Easy or hard to quit?

[TopTort777]

if we established a target amount of winnings at which point we would be willing to stop gambling and be pleased with our winnings.

Actually this is dangerous imho to establish a target and quit after achieving it. It pushes to continue gambling, to load more and more money into casino. I remember when I have turned 25 cents into 9 bucks with something in Crash game. I though that 10 bucks will be a nice amount to stop and quit. Ended with loosing everything But instead I could have stopped with 9 bucks and continue tomorrow. Establishing target is like switching greed meter to maximum. Every one will try to reach round or nice number. And that is a difference between gambling for fun or being addictive.

Can you quit gambling if you make a life changing money and never go back to gambling?

It is difficult to answer this question with certainty, every gambling addict has their own character in gambling. For normal gamblers who can control themselves, they will probably stop for a while from gambling activities after making big money from gambling places. The reality is that there are lots of gamblers around where I live who find it difficult to stop even though they lose very often, while those who win will be even more active in gambling in the hope of continuing to win and win again. The habit can still be controlled, whereas if you become an addict you need to be rehabilitated to get rid of gambling addiction.

Gambling sites have now started to adopt such tactics that a gambler falls into deep addiction very quickly. So now it becomes almost impossible for a gambler to quit gambling after winning a large amount. and gambling has become a habit for many and many are using it as a profession. Gambling is now considered as a legitimate game in the minds of people, which is why it is now very difficult and almost impossible to avoid gambling.

The habit can still be controlled, whereas if you become an addict you need to be rehabilitated to get rid of gambling addiction.

The issue is that many addicts or even former addicts do not have a clear idea of what it entails to overcome their addictions, they think that as soon as they decide that is something they want to do then they will be able to leave it immediately, however overcoming any kind of addiction is a daily struggle and they only need to lose once in order to go back to their old habits, with this in mind it is way easier to prevent ourselves from becoming addicted than to overcome an addiction which has been established already, so at the first sign that things are starting to get out of control then people should stop gambling immediately.

For those who have a gambling addiction, choosing when to stop would be the hardest thing because they are constantly hoping to increase their bankroll. Small-time gamblers' main objectives are to win and make a good profit, therefore if they were to win a prize that would fundamentally alter their lives, they might decide to stop gambling. Gambling addiction will undoubtedly make it difficult for many gamblers to stop because, even if they win a sizable sum of money, they will continue to think they could earn more and will have a stronger drive to bet. It would be preferable, in my opinion, if we established a target amount of winnings at which point we would be willing to stop gambling and be pleased with our winnings. It takes courage and self-discipline for a person to totally quit on gambling and if we know how to set limits right from the beginning, quitting will never be a big challenge for us.

Yes mate Virasisog, you said the right thing about gambling, a gambler, addicted or not addicted you must come bact to gamble another after winning big money or small money from gambling.
If a gambler wins from gambling the gambler will inventualy stick another bet because the gambler has the mind that he might win bigger this time.

I think gambling is a deadly addiction and many people are selling their wealth because of this addiction. Some people are trying to make money by gambling.  I think if someone tries to make money by gambling, they won't last long. Because a gambler can never quit gambling.  Even if he owns a lot of money at one time, he may lose all his money by gambling and become completely destitute.

Yes I agree with you I don't think any person will ever succeed if he wants to earn money through gambling regularly and spend his daily expenses through gambling money. there are many cases where a rich person has lost everything due to gambling addiction and it has become difficult for him to even earn his daily food. so now gambling as a pleasure also becomes a danger signal because once a person starts gambling it becomes very difficult for him to overcome gambling addiction and quit gambling. But gambling sites are now promoting themselves in such a way that it is becoming difficult to look away from gambling

Exactly, and the same as how the doctors always remind us, it's better to prevent than curing your sickness. There's relevance in
the sense that it's better not to engage that much to avoid addiction.

It's your control over yourself that matters. The more you can control, the better chance that you won't be undergo that deep. It's easier
to quit if you are still in control, as you can simply find other alternatives to be busy and not to keep playing back.

They lose everything they have because they gamble to much without even thinking that they already exceed to supposed to be limit they set nor the budget plan they want to gamble.

Sometimes the climax they get while gambling is the one push them on another level then greediness came since they want to hit big and want to take home a lot of money. There's nothing wrong with this thinking but they should at least see if its still healthy for them to chase up winnings since if they are continue losing then there's nothing good will happen to them if they continue to gamble.

