- Lack of Loss Chasing
When you lose, you do not attempt to bet more and more, with the mindset of winning back what you’ve lost. Rather you "leave" to bet another day.
This is the reason why many gamblers have that greedy essence on their own perspectives. When we're losing, we tend to gamble more and chase more our losses. But then those that have been problematic about it and experienced that there should be a control when this comes to them. One of it fits what OP said about not chasing anymore with those losses. You can lose for this day but don't rush to recover them as soon as possible. Maybe by tomorrow or some other day, that's when you're going to go chase that losses until you break even or recover at least a few percentage from those losses.

- Signs that you are not a gambling addict are that you rarely gamble, you can control yourself gambling in a casino. You just do it as a hobby really and you don't think of it as a main source of income. Regular gambling doe not mean a gambler is addicted as long as he still have the control over his activities. Some gambler have allocated a fixed schedule for their gambling routine just to have some entertainment and stop after the schedule expired. You are only doing this to pass the time so that you can forget your problem for a while or if it is called in another term it is stress relief. And you didn't let gambling eat up your time here for a long time, of course. And you don't spend a lot of money just to lose the gamble.
I agree, this behavior does not constitutes to gambling addiction, having a time limit for gambling, fund that we can afford to lose for allocation as bankroll after all this all falls under gambling in moderation and self-control that simply means the gambler is gambling responsibly.

Heathly relationship with gambling sounds cool, I doubt there are many users who have such signs on popular gambling platforms. Sometimes I open the gambling chat and gonna read what people type each other. After a few hours, the same people on the chat were discussing the same things and this is a clear sign of gambling addiction. Such addicts look for additional money to continue chasing losses and recover the loss. Pathetic but sad reality on many gambling platforms, unfortunately.

This is a nice topic, thanks, buddy. You did a fantastic job organizing these signs. They serve as a gentle reminder that gaming may be a relaxing hobby if we maintain self-discipline. Everyone enjoys a good adrenaline boost after a victory, but who needs the drama of obsession? Your emphasis on steady tolerance is spot on. Fun, not money, is what the game is all about. The time to take stock is when the activity ceases to be enjoyable and more is required to have the same effect.
Not to mention the need of exercising restraint. The most valuable player award. Having the self-discipline to say "no" and mean it is a priceless asset. It prevents us from straying off course in the same way that car brakes do. Another positive indicator is that you prioritize your health and wellbeing. Healthy eating, regular exercise, and plenty of sleep should never be neglected in favor of gaming. Thank you so much for the advice. Trust me, they're helpful even in trading, which is a completely different kind of addiction (count me in lol)1

Guess I'm not addicted to gambling, then ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Even before I was regularly gambling, I wasn't really that hooked into playing. I find gambling as a pastime rather than an opportunity to make money. $20 on dice a week is enough for me, and I never did extend way beyond that set budget as that already lasts me an hour or two in the casino. Honestly, it becomes boring after you do it repetitively - at least for me who's only in gambling to kill time and not profit.

•Stable Tolerance
This would be everything on which you do have that kind of tolerance on different situations whether you are on the consecutive losses situation or you are on the moment that you have almost lost your money on which this is where emotions would usually kicked in on which it would really be that resulting on having that kind of approach which you would really be that impulsive on these kind or type of moments if you dont have that kind of self control or tolerance on such condition.Its true that not all person would really be that the same when it comes to self control but this one is really that indeed crucial and much needed.
Just treat up gambling for entertainment and not a source of income and youre good. Usually people do push up themselves on doing gambling because of having that making money kind of thinking on which they are really that believing that they could make themselves rich on the time that they would gamble, until the reality would slap up into their faces and telling that it cant really be possible but its been already late since the damage has been done already.

Gambling addiction can't be identified easily, because most of the gamblers keep it as a secret and never reveal it to the outer world. A person who have the ability to understand his/her position at gambling is not addicted to gambling. Simply when a person is in loss, he should know to take a break than making the bet value high to recover the loss. This is kind of addiction to have the wallet balance same as the start of the wager.

Maybe they have difficulty knowing whether they are addicted or not. But I guess if a person keeps returning to the casino and playing some gambling games, he seems to have started getting addicted...
And I keep returning to casinos and some games I love! As I said many times, we are all addicted to something... so we are all addicts in many ways. It's just a question do we control our addiction (and how we do it) or addiction controls us? Yes, I also keep returning to the casino, just like you. Maybe those are signs that we are already addicted to gambling because we keep returning to gambling even if we move casinos. Still, the point is we are back to gambling. I agree that this is about how we control ourselves while gambling. And even if we keep returning to the casinos and gambling, we won't be swayed into spending more money. And with self-control, we can learn to continue playing gambling comfortably without worrying about using more money.

Lack of Loss Chasing I believe this a very good sign for and against the topic. If someone who gambles a lot and he does this then it is clear he is addicted to gambling because as he is chasing his losses, he will keep making more losses on it until he loses all. But some who is not an addict will take his lose as one of those phenomenon where you play and don't win. He won't dwell on the agony of defeat or loses. Chasing of loses is really a way to determine how addicted someone is to gambling or not.

Having those signs indicate nothing. In fact, a gambling addict would try to find those signs and then try to convince themselves that they aren't a gambling addict. What made you think that all gambling addict do some sort of illegal activity, or gambles illegally or is dishonest. I am sure there are lots of addicts out there that gambles "legally", yet they can't stop. Also, don't forget, all "addicts" starts as a non addict first and then eventually becomes addicted to something. One shouldn't just look at the signs that you posted and start believing that they aren't a gambling addict. If you gamble, gamble for fun. Think of it as a paid form of entertainment rather than a source of money.

