Seeing how many people who are problem gamblers today did not have the intention of becoming gamblers who lack self control but somehow they are now gamblers who cannot control themselves, It means that everyone is at the danger of become such if it is not put in check.

How do you keep your gambling habit in check such that becoming addicted and out of control is something that never happens?

 (share your strategy for others to benefit from)

Lack of control in your gambling activities can make one an addict. I am not a daily gambler,I only gamble during the weekends to entertain myself,after the long week stress. I have a time duration which I use when am gambling so that, I don't be distracted with my emotions. I do this with two or three friends,so that we can be able to control ourselves from addiction. Self discipline plays a major role in controlling one's gambling activities. Sometimes, I go to visit my relations because if am with them,I dare not gamble since,I am hiding it from them.

Nearly 80% of gamblers out there are active gamblers and actually use gambling as a place where they can make money.
Gambling like you is what can make gamblers not really lose control of themselves and their money because they only gamble on weekends when they are tired at work every day and only use gambling for fun and entertainment.
The method of gambling that you do by inviting some friends can also avoid big losses because in every game when we gamble there are other people who are always watching and can stop us when we experience defeat. That way we will not lose large amounts of money.
Doing positive things such as visiting relatives or relatives is one of the best activities so that someone does not gamble and can even forget about gambling for a while when they are happy hanging out with relatives or even family.
It seems that what you say can be triturated
example by other gamblers for being able to limit themselves from addiction and lose a lot of money to gambling.

Self discipline is I think one of the early factors that one can look at to avoid being addicted and problem gambler. It's hard to be in such control when you're already there.

As if you're enjoying to gamble and you've been hitting numbers, you'll be having hard time in checking yourself when you're emotionally happy and no one is there to stop you.

And even if someone is there to monitor and guide you, you may just ignore it when you're already emotionally attached to the games you play and you will neglect any advise given to you until you experience the actuality of having no money left and being a problematic gambler.

Different people/gambler have a different appetite in terms of gambling activities, but if you can work on with good discipline, the chance of getting addicted is by far. There's a need for good practice when limiting your time and money to spend, play more for fun and not to engage that much in any types of game you decided to play.

It's on your self-will when taking your step into gambling, it's not easy though not to get that engage when enjoyment is really happening but if you manage to overcome that eagerness to continue and you stay focus with the limitations that you set up.

The chance of getting addicted is lesser and the goal of entertaining without that too much risk will be fulfilled.

After you have a good self control and learn about money management, you can come back to gambling.

I hope it works but once you are in addiction, I don't think so. Because what I see is that gamblers will find a way to gamble despite the situation. At this time when there are several online casinos available, controlling themselves is a very challenging thing. Some people do what you have said but in a few days, they'll turn slowly to gambling again until they forget their intention to change. This will just end when gambling is totally ban but that of course it never happens, it is a growing business perhaps.

The problem is delicate and complex. The real harm is not just in losing money, but in developing a lasting habit, and even addiction to online gambling. Most gamblers expect to win big and don't consider the losses. Those who lose continue to gamble in order to recoup their losses, while those who win continue to play for even bigger wins. Some individuals regularly lose and persistently continue to play, convinced that their lucky break is just around the corner, but that never comes.

Gambling should never be considered a source of income or investment opportunity. All responsible gamblers know that slots, roulette, and poker are nothing more than a way to have fun. If they win, great, but if not, it's no big deal, let's move on. We shouldn't be risking more than we can afford to lose, right? When we gamble in a casino, we should be focused and have a specific budget that won't significantly impact our financial situation. If we feel uncomfortable with losing a large amount of money, we should reduce our gambling budget. Another piece of advice that I think is important for everyone, regardless of which game we play: Limit your gaming time. Some reputable online casinos offer a special feature that allows you to set how much time you want to play, so take advantage of that. Or simply set a timer on your phone or computer to know how long you've been playing. That's how I do it.

It is very easy. I don't dream of getting rich from gambling. I know it is possible if you are lucky but I also know the opposite has a good possibility. (getting poor) Long time ago I learned that if you want to have a near 100% win rate while making money, you need to work. If you work, you get paid. Not always but you have way better chances to get paid than gambling.

So I think... if gambling isn't going to benefit me in the long run... why would I participate? Here I solved everybody's gambling problems.

First off, set up a specific limitation and boundary for yourself. Be obliged to follow the rules and limit you have set so you won't go overboard. Practicing self discipline will be a tedious task, but eventually you'll get used to it and you'll just find yourself doing it over and over without exerting much effort on your end.

Set up budget allocation for your gambling expenditures. Just make a specific amount that you can afford to lose or just your spare money. Never spend money your money that is intended for other purposes in gambling because winning isn't guaranteed after all.

Take a break every after betting. Whether win or loss, take a pause and assess yourself if you are still in the right mental headspace or not to bet again or play again. Do not chase winnings after winnings and after losses as well. Chasing more wins because of desperation could cost you so much you can regret later on.

