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

So, an addicted gambler doesn't basically stop when they get out of money

When a gambler stop gambling when they get out of money, I won’t really call that a addicted gambler, but the set of people that I do call addicted gamblers are the once which will do crazy things just because they needed money to gamble with.

I agree. Because addicted gamblers can't stop that easily and they tend to do things (good or bad) just to sustain their addiction without much thought of the consequences for doing so. Gamblers who can stop for the reason they have no funds already to use for gambling might not reach the level yet to be called addicted.

Nevertheless, being addicted doesn't mean you have no chance to change what you used to, but it requires a strong will to already stop. And this will start by helping yourself to reduce your gambling activity. It's not going to be easy but there's always a way if the gamblers are determine to change.

When a gambler loses a lot of money in gambling he tries to recover his losses. There is no way to call it an addicted gambler. Addicted gamblers are those who cannot control gambling or cannot stay away from gambling. But the person who loses more money will try to recover his money but in most cases there is a scenario where the gambler loses all his money while trying to recover his money. And until a gambler's bankroll is over, he will continue gambling. It is not easy for such a gambler to take a break from gambling while having a available money on his account.

There are any senario like this and some gamblers even if they are too addicted if they found Thier true love or let say  girl friend then they will sacrifice Themselves and leave gambling forever than leaving his girl. And also even me if I am in the situation then I'll choose my girl and leave my gambling. Even though we can not deny the fact that once we got addicted we need to control ourselves in order to brt greediness and spontaneous decisions.

That is correct. Finding something that might interest us more can be a way for us to leave gambling forever. But it seems it's still not easy because we really have to be able to realize that what we are doing in gambling has crossed the line so that we can try to get out of gambling. And finding something more interesting can help us to get out of gambling. Maybe it's best before we get addicted to gambling, we should be able to control ourselves so we don't experience problems that might impact our lives.

No one knows that they are going to get in trouble until they get in it, similarly, someone wouldn't know that they are going to get addicted to gambling before the time they realize that they have actually become addicted to it, and even that doesn't happen with every addict because most of them will argue that they are not addicted to gambling but they just gamble normally, they would also not accept the fact that they are in a problem and need help.

So, only the ones who actually realize that they are addicted and are having problems in their lives because of it would consider finding something else that they can do so that they can get away from their gambling addiction, it will be difficult for sure, but if one really wants to do it, they can get success eventually.

Cheating is the first thing any addict does, whether it's gambling addiction, or alcohol and drugs. And you didn't know that those who can't control their desire to play gambling are being treated in the SAME clinics where drug addicts are put. It is so! From this, a game addict cannot understand at all what he is doing here. He believes that he has nothing to do with all these people, because he is not like that - I write this from the words of gamblers who gave interviews about their treatment. And unfortunately for the first time they are never truthful in their treatment. They cheat and pretend that they want to get well, but in fact they still want to leave here and continue betting. And only by the 3rd time (according to statistics) they REALIZE their problem and realize that "this game is stronger than them." And then comes an absolutely honest treatment and a desire to change.

The thing is that most gamblers have become so comfortable with the addiction of gambling even when they've discovered their addiction for it, it's just like a drug addict that knows he's still have a thing for drugs but would pretend they've repented so they'll be free to go continue with their additions somewhere they can't be monitored, maybe until he's been affected very negatively by it that's when he'll realize himself and be willing to change and sometimes it might seems too late to be helped maybe in situations where it's lead him close to his death, in the case of severe gambling addiction it might not kill you directly but you might suffer a huge loss that could that could cause a high blood pressure or steal of satisfy your gambling addictions and get caught.
 Sometimes most people do not realize their addiction for it on time and might have caused alot of financial damage to them self without them even realizing how much they lost to the casinos, gambling addiction is one thing that's very easy to adapt to but very difficult to quit in some cases, it has led many youths in the 3rd class countries where there's adverse poverty rate to their early grave and recently in my neighborhood two brothers almost killed themselves because the younger one stole money meant for rent bill to go gamble in a nearby casino, that's an effect of gambling addiction and it's not easy to quit without help.

