Gamble Responsibly

[Swordsoffreedom]

The problem in the case of limiting the gambling addict's access to gambling is quite difficult.  Such a player himself constantly comes up with an obsessive thought that he needs to play and win back a loss or win and rejoice. 
Not all people who are addicted to gambling are able to overcome themselves and at least temporarily, for example, for a week or two, simply do not turn on the computer at all.  But if such a person turns on the computer, this already means that he will go to a site with a gambling game.  And of course keep playing.  So the difficulty of the situation lies in overcoming this first step.  In my example, this is turning on the computer.

If addictions were already difficult to overcome before the internet became and integral part of our lives now this is even harder thanks to the internet, and this is not only a problem with gambling as now online casinos are everywhere and they follow you no matter where you go if you have a smartphone.

But this is even the case with drugs which can be easily accessed on the black markets or even on social media, and unless a person is completely convinced about trying to leave their life as an addicted person behind, then they will always find a way to go back to their former habits.

A drug addict will always find new excuses to consume drugs. Just like that any addict, it doesn’t matter what he is addicted to, we’ll find a way to get back in his addiction. I generally have seen some people stop their addiction because they were somehow facing some problems because of their addiction. The people who are smart stay away from those things. People who are careful, stops the addiction as soon as it starts harming them. However, those who lack sagacity or struggle to exert control over their own cognitive faculties find themselves perpetually ensnared by their compulsions. It is true for both drugs and gambling. And those people who understand very well that they are harming themselves by doing so, I have zero sympathy for them. If you cannot control what you are doing, it is your fault, learn to take accountability.

Talk about any addiction whether it be drugs, sex or gambling, it is that the person like that activity too much that he can't live without it and this make him addicted to this. People who are addicted have no control over themselves to refrain from those activities and therefore we can them addicted.

Coming to gambling ,the addiction is far more as there is an urge to get more money and this make the addiction even stronger. Anyone who is an alcoholic addict's, only need to drink and smoke etc, but a gambler have greediness in mind which makes it even more dangerous and hard to overcome.

It is not easy to stop something after being am addict because of the long time effect and the urge to do the thing more and more without weighing the effect it could have later. Just like a drug addict you've just mentioned, same can be attributed to a gambler that is an addict and does not have the right tools to help home to quench his thirt for gambling.
Gambling is good but when it is excessive, it is bad and nit good for an healthy gambler that want the best from gambling.
 One of the consequences of gambling too much can be very brutal if the person does not look for a remedy to stop the urge of gambling always.

I think you are absolutely correct in pointing out that such a person will, in the vast majority of cases, not tell anyone about their gambling addiction. 
And this is where the main problem of such players lies.  A person cannot say this because other people will naturally reproach, scold and even insult him and say that he is so weak-willed that he cannot stop playing.  This psychological brake in the behavior of a gambler over time constantly only makes it worse and worse, and painful gambling only gets worse.  For this reason, the sooner he turns to specialists, the easier it will be for him to overcome such addiction to gambling.  And the easier and simpler will be the life of his entire family if the family does not have the problem of constant daily struggle with the gambling addiction of one of the family members. 
I still think that without the help of specialists in these matters, if not impossible, then certainly it is very difficult to cope.

In this case, openness is needed from the gambling addict to make people around him understand that he needs help. And with his family's help, the problem of gambling addiction can be solved properly, and gamblers who are addicted to gambling can also manage their lives freely without thinking about gambling. Seeing a specialist can help a gambling addict overcome his addiction and make a new person who has successfully quit gambling. And when he is successful, he can share his story of getting out of gambling with people who are also addicted to gambling so that this can make their spirits rise and have the desire to get well too.

I have seen many experienced gamblers who are always engrossed in gambling. As with gambling, people naturally enjoy it the most and must be counseled before they become addicted to it. Because a person addicted to gambling always brings something bad because the gambler always wants to get something extra from being engrossed in gambling. So such greed and lust is inside everyone but people have to keep control and be engrossed in gambling then it is possible to win in almost all gambling. And a fully addicted person must be weaned out of gambling or else will continue to face losses all the time.

The problem in the case of limiting the gambling addict's access to gambling is quite difficult.  Such a player himself constantly comes up with an obsessive thought that he needs to play and win back a loss or win and rejoice. 
Not all people who are addicted to gambling are able to overcome themselves and at least temporarily, for example, for a week or two, simply do not turn on the computer at all.  But if such a person turns on the computer, this already means that he will go to a site with a gambling game.  And of course keep playing.  So the difficulty of the situation lies in overcoming this first step.  In my example, this is turning on the computer.

