Possible measures to stop online gambling addiction.

[ethereumhunter]

If you set into mind that you will quite gambling because it is not a good thing and imagine its bad characteristics then you can forget it easily. But if you are trying again and again in the hope to be successful one day then this thing in my opinion is better in other fields but not in gambling. Parents should keep check on their children's activities and if they find their involvement in such things then from start they have to stop them.

However, it will depend on how someone can stop their gambling activities because, with the many temptations of gambling, only a few gamblers can really stop it. Meanwhile, other gamblers are still gambling and do not want to stop gambling. And when they already have a gambling addiction, it will be even more difficult to stop it because it means they have to completely abandon the gambling activities they have been involved in for years and that will not be easy for them. And if that happens to young people, they must get assistance from their parents so they don't feel alone in their recovery program.

I gamble with a low frequency and I do not think I am addicted to gambling. However, despite taking every piece of advice, if I had difficulty quitting gambling or reducing the frequency of my gambling, I would seek professional support. Psychologists or psychiatrists can help people with gambling addiction. If people with addiction cannot control themselves, they may experience social, financial and psychological problems. Getting help from professionals can help them get their life back. 

Remember that nothing is initiate suddenly more serious but initiate stage is normal after which everything get worse. If a person is saying that he is just using little money and gamble for fun then it can be assumed that he will be accurately do this but not all the time because little addiction can be altered into worse addiction after the time flows steadily.

If you set into mind that you will quite gambling because it is not a good thing and imagine its bad characteristics then you can forget it easily. But if you are trying again and again in the hope to be successful one day then this thing in my opinion is better in other fields but not in gambling. Parents should keep check on their children's activities and if they find their involvement in such things then from start they have to stop them.

Addiction is a big problem psychologically and physically, we don't want it to happen to us. But can be possible when we lose control of our gambling habits especially if we are desperate to win and if we are chasing our losses, it causes trouble in our mind and affects our mental capability to determine whether our action is right or wrong. It needs someone who is professional in that situation to help because this is not a casual situation that is easy to manage on our own.
The only way to help ourselves from getting into addiction is to know our limits. I know it was hard because we are in the internet era where it is easy to gain access to online gambling but if we really have to control ourselves earlier, I'd see no problem.

The industry doesnt want you to have control. They gain from your carelessness. Its no accident that the number of online gambling sites has increased in the digital age, preying on our weaknesses. You are correct in saying that it is now easier than ever to become addicted in the age of the internet. Most people fall into this evil loop unconsciously; its like a trap set for the foolish.

However, if you're alert and aware of the threats, you can defend yourself. Recognize the significance of establishing limits. That is the initial action. Avoid letting the industry's siren song pull you farther in. A strong will and awareness are the first steps in the fight against addiction.

The living environment is also one of the reasons why it is difficult for someone to stop their habit. Disabling gambling site advertisements in your browser settings is not effective if you still hang out with friends who often gamble. As long as you hang out with people who are gambling, this habit is very difficult to stop, especially if you have money to gamble with. The desire to continue playing cannot be buried all at once, it needs to be done gradually by reducing capital for gambling.
Consider the most important needs of life, such as food needs, electricity costs, water and other unexpected needs. Gambling habits can be reduced by reducing capital for gambling, if done consistently, over time it will be successful, although it is not a 100% guarantee, at least 80% will be successful in achieving the determination to stop.

In this case it is actually very easy for those who want to leave their gambling addiction in various ways that they can do and if some methods are not able to stop the addiction I think that person should be taken away to a place far from the gambling industry and not given internet access so that they don't can access online gambling.
In this way it will look very bad to pressure someone or like imprisoning someone but this is the last step for gambling addicts who find it very difficult to recover from their addiction and if this method really still doesn't make a difference maybe a harsher method will be used.

Almost all people are now addicted to online gambling so you cannot force someone to stop gambling if he is a big gambler. You need to have a lot of money to gamble frequently but you cannot become a gambler just by visiting the sites. On the other hand gambling sites will entice people to gamble by showing the lure of ads in various ways. However you can turn off all those ads you want from your device through the settings so you can do that if you like. Gambling is legal in some countries but why? Because their income is high and so they can spend their money anywhere there is no fault here but there is the profit of the government of that country. Good cause of correction Always keep yourself busy in some work.

Ads can be sometimes distracting as well and yes he can turn it off in his browser there's a lot of available extension out there and also he can use other browser like brave it has already a feature that blocks all ads and unnecessary things such as ads and spy tracker. It is hard to stop things that you already know and already have in your life and enjoy it but we should know when to stop things.