Same drill if you manage to win with your previous attempts that desire to play back will engage us again into gambling, making it difficult to resist when your lust increase your appetite to keep on playing, just like what I mentioned it's always good to find another alternative way to keep yourself busy and not to think of gambling anymore, if you already have that activities make sure not to let anything to bring you back to any gambling activities to avoid another addiction to grow inside you.

Even though stopping gambling requires more effort, we shouldn't stop, especially when we have experienced many defeats. We realize that gambling can lead to loss so we intend to stop gambling for good. And we also know that it is difficult so we ask for help from the people around us and maybe we don't need to tell them that we have a gambling addiction and just say that we need something to keep us busy. It will distract the people around us and won't ask why we need an activity to keep us busy. I think that can be a solution if a gambling addict feels uncomfortable saying he is a gambling addict so he can try this method.

Indirect request if you are shy with what is happening to you, I think I'll agree with you on that manner, there are gamblers who have some pride that they don't want to admit that they are already addicted but they are trying to skip away and with that kind of solution asking someone to keep you busy or to be with you in some activities that will keep you away from gambling will help you a lot in moving and skipping any gambling activities.

Hard in terms of limiting your interactions with gambling but doable if you focus yourself on another kind of activities that will
push you to keep your focus.

[Stable090]

I agree. Because addicted gamblers can't stop that easily and they tend to do things (good or bad) just to sustain their addiction without much thought of the consequences for doing so.

When addicted gambler are doing illegal activities just to get money, they don’t care about the consequences of their actions at that particular moment, all they need is just to get money to gamble with, but after gambling and losing, some of them will come back to their right senses which some of them might end up regretting their actions, but at that particular time when they are about to gamble or when they are already gambling, they will never think about the consequences of their action’s.

When a gambler loses a lot of money in gambling he tries to recover his losses.

But hope you know some people end up being addicted to gambling because they are always trying to recover their losses, if you are gambling it’s better you don’t even try to recover your lose always, if you keep on losing in a particular day, it’s better you stop gambling for that day and wait for another day, but if you are trying to recover your losses, you might even lose more money which at the end you will end up being addicted. Some people will never agree they are addicted to gamble, some of them will claim that they just want to win back their losses, and if they are lucky to win back all the amount they have lost in that day, they will still end up gambling more.

Its true that many addicts, particularly gamblers, are often in denial of their problems. They believe they are different, that they can control their desires - until reality proves otherwise.

The science of addiction tells us that addictive behaviors - whether they involve drugs, alcohol, or gambling - trigger the same areas in the brain, giving a reward that leads to a cycle of compulsive behavior. Acknowledging this similarity is important because it shifts the perception of addiction from a moral failing to a health issue.

Your point about honesty in treatment is well-taken. True recovery is only possible when the person recognizes the extent of their problem and genuinely wishes to change. This often takes time, and indeed, multiple attempts, but it is possible with the right support and treatment approach.

[Shinpako09]

It's difficult, so I decided to only stop if I won a large sum, and if I can keep myself occupied with other things, particularly in digital marketing, maybe I'll quit for good and simply focus more on meaningful things. For the time being, I'm attempting to emulate my former self. I'll stop when I hit a specific amount of loss per day that I can no longer sustain. Maybe the constant defeat fuels my desire/greed to win even more.

when you have control over what to believe and when to stop playing, you are already a responsible gambler. more gamblers will drop out of the game after a big win. but they are hard to stop when they are on a losing streak.
I have been in such gambling situations in the past. it was so bad that it affected my finances. after that, I paused for a while until I finally came back with the boundaries that I tried to hold on to myself. but to stop completely, I still can't do it.

It is difficult for a gambling addict to realize that he has experienced a gambling addiction, even if it is very severe. They will always deny that they are addicted to gambling because they can hide their gambling activities from other people and only play when they are alone. And those who live with a gambling addict must really pay attention to all their activities, including when the gambling addict is alone and using his device.

However, if we care about those addicted to gambling, we must continue to pay more attention to them so that gambling addicts know that the people around them still need them. And maybe we can invite him to get out of what he does every day so he can experience life out there and open his eyes and mind to the fact that there is still a lot that he can do.

