Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk.

[bitterguy28]

Easy maybe for those who are doing it just pure for fun and killing some time, but difficult/tough for those who already engage and believing that they can change a lifestyle if luck will back them up and win decently.

For those doing it for fun or entertainment they mightn't find it easy to quit as well because when they get addicted they will have similar behavior like those playing for money. They won't want to quit even when they're not making profits. Addiction is very hard behavior to quit.

The only time a gambler can quit gambling is when he isn't addicted, it doesn't matter if he's playing for the money or for entertainment, provided he isn't addicted, he can stop gambling at anytime. There are some things anybody wanting to quit gambling needs to know.

Whether it is for fun or to make money, someone who gambles regularly has the potential to become addicted. But those who think of gambling as fun have little interest in money or no adverse reaction to losing money. I agree with you that if someone is addicted to gambling at any stage then it is not easy to give up gambling. A gambler is not an addicted gambler if he gambles and is able to take a break from gambling at any time. I also think it is a very effective method to pick out an addicted gambler.

actually that term alone "Gambling Regularly" is already a sign of addiction because there is no such thing as to gamble regularly
if there is  no addiction added to our life so it is not a sign instead that is already an addiction.

so most of those who has this behavior is not really having fun actually instead they are playing to win more money.
also giving up something that we are addicted is a task that only few got to win till they die.
i managed to meet a friend in the past that ended losing everything in life , just because they choose
to maintain their addiction instead of loving and caring His family.
I hate this to be what people made their life but you know? every stage of gambling
is where people made mistakes continuously .

You have a good point as if it's already turn into addiction so it's no longer just for fun or entertainment but most with a desire to continue playing and control is no longer from that person itself, and it's very possible as you said, when you already engage and you are unable to control yourself then it will be too difficult to quit.

Yes I have seen people that started gambling just for fun and entertainment but as time went by they became addicted that they can't stop gambling even when they're not making money from gambling. They just do it to fulfill a desire in their life because of how sorrowful it is.

Some gamblers gamble because it make them escape reality. The fact is that people are passing through alot in life that if they decide to tell you, you won't blame them for the decision they're making. Bars get filled always it's because people are use drinking to ease their pains.

People use gambling as a solution to their pains, when they win that's the only happiness they get in life and always want to play more so they win and get more happiness then it becomes a habit and they keep playing which ends them getting addicted and hard to quit.

Gambling is supposed to be our source of fun and entertainment as that's what it was created for but there are people who made it a hobby where they are already doing it excessively and without limitations. If we are doing it beyond normal or if we are already being controlled by our urges then we might be falling for gambling addiction which makes us hard to quit or stop.
It will never be hard to quit if we're wise enough to handle gambling and we're disciplined to control ourselves. It's fne to rely on it if we seek fun and entertainment but we shouldn't go beyond our limits.

All vices are harmful, you could compare gambling with smoking, with alcohol, with whatever, but as long as you know that things are not good when they are done in excess, because when we look at vices, they are all harmful, but no vice is like that of drugs, it is the worst because it destroys the person, and anything else that one can be addicted to, I have seen that in the threads they talk about addiction to games and it can be something counterproductive when compared to other things, such as smoking, drinking alcohol, because everything leads to the same thing, they do not know how to control it and that is the only way to get addicted, that is why you must always have control of everything so that we do not harm ourselves.

[summonerrk]

Unfortunately, addiction is difficult to diagnose by yourself, but it's easy from the aside (friends). But there is one sure way - you need to do something else. Just as exciting and interesting. And see how much it will pull to play. Unfortunately, gambling is very accessible now because of the phones, one has only to make a couple of clicks and now the bet is made, and the excitement is back again.
Now that I've watched a lot of videos with gambling addicts (I advise everyone to watch such videos periodically), I understand how scary and hard it is. And it's almost impossible to get out of this alone.
It is good that we have such a conscious and responsible society at the forum, which will always help with advice.

 Yes you're right and also most people who where able to discover their addiction for gambling, find it difficult to quit, due to several factors and like you said the internet and technology also have made it very easy for people to get addicted to gambling because there where times when distance, weather, and other factors do hinder people from going to the casino daily, but currently  gamblers doesn't need to worry about going to the casino because they could do it from the comfort of their homes all they just need is a good device and an internet connection which is becoming very easy to access even in the rural areas.
 It's very important to try as much as possible to resist the addiction of gambling because apart from losing money it has other negative and harmful effect like depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, mental disorder due to much thinking therefore if you have a friend or relative that you notice is finding it difficult for a day to pass by without staking a bet it is your responsibility to put them in order and advise them of the consequences of addictive gambling because once they become additicted most times it seems difficult to quit.