I think the biggest sign that you aren’t addicted to gambling is if you can stop and feel no ill effects. For example, we’re all addicted to our phones. Leave the house without yours and you feel naked and incomplete. If going a week without gambling leaves you feeling similar, like you’re missing something you need, then maybe you might be addicted.

I have never been addicted to gambling to the point where my life becomes worthless. However, I have experienced an addiction to console gaming, where my entire day revolved around playing games from the moment I woke up until I went to bed. It was a state of restlessness where I felt uneasy whenever I couldn't hold my favorite gaming console.
When it comes to addiction, the symptoms may be similar to other types of addiction, and there is usually a breaking point where someone will stop being addicted. In my case, what pulled me out of the addiction was boredom. The more I understood the game's mechanics and my curiosity about it diminished, the easier it became for me to break free from the cycle of addiction.

The phone addiction you mentioned is right, if you go out without your phone there is a kind of boredom that you will feel because we are so compactible and accustomed with our phone but we can't even help that or can we ? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Maybe for online addicts, phone addiction could be termed as positive addiction. Yes if you miss to gamble for sometime probably because you are busy in another schedule and you don't regret not gambling it means you are walking away from addiction. In fact, for an addict no other schedule come first if not gambling and betting the day's game.

It is still addiction if you can't leave your phone at home, no matter if it is positive or negative, but again, it is best if it is positive as it brings us something about it like a good effect, unlike negative addictions like gambling, where you can't do other things now as you want to gamble as well as lose tons of money. But again, if you can survive not playing gambling for a month even if you are bored, then for sure you are not addicted because mostly when boredom strikes, we gamble like we use our phone if we are bored and keep scrolling on it.

Phone is the most important thing in this era, it's make sense how most of people can't leave their phone at home because everything is in your phone e.g. money, social media, messaging app etc. Well I'm not really sure the long frequency of gambling can be said as an addict because if you're have a long frequency gambling but you're only gamble with very little money, it's mean you're still able to control your financial and it will not harm your life. Although you're always gambling every your free time.

Yes, it's true that every time we try to quit addiction there is always an effect and it will be a positive effect if we really manage to stop gambling and get rid of addiction even though it's hard at first, but if it's easy to do, it means we're not heavy addicts, on the other hand, heavy addicts seem rather difficult to change their habits. so it seems like something is missing, therefore the need to change the mindset. The signs of addiction are varied, and we may not even realize that we are addicts, even if we only play a few times on the gambling platform, but as long as we play wisely and don't destroy ourselves, everything will be fine, for example, gambling is for fun by playing wiser. manage your time and limit your gambling budget it will look better.

That of gambling is about playing with your money that means your finance is going off from you but for phone, I don't think you are losing any finance. Moreso for phone, people can be addicted to it because they are perhaps working online with it and that could be the major reason to be addicted with phone which also includes using it to bet online ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Moreso for phone, people can be addicted to it because they are perhaps working online with it and that could be the major reason to be addicted with phone which also includes using it to bet online ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) That can't be called addicted if you use it for work or other productive choirs but if you use it just for browsing any nonsense online and you didn't do any useful things on whole day long then this can be considered as addicted traits. But in gambling if you are fine and can last a day or two without participating any gambling activity then you are fine and doing right. Compare on those people who's been addicted already for sure first thing to come up on their mind is to gamble and they cannot pass any day or minute because they always want to gamble. This is bad since we know what addiction could bring to a person and this need immediate help to avoid getting into bad conditions.

There is no man alive that can keep all your rules OP, it's almost impossible because it's way too much, why not just set a timetable for yourself and set an amount for your gambling days, either you win or you lose you take your leave that day and wait for another gambling day to come, this is the best strategy.
The best rule for a gambling newbie is never come any close to gambling if you have no job, many people may not agree but gambling is not meant for the jobless, there is no way you can control yourself if all you have is a certain money that you saved from your pocket money and you plan to gamble with it, when this is your amount on earth, you won't want to lose the money to be honest.
And it's easier to lose all that money in gambling, can you see what I am talking about? Even if you want to invest your money into any stock or crypto you need a source of income first, there must be something to always run back to if the unexpected happens, but if you have no job and you choose to gamble first, you will go mad.

Perhaps, you can add that there is no desire to gamble because you have read many stories about the defeats experienced by many people, so they don't want to gamble. Their curiosity is overpowered by an unwillingness to lose money, especially when they feel they have worked hard all day and feel no need to spend a fraction of their money on gambling. You are so afraid to see losing money at the gambling table that you decide not to gamble, as this can be something that can keep you from approaching gambling. And even though your friends invite you to play gambling, you can refuse because you know that gambling is not good for you.
This is possible too. Some people are afraid of taking risks, so it's best for them to keep their money rather than spend in gambling which is uncertain if they will win and bring home some profit. Because of the many failed stories about gambling experience they are more scared to try it with the thinking that the same damnation will happen to them as well. And we can't really blame these people for thinking about that since they are just thinking about their hard-earned money and their future as well. It's not bad to be afraid to try something especially if you know that you won't be able to handle it well when things go rough. Personally, I find it better to not try at all if you are unsure of something rather than regret later because you risked your chance despite knowing the possible negative outcomes.
