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

[paxmao]

Perhaps we should be talking about reducing or controlling gambling rather than quitting which seems far too radical for something that be treated with "aspirin" rather than "cutting the leg". Any method that allows you to reduce your gambling to acceptable levels will also have other benefits in life as it increases the self control and can be applied to other things.

[anjiitem]

To quit gambling addiction is not easy to do or achieve in general view, but if the addicted gambler think it's something easy for him to achieve and do then it will conveniently take place without any stress in finding a means to stop addiction, in most of the cases of addiction, it is we the third party trying to introduce a means to curb addiction on gamblers and not the gamblers on their own will are trying to quit, so it may be very difficult for us to achieve this except the gamblers involved make a move by themselves towards stopping, then we support them towards the achievement if such.

For the level of severe gambling addiction, it is indeed not easy to get rid of this addiction because this person can no longer control his lust.
A person who is addicted to gambling may not be able to think easily to get rid of his lust. I think the only way maybe with hypnosis or rehabilitation or maybe the family has to take action to force the person away from the environment where he was exposed to gambling.
After removing a person from the initial environment he knows gambling then his family provides support by making someone do other activities that he likes.

When you are addicted to gambling you will not feel it.  Because then gambling will seem like a good thing to you and you will feel normal for everything. Gambling is not bad or harmful until it becomes addictive.  But when it turns into addiction, it is very harmful for him.  And then Quit  gambling becomes very difficult for him. So before he gets addicted to gambling, he has to control himself from it, then it will be much easier for him to quit gambling.

It is true what you say because when we are already experiencing gambling addiction, we will not feel that we are addicted to gambling. We will take it for granted and gambling is an activity that we already consider a routine activity like working or doing something else. But to stop gambling is not as easy as we think because it requires a lot of things, including building a new habit where this is the most difficult thing. The difficulty we will face may be laziness which will make us not want to do new things, which is a good thing to start preventing gambling addiction.

Yeah, once you are addicted your time will be eaten by such activities, more on thinking about how you will play the game and what are the strategy that you will be using to beat the house or to make some money from gambling, you use all the efforts and time just to make things to happen and there's nothing that bother you since you think that you are  doing things the right way.

But to stop gambling is not as easy as we think because it requires a lot of things, including building a new habit where this is the most difficult thing.

Not easy if your engagement is already deep, though it's still doable if the person have the will to overcome the concern and start
to change direction and find alternative activites to forget about gambling.

The difficulty we will face may be laziness which will make us not want to do new things, which is a good thing to start preventing gambling addiction.

Same as what I mentioned, that self-will helps in turning your attentions to other things that will allow you lessen or prevent gambling.

The best possible approach is to avoid getting into addictions because the aftermath  of it is always devastating because it becomes almost impossible to quiet just like every other form of addiction where you have to go out of your way just to satisfy the urge.

So it is better to avoid such situations and never test them at all because it is very fast to become an addict, but so hard to pull out of it when you already slid into addiction.

It's scary how right you are. Many people, like those deep in gambling, often don't realize they're stuck until it's too late. The thrill and highs of the game cloud our ability to see the damage. And quitting? It's so much more than just "stop placing bets." It's changing a way of life. Like trying to break a daily coffee habit, but ten times tougher. Your mention of laziness hits hard. That initial resistance to change, that comfort in the old ways, is a trap. But remember, starting a new habit can save a life. We all need to wake up and see gambling for what it truly is: a risk

Exactly, that addiction can happen in a quick process you never anticipate that you will be getting attached that deep after you win or lose a decent amount of money, either way that kind of lust will push you to keep on betting or keep on playing, you lose your control once you allow your emotions to dominate.

Like what you mentioned better not to start or not to step into it to avoid any deeper engagements, it will keep you safe from any form of addiction, it will save you both from mental and physical issues as addiction is a big problem to solve.

Quitting gambling is easy only when it is not become addiction. The best form of self-discipline is when you understand that you are gambling more often than you used to before, you will have to devise a means to give less attention to gambling at that very time. It is very easy to control your habit. But when you refused to reduce the attention, you give to gambling it passes that stage and enters into the stage of addiction. It will be very difficult for you to quit gambling and it will be like starting a new way of life according to what you said above. So the best thing to do is when you discover that yourelf or your friend is gambling more often than normal you caution yourself or your friend as the case may be.

