Ways to recover from being addicted in gambling.

[bitcoinst]

Family plays a big factor if you want to recover from gambling, our family is our motivation why we are working hard and why we are savings for the future, we get lost sometimes but our love for our family will always get us back to our senses and responsibility if you have a strong bond with your family you can overcome all obstacles.

Not all addicts have families. Many families turned away from them and do not want to see them.
Therefore, it is extremely important to find like-minded people who replace you with the warmth and love of the family.
It would be best if they were people with similar problems who were able to get through them and cope with them.
In this case, such a community will have something to lose, which means together they will support each other.

I just found a very good book, skimmed the book and I'm surprised how deep the problems are for the addict.

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.

   But we need to have a control! Without control chances to become an addict are higher. Having control doesn't mean that you gamble
just couple hours weekly, it means you have a control over your wallet and your needs, you know how much you have and how many you
can spend for specific need. When you have a control you will not allow yourself to get into a problem, you will prevent that in the beginning.
   Happy reading, and I hope we will hear more about that book!

Looks convincing to read by all gamblers, not only addicted ones. But it seems we need an amount of money to get this book. 46,00 € for eBook and 57,19 € for softcover. However, it is always worthed as knowledge is something priceless.

I'd suggest those who are gambling addict to seek for professional help, and not just follow the common sense methods.

Sure. For severe cases of gambling addiction, they need experts or professional help. There are some special treatments to be done and common people won't understand about it. The chance to recover isn't the same as a mild addiction, so it needs different ways and more serious treatments.

Some gambling addicts undergoes prohibition or enrolling in rehabilitation services to get rid of the addiction in themselves and this has a high chance of getting the problem solved.

The idea about that statement is that often people didn't realize they already became a gambling addict. They think they are "in control," but in fact, the urge already controlled them. I understand that self-control is important; however, don't be overconfident. Check it periodically since perhaps last month, you were still in control, but today you are not.

You could always search the pirated free version of it. It's there somewhere on the internet lol.

Having Discipline - this is for me the best way to recover from gambling addiction. Having discipline includes learning how to control yourself in different situations, being patient at all times etc. etc. A undisciplined gambler always loss his money trust me.

Help of the family - Aside from the 1st way that I said, your family will be a great help for you to recover from being addicted too. Instead of spending your time gambling, you can still spend your time with your family and you will spend less money on it.

Vising a pro mental and health expert - They can share an advice for you in order for you to recover from it but still, if your body doesn't want to recover from gambling addiction then it will be useless.

I think the solution to addiction is to isolate the addict in some home for addicts where there are specialist doctors on the subject. The addict needs to spend some time with other people who are addicted and talk to these people and medical experts on the subject. just like that it is possible to make a good treatment to leave the addiction. I know that a lot of people here talked about family and friends, but is it really that they already had an addict at home? as much as it hurts to say it, the best help that family and friends can do Is have the courage to put the addict in some rehab home for addicts

I think in these situations, they can use the time to isolate themselves at homes because they cannot go to gambling places. It will better if they shut down the internet access, so they don't try to browse the gambling website. This time, the family will be necessary to give attention to that person who has addicted so they can feel that their family care with them. Putting the addict into some rehab home will be the last option if the family cannot help the addict.

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.

Our family can do much to help us avoid gambling addiction, as I have proven that once I was addicted to gambling. We always listen to their advice to us because it will benefit us especially if we already have our own families. It will serve as a lesson or a way to keep ourselves from gambling and to focus more on our family and our time. We need it for us to have control over gambling and to have limitation for it.

This shows how an addiction not only affects those that are directly involved in it, their families are affected as well, for what I know most of the time the family always tries to help the person that is addicted and when nothing works they are left with no option but to give their backs to their loved one with the hopes their rejection will eventually wake the addict up to the fact that he is destroying his life and that he needs to get professional help.

To do this, you need to have a strong connection with your family values and your family.
Often, people who are addicted, have these connections partially or completely destroyed, which does not allow them to use such a powerful resource for healing.

Nice thread mate, compulsive gamblers should read this one, there are so many addict gamblers both online gambling and real life gambling. Real lifw gambling is more familiar compared to online gambling because as far as I remember, one of my friend told me that real life gambling is much better compared to online gambling because of several reasons.

You wouls not think to waste your time in gambling because it is really better to spend your time with your family.

Advises are very good but the problem is Compulsive and addicted gamblers will only deny these advises and will Ignore people that tells them to stop or even control their gambling time.

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.

I highly agree with this,

Realization is what really helps up on how to wake up or recover from being addicted to gambling, especially if you lose too much. Seeing how it affects your life financially and emotionally will make you change and start to avoid gambling little by little.

most addicts yes because they tend to foccus more on thier addiction but some addicts realizes that they are doing it wrong  and will seek out help for other people or on thier own parents/family members  .

  i was once going to becoming addict that i was looking to pawn my own items because i want to go back paying for my loss but i was still thinking twice and i ask advice from my wife  .  she helped me ease those feelings  resulting for me to calm down and play safer on my next gambling session  .

[verita1]

I agree! Those would be the steps a gambling addict needs to begin a frank recovery. Self-control is also the most important of all the measures that will be learned to improve their quality of life and those of their loved ones.
I have heard that gambling addictions are due to many factors as well as deficiencies that the individual tries to fill with gambling addiction.

Isn't addiction meant to have a dependency desire from what was originally for fun. If you continue gambling, it means you can't get rid of your addiction completely, it can only control your emotions when the addiction comes back.

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.

<...>

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.

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.

True, help yourself to fight against this addiction. Gambling addiction is manageable unlike other addictions. If one wants to recover from being addict he or she should follow some steps that will help him or her completely to quit gambling and fight being addict. Here are some tips I have, first is to talk to your family. Tell them that you have a problem with your unhealthy gambling and became addicted to it. Second, limit your money, it is very important that you have money management to start with. This will help you to lessen losses. Also, have self-discipline and self-control also try to minimize going on physical or online casinos. Try to think other activities that will help you to get your mind out of gambling even for a while, trust me a little steps counts as big help. If you still not satisfied for the outcome better seek for a counseling or support session these will help you to build self-destructive patterns and addresses some issues you still have on gambling. Medication might help you for mental health condition or disorders. Lastly, change your lifestyle. A great recovery become successful if you help yourself and focus on your purpose.

Having no self-control whether you are following a good certain guides, you will not conquer yourself and it won't help you. You can agree to what the list is saying but during the applications, you'll find it hard to conquer the addiction. The help must start from you, from within, because all of that advice, you just have to follow but if you keep on doing nothing and you are losing your control. Those tips are useless and not helpful to you.

I agree from what you've said, but let me add a bit. Yes, it's needed for those addicted in gambling to be put inside a rehabilitation center for treatments, medications, and counselling especially those who are hardcore addicted to it. However, they must address it slowly. The gambling addict must first willing to recover and already accepted his condition that he needs help from other people. Otherwise, he/she will not totally recover.

The encouragement and moral support from their loved ones matter too to boost their willingness to recover. Then that's the proper time for them to go to rehabilitation facilities to talk and be medicated by the experts. It's also true that it will be beneficial for them to talk to other patients undergoing treatment for addiction whether it's the same case or not, so they could get an insight and learn a lesson or two that could also motivate them to quit and surpass their addiction.