When I watch videos on game addicts, I always feel sorry for their wives.
Just imagine, these are the women these men have achieved, they won them in their youth with some of their positive qualities. And these women decided at that moment that they would connect their lives with this beautiful man. They believed in a bright future, experienced difficulties and conflicts. And in an instant everything changed - their loved one was captured by addiction. And it's like starting to live with another unpredictable person. He can do anything, and will not consult.
It is very difficult to imagine that this happens, but it is the bitter truth.

wrong in that part , because all the vices you mentioned are completely to spend money but in gambling there is a chance to gain more though it is smaller percent yet there is far different than those others so addiction in gambling is harder to achieve .
and also you are correct that those are all leading to same thing and that is to lose our life if not managed correctly .

Actually what I know is that stopping gambling addiction is easier to do than quitting addiction from drugs, even though we know gambling addiction there is still a chance to win even though the percentage is small, but still gambling addiction is easier to cure because usually when someone is an addict has lost everything from his family or his assets he will heal himself when he feels alone and loses everything.

But depending on each human being, there are those who can heal themselves, there are also those who are desperate for it because they are frustrated because they have lost everything and have lots of debt everywhere, making it difficult to get up to recover. Logically, it will not make him die if he has to leave gambling, which is actually not must be done, simply reducing gambling is more than enough.

When talking about more opportunities to make money, I would say that it is better to choose trading or investing than gambling, but here it is not a matter of how much profit we can get, but the pleasure and satisfaction that we get when gambling so that addiction is more difficult to stop when a gambler can enjoy these two things.
Gambling has the risks of trading and investing also has risks, but on the other hand, gambling provides its own pleasure and satisfaction that we cannot possibly get from trading or investing, so there are no words to waste money as long as we have what we have.
And from this pleasure and satisfaction, it can be very difficult for someone to stop gambling.

And it's better if they don't waste money so they don't get addicted to gambling, especially if they have seen what impact someone can experience when they become a gambling addict. They cannot stop gambling because it is so hard for them that they will continue to sink into gambling until someone notices it and wants to help them get out of gambling. But that is also if they are aware to ask for help from others so they can be saved. So stopping gambling or continuing to gamble is a choice of our own.

The chances of winning are not the same in gambling, we can't see that in a 50:50 manner, but rather 90:10 for a win, of course a very small thing, when talking about profit opportunities.
When it comes to better opportunities in trading, I agree about that.
The pleasure of gambling is indeed different and it cannot be generalized with the pleasure that can be obtained from trading or investing. I, who did it, felt it was much different, even though both have risks in their impact, but these are two different things when viewed from this side.
I can't play lightning with grandpa Zeus and or fruit breaking at night with Sweet Bonanza and the others, and these casino games are more fun, but if you get carried away with fun in any field it's hard to stop because you're already in the addiction trap.

[Willitivity]

Boys. It is time to quit gamble. I created a topic about taking gambling as a major income or not and fought a lot of kind people who held an opposite point. I own them a truly apology. I am sorry. No matter who you are, gambling is only for fun. Never take it as income at anytime. If you are still gambling, you should quit now. If you cannot quit by yourself, there are so many channels to help you. Even you can talk to me. I will do my best to help you.


Just some chemical reaction happened in my mind today, I get the point at that moment. Gambling for income is totally wrong and toxic for spirit and body. You will never be successful in that way. But I like gamble is still the fact and it will never change if doing nothing. So, why not open a stream and show it to all people who have interest on that. Let me prove how hard or easy to quit gamble. I will only gamble the affordable fund only. Maybe less. I am streaming 24/7. If some software problems disrupt, I will fix that except sleeping time.


Quit gambling now!


If you decide to quit gamble or take gamble as entertainment only, welcome to join me.


I hate gamble!

Update 1
Boys. You can't imagine how relax I am when decide to quit gamble. Here is the way. I will stream all my gambling behavior with recording. No stream No gamble. If you are going through the same situation, join me. You will obtain a new life.