The issue of gambling addicts is large, it's positive to some and negative to others, it's the second set that is feeling the brunt and needs help. I will never support anything that is affecting anyone negatively and the person still doing it, people should always observe themselves and try to shun or reduce anything that seems to retard them. In gambling, desperation is the main cause of addiction, they would want to win by all means, and the more they lose, the more they either believe that there is hope to win or are emotional to try to recover back their losses.

Either way, when you know that you are betting and increasing risk and still losing, you might want to take a break. And if you know you can't control this, you should share it with people or get extra help as you might have been so addicted to the extent that you'd crossed the red line.

I also think that people with this type of problem have to seek help quickly, 'because although it sounds like a minor problem, when people have an addiction they tend to do things that harm themselves and in turn can harm to others with their behaviors and their ways of acting, for that reason is that when I play I always control what I spend, I don't spend more than I want because if it doesn't my things get out of balance, and I live in a place where The rent and the services cannot fail , if I start playing uncontrollably I would lose that money and that is worse , people should always think about their obligations before Putting so much money.

You made a very good point in your opinion. When someone is addicted to smoking or alcoholism, their weak point is the smoke or the alcohol they take. When someone is addicted to drug and if there is no drug, the addiction can be cured.
But someone being addicted to gambling is chasing money and we know that money is a very big necessity in our daily endeavours, and the testing of money will lead to greed even when you make the money, you will always want more of the money that is why gambling addiction is different and dangerous than the other ones mentioned above.

If addictions were already difficult to overcome before the internet became and integral part of our lives now this is even harder thanks to the internet, and this is not only a problem with gambling as now online casinos are everywhere and they follow you no matter where you go if you have a smartphone.

But this is even the case with drugs which can be easily accessed on the black markets or even on social media, and unless a person is completely convinced about trying to leave their life as an addicted person behind, then they will always find a way to go back to their former habits.

Well, we all know that things when it comes to casinos, we will always have access, from the internet, from our phone's browser, there will always be ways for us to look for them and find them ready for us, however when we have enough willpower Things can happen as we want and at the pace we want, it is no longer so much over the internet or through a casino app, we can also run into a casino on the street and there are easily dice games, roulette wheels, slot machines, which can make us access without having to be in an online medium, it all depends on what we have as a priority.

In any of the cases where we interact in a casino and have an addiction problem, it is obvious that we will never be able to stop overnight, we have to do it little by little, everything is in the quality of the things that we want, it is In other words, the things that we may want to overcome depends on ourselves, but since any person, friends or relatives have access to the casinos, to sports betting, it is well known that the player can make any bet, the important thing is that It can be controlled so that you do not lose all your money , and more so when the money that is there is committed to basic things, this is what every player must commit to.

In the case that the player has a family , children , and has to take home the livelihood, I believe that the problem of addiction should disappear immediately , because how can you explain to the children that because of playing in a casino a game he has lost the money that is for them to eat, how do they look at that, or his wife who spent the money for her expenses irresponsibly in a casino , that is minimal for an endless fight and with good reason, where You will never be able to win it for anything in the world, so when things are like tha t, the degree of Responsibility of the person must be taken into Consideration.

All this applies to a very large extent to fairly young people and, of course, to adolescents.  In this case, there really should be some control on the part of parents or older brothers.  Because of course such a young person may become addicted to gambling and may even begin to experience an irresistible desire to gamble more and more.  So what you said is important for young people. 

If we talk about a person who is a middle-aged or even older gambler, then I think that such methods of control and assistance will most likely not help a person effectively get rid of gambling addiction.  Of course, this is very difficult for family members and for the player himself, but I think that the help of specialists is still required here, that is, those people who know well how all family members and the player himself should behave in order to recover from such a gambling addiction.

Young people with big curiosity will make them learn about things they want to know, including about gambling, by trying to start gambling. At first, maybe they only gambled with a small amount of money, but because of the influence of their friends who had a lot of money, they finally followed the invitation and in the end, they sank into gambling. That is why the role of parents and other siblings is needed to look after each other and supervise so that if there are deviations from family members, they can immediately help them.

