I am only trying to stay safe by gambling less

Self-control is like the brakes on a car, it is not precisely the most appreciated feature on a car but without it there will not be anyway for cars to be as widely used as they are, self-control will allow someone to navigate even the most difficult circumstances and still do well enough, and without a doubt when it comes to gambling we need to use our self-control, otherwise we could find ourselves losing money we could not afford to lose.

Yes, without brakes, the car simply cannot be used, otherwise you will not be able to stop it, this will lead to uncontrollable consequences, to a situation that you cannot control in any way. The same goes for gambling and everything where you have to deal with money, if you allow a situation that you cannot control, then the result will no longer depend on you, and in this case there will be very little chance of winning.

Trying to get back the lost money is only a camouflage to continue gambling, even though the goal of those who are too addicted is to fulfill their gambling desires. they believe that they will win and hit the big Jackpot, but in reality they spend too much money. what was originally a means of fun instead became a place to throw all the money.

This means that the goal of gambling has changed to wanting to satisfy the desire to gamble and is no longer chasing victory. But even so, they should be able to think that what they are doing has a big risk of losing more money where they can become addicted to gambling and when that happens, they can lose more money. They may also find it difficult to get the big jackpot because it depends on their gambling luck. So it's better always to control yourself, always control the use of money, and stop immediately before you lose more money.

I can say self control is all about discipline, it is the safety lever that will keep us from drowning to gambling.  It is not only about bankroll management but also time management,  It is also the break when we seems to be hook to gambling.  In short self-control is the one that will save us from gambling addiction since all our gambling activities and expenses will be moderated.

I also agree that without self control is dangerous because gambling is very addictive and if we lost our self-control, it can be the start of our life ruin.  Gambling in moderation is not bad, it was proven to be beneficial to a person but getting addicted to it is another dangerous story.

Self-control is like the brakes on a car, it is not precisely the most appreciated feature on a car but without it there will not be anyway for cars to be as widely used as they are, self-control will allow someone to navigate even the most difficult circumstances and still do well enough, and without a doubt when it comes to gambling we need to use our self-control, otherwise we could find ourselves losing money we could not afford to lose.

If in a car or vehicle the control is like a brake, then when there is an obstacle it can still be fixed, but if the control or self-control of a gambler has been lost, it is difficult to have it again because this is the influence of the gambler's own desires so that control or self-control just disappears .
The thought of a gambler who no longer has self-control can make that gambler experience the worst phase of his life because like a car that has no brakes, he cannot stop when he is in danger or addicted to gambling.

The fact is that no matter how one's point of view is, most of them will never be able to get out of their curiosity. Gambling is very much tied to one's personality, the target of the casino system is someone who does not have a strong mentality that they will be very easy to influence psychologically. It will be very difficult for them to be able to stop completely in gambling, but to reduce it is certainly possible. It is difficult for them to get out of that zone because the lure of victory will always haunt their minds, including mine, and to be honest I am one of them. If you know the best solution to this problem, the point is to get out of the curious zone about a gambling win, please tell me now.

The theory of 'loss aversion', which states that people feel the pain of losing more intensely than the pleasure of an equivalent gain, appears to be at play here. Gamblers often fall prey to this cognitive bias and continue gambling in an attempt to recover their losses, thereby spiraling into an addiction.

We could argue that the real problem is not gambling per se, but rather, a lack of responsible gambling. The industry itself, regulators, and individuals all have a role to play in promoting responsible gambling practices, such as setting limits on spending and time, self-exclusion programs, and promoting awareness about the risks of gambling addiction.

Your advice to control oneself and stop before losing more money is indeed sage. We could even argue that recognizing when to stop is the real "jackpot", isn't it?

They won't be able to think straight anymore when their minds are poisoned with gambling profits that they haven't even earned yet. Losing more money they don't feel and they will realize when their money is completely gone. The big jackpot is just wishful thinking and will never be achieved. Self-control and money control can be done at the beginning when they are not too addicted, so awareness is needed from an early age so that they are not trapped in a difficult situation.

