how many times have you intended to stop gambling

[_act_]

Not that much. I only stopped playing when I started watching streamers like Roshtein, Train, DeuceAce, etc on Twitch. Before, if I have money I will keep playing regardless of how much time I consume. Times that I want to stop gambling is right after a depleted bankroll.
These days, I'm glad that I can better accept losing, unlike before.

Two things that are important in gambling is to accept profit or loss. Some gamblers do not want to accept winning or loss, that is why you will see some people that will lose and keep on gambling and lose more until they do not have money again to gamble. But that is not all, so are also some people that win but they are not satisfied until they win more, but instead they may begin to lose the amount of money they won and they may lose more. If you win, best to stop gambling for that day. If you lose, best to stop gambling for that day. Gambling is fun, but we should also think of the winning and the losing aspect.

This means you are doing bad with yourself by playing unlimited gambling and stopping only when you have lost all your money. In this case, even if you make money, you will just keep on playing to lose in the end. I don't think this is a good strategy unless and until you have a lot of money and losing it does not make any difference to your life.

For many people like me, its a nightmare to lose in gambling and we try our best that our loss is minimum. Also if we win any amount in gambling, the first priority is to stop gambling and save the profits.

It's a nightmare if we can't afford to lose that money, nevertheless I will agree though, I have played with money that I can lose, but at the end of the day, I hate that feeling when you go home from a land base casinos and lost your money.

So majority of us may have thinking of kicking this bad habit. But it's really hard specially if you have the means to play again and again. As for watching streamers? not my type though, I guess I have been in gambling way before this streamers existed.

But for those that are addicted to gambling it's a very difficult habit to stop, I have seen and heard so many stories of people trying to stop gambling and some of them have successfully stopped while the rest couldn't stop gambling.

There's nothing too difficult that can't be resolved in the world, For the fact that we have people who has stopped gambling even though they were addicted then I see no reason why others can't follow the same footsteps and get their addiction under control. What matters most is the willingness and determination by the gamblers to quit. Some addicts aren't ready yet but been forced by either their family members or the society.

In this type of situation, the exercise won't be successful with them because they aren't doing this with willingness but been forced but you see those who have made up their mind to quit gambling themselves or let go of the addiction, everything will just flow and it'll look very easy to record success with them.

Gambling has become an everyday thing for some people and this act has lead to serious addiction which is not good. When gambling we should understand that we are just playing for fun. Most people i know around always take gambling as a very serious issue and i have this particular friend that always complains to me how he has stopped gambling but from no where you still see him gambling again. Me myself am a sesonal gambler and i only gamble on the sport i know which is soccer, i think exploration of new gambling games you are familiar with also causes this repeated feeling of always quitting gambling. I just want to know if this phrase is common among everyone or its just he catch phrase whenever you experiences a big loss.

As ridiculous as it may sound, I tend to experience this, especially when I suffer losses that I wasn't prepared for. Gambling is intended to be enjoyable, I know, but there may be emotional harm when you lose some games, such as those you were so confident in but lost in the end.

We all know how difficult it is to predict football games to draw, so I had 6 games selected. Of those, 5 ended in draws with no goals scored, and the sixth game was going smoothly until the final minutes (about 87 minutes after a substitution) when this s*lly guy came off the bench and scored a goal. I was outraged because the odds were high, and I was expecting free weekend money only for that player to spoil my tickets and change my mood, but the funniest thing is that I have opened more than 3 bets after that, I find it fun to play when I am bored that's why I keep coming back to play.

For me, I've never tried to stop gambling, and I've never gambled out of my will as well, I am not addicted to gambling in any way, I have the power to stop and power to continue gambling just any time I feel like, gambling is always fun for me, but I cant help but state that there are times we allow our emotion drive us, and this is how most of us end up making really stupid mistakes that some times, lead to loss of money.

Only a person with gambling addiction would struggle to stop gambling, for those who are not addicted, its very easy to stop if you have want,.

When you arent that addicted then there's no need for you to stop because gambling is never been bad, it just turns out to be bad on the time that you do make out some intentions to it on making money because it
does really create that kind of motive in mind that you should push further on playing for you to make money.You cant really just make things possible on whats up into your mind because thats no how gambling works.
Chances of winning could really be determined with luck which is really that normal and this is why you shouldnt really make yourself desperate.Having a control towards your gambling activity or deal up
is crucial because if you arent really that good with this then you do know on whats next.

[blockman]

I think the main factor in avoiding gambling is having the intention to get out of gambling addiction and wisely deciding not to continue gambling when the loss reaches the gambling balance limit,

You need to have the intention to get out of gambling if you don't want to be addicted to it. People intend to stop because they see how it's not suiting their lives.

Only a person with gambling addiction would struggle to stop gambling, for those who are not addicted, its very easy to stop if you have want,.

But even if the person isn't addicted, there come the stage that sometimes they'll feel that they should stop because of the feeling that it gives them.

[Casdinyard]

It has been integrated into my gambling discipline. Everytime I feel like I have lost enough for the day, A thought at the back of my head will remind me I should take a breather and I listen to that voice because it knows better than I do that I need to take a step back and maybe control myself. The key to becoming a healthy gambler isn't knowing when to stop or when not to, because let's face it sometimes we're just on a streak of losses or of victories and we don't wanna be interrupted, but what sets a good gambler and a gambler that is likely to be addicted later down the line for me is how they respond when they finally get the urge to stop gambling and rest. A good gambler will listen to that, maybe even reflect upon the actions he committed prior to stopping. A bad gambler will not stop even if his life depended on it.