Yes, I've also seen gamblers with high self-esteem who feel they don't need help from others. If that's the case, we can only stay with them while looking for ways to try to wake them up and I'm sure they will be able to leave their addiction. They will admit to their gambling addiction, especially if we can enter slowly into their environment to see what kind of help we can provide first.

We can invite him to do other activities that can keep him busy and distract him from gambling. Later he will be able to feel it and slowly, he will surely open up to accept us and want to follow our suggestions for his own good.

Large amount of winning are too hard to say that you can quit gambling in easily as we all know that once we hit the jackpot and have a 3 or more successive win then for sure our readiness will take over and we can not control our self to stop gambling immediately because all we thing is we can win again and again without knowing that the more we bet the more we loss. So it's too hard to quit gambling all we need is self discipline and control in order to prevent addiction.

That kind of bond will allow them to talk about the situation, once they already bring that to the topic you may start bringing the things that you know that will help them to stop or lessen the chance of letting them to play, that's the good timing to discuss all possible venue to keep them away from any related gambling activities.

Avoiding by means of keeping them busy with other activities that will eat most of their time will surely help them to forget anything about gambling.

If you are only waiting for when you will win a huge sum of money in gambling before you will quit that means you are not even ready to quit gambling.
Such amount of money you are seeking to win is not won on daily basis by everybody. It is just like hitting the jackpot.

Invariably what you meant is that you need to win big money in order to recover all you have lost during gambling before you quit. Do you know what this means? It means that you are chasing your losses and you are going to lose the more and still will not be able to quit gambling.

In interviews, many gamblers who have problems with the game admit that they really regret that at the beginning of the game path and were very lucky with the bet. And they won a large sum, multiplying the deposit several times.
The paradox is that they are not happy that this happened. Because from that moment of winning, they had a feeling that they had never experienced before. This is the feeling that they have earned a lot of money very easily, while asserting themselves.
After all, at such a moment, when your express has played and won, you will begin to consider yourself a damn genius. Like all people are idiots, but only you own the analysis, and you can ruin a casino or a bookmaker.

I think it is necessary to be consistent in gambling, for example limiting the gambling budget as well as limiting wins so that when we achieve a certain win, stop gambling. It is important to do this so that consistency can protect us from addiction. As we see, many gamblers waste opportunities when they win, they keep playing and don't stop finally experiencing defeat.

The wins we get sometimes do make us greedier so that it makes us curious about ourselves and increases our confidence that we can win even more by continuing to play, that's why gamblers shouldn't do it, at least self-control knows when to stop gambling and know when we have to play gambling so gambling won't make us addicts.

Of course, if you are an addicting and start regretting your actions. You will blame someone or something and in this case, it's the luck that had made you win on a casino that made you secrete endorphins that made you want to do gamble again since you find comfort in doing it. We all have different gambling routes and instantly being addicted to it is surely hard and will make you regret sooner or later.

Most new players would think like that, they say they will quit gambling after hitting the jackpot and covering their losses from betting. However, the reality is, the more eager they are to recover their losses, the more frequently they lose, and it doesn't align with their expectations. It becomes a problem that will always thwart someone from quitting gambling because they will always think, "Maybe this time I will win."

That is the powerful hook that keeps gamblers, especially newbie gamblers that are addicted from quiting. Nothing is so easy to quit, especially when it becomes a habit. I have had a friend who decided to quit smoking. And when I ask him when he will quit, he'll reply that it will be after his birthday. What special thing is happening in his birthday, I don't really know and till today he smokes. Sometimes I remind of this and we laugh over it and we keep waiting for his birthday every year to quit smoking which never happened.

Sometimes gambling, sports betting makes a person addicted for that reason, because if we take counts of what we have spent, what we have lost, what we have won, the person who has lost is a novice, it is obvious that he will feel a strange feeling, it is the recovery of his money, it is something normal, I think that everyone defends his money and everything is valid up to a certain point, and when the novice player feels the need to recover his money, he begins to make bets desperate, and that is the bad idea because it is very likely that you will lose all those stinks and not recover anything, not even half a dollar, on the contrary, you will end up losing more, that is what should be avoided.