Forcing some body who have already tested gambling money to stop gambling is very difficult, but some people don't know, some one can stop gambling when it have a job that will take most his time and I believe that gambling have to deal with a spirit because ìf you are a gambler and you want or decided to stop gambling sometimes will push you again to gamble again, so what I want us to know is that the only thing that can reduce an addictive gambler to stop gambling is only when it is engaged in job that deals with time, so with the job the will be no chance to make predictions of games to gamble.

This is exactly my point as the site online or the adverts are not the problem, of course one thing is sure and that is the fact that it doesn't matter how many of the ads you block more will still come up provided you are on the internet every day because the gambling sites needs visibility and as such they will always pay for adverts as they have what it takes to place those adverts.

It's firstly important to take a self decision to want to curb it and then we can start from there, this will then lead to you taking conscious steps such as reducing your capital and there rest of it in oder to keep your gambling habit in check, then also keeping away from friends or environment that encourage you to gamble for a while too will go a long way to help.

Setting priority on things that should be prioritized firstly such as your necessities and basic amenities and not using the money ment for them to gamble, above all it's very important to make a self and conscious decision because if there is no will to want to curb it then it's definitely not to work as this effort are necessary and need to be made consciously and gradually.

Staying in bitcointalk I guess also can't make a gambler stop because casinos are swarming this forum 
As long as a gambler is not yet addicted, he can easily get out and stop gambling. It's those who are heavily into it already who are going to struggle to prevent themselves from playing. They are the ones who even if they set the exclusion program of casinos, come back with another account and blame the casino for not banning their IP. I guess the casino will start banning IP as a sort of help for them.

Yes, that method is like forcing him to leave everything behind, including not allowing him to access the internet. But it was all for his good because he was difficult to tell the easiest way. But maybe that is the last thing that can be done to get him out of gambling so he can build a new habit that will turn him into someone who is not dependent on the internet. But if he can still be told and advised to do other things, there is no need to do that because he still desires to try to do other things so he can start diverting his mind from gambling.

Maybe that could happen because there are many cases like that that we can see. those who get banned from playing then create a new account and start playing again. make a deposit but when they want to make a withdrawal, the Casino finally suspects the account and carries out further investigations and in the end, the new account will definitely be frozen again.
maybe the casino will implement an IP ban, but they will definitely be cheated again by such gamblers.

you are right, that means there is still awareness that can be sought to make such gamblers aware. but that can only be done gradually. trying to give him activities to keep him busy is probably the best option. at least it reduces the intensity of him being online at the casino.

I doubt casinos will ban IP. I was just kidding.
Banning IP will not make money for casinos. Besides the gambler will just move on to another casino and play there so it would make sense for casinos to keep them registering.  Withdrawing large funds will be the concern of casinos, not those gamblers who register and deposit. The only thing that the casino will do is warn users not to get hooked into gambling and if you do call someone to talk to, that's just it.  It's the gambler who shall eventually have control over his habit.

The real change starts from within, doesn't it? The crucial factor is the individual's free will in the form of a deliberate decision. Ads are everywhere on the web, and trying to block them completely would be an immense challenge. It is like trying to empty an ocean with a bucket. There will always be more

You're absolutely right that we can't just ignore the ads; instead, we need to adapte our responses to them. Cutting gambling money, avoiding gambling temptations, and prioritizing what are important are practical ways to gain control. Each journey starts with a single, decisive step. Change doesn’t happen overnight. Slowly but surely, with strong willpower and perseverance, one can overcome this impulse and take back control of their lives. It's all about making decisions and acting on them, isn't it?

Of course that's true, in gambling it is true that those who can change for something better are none other than themselves (gamblers), if they basically don't want to stop then they won't try various ways to get out of the zone, and some advice from others will be in vain. As you said, change will always start from within, and that's from their own sincerity and determination. Obviously, all casinos will never give up on promotion, and if you remove and block one of the ads that you find it's probably a waste because I think you'll still gamble. So I think not only that, but you also have to be more serious in making changes, even by blocking some ads it will be useless if your conscience still wants to gamble and your mind still continues to imagine winning.

Making a decision I think is not a difficult thing, but what is difficult is when you actually carry out the plan that you have made, and of course to stop completely in an instant it seems impossible, so like you said everything must go slowly. Limiting your budget is always the best way to reduce your losses and it's definitely better to prioritize the real needs of your life than to keep looking for vague results.