I've personally tried, and succeeded at, quitting certain types of gambling - namely horse racing after my first experience with them went down very badly after swapping from football. I've also kept away from poker because while it seems fun at first, you can win when you're super concentrated, it can quickly turn into a grind and the focus is quickly lost after a few days, although it's clear that a small group of people are able to make a decent profit from it. Besides that, I think since it's only placing very small value bets that it would be easy to walk away from betting altogether but I can see how a lot of people might feel trapped if they've poured so much in and they wrongly chase their losses.

Saw some of their videos as well and realized the same thing, that chasing your losses is not a good idea at all. I stopped gambling when financial problems hit me before and that is the start of my realization. Now, I’m an occasional gambler and can control myself now from the addiction before, there’s always a second chance with gambling, you just need to be more responsible next time and avoid the same mistakes, being greedy is not good at all.

[SirLancelot]

The intention to stop gambling certainly always crosses everyone's mind. It's just that it can't be done in a nutshell. Once again I say that maybe stopping gambling is not a solution, but if we divert or change the perspective of gambling as just a game then the risk of addiction will not be too bad. Most of those who are addicted clearly cannot bring themselves to stop no matter how strong the result is nil.

Personally, even though I have been gambling for years, it feels like I can still control what I want. For example, whether there is money or not, I still have no guilt if I don't gamble. The key to it all is self-awareness and always thinking of everything as mere entertainment. Take control of gambling and you don't have to force yourself to stop.

There must be people who only gambles for fun. They can use gambling as one of the ways to relieve their stress and not expecting something big like doubling or tripling their money so there is no way that they will stop gambling. For those who thinks has a problem with it already, how can they stop it if they won't act?

I think the reason why it's hard is because they are afraid of letting it go but if they will find alternatives and learn to appreciate it, then it it's always possible to quit gambling for good. You are gambling for years so you already have woken up from the truth that you can't make unlimited amounts in gambling but those who are just getting started are the ones who still got screwed with it.

These things could be avoided even on midway on which you should realize that gambling wasnt been created on making yourself rich or make money.Doesnt really need to you to suffer or experience financial problems
first before you could stop but this is the most common scenario on which people do only learnt up on the time that they had been hit up some financial problems which it do made them realize.
Gambling is really should for fun but there are people or most people do really go into a certain extent on which they do end up on being that addicted and resulting
into a disaster before they do literally stop.

Gambling has become part and parcel of some gamblers, they can't stay without gambling in a day. As for me I play once a day or twice highest and I have been trying not removed it from my heart because gambling is from the heart and once you remove ur mind from it you have over come but to remove it from the mind is the issue many are facing till date. But it is a gradual process to stop and you can't just stop it at once. It might take days, weeks, months or even years and if the person is ready to stop.

And most people can't stop it because there is no any other jobs for them to do to feed themselves or their families. So they use gambling to pay their bills so if you tell them to stop gambling then you should be prepared to provide jobs for them or be fully ready to attacked. Because according to a day, hunger man is always an angry man

They have to start thinking about doing something else so they don't think about gambling when they have nothing to do. That way, their thoughts will not only be about gambling but about what they are doing then, which can help them to try to distance themselves from gambling. But this is not easy to do for people who have often played gambling. It needs intention and seriousness to keep their minds off gambling, only with the intention that they can reduce their gambling time and even leave gambling forever.

But the essence, not on the problem of how to stop. because throughout my experience it is very difficult to do. at least, I have processed and gone through various things until I found the answer for myself. Until this moment, I still gamble. whether it's betting on sports, slots, dice, or other types of gambling. however, at least now I'm more mature to react to it. with good understanding, as well as responsibility, we will automatically have self-control. that way, make gambling as fun entertainment without harming other people, especially yourself.

You have tried to avoid gambling addiction even though stopping addiction is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand, but at least you have control over the decisions in each gambling and the first attempt to push can limit the balance used for gambling. I think the main factor in avoiding gambling is having the intention to get out of gambling addiction and wisely deciding not to continue gambling when the loss reaches the gambling balance limit,

commit to a budget plan for gambling, it is one way to control yourself away from gambling slowly. because if the gambler has limited the budget of funds used for gambling, he must really commit to the establishment and if that happens for a few months, I think it will work.
the most important thing is trying to respect the plan and yourself, that is the spirit to stay away from gambling properly and slowly you will definitely be able to really stay away from gambling.

I am one of those people who want to stop gambling but in the end I failed. I may already be addicted to the fun that you get from gambling, especially if you already have the ambition to win at gambling and don't just think about fun. I was almost driven crazy by gambling until I sold the things I owned to play gambling so I thought gambling addiction was more dangerous than drinking liquor and methamphetamine and even I saw my friend who had sold his house certificate to play gambling and for the victory that he seeks in gambling.
I'm still lucky not to do that even though I can't stop gambling but at least the scale of my gambling can be reduced.
The defeat that we get and the ambition to win in gambling will change all the logic that we build at the beginning before gambling.

Budget planning can be an effective strategy for controlling gambling. However, the daily or weekly budget should be very flexible.  So that the budget does not allow too many single bets per day and too much time to be spent on gambling.  Then gambling cannot make us addicted to its deep addiction. And only then it is possible to control yourself in gambling.  If not, we can get stuck in the deep addiction of gambling at any time. And then it will be almost impossible to quit gambling

[|MINER|]

My answer to your topic title question is that I have never felt the need to stop gambling. Because I'm not that much a hardcore gambler, and besides, most of my gambling at the moment is focused on sports, and for that I have to a monthly percentage and  that doesn't affect me to lead a normal life if I lose.
 I think if you can limit profits and keep yourself in control without getting too greedy then you don't have to worry about stopping gambling.

You are kinda right. Once a person starts to gamble his habits start fo change.
The more he plays the more he gets addicted to gambling. This is where many tend to fail to keep themselves within the limit.
If a person sticks to his limits then he wont ever face the problem of gambling addiction and it would be easier for him to control his gambling habits.