And yes, specialist assistance is certainly needed when the family feels unable to help people who are addicted to gambling but still, the role of the family is needed here to accompany the gambling addict to recover from his gambling addiction. Otherwise, it is difficult for a gambling addict to recover because he feels alone fighting his gambling addiction. But as long as that person can play gambling responsibly in that they can stop themselves at any time and are not affected by anything when they stop, they can still gamble within limits.

People who are addicted have no control over themselves to refrain from those activities and therefore we can them addicted.

I think its a misconception on your part to assume that addicts cant live without whatever they are addicted to, it is more proper to say that they cant feel relaxed when ever they are yet to satisfy their addiction, if it was possible for addicts not to live without what ever they are addicted in, we did find many of them drop dead immediately the urge of their addiction comes and they do not satisfy it immediately, its just like a normal human being cant do without breathing, and once they seize to breath and there is no immediate remedy around, be sure that such person will die in a couple of minutes .
So addictions, whether it be gambling or sex or alcohol, drugs or smoking, all causes nothing but stress, when the urge comes and its not satisfied, it doesn't cause anyone to drop dead, else, we will not see people who testify of coming out from addiction successfully.

Coming to gambling ,the addiction is far more as there is an urge to get more money and this make the addiction even stronger. Anyone who is an alcoholic addict's, only need to drink and smoke etc, but a gambler have greediness in mind which makes it even more dangerous and hard to overcome.

Sorry but i will have to disagree with you again, the worst addiction is that one which damages the  victim health, Brain and general ability to live long and also live in good health, smoking, drugs, alcohol, sex all does that, a gambling addict can still live to the fullest of his life cycle if he or she knows how well to manage his or her addiction, but for those who are addicted to drugs, alcohol, women and smoking, there is no two ways to manage and keep such addiction from negatively affecting the victims health .

The issue of gambling addicts is large, it's positive to some and negative to others, it's the second set that is feeling the brunt and needs help. I will never support anything that is affecting anyone negatively and the person still doing it, people should always observe themselves and try to shun or reduce anything that seems to retard them. In gambling, desperation is the main cause of addiction, they would want to win by all means, and the more they lose, the more they either believe that there is hope to win or are emotional to try to recover back their losses.

Addiction, be it gambling or any other, can't give positive results. If by "positive results" you mean winning some money, then it's even worse. A gambling addict winning a big amount only becomes more addicted to gambling. It's horrible. No money will help you to live happily then. Well, if the money were spent on expensive therapy, it could help. But other than that it's a tragedy.

Money is nothing more than fuel for an addiction, it is because of this that among celebrities the number of deaths related to drugs is so high, as a regular person would have reached rock bottom a long time ago but celebrities are so rich they can get away with all kind of negative behaviors.

So by the time they try to do something about their addiction it is simply too late and they end up paying the highest price, so in a way the lack of money of the average person gives them a slight protection and it forces them to realize their addiction problems earlier.

I agree with you and all forms of addiction, be it gambling or anything else, can never have a positive impact so there will only be bad or negative impacts that can be caused by each individual.
Winning at gambling is the beginning of ruin, especially for those who are not yet a gambling addict, so they can gradually wait until it is time for them to become addicted.
Of the many gambling addicts, I have never seen the positive side, even in terms of finance and psychology, they are different from normal people because financially they will definitely experience bankruptcy and regarding the psychology of an addict usually causes emotional feelings and difficult to give the right advice or instructions.
So great is the impact of gambling addiction, but there are still many people who are not aware of and don't care about things like that because they already have thoughts that are not normal anymore.
After all, how much money the gambling addict earns from winning will eventually run out with nothing left as the money returns to an impossible-to-beat house edge.

It will be more difficult to cure a gambling addict than to cure a drug addict because for drug addicts it is clear that there is rehabilitation and a separate method that has proven to be effective in healing them.

Can someone add additional activities to reduce their addiction or gambling habits, maybe it will be useful and help addicts reduce their addiction to gambling, maybe it's the right thing to do, and come back to those who do it have the desire to get rid of it addicted or not, if he doesn't have the determination inside it is also very difficult to get rid of his gambling habit, even though we advise him they will ignore our words, so in my opinion it is better to advise people who want to be advised by others, then it will be useful for him we alone..

Yes, it works, even experts affirm this as adding activities would take your mind off the addiction as you might have little or no time for it in the day. But one thing you will need to ascertain is the productivity of that added activities, if they are not productive, you might be quick to disengage them. More spare time adds to the reason why people are addicted to gambling, generally to online activities, but with productive engagement, that will reduce, while some will not even know the time they will forget it. And of course, if they are willing, it helps better.

