicted gambler is. Its like an addicted gamer, you will spend most of your time and some of your money in playing. Same with an addicted gambler that will spend their time and money in gambling.

But if you really wanna stop then be responsible to yourself, no one can really help you but yourself. No one can help you recover and stop. So help yourself.

Gamblers must know the risk they might face before they try to gamble because as they always say, gambling is like hell and it will be hard for them to recover from it or getting out from it.
Its not that no one can really help you but aside for yourself, you might wanna seek the help of your family because they can help you and might change your mind. I don't agree with what you said that no one can help you recover and stop. There are some cases where the family of the gambler helped him to change his mindset and the end result is good. They helped the gambler to recover and to stop him from gambling.

There are so many gamblers in this virtual world or even in the real life, there are some that can be considered as a compulsive gambler or those really addicted in gambling. That is the worst thing that you may acquire in gambling, in which that all the things that you are usually doing are now nothing, you are only focused on gambling, even your relationships on your friends and family are affected.

I want to help those people who really abused by the gambling, let me list down all possible solution that they may use to recover from being addicted in gambling.
1. Focus on your family or friends - if you have strong relationship with your family and friends then you will forget to play gambling, and they may help you to limit yourself from gambling.
2. List all things that were affected by gambling - if you can see all the things that were affected because of gambling then you may realize that it has no goods to give you, then I hope that it makes you think to stop gambling.
3. Read and Search about gambling addiction - if you can see all people that have been affected because of gambling then you may stop from being addicted on it, there are some people's life that already destroyed because of gambling.
4. Meet and visit experts or professionals about mental health - If you really want to limit yourself from gambling, but you can't then you may visit some experts and listen to their advise.

Very well said mate, there are a lot of ways for you to recover yourself from being addicted in gambling, and on of the best way that you have said is focusing on your family or friends, if you have strong connection on your family and friends, then I don;t think that you will find gambling anymore, if you are gambling because of entertainment, then your friends and your family can give it to you more than gambling can give to you. But if you are gambling because you want to earn money, then you better stop it because there is a little chance of winning any gambling sites, because the one who win in gambling site is the owner of the websites.

Indeed, actually that is the first thing that came in my mind when talking about recovering from being addicted in gambling, Your friends and your family is a big help for you. You can find happiness in your family and friends compared to gambling, because you will only be happy if you win the game, but actually that is really impossible because it is really hard to win in gambling. Only the owners are the winners in different gambling sites. but have you ever thought that your family and your friends won't help you if you are really into gambling? if that is the case then I think those professionals are the one that is the best to meet and acquire some advice from them.

Absolutely true, it is not easy to recover from addiction like in Gambling but there's always a way to get out of it such as your family. Make them your priority and focus to forget the mistakes you have done. But also i will just add some tips, addiction is not easy, one you could possibly do is to minimize the money you use in Gambling until you no longer do gamble. Also, let go to the past losses like money, this is one of the important thing to do when recovering from addiction. Money can cause you big problems financially and mentally, money will always come and go, you can earn it anytime because the more time you worry about it the more you are drown to the thought of it and will cause you anxiety or depression even more. Successful recovery will be effective if you are willing to help yourself in the first place.

Very accurate. Addicted people are always having a hard time to cure their addiction, because they are abusing themselves by continuously getting addicted because they thought that it is the cure, but they are wrong. If they will continue to tolerate their urge to gamble, then they will not have the opportunity to rethink and reconsider things or advices from their friends to help them from their addiction.

Cooperation is the key to achieve their goal to eradicate their addiction in gambling, even in other fields of addiction as well.

[Best Dreams]

 I think this corona will set a lot of people back on addiction because everyone is isolated at home and they have nothing to do, they don't go to work and they they are basically stuck at home. So of course a lot of people will be working at home and they are totally focusing on gambling by the looks of it which is why there will be a lot more people gambling, and there would be some people who recently quit or maybe quit a bit ago that will relapse and start gambling again.

 Hopefully this won't take too long and we will once again go outside, the more we stay inside the more addictions will get worse, not just gambling but other ones as well and that is why it is risky, think of all the people who needs to go to therapy who can't because of it, people who go to psychologist and so forth, basically all have to stuck at home and can't get the help they need.

That's the problem with people who are already attached to this problem, after getting lots of time inside their house they can easily turn their back to again play the games they wanted to play. Addictions to this activities needs a broader help coming from your close relatives, they needed to keep you
busy to other things and not to allow you to be alone since you can just play and gamble back.

If most people at home are addicted to it will be increasingly crazy, which at home is very easy to play gambling. And also if the addiction is too severe, then I'm sure the person concerned will play even more. Because it is impossible for people to survive in the house without doing anything, while the relevant hobby is playing gambling.

This is another serious issue but nothing could be done for this on an official level. The family must keep an eye on the addicts and since it is lockdown almost all over the world, family members can help each other in curbing their addictive desires and actions. This will help reduce addiction to large extend.