Can you quit gambling if you make a life changing money and never go back to gambling?

Quitting gambling is easy when one gambles only for fun, but it becomes difficult when one becomes deeply addicted to gambling. and a gambling addict cannot completely quit gambling even after thousands of attempts. because it takes shape as if it is mixed with his blood. But since it is possible for a man to do anything, if one tries hard from the heart it may be possible quit gambling. but very few people are able to do it.

One simply cannot do it without help if they are already addicted. If leaving addictions were so easy for anyone that wants to leave them, I'm sure that a lot of people in the world would get out of the addictions that they know are curses for them and their families but they are unable to leave them now since they are already too deep in it, so one might only be able to get out of addiction if they get a helping hand that will drag them out of the ocean of addiction.

When it's about gambling if you are addicted to it and have been addicted for a long time, you might realize that it's harmful to your financial health and to your family's future but if you can't stop gambling, you might have someone close to you that you can ask for assistance, and they will find something else to get you engaged with so that you can stop gambling that much and spend your time on something else that doesn't cost you anything or maybe not that much.

That's right, when someone who's got a huge winning and he wants to maintain that. The same routine again by tomorrow that he'll start to gamble, place some bets and put an amount on the bankroll on how much he's willing to spend.

And then, not the same result, losing, losing bets and money and that's the start of it that someone might lose everything that he's gained.

Repeating the same with expectation as the past is a major reason that ends in massive loss. Gambling is kinda fun with certain expense. We should have the ability to bear it. If not we should understand the limits and spend. We don't follow this, because of the hope and the dream of turning small money into big. When it comes to quit gambling, it is simple and easy thing if your mind is ready for it.

Whether your mind is ready for it to quit, the matter is your pocket and it's connected still with your mind. And we know where it is going when we've got something to gamble with and that sticks to our minds that we still have something to use for.

That's right, when someone who's got a huge winning and he wants to maintain that. The same routine again by tomorrow that he'll start to gamble, place some bets and put an amount on the bankroll on how much he's willing to spend.

And then, not the same result, losing, losing bets and money and that's the start of it that someone might lose everything that he's gained.

It happened to me many times though it's not a huge winning. The thought that you can replicate those previous wins can really motivate a gambler to play again. But in reality the chances are slim especially if it's a huge amount. Thus it's really best to already stop once you experience winning huge. Just quit and divert your attention on how to use the winning money to earn a passive income and not thinking to return back playing again.

Nevertheless, self control is the key to refrain ourselves from playing. It might hard but if you are determine to stop since you already win a huge amount, then nothing is impossible. It just depends on how the gambler deal with it.

Our minds play tricks and that's why when we're winning either huge or small. There's this feeling and thought that it's okay to continue because we still have the money.

And the confidence of winning adds to that state of mind because we've just won. There will always be the better days and the worst days and despite that we're all aware of it, we're still pushing for it because we 'might' be lucky.

Common in a sense that you remember that mistake and you are regretting not to quit while you still in the winning side, I think if not all many do experience this kind of "what if I quit moment" the worse part is when you feel that you can easily recover or you can duplicate that momentum just avoid making the same mistake.

Adding more funds to your bankroll and the outcome remains the same, losing it all over again and just repeating the outcome from time to time.

I think gambling is a deadly addiction and many people are selling their wealth because of this addiction. Some people are trying to make money by gambling.  I think if someone tries to make money by gambling, they won't last long. Because a gambler can never quit gambling.  Even if he owns a lot of money at one time, he may lose all his money by gambling and become completely destitute.

Not only gambling addiction is deadly but all types of addiction, addiction to drugs, alcohol or other things that are considered bad and can be deadly. We say gambling is bad it can be addictive but other activities are bad too if done in excess.
In my opinion, it really depends on the maturity of each gambler, although many gamblers find it difficult to stop before their funds run out, many more can stop while their funds are still there or when they are in a winning position, so they will only play again after a break because I believe they are still many gamblers have the right mindset about playing and he only plays according to the limits he sets, not only the amount of money used but also how long he will play so that it stops right when the time or targeted funds have reached it.

You cannot be an addicted gambler and still finds it so easy to quit, all we could do is to begin to introduce a gradual withdrawal process for the addiction till this is finally achieved, though it may not comes as easy as expected but we need to give it all it takes to have a positive outcome from gambling, maturity aspect of it also contribute somewhat to an extent together with how disciplined we are whenever we are gambling.