It's true, I admit that, like what I said previously the main influence when gambling is the environment and our friends. If we still hang out where the majority of gamblers are, I think it's impossible to stop gambling activities. The only person who can stop gambling addiction is ourselves if we have the intention and determination to stop, I don't think it's difficult. The first thing to do is avoid an environment where the majority of gamblers are, look for something busy or look for a job that makes us forget about gambling so that we can spend time working, but it doesn't rule out the possibility that if we finish working we You will remember to return to gambling, so to anticipate this, it would be good if we continue to be busy, whether watching TV or going for a walk or eating a meal with work friends, it can help someone a little to cure their gambling addiction.

Yes, we can only do it gradually, especially if it still seems difficult for him. Giving him other activities that can keep him busy so he doesn't think about gambling is another way he can do so that at least it can reduce his gambling activities at the casino. This path can also open the way to make him aware that there are still many activities he can do that can give him pleasure and not just from gambling. If he increasingly realizes that he is gambling too often and using a lot of money to gamble, he will start to change that habit and try other things that have nothing to do with gambling.

Yes that right, the living environment and relationships will greatly influence a person gambling activities because those who initially don't like gambling will try and start to carry out gambling activities if they often hang out with gamblers and the desire to try can become more dominant.
Likewise if a gambling addict wants to decide to try to limit or even stop gambling but on the other hand he still hangs out with people who like to gamble it will be very difficult for him to stop.
From here it can be said with certainty that the living environment and relationships have a big impact on the habits of actions that are often carried out.

When some people become gambling addicts, they prioritize gambling over the necessities of life even worse there are also those who abandon or ignore the fate of their families.

A gambler must always have long term thinking so that they do not get into trouble or experience problems in family or social life.
It would be a shame if someone experienced destruction because they became a gambling addict.

I have seen several topics here and other discussion thread where many people talked about gambling addiction. So many procedures been stated to follow sequentially to reduce the rate at which one frequently visit online gambling sites and possibly their application if they do have any of them.

I remember in one of the threads I raised up a point which was long hidden as the thread became too numerous and lengthy to continue the conversation on that topic. It was my opinion to add up in profering solutions to gambling addiction. I believe not too many people saw it to to say something about it so that is why I had to bring it up as a topic hear. I want to hear your opinion and ideas towards it.

Here is it;

I am of the opinion that since gambling sites are mostly online and some has adds that pops up as advert on visited site, one should be able to disable or change their browser settings  by blocking casino adds and as well disabling  gambling sites on their browser settings so as not to gain access to it anymore till the number of days they deem fit to their resolve. This was just a little tip I gave as a possible solution. I had to put it up here for further discussions so that the bigger community can see it as  well.

If you feel or think here is not the right place for this you can say it. I am open to corrections as we all are here to learn.

Nobody can correct itself in a faster way, what's important here is we should think for the long term effect that gambling could result to not just for our own but also for the family. Online ads is misleading and not those that promised high odds will become the reality. Lets be careful every time because we might be a future victims of non legit sites that will take huge amount of money from us. Once you got that bad experience, I believed we might fall into changing ourselves for a new journey for gambling perspectives.

This is the more reasons one should have limit to some certain activities or engagement. Truly nobody can correct oneself so fast and it takes some processes and procedures which would warrant an easy task assigned to making sure that one does the right thing in doing away with some habits being addiction. When it comes to gamble, there are other measures on can take which when applied can help reduce ones gambling addiction. Lots of them have been listed by other members of you read through, you would see them.
The thought of addiction alone is very worrisome because when it gets to that stage, it becomes a burden to not only the gambler but also to the family of the gambler because it has gone beyond control and as such one would need to put some self control measures or mechanism to help curtail the excesses from their gambling life.

[Negotiation]

Forcing some body who have already tested gambling money to stop gambling is very difficult, but some people don't know, some one can stop gambling when it have a job that will take most his time and I believe that gambling have to deal with a spirit because ìf you are a gambler and you want or decided to stop gambling sometimes will push you again to gamble again, so what I want us to know is that the only thing that can reduce an addictive gambler to stop gambling is only when it is engaged in job that deals with time, so with the job the will be no chance to make predictions of games to gamble.

I agree gambling can never be stopped earlier this gambling was seen live but nowadays gambling has taken a new form through digital media. No one will understand even if the information is hidden by gambling. In that case, the person should be in control. Betting between individuals on the outcome of a betting game or something else involves the exchange of money or valuables with the winner. To the naked eye it looks like a mere challenge but its intentions are not noble. Keep yourself away from gambling addiction and try to engage in family activities. Try not to over involve them in helping solve financial and other problems caused by gambling.
