Bitcoin gambling problem

Thanks for having the courage to share it here, Op. Sometimes people who are experiencing compulsive gambling only need advice from the ex-gambler's community which can remind them and help them find ways to control their urge of betting. Having a helpful community that will have concern for other gamblers who are experiencing worse gambling addiction cases will surely save a lot of people. This is a good initiation.

Thank you for sharing this link.

I'll just hand it over to someone who really wants to quit but don't know how to start and can't help themselves. I didn't know that there's stats for those who don't seek help with their gambling addiction.

What I know of is that words just like 'majority' and 'many' but on this stats, 80% yeah sure is a lot of people really don't want to speak about it.

Thanks for sharing this information here, I believe this could be a good resource for some gamblers here who have become addicted to gambling somehow.
Though personally, I've never really believed that online course or therapy have the adequate power required to break and bring people out of what they already formed as a habit, from my own personally experiences, following a course like this can only help the addicted gambler stay away from gambling for a while before they go back to it again.
Best and sure way to heal completely from addiction is to seek physical help, don't just rely on online communities.

It's great that these websites, organizations, and services exist. The problem is, are those actually addicted willing to take these courses, self-help assessments, and watch those videos on how to stop gambling? There are tons of non-profits battling gambling addiction but the problem is trying to persuade gamblers to get help for themselves. If the willingness to stop gambling is already there, a little push and a helping hand like this site helps. A support system is very welcome too, and it's great to hear that this site is built by ex-gamblers who were brave enough to turn back on an activity that has held them hostage for a long period of time.

There should be a pinned thread with all those sites listed. There are many support groups around the world and many numbers you can call to find someone to talk to. This is especially important when you had a big loss and don't know what to do. A loss can work as a wake up call and allow you to make the first step into fighting your addiction.

...from my point of view the best way to deal with a gambling issue is to walk away from it, take out loss and never look back.

I think so too, but it doesn't work that way. Addicts don't stop. They keep chasing that rush. We who aren't addicted don't understand that they have to play and are too weak to do anything about it. It's the same as drugs.

True, although people who run these sites and give tips to the addicts at least make an effort. What would we do if even they stopped caring?

Thank you for sharing it up specially if it was for free, even though we could definitely say that quitting isnt something that could really be simple even on using up these services or really
be having some help from other people or any write ups or whatever advises that they would be able to listen it out.It wont really be always that effective basing up or depending on how severe
the addiction could be.We know that gambling addiction is really that rampant and this what makes gambling industry becomes big because of gamblers mindset that they could really be rich
in a short span of time.Therefore, self realization is one of the most effective thing on which it could really make someone do able to quit up.

Checking the site, it really is a good resource to help gamblers to overcome addiction, I have bookmarked it if ever I or one of my friends need help in overcoming gambling addiction, it's also a must-read for all gamblers even if they are not yet hooked on too much gambling because you will be aware on how to stop gambling and what could be done in case you are turning into one.

Thanks for this update and j know that is going to be a good opportunity for those gamblers that had been addicted to gambling. I think this is a good update for everyone nit just for people that had been addicted to gambling. If we try and  make use of this material especially for those of us that are not addicted to gambling now, it will help a lot to prevent us from being addicted to the urge of excess gambling that could be a detriment to us.

The more to bet, the more we can become open to the urge of gambling too much. If we are winning consistently, we can can generate the urge of gambling more.

OP Thanks for sharing the site. Anyone can need a site. We have no problem with the online gambling category we are betting on. If there is any problem we can solve it ourselves. And we never bet big money. Bet with a small balance. We have no problem losing there. But there are many people who face problem by betting huge amount of money, maybe this site can solve them. But I don't know how good the solution will be. And my question is if I lose here, how will they help me?

[Yatsan]

Problem in gambling revolves around scam platforms and user negligent if I'm not mistaken. There are many gambling platforms which are endning up to be tagged as scam. However, delay of transactions should be discussed to the casino itself in order for them to address it properly. User negligent in gambling I guess, is where this community OP have mentioned, would help. Many gamblers are still not taking precautionary actions whenever they are playing which results to bigger bigger losses and regrets. At the end of the day, it is the player himself who would help oneself to overcome problems such as frustrative betting. The concept of gambling should be more emphasized to all of this industry's community.