You're quite within your right to tender Your views on gambling, but outrightly calling it bad and telling everyone to quit it is kinda far reaching. I Know a couple of persons that have built a fortune through gambling and also those who became wretched through same gambling. The best approach is for everyone to know what works for them and also moderation is key.
Gambling is quite addictive because of the dopamine rush it creates. But that doesn't make it bad in itself, it's basically how people are irresponsible with gambling that's the bad part.

Unfortunately, usually a game addict will only ask for help at the very last moment, when he is at the bottom. But there are even difficult cases when, having lost everything, they don't admit it openly. This ends very sadly for them.

In both ways you get positive emotions when win(get profit) and negative when lose(money). In both situations we risk money and play the game. I think that difference between gambling and trading is in the difficulty. When we read the rules for some casino game - it is easy to understand. When you begin trading and try to understand when buy and when sell - it is really difficult to understand fast.

It will never be hard to quit if we're wise enough to handle gambling and we're disciplined to control ourselves. It's fne to rely on it if we seek fun and entertainment but we shouldn't go beyond our limits.

That's a good keyword a disciplined attack when playing is the right thing to do, always in control to whatever extent, either you are winning or losing or maybe you are only looking for some fun as long as the discipline inside you still controllable your chance of quitting easily is not going to be a problem.

Always depending on how you control that emotion and keep that discipline to make sure that you are following the set limitations
that you setup before you gamble.

[dothebeats]

When you are a gambling addict, your type and personality, your family and friends have been affected by gambling addiction, it is quite difficult to get rid of it.
It will be a long process before you can overcome it for sure, and the support of your own families and close friends is what you need to overcome that vice. Because you need to rehab yourself when that's the case, but if you're not at the level of being an addict, it's easy to get out of there for sure.

Exactly. It all comes down to the question of just how deep you are in gambling already. Much like anything we get addicted to, we will have relapse and quitting will be harder as compared to those who are only doing gambling in an adequate amount.

[Pandu Geddon]

Exactly. It all comes down to the question of just how deep you are in gambling already. Much like anything we get addicted to, we will have relapse and quitting will be harder as compared to those who are only doing gambling in an adequate amount.

however, those who are addicted to gambling must have a really serious intention to get out. those who do get out of gambling usually because they have already lost too much and have even lost some of their assets to the point where there is nothing left for them to bet on. different indeed for those who have just entered and understand the bad situation that will occur. it may still be easy for beginners to get out without great effort.
it is possible for gamblers to relapse into gambling when they are not aware that what is spending their money is gambling. so when they come back for the money they will come back.

[Onyeeze]

To quit gambling is not easy when you have played gambling and lose or gain in gambling you may be likely to play gambling because you want to make it with gambling, so only the zeal alone will make you to think that gambling is make you to be rich and you will need to recover all the money you have spent in gambling, so I believe that gambling is something I know that you started it, it will be very difficult before you can quit from it, except you have transferred to the place you are to another place and the will be no access to Internet for some period of time and mainly a six months without Internet and constant observations

When you begin trading and try to understand when buy and when sell - it is really difficult to understand fast.

It all depends on the basis and experience of each person, whether they are more knowledgeable in trading or gambling.
Both are equally at risk but in trading the risk can be more limited because we can see price statistics when to sell and when to buy and the losses are not in total, in contrast to gambling where we risk a certain amount of money on luck to win whereas when we lose all the money we have at stake will be lost.
I am someone who loves to trade crypto and also likes to gamble for fun so have a decent understanding of both.

Unfortunately, usually a game addict will only ask for help at the very last moment, when he is at the bottom. But there are even difficult cases when, having lost everything, they don't admit it openly. This ends very sadly for them.

Even though the chance looks small, that person should still try it, especially if the gambling addict is his best friend. No one wants to see their best friend sink into gambling and become a heavy gambling addict and they will try to save him before something worse happens to his best friend.

And if he can't be with the gambling addict 24/7, he can ask people close to the gambling addict to keep an eye on him and let him know if anything happens. But indeed, the assistance can often be too late, especially if these people cannot be with them every day and every time.

Look mate, there is a saying in my place that 'he who is not ready to save himself, nobody can save that person, no matter how hard they try', being a friend to an addict gambler does not mean you should turn yourself to a babysitter, most especially in a case where the addict him or her self isn't even a baby.

Don't get me wrong though, its not a bad thing to try to help, after all the biblical law commands us to be our brother's keeper, but then, you can only help someone who is willing and in need of help, else your effort will just be  wasted one, and if not careful, you might even end up becoming an enemy to the said or supposed friend, this opinion of mine is based on personal experience though.