Can you quit gambling if you make a life changing money and never go back to gambling?

Gambling is so easy to get into while dire hard to quit, it doesn't take a lot of determination to start but it demands a lot of determination and discipline to quit. And more harder to quit when you start making good sum of money out of it. Gamblers feel more entangled to gambling when they make large amount of money from it, with the illusion  that if they could make such life changing sum then it's possible they would make much more.  For my kind of gambler, with an urgency I'll quit.

[tusandii]

With the conclusion that gambling can be stopped or not it depends on whether we can control ourselves completely, both in managing the finances, do not have excessive expectations of something that is uncertain and most important is to control ourselves from greed, so the key when you really want to stop Self in gambling or being able to knock gambling by gambling responsibly is how you can control yourself well.

In my opinion, gambling can be stopped, but it is not easy and requires many steps to really stop gambling because someone who has started gambling will always have the desire to make bets after bets.
If you just limit yourself so that you are not too active in gambling, you can still do it very easily, but stopping is not as easy as limiting it.
There have been many people who have provided feedback on cases like this and all have different responses.

I speak like this because from my own personal experience when I want to quit and also have limits.

In the end it comes back to self-control and of course emotional emphasis.
Many things actually look easy but in the end it is very difficult to do in gambling.
self-control, emotional control and financial management that really have to be enforced clearly will present a challenge that is even difficult to anticipate.
Everyone can gamble, but not everyone can get out of gambling, so in some cases or some countries, gambling is still prohibited because this is indeed more of a problem than the convenience you get.
But even so, it's still ongoing and I'm also still in this because it's like something is missing if there's no gambling.

Yeaa... Gambling has a very big addiction. Even though we know that when we start spending money on gambling, the chances of losing are greater than winning. But we still gamble. Even though we also know that gambling does not make us rich (if anything, very few people), there are many people who lose and go bankrupt from gambling.

It is very difficult to get out of the gambling circle. Do we have to go bankrupt before we can get out of the habit of gambling? i think it is a bad choice

[Dzwaafu11]

Can you quit gambling if you make a life changing money and never go back to gambling?
I asked this because those who made some money through gambling near me always go back to gamble and they end up losing everything they once made through gambling.

As you can see, gambling is something that, even if you're not addicted to it, whenever you win even a small amount of money, you'll be willing to return to the next game and wager more than the money you initially bet by your self, believing you will receive a significant amount of money. Likewise, if you still lose, you will still go back and wager on the following game, believing you will win. In my opinion, gambling can only be simple for someone who is not yet addicted to it to stop

Have you ever won a high amount of money from gambling and managed to not lose them all back to gambling? And to date, you are still gambling?

Even though I'm not addicted to gambling, I have definitely lost more money playing than I have ever won. Despite this, I still gamble to this day, though I'd like to quit at any time. I can stop, but sometimes I just think of it as something I'll do for fun.

If we go bankrupt because of gambling, then we can be sure that we are people who are addicted to gambling and cannot control what we should control. I only gamble with extra money, or money that I really don't use and that is the rest of the money I have spent on the necessities of life, savings, investments and others so that when I lose (and indeed often lose) it doesn't interfere with my existing finances. other. Most gamblers go bankrupt because they can't control it and they even play with what is intended for other needs, so when they lose they will have trouble and in the end make loans to replace money to meet the needs of the money they spent on gambling.

I'm grateful for taking essential discipline steps that have kept me going today, I never thought I would escape the gambling proceeds. I would simply urged addicts to admits to their flaws and finds better way to relieve addiction towards out of their minds. Addiction sucks; it understands a gambler's lifestyle, and they have no idea what's going on with the losses in their life; they even gamble harder when they face losses. We meet challenges; some of us solve them, while others leave them unresolved; and as time passes, the challenges become more tough. Everything has a price, and you must always be prepared to equal the tasks ahead in order to stop gambling.

Sounds like you have very good financial control. I have a friend who spends a lot of money on gambling sites. He almost spent all his money and assets. This friend of mine used to be a young man who was quite successful, had enough savings and some land assets. But now it's all gone, the last time I met him he had no money saved, his land has been sold and now he has a bank loan in $300/month installments

Gambling is very dangerous for people who do not have good financial control. I occasionally gamble, but only for fun. Hopefully I can still control my finances and not become a gambling addict