Cooperation with self will are the best tools to eliminate this addiction inside your mindset, if you are fully willing to quit away it's not hard for you
to recover. There are people who manage to move out from this problem not because of any help but first the will to quit should be the first thing
then additions of those love coming from caring relatives and friends.

I was addicted to gambling then and it is very difficult to get rid of this vice because even trying to avoid it is difficult. So it's really helpful when you have the inspiration to fight it, and this is my personal advice to get rid in Gambling Addiction

1 - Always think about your child, and see if you are giving them a good life or fulfilling your duty to them.
2- Focus on something else, try to get busy to get rid of gambling.
3 - Spend time to your family.

Really sound easy though but tell you it was totally a tough thing to do especially when you are really used to do such stuff that your body, and mind are automatically been doing it or for short it was more like a life cycle of yours. So once you get to be able on considering quitting into it, I must say that you reached the peak of getting out on the so-called problem. Because, IMO, quitting willingly wasn't an easy stuff to execute it is like resisting your favorite food lol. But anyway, it gambling isn't problem at all especially if you don't harm anybody on doing it, and you are playing fine however once you abused it, I mean your body, time and money then the problem is in your mindset now that needs to be checked, and be settled. Thus, quitting was the very best factor of getting rid into it.

This is why the first step a person needs to take to beat any kind of addiction he may have is to admit that he is addicted, an addicted gambler that does not recognize that he is addicted is never going to look for help or he will think that despite having a problem he can somehow solve it by himself, many people that are addicted are unable to do this and they need to hit rock bottom before they look for any kind of help, but by that time it is too late and even if they get better their life is most likely ruined already.

If we get addicted to gambling it does sometimes have bad effects, it can even interfere with life in real life. I strongly agree
with the tips that have been mentioned in the opening post. I will just add it, in my opinion the best solution to reduce addiction
we are against gambling by increasing religious activities according to our respective religions. I have practiced it on myself
and proven effective.

Becoming addicted has a bad effect (not just sometimes) physically and mentally. The relationship with our family are affected as well due to this addiction so as early as we can we have to think deeply and realize whats more important. The changes should start with ourself it might not easy but if you're determine to stop you can do it. Switching to other activities and have bonding with family and friends often can help to minimize our time to gamble and less thinking of it.

How can religious activities decrease your gambling activities?
Does it mean that you allocate more time to religion than gambling?
I believe that religion do not stop you from gambling or it depends on how much religious you are. Better spend time with your friends and family and get love from them.

When we talk from the outside is easy to talk about all kinds of theory but the reality is different.If these addicted persons don’t get professional help together with their family staying near them and cheering them for this big step they are about to undertake.Only in this way chances of recovery are real chances.

 Maybe I'll add willingness to those that are enumerated above. Because I believe that even though you're already seeing a way to stop or limit yourself in gambling, if you still want to gamble you'll just find an excuse and not a solution. In addition, self discipline. You will be the one to tell yourself to limit and not the other. Control your emotions. Follow what is the best for you.

agree on that,Family still and the main reason why addicted gamblers recovers and secondary is professional Help.

Our family will never leave us behind no matter what we did but please let them enter our system and never hide from them.

so many gamblers losses everything because they throw their family away and that will never bring us fortune in gambling and in real life.

Indeed, all the possible solution that you stated above about recovering in gambling are very effective, but in some aspects all of the possible solutions that we can do to prevent of being addicted in gambling are not surely effective because it will always defend on person's perspective in life. There are some addicted in gambling are attending in rehabilitation center to help them to recover it, but some people are going back again as an addicted gambler. So that there are some solution are not so effective to help an addicted gambler.

There are a lot of things and way that you can do to recover to have a huge failure to the gambling, and one of the best things to do and base on my experience is to have several days to make some thinking like after I lose a huge a lot of money after that I stop for a while for almost three days and take a rest for a while does not mind my lose and back to the hobbies I like and forget for a while after not being completed because I did not play for a day I made a conclusion about the things I have a mistake and learn for it and use this as an advantage so I do the things I learned from the mistake, also I just leave it here that the experience is the best teacher of all.

Thinking about the risks and consequences or too much gambling would make us realize that we could lose everything if we'll never control it. As for me, we should look for the best way to earn instead of risking our funds in gambling. Try to look for a stable job so you would focus on your goals. It's mind over matter so we have to take control of our emotions or else, it will be the one to control us. Keep yourself busy in other aspects of life so you will be able to get rid of gambling addiction.

I just found a very good book, skimmed the book and I'm surprised how deep the problems are for the addict.
https://www.springer.com/gp/book/9783319624846

I think this book will be my current reading material. I'd suggest those who are gambling addict to seek for professional help, and not just follow the common sense methods.

One thing that I remember is "I can control the urge thus no problem" mentality should be changed to "it may already destroy me without me noticing" mentality.

I'll tell more when I finish this book.