That initial resistance to change, that comfort in the old ways, is a trap. But remember, starting a new habit can save a life. We all need to wake up and see gambling for what it truly is: a risk

Gambling is not a risk, how we the gamblers go about our gambling activities is what turns it to either being risk or not, casinos themselves describe gambling as a way to just have fun, its just like going to the bar and grabbing a cold bottle of your favorite beer or what ever drink, and paying for it, or going to a game center, and paying to be given a space to play your favorite game on the game machine, this two scenarios I've mentioned are just some ways people spend their money just to have fun, now gambling is one of those ways we spend our money to have fun, but what makes gambling quite different is for the fact that you are given a chance to earn that money, plus more back if you are lucky, and this feature of gambling have drove many people into abusing gambling, that is gambling with a mindset that is completely different from the main purpose of gambling , and for this set of people, gambling becomes risky because as losing money counts for something for them.

But on a normal level, gambling is not supposed to be considered a risk as it could been as paying for a service, gambling and expecting money in return is how gambling becomes risky.

Some people can also easily stop their addiction by themselves, but that's only if they are made to realise how bad their lives have become because of their addiction habit. Some people don't even realise that their gambling addiction is so bad. To me, it seems some people lose their sense of reasoning properly, and they don't even care how much they lose; they don't care about adding value to their lives; they just totally lost everything. So first of all, they just need to be made to realise themselves, and they can gradually stop. Some people make it more difficult for themselves in the sense that they can't even listen to anyone cautioning them, and as such, they can't even get help from their loved ones.

The only way to stop gambling(if it is a problem) it to understand that it is a problem by yourself. You right, that the gambler willn`t hear anyone else with cautions. As for me it would be nice to make a pause in the game and spend some time for analyze - how much time you spend for gambling per week/month, how much money you lose, how many time you spend with your friends and family, etc.
After it the gambler can understand if the gambling a problem for him or not.

[ethereumhunter]

Yeah, once you are addicted your time will be eaten by such activities, more on thinking about how you will play the game and what are the strategy that you will be using to beat the house or to make some money from gambling, you use all the efforts and time just to make things to happen and there's nothing that bother you since you think that you are  doing things the right way.

And if this is the case, it will be difficult for us to stop even for a moment because our focus is still on gambling. But that probably won't help us much to win because the house will still win and make a lot of money. We can only try again another time. For this reason, we must be able to overcome gambling addiction and before that happens, we must be able to stop ourselves.

Not easy if your engagement is already deep, though it's still doable if the person have the will to overcome the concern and start
to change direction and find alternative activites to forget about gambling.

However, before it's too late, we must find other activities that distract us from gambling. This needs to be done so we don't get addicted to gambling and lose money.

Same as what I mentioned, that self-will helps in turning your attentions to other things that will allow you lessen or prevent gambling.

It is important to have a strong will to reduce our gambling time. This is because we don't want to experience a gambling addiction that can take up all our time. And we also want to enjoy this life well.

It's scary how right you are. Many people, like those deep in gambling, often don't realize they're stuck until it's too late. The thrill and highs of the game cloud our ability to see the damage.

That initial resistance to change, that comfort in the old ways, is a trap. But remember, starting a new habit can save a life. We all need to wake up and see gambling for what it truly is: a risk

If someone has continued to feel comfortable, he will find it difficult to move into the discomfort zone, especially if he builds a new habit. There is no need to use gambling as an example. We use the example you mentioned, namely the habit of drinking coffee in the morning. And we change it by not drinking coffee. There will be a rejection effect from our bodies.

And so it is with gambling. But it's all for the good of those who want to stop gambling. Otherwise, we will only regret it for the rest of our lives. We need to change ourselves first so we can really do it. By starting a new habit, we can overcome gambling addiction and old habits will not carry us away.

Quitting gambling is easy only when it is not become addiction. The best form of self-discipline is when you understand that you are gambling more often than you used to before, you will have to devise a means to give less attention to gambling at that very time.

