I knew people who were able to get rid of hard drugs and I knew gambling addicts who lost huge sums of money in casinos but were able to give it up completely. So I think anyone who says they can't give up gambling and other addictions on their own is just cheating themselves and those around them. He either doesn't want to and doesn't have the core.
Addiction isn’t really an easy feat to overcome. And that’s is probably why it’s called an addiction. Whether it’s drug addiction or gambling addiction, it really isn’t easy to overcome it. An individual has to be disciplined strictly in order to overcome. In some cases, the addict needs to get some help in order to overcome the addiction and that where rehab comes in. We all need each other to thrive and survive. An addict especially needs all the patience, understanding and constant monitoring to overcome an addiction cause it really isn’t an easy feat some condition make us addicted in any field. loss in gambling make us curious to try many times till our loss recovered. and in this condition we are not aware , we were started to addicted in gambling. our curious become addicted and hard to stop it till we have no more anything to put in table. maybe goes to psychologist will be good way to stop it.

Addiction is a cure - in whatever form it is be it gambling or alcohol or sex. It steal away the peace of your mind. So better stay away from the things which are going to hurt you and not productive at all.

This is the reason why I don't agree with some people who think that gambling is not just a form of entertainment. There are certain people who believe that gambling is money-making if it is done in a more serious way. I don't think so. The more a person thinks that gambling gives money, the more he is facing the risk of addiction. If it is for fun then a moderate amount of loss is nothing. It is because that money spent was only a sort of payment to the entertainment one gets.
maybe depending in the character or personality of the person involve , this is the reason why some claims that gambling is profitable when they are engaging in gambling all their life. I have also read some people here that tells they are living solely coming from gambling wins and while I doubt this is true yet its been happening for years now so maybe they are truly making its way to win than losing. Whether these people are telling the truth or not, it should always be noted that the large majority of the gamblers are in a loss rather earning. So it is quite wrong for some people who argue that gambling is a good way to make money when they are using data that form part of the minority. In other words those cases are the exceptions rather than the rule. The rule has always been that gambling is more of spending money than earning it.

You just need to work on yourself, not look for someone to blame for your problems, and not run away from problems, but solve them.

To me I think more win in gambling can make one to be addicted in gambling, if one always lose in gambling they wouldn't want to play because it might end up to be a game a lose. But when winning is not scarce it makes one to play game having assurance that their are high chances of winning the game.

It turns out that addiction exists to a greater or lesser extent among those who gamble, whether professionally or as amateurs.

Having the bitter experience will teach you more. Because you don't want to happen that again and the lesson will be sticked to your mind and you don't want that to happen again anymore.
It can be a short thing to you and you'll realize wholly and quickly because you know that it's the best thing to do. You'll have to correct yourself and if there's still the desire to gamble, you will finally be able to control that again so it won't be experienced again.
Gamblers who have the ability to learn the bitter lesson on an early stage can prevent themselves from becoming addicted ones, because this way they aren't going to chase losses, rather they will accept their limitations and understand the house can't be beaten by the players. Doesn't matter how much a gambler has lost, he must realize that money is gone and it must be recovered through another methods. Once he recovers that sum of money, he might think about gambling again, although in a more responsible way. It can also go in different results. Those that have bad experiences can also have the mindset that they should win and chase those losses and as result, they get hooked and will repeat the cycle of beating the house and recovering their losses. The realization is the hardest part for a gambler specially for the newbies. They'll have to think that they can easily recover any amount of money that is lost to them.

There are people who are good in dealing with the finances - they gamble on their money. Put them in trouble and get out of it. But then there are people who are losers and they put others in trouble and gamble on their money. These kind of people are worse of all.

I'd say it will depend on the gambler. There goes the gamblers that would really need a long time before he's able to take a whole healing process.
But for some, it won't take that much because of the burning desire to quit gambling and can't take it anymore as they experience the negative effects of it.
It is why that desire should include that encouragement of having that mindset of quitting addiction.
This bitter experience for me will make the basic point of the mindset, as the way to control already having this experience will not be repeated. yes, the urge is still in our brains to come back again. but I don't want to lose a valuable thing ruining the reputation of the other side's life. all need to plant seeds so that good or less perfect results can be seen, must be corrected again so that they continue to grow well Having the bitter experience will teach you more. Because you don't want to happen that again and the lesson will be sticked to your mind and you don't want that to happen again anymore. It can be a short thing to you and you'll realize wholly and quickly because you know that it's the best thing to do. You'll have to correct yourself and if there's still the desire to gamble, you will finally be able to control that again so it won't be experienced again. Yes, that's right, with what I do to make things better, this can be a strong control and basis for experience. Of course now gambling doesn't make it the main thing for me every day, only betting on football and sports betting that relies on a favorite team competing which makes it still possible to gamble, even though the determination of the prize results must wait a long time for the winnings to be distributed.