I think that among the activities that can effectively distract gamblers who are already on the verge of gambling addiction, first of all, it is worth noting some kind of educational programs or even small refresher courses in some completely different field of human activity.  For example, some classes in the study of nature or animals.  All these programs are best done in such a way that there is less access to the computer, only the most necessary to know.  In the ideal case, this could be some kind of outdoor activity in nature or in the pool.  And so on. 

But such simple methods of distraction from gambling work only when the player has not yet completely turned into a gambling addict.

If a person is too much free and he has not much responsibility on his shoulder, only then he has extra  time and he spend most of his time in activities like gambling. Also, when there is no responsibility on anyone, he must be one having good amount of money which he spends upon gambling.

One needs to first know his interest, priorities and then try to engage themselves in activities other than gambling. This can only be done if one is willing to get rid of gambling addiction and docs to gamble responsibly.

I think this is one of the solutions that they can do in terms of avoiding or reducing the level of addiction in it, but can they put aside their selfish feelings? I think maybe this is quite difficult for those who are used to gambling and they have to force themselves a little to add some other activities to save them from some big losses for the umpteenth time. And I've also said this before, it's necessary to add some other activities in our daily lives so that our brains and minds are a little distracted. If you get used to some of these new habits and you feel that they are very enjoyable, well if you are already in this position then I think it is very likely that you will be able to get out of gambling addiction.
But it's true as you said, everything comes back to each person, if you really want to stop then you will do anything including various ways that allow you to get out of gambling.

It will be more difficult to cure a gambling addict than to cure a drug addict because for drug addicts it is clear that there is rehabilitation and a separate method that has proven to be effective in healing them.

Yes, that's right because gambling addicts are not like drug addicts where they usually will not be able to recover even with professional encouragement or rehab, if it doesn't come from himself having the desire to stop gambling will be difficult even getting encouragement from family and friends will be very difficult because I have friends like that is very difficult to cure because his behavior and habit of gambling knows no time.

There are those who really recover and there are also those who reduce their gambling habits by changing their healthy mindset, as long as there is an intention within themselves to stop it can definitely be done and it is not difficult, just a little correction from your statement that drug addicts who leave rehab can recover, even though the fact is There are still those who can become addicted to drugs again after leaving rehab, so they cannot fully recover completely if they are not accompanied by intention within themselves.

I think this is one of the solutions that they can do in terms of avoiding or reducing the level of addiction in it, but can they put aside their selfish feelings? I think maybe this is quite difficult for those who are used to gambling and they have to force themselves a little to add some other activities to save them from some big losses for the umpteenth time. And I've also said this before, it's necessary to add some other activities in our daily lives so that our brains and minds are a little distracted. If you get used to some of these new habits and you feel that they are very enjoyable, well if you are already in this position then I think it is very likely that you will be able to get out of gambling addiction.
But it's true as you said, everything comes back to each person, if you really want to stop then you will do anything including various ways that allow you to get out of gambling.

because we are here discussing being a responsible gambler, so keeping yourself productive is the best solution to avoid the possibility of becoming a gambling addict, when you have other activities, your focus will be divided into several parts so that when you forget the time while gambling, automatically that activity will become your shield.  doing work-outs, hobbies or doing work is the best way to fill your busy life amidst the influence of gambling, and don't forget to continue to hone your money management skills in gambling, no one passes above that.

Yup, having that balance will divert your attentions and will help you not to really get into a deep engagement with gambling, unlike if you don't have any other activities your mindset is all focused on what you need to do or what strategy you should have to win from each gambling session that you participate with.

Being responsible means that you can control both your time and money, with that capabilities you can enjoy but yet lessen the chance of losing a lot.

Not only just limited to gambling but also in other things as well on which you could really make out that good assessment and able to identify out on whats good and whats bad and this is why

its always been that ideal that you should really know on how to deal up with gambling in the first place. You wont really be putting up yourself on much trouble specially on finances if you do have that kind of control on which from spending until into that engagement which needs out to be limited. If you are that someone who could really be able to distinguish between good and bad in terms of gambling then you are unlikely on getting addicted on which its a must thing to have. Most people do fail on following out even with their common sense on how things
should be dealt of with. If you dont find yourself that responsible then you are really that susceptible into lots of errors on which it would really be resulting into that disaster in terms of finances.