So the best thing to do is when you discover that yourelf or your friend is gambling more often than normal you caution yourself or your friend as the case may be.

Quitting gambling is not easy because it requires great effort to divert our attention from gambling. Maybe many have tried it but haven't succeeded and still need much more effort to overcome gambling. Reducing attention by doing other things will help a person to be distracted but if he does not try to do other things every day and prefers to use gambling as a filler in his time, he may still find it difficult to stop gambling.

[wallet4bitcoin]

No ardent gambler is ever proud of the act of gambling, they can't just help it. Its beyond control when you allow it eat deep into your soul.

I for one, will not subscribe to gambling even for the fun of it. Although, we unconsciously fall into what society classifies as gamble, but its not with the intention to gamble. For example, overleveraging is considered gambling but we subconsciously indulge in it.

Overall, Gambling is a 'NO NO' for me and I advise others to do same.

[TheakaCP]

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!

It's just that that's what happens with people, I have a friend who was very good at what he did, but he allowed himself to be convinced to fall into drugs, and that led him to believe that it was a crazy thing, he just wanted to have money to buy that and that's it, his life didn't value him anymore, he didn't feel sorry for anything , this can be similar to what addiction does in a casino, if a person Falls and surrenders completely, stick to the addiction it doesn't give him important to the rest, they lose their shame, the meaning of many things and they don't care what they think of them , it's something very bad and it makes me feel sorry, but there are people who cannot get out of that world of addiction alone, there are some who Need help Urgently.

Don't you know that some compulsive gamblers lose some sense of reasoning and cannot even think the way you have described? All their concerns are just how to gamble, have fun, and earn money from it. My friend's girlfriend was telling me stuff about her dad some days ago; she said her dad is a Gambling addict and that she sent some money to him for him to buy her a plot of land, and the man assured her that he had already bought the plot of land. While he was lying, instead he used the money to gamble, and he lost the money. That was really a huge amount of money, but this man gambled it off. I was just surprised at how some dads have even lost their dignity and self-respect for their daughter to just waste some money that is not even their own.

This story is typical in principle and shows the usual behavior of gamblers, who may already be considered as gambling addicts. 
Even a person who is not a gamer often finds it difficult to stop and not continue playing. 
Especially in such cases, when suddenly it became lucky in the game and immediately there is an obsessive thought that the moment has come when the streak of luck in the game has begun.  And similarly, when you lose a series of rounds in a game, your thought works the other way.  An inner voice or intuition, in other words, as if whspering to a person - now the losing streak will end, a little more and you will definitely win!  These two states are the maim reasons to keep playing.  And of course, many people need a good reason to stop and not continue playing.  And the reason when you just lost everything and the money ran out is definitely the most compelling reason.  But some go further, play with other people's money, lose them too, and then look for where else to find money to win back.  But it never works out.  And it turns out bad.  The player becomes an addicted person.

Your experience in gambling may not be the same for others. Gambling may not be as safe as you if no one else makes the same mistakes you have made. There are some gamblers who consider gambling as a means of enjoyment. For them, that happiness is more important than money. Moreover, many people have achieved good reward by gambling. Though not everyone will be so lucky. But if it is not conceived as a financial field for earning then gambling will not be a threat to one's life.

I like that analogy, if you can maintain that treatment with gambling as a source of entertainment no harm will be made, we can generalize all the people who gamble as there are some of them who are just doing it out of fun and are capable to quit and accept the defeat each time they ended their sessions, while most are being engage and turn into addiction there are some who can manage to quit and not to do any unusual practices that will affect their finances.

In terms of numbers or percentage, I can say small but really doable for people to have that good control over their gambling participation.

Indeed, our experience will not be the same as other people's, but we will have the same goals when we want to stop gambling, but we will also use different methods. But if anyone can stop gambling easily, that's a good thing because they don't encounter difficulties when they want to stop while other people will encounter difficulties that might be unimaginable.

But if they can get a win from gambling, that means they are very lucky. And it would be even better if they could control themselves while playing gambling to reduce the number of losses. So keep it up if you can stop gambling easily because there aren't many people who can't do it yet.