Visualization before starting to play you can visualize that you are enjoying and winning and you log out with no issue whatsoever that you are depressed because of your losses.
Another one is to stick to your budget, whatever happens, don't mind the length of time that you're playing, sometimes its a trap, you feel that you still not had enough and you feel that you need to deposit more, so whatever happens stick to your budget and forget the length of time of your session.

Self discipline is one major way l used to control my gambling habits. My gambling habit had no control initially but when I saw the damage it did to a friend, I had no other option than to put it. As a  student, I heard of another student who gambled with no restriction, no discipline, with no caution. He  chased his looses. He would gamble with his school fees and lost i went. He also gambled with his house rent. He also lost.
This person would later take out a loan to gamble and end up getting kicked out of his apartment. This story shook me to my bones and I decided that I was going to gamble responsibly. I didn't want to ever end up like that person. Another way i controlled my gambling habit was avoiding a gambling conversation with gambling addicts because I may be influenced by their stories.

Always try to take care of yourself and control yourself when playing gambling and don't spend too much money because that can be one of the reasons you become addicted. Using more money and experiencing consecutive losses will trigger you to try to play one more round and another, which will only give you one more defeat. But if you manage to win, you will think about recovering your losses but it turns out that everything doesn't work and you still suffer losses. If you want to control your gambling habits, never deposit an amount you can't afford. After playing for a while, you should be able to stop and leave the casino without looking back because that will only make you want to continue gambling again. This needs to be tried until you can control yourself and prevent gambling addiction.

Controlling yourself requires some techniques which not everyone can do and because of which one gets out of control and falls into a serious addiction to gambling. People ignore a thing only when they get something better from it. So a gambler may quit gambling when he enjoys something else more than gambling and becomes more addicted to it. Otherwise a gambler cannot quit gambling very easily

Controlling yourself to not do the things you are not supposed to do is not an overnight process. You have to build it over time. It's not something you can easily incorporate consistently. This is because doing it impulsively can just lead to relapse. Professional intervention is needed in order for someone suffering from severe addiction in gambling to fully recover and not go into a repeated cycle of healing and returning to being addict.

Diversion can help someone to lessen the interaction and amount spent in gambling to somehow forget. But it's still better to consult for guidance and have medical help.

Just set up your limit, and commit on that.
This is not easy, there’s a lot of attractive offers or winnings that might ruin your strategy or plan in gambling but remember to stay focus on your goal and just have fun. Gambling can be very tricky sometimes, its ok to have loss as long as you gamble within your limit and using your money. You need to stay in control as much as possible, don’t get too emotional in gambling.

Controlling yourself is not as easy as you teach the system to control. I have been trying to wean myself off gambling for a long time but have not been successful. I experienced a $300 bitcoin loss from gambling a few months ago with Sportbet. Since then I have been trying hard to control myself from gambling but I was able to control it very well for the first two weeks but last week I got involved in gambling again with a profit of 200 dollars in this match Manchester City vs RB Leipzig.

Play on only fun mode. No you cannot win big or anything playing that was, but you cannot lose either. You get the thrill of the win without the heartache of a big loss either. We would all love to be billionaires and enjoy playing for big bucks but it's just not reality for most.

Its name says it all so yes nothing to expect here but I think if you went into a hardcore gambling, you will find playing in fun mode pointless even if you use bigger amounts of play money and burned that all it hunting huge multipliers.

This will only look like a task to you rather than being thrilled. Gambling doesn't have to be played with a big amount and it is still possible to win huge as long as you will come up with a strategy. That is you will stop for a while after winning and try again later or the next day so that the house edge won't work in the favor of the casino. To become a billionaire is only kinda impossible though so one should not dream about it through gambling.

I don't know your experience in gambling, but mine is quite extensive. I have won super large amounts of money and lost super large amounts as well. Once you win big, you will not be happy with mediocre wins. Gambling small is just boring. So, why put your money at risk? Your happiness? Your sanity? Just play on play money and look at it as having fun wasting time IMO.

I think it's in situations like this that being a systematic and methodical person helps a lot, so you won't feel tempted to break your own initial set of rules to continue gambling after your budget for the week is gone, besides not feeling tempted by offers and promotions displayed everywhere on the internet, since what really matters for a person like that is to be committed with the original plan scheduled before.

Tried using this one before and I can say that making yourself busy are more effective, you tend to focus on something else instead of wasting your time in gambling and wasting your money. Its also good if you only have limited budget for gambling, don’t force yourself to gamble if you can’t afford it anymore. Have your limitations, follow your strategy or whatever plans that can limit your exposure in gambling.

The recommendation is to spend "$100" on a specialist and let him determine if you can control it or not.

Never, but it is that I would never evaluate myself based on the experience of third parties, it is useless.

If you don't have control today, you will never have it, it's that simple, don't think about the matter so much, you have to preach the use of specialists-/-consultation in the field Gambling, they are the people who can really help you.