It's probably misunderstood but people who can't remove addiction from their lives do not mean they DON'T want to. There's a variety of factors involved when it comes to resolving addiction, and it isn't something that most people would really understand. The world isn't so fantasy-like and such that you'd expect to be able to fix something just because you want to. The examples we mostly see of people being fixed from their addiction are the cases of success but the thing is, it isn't the only case out there. There are cases of failure out there that have tried, but couldn't really push through and their "want" is not the only factor at play here, but maybe others as well such as financial issues, proper access to help, environment etc.
You are right and I quite agree with you. I still stand by my earlier statement that addiction isn’t some easy feat to overcome and overcome alone. Some addicts would need serious help from other in order to get better. In that scenario, self discipline can only take you so far. I think someone who has come to terms with an addiction problem wouldn’t like to remain an addict and would like to get better.

Pretty easy. You are addicted once you think you are doing a wrong thing continuously. It's hard to reject that desire , to keep playing even you know you have nothing left. At that point you are in a dangerous position to get yourself in a dangerous actions against yourself.
The solution pretty easy as well , as long as you have a strong will to recover from those dark times ... you could always back to where you belong as a regular guy with busy time in your daily routine.

I think someone who has come to terms with an addiction problem wouldn’t like to remain an addict and would like to get better. Beating an addiction is probably one of the hardest things people can do, and the reason for this is that this is not something that is over after you receive professional help, it is a struggle that happens every single day and even a single moment of weakness can be more than enough for the person to go back to his addiction, it is because of this that many of those which are addicted do not try anymore as they have experimented so many failures to leave their addiction behind they believe it is not possible for them to reach this goal.

Are we one of the online gambling addicts...? Huh Huh Huh Why are you even asking this question? What do you mean by "we"? Most of the forum members aren't gambling addicts. Are you a gambling addict? Addiction is a serious mental illness and it requires serious help from professionals. Knowing the symptoms of a gambling addict isn't enough. I've seen multiple gambling addicts that don't show any symptoms at all. They look and talk like completely normal people and nobody knows what is happening inside their heads. My cousin was a gambling addict and he was acting perfectly fine. The strange thing about him is that he was obese and was suffering from really high blood pressure(probably caused by his obesity). He died several months ago.

What if you are just paranoid? And you think you did something wrong but you didn't actually while those who are truly addicted in the game are the one's who think they are right and won't agree to other people who questions their behavior. Therefore I disagree on your opinion that being addicted is measured on how we think if we are right or wrong. I think there are sites which conducts a test to see if you are now an addicted gambler or not. Maybe that can help better to know your conditions. The people around you can also tell if what are your status in gambling if you are still normal or you will need to do some actions. We need to follow them if we want to change.

Having the bitter experience will teach you more. Because you don't want to happen that again and the lesson will be sticked to your mind and you don't want that to happen again anymore.
It can be a short thing to you and you'll realize wholly and quickly because you know that it's the best thing to do. You'll have to correct yourself and if there's still the desire to gamble, you will finally be able to control that again so it won't be experienced again.
Yes, that's right, with what I do to make things better, this can be a strong control and basis for experience. Of course now gambling doesn't make it the main thing for me every day, only betting on football and sports betting that relies on a favorite team competing which makes it still possible to gamble, even though the determination of the prize results must wait a long time for the winnings to be distributed. With experience, you'll have the control to yourself. Because you've seen that many things didn't go accordingly to what you've planned, that's all what you want to do. And you have to bet only to where you're good at. So if it's sports betting and foot ball matches, stick to it and don't be too aggressive as it can still make you addicted. Casual bets are pretty normal and good.

I am not sure - how they people feel a sleep with no regret and remorse.

I knew people who were able to get rid of hard drugs and I knew gambling addicts who lost huge sums of money in casinos but were able to give it up completely. So I think anyone who says they can't give up gambling and other addictions on their own is just cheating themselves and those around them. He either doesn't want to and doesn't have the core.
Addiction isn’t really an easy feat to overcome. And that’s is probably why it’s called an addiction. Whether it’s drug addiction or gambling addiction, it really isn’t easy to overcome it. An individual has to be disciplined strictly in order to overcome. In some cases, the addict needs to get some help in order to overcome the addiction and that where rehab comes in. We all need each other to thrive and survive. An addict especially needs all the patience, understanding and constant monitoring to overcome an addiction cause it really isn’t an easy feat Most people don't have an opinion. They prefer to be directed because they are not used to taking responsibility for their actions. Such people find it difficult not only to overcome addiction, but even to live in society. But if a person has life priorities, goals, and a sufficient level of self-discipline, he is able to overcome any addiction. You just need to work on yourself, not look for someone to blame for your problems, and not run away from problems, but solve them. It was ideal but it doesn't happen in real life. As a person gets addicted, his sense of reasoning and impulse are affected. That is why it is called a disorder because an addicted person has an uncontrollable urge to the things again and again. Those people who are able to control themselves without any help from medical experts isn't addicted at all or possibly show sign of addiction but not really addicted yet. They may be hooked to gambling games but not addicted to them. Being hooked is different from being addicted because being addicted to gambling means you cannot control yourself when it comes to gambling and you need medical treatment for that.