They are helping with gambling problems, so I don't think they will help you financially, when you lose with your gambling.
The services they are offered say its free, so hopefully, they won't ask fees later on, and totally free.
This will be a great help for some gamblers here who want to change for the better of themselves.
Quitting is hard for most gamblers, they need to find a very good motivation why they are changing their path of living.

Honestly, I would always take professional help as the best mode of coping in these types of situations. I've seen outreach and support groups fail because all of them are victims of the same type of issue and none were really able to offer them an outside perspective let alone professional help within the circle. Yes it's good that you're not alone with the problem. But merely recognizing that you do have something to be concerned about and realizing millions of people suffer the way you do is just a step towards full recovery, you always need to get professional care and treatment to be able to recover effectively, trust me.

From the looks of it it seems like OP's site includes or at least will open the possibility of including a professional in discussions like these. That is great and something that I will really get behind of.

Free is good and there's no risk for you to deal off with since there's no money getting involved.If there are some addicted gamblers out there who do have huge problems about addiction then this site

or service might help out but of course this isnt something that you could really make yourself that able to solve out your addiction.I agree on what other points on here that self acceptance is the key.
You wont really be needing all of these things if you are really that aware on what you are doing and you do know on how to stop because you are really that wasting too much
money.

This site is also recommended to those who gamble moderately not just too much, gamblers when they have the time and money but do not know the word too much in their vocabulary, they just gamble they still think they have control over what they do even though they are chasing their losses and gamble is what occupies their mind, this is a helpful book and recommended to spend time reading.

^What probably you meant is that we don't have a  problem here because we know how to manage ourselves from gambling addiction, we are fully aware of addiction and we know how to avoid that because we have self-control. Gamble with your limited balance should be the best option because when you don't want to gamble you can easily take a break. Chasing losses is one of the most reasons why people get addicted to gambling, it will trigger there your greediness which seems not good to us.

If we can hold our self-control in gambling then I don't think we need to quit gambling. But op's suggestion will can be a good effective source for those people's who were in badly loose their self control and addicted in gambling.
Although I also do some sports betting for my own entertainment, and I also see many people around me who are badly addicted to gambling that it's becomes a burden on them and their families. And in that case they would need something like that to get rid of it. I am gonna share your suggestion among them.

Are you speaking for the whole community here since you are using the word we when it comes to gambling everyone has a demon of his own to deal with, we have a lot of players who never admit that he has gambling issues but deep inside can be categorized as someone who needs help.
Going back to the site thanks for posting this here, worth bookmarking, I or any of my friends may need this in the future and I can easily refer this site to them, highly recommended to all, new and old gamblers and even for those who just want to start to gamble, so they will know the warning signs and avoid them.

This advice is for people that know that they are having a bad time,are becoming addicted but are not at the level of addiction that nothing looks good to the gambler except gambling and that level is only curable in a rehab center.I think what OP is trying to help here is for some of us who sometime exaggerate and don't think cold headed but just times and we don't degrade to the worse level of addiction.For people at such level that sometime need a good advice like that to do some self assessment tests and check out what is wrong I think this from OP is the perfect resource.

Thanks for this link,  but the problem is, some of the gamblers here are not going to admit that they have a serious gambling problem. Unless someone from his family step up and tell it to their face and take the consequences.

Anyone, we do hope that we can see numbers as well, maybe in the next couple of months if the platform is effective and how many gamblers they have help. And interesting as you know, maybe there could be a couple of gamblers who think this is a good idea and maybe seek help online.

Since compulsive gamblers don't seek for help how do they intend to attract them towards getting the help they offer?.

This offer should be promoted more to the top sites relevant to gambling where people can easily stumble upon it, and emphasize the benefits more that this service is free.
Actually it doesn't have to target only gambling addicts, there are times when normal gamblers can assess changes in their behavior that are close to the signs of addiction and this service may be able to save them earlier.