Getting out of the gambling zone is indeed very difficult, the key is in the mindset, maybe by changing the mindset that playing gambling cannot make us rich, so we will play according to our goals so that it can easily control ourselves in gambling, I think I am also the same Like you but I am different from most people gambling, I only gamble to fill the emptiness on weekends spend a little small money to gambling betting to have fun not to double money.

But even if I am lucky to get a win, I will usually save the Ministry of Manning in my casino account or withdraw it, but most of me play often run out of small money every time I gamble on weekends, but at least I get satisfaction in the game, there is no solution to stop Gambling but you can change your own mindset.

Yes because what's on their mind will be I need to win more and earn more no matter what, so when they experience losing they will do another set of bets and they deposit even more so they can think that they will get what they are already losing. We should manage and control our assets and especially our emotions so that it would not be a problem even though we are not stop playing gambling.

That is what we called chasing more losses, not winnings. The more we become desperate of getting back our losses, the more we lose control of ourselves and that makes the casino loves us and take our money more. Too late to realize that we got hooked up into such conviction. This will imply how important for us gamblers to set limitations and know how to control our emotions as this will save us from addiction and from losing more.

planning a gambling budget with a small amount that can afford to lose and gambling responsibly, that's the best way for me to be able to control your gambling sessions.
maybe everyone has a different way, but the goal remains the same, namely to control yourself not to gamble too often.
If gamblers can do this method, I'm sure it will be very easy to stay away from addiction and stay safe.

And most of the time it happens, if not all but the majorities of gamblers suffered with this same emotions.

The more you seek and try to recover your losses the more you got aggressive and unable to control yourself in putting
more money in your bankroll, each time you empty your capital you force yourself to deposit more till you realize
that there's nothing anymore in your savings. Regrets and nothing else that follows..

Your advice to control oneself and stop before losing more money is indeed sage. We could even argue that recognizing when to stop is the real "jackpot", isn't it?

If you succeed in getting the jackpot, we have to stop and not expect another jackpot because it won't be possible or it's unlikely. And if some people continue playing instead because they hope for another jackpot, they have wasted what they got. That's where he can become addicted to gambling, even though it's not too bad, but if he continues like that, after a long time, he will become addicted to gambling without knowing it. Gamblers have a problem because they don't have responsibility when playing gambling, so they can't stop when their money is low, and they've been doing this for a long time. So the only thing he could do was try to control himself and stop gambling.

They won't be able to think straight anymore when their minds are poisoned with gambling profits that they haven't even earned yet.

Indeed. Especially when whispers poison their minds to continue playing gambling to get the win. They will regret it after it's all over. They will see that the money is gone and cannot be recovered, so they must leave the casino regretfully. They really have to reduce their gambling activities before they become addicted to gambling and to reduce the loss of money, and that can be done by learning to control themselves in gambling.

We have the same way of gambling, so I think that can help us continue to enjoy gambling and know when to stop. Whatever the outcome at the end of the game will not make us continue playing gambling because we know that our limits are visible, and we need to stop before it's too late. Also, we do this because we've had previous unpleasant experiences that we really want to get rid of by imposing responsibility on ourselves. Hopefully, we can stay like this while gambling so we won't experience gambling addiction.

You can't get luck every day, buddy.
Maybe today the day after tomorrow they can be lucky to get a win and feel that gambling can provide wealth or can be a source of income but keep in mind that after a few of these wins he will get a loss which will even eliminate bigger money than what he got while gambling.
I can talk like this not just bragging but because it is true from my own personal experience and that of several friends who also like to gamble.
After all, the money that is generated from gambling will not feel like it can just disappear, whether for fun or other things, but what is clear is that spending money from gambling wins will be easier compared to money earned by working or doing business.

Its true gambling destroys wealth, you will have nothing else to do with your money when you get addicted and the worst thing is that instead of gambling to earn money we gamble so we can be able to gamble again. Like you place a bet and win then you still stake your winnings on another bet which you may end up loosing so what’s the purpose of the bet? People need to put more caution on how they gamble they need to gamble responsibly. No matter how good you are in gambling you will not always win, there will be days you will loose and when you don’t gamble responsibly you will easily loose your bet.

[Silberman]

Self-control is like the brakes on a car, it is not precisely the most appreciated feature on a car but without it there will not be anyway for cars to be as widely used as they are, self-control will allow someone to navigate even the most difficult circumstances and still do well enough, and without a doubt when it comes to gambling we need to use our self-control, otherwise we could find ourselves losing money we could not afford to lose.

Yes, without brakes, the car simply cannot be used, otherwise you will not be able to stop it, this will lead to uncontrollable consequences, to a situation that you cannot control in any way. The same goes for gambling and everything where you have to deal with money, if you allow a situation that you cannot control, then the result will no longer depend on you, and in this case there will be very little chance of winning.

Which is why it is way better to prevent ourselves from ever reaching that point, after all it is way easier to prevent a problem from happening at all than it is to try to solve it once it has become enormous, however this is something that hardly enters the mind of some gamblers and as such they ignore all the warning signs, and they only recognize that they are in deep trouble once there is no way for them to avoid it and they have no other option but to try to solve their problems.

I do feel somehow when I read that it's not easy to quit gambling or take a break from it, I see such a remark as a weakness which everyone should not tolerate. Gambling is a choice and quitting it is a choice as well, but if you are finding it difficult to quit gambling then you should know that something is wrong with you, which is more reason why you should do the needful. Till today, I've quitted gambling many times and returned at will, and what is helping me mainly has been said by you, no one should think of gambling as a means to get rich. It goes a long way in helping the challenged ones.

I gamble for fun and I am happy whenever I make money, this is the right mindset, anything otherwise could make the life of a gambler to be miserable.

[nullama]

Even if you gamble less, you are going to be spending all the money, the only way to not lose is to never play

That is a good thing because you understand your purpose for gambling. You could think of gambling as entertainment, not a means to get rich. We should seek wealth in other ways than from gambling because we may find it difficult to get it as gamblers. But that doesn't stop people from immediately stopping gambling because they find it challenging to win the game and earn the winning money.

If people could gamble for the fun of it, I think it would reduce gambling addiction because people don't chase winnings. But if they win, they can stop immediately and withdraw the winnings.

[LUCKMCFLY]

First of all you have done a good job by refusing them. I don't know why they are saying these two waysa s same. Because trading and gambling are two separate paths. In gambling you have the 99% chance of loosing money. But here in trading you can hodl the Bitcoin and can get profit. In trading you can hold a trade but in gambling you can never hold a bet. So these two things are totally different.

Apart from holding, someone who has knowledge and experience about the market and how cryptocurrencies work, and how their prices move as can be determined by reading the charts and doing technical and fundamental analysis, can earn profits by trading cryptocurrencies on a daily basis if you have a good enough capital in your hands.

So gambling is definitely not the same as trading because, in gambling, every bet gives you only a 50% winning chance or maybe even less since there is also a house edge which gives the house an advantage of a few percent.

I respect each opinion and experience , since many players have their own style to play , I really like the way in which you can bet little and have few profits, because that way you gain experience , you don't get into that despair of doing everything time money and being with that uncertainty, for me that control is Important because when Managing a small budget, it is known that if you win you win and if you lose you do not invent more, and Psychologically things will turn out better, as far as I am concerned Regarding that , this was one of the Techniques by which I learned that in the game you must be very Intelligent.

If you really want to stay safe with gambling-related issues, all you can do is stop gambling. That is the only way that you can be sure that you will not lose anything and that you will not only stay safe, but also your own money. That seems the most sensible to me. Of course there are ways to collect some money with gambling, but keep in mind that you will always have to deal with a nasty defeat and you will have to swallow it and, above all, learn to accept it, to prevent it from becoming 10x worse. will go afterwards. Because that's what almost always happens when you have a bad day or evening session. You have to be able to deal with that.

Exactly.

It's the same as any other addiction, like alcohol for example.

You simply need to stop doing that behavior. But that usually doesn't work by itself, you need to do something else instead that produces some comparable entertainment/fun/etc. Otherwise you'll just go back to it.
