Possible measures to stop online gambling addiction.

[Ever-young]

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.

Those might appear to be helpful a little that's for those who always play games on any new casino they run into why browsing the internet, but for those who have different kind of casino website bookmarked and those that have app they have them installed, this pattern won't work for them, the thing which i think will help is if the gamblers can be able to work on their self and know their gambling limit and when to call it a stop, then we can be rest assured that they can limit their gambling habit. Only a gambler can be able to give it self an advise and know that they need to reduce their gambling habit, every other thing which they can read or advice given to them is just a added procedure to help them hold their decision strong.

i believe it is very possible to do, such person just needs to be intentional about it. blocking the ads is also a good way, another way i think it can be achieved is to withraw yourself little by little. have a reducing budget that draws you away such that once the budget for the week is exhausted thats all for that week and you will not add more money no matter what. this i think will help to redirect your mind from it as the budget reduces untill its insignificant such that you can finally decide to play or not to play and stand by it.

If you want to start some changes better to make sure that you have control on yourself its quite useless if you want to make change your life but even in a small changes you cheat yourself its become useless now, there's a lot of way that you can prevent your self in playing gambling like OP said there's a lot of restriction feature right now in the devices we are using, in your ISP with the use of the network router you can block the access to a specific domain so any user who is connected to your isp cant enter this particular platform, also in your devices there's a restriction with the access, this change really start from your self or else your just trolling your self.

Those who do run into casino online through adds and window notification can implement this procedure to help them a little bit reduce their addiction. If they could just add self discipline too that would be of help to cushion the effect of the addiction on them and as for those who are core bookmarked gamblers, that are fully into gambling, it takes extra precautionary measures to take so as to keep one away from gambling. Although it would not be that easy but with a step by step approach coupled with self discipline one can be able to achieve. Just as you have said, the ability to stop self addiction rest within the decision of an addict. If an addicted gambler has prepared to stop, so be it as they have made up their minds to stop and are ready to follow up with activities that is in line with self restrictions from gambling.

Motivation to change is key. Gamblers miss their chance to recover without it. Its essential and the start. If desire is there but strategy is not, what happens? The'how' can be a tough mountain to climb even with the best intention to quit.

This is my opinion: a comprehensive, achievable plan to distract from gambling is needed. That desire you mention? Consistent and accessible planning fuels it. New hobbies, diversions, and professional treatment are available to gamblers. Encourage them to study, engage, and progress despite the distance. Yes, its worth it, and a strong plan clarifies and simplifies the stages.

For this reason, someone who wants to change must be able to create a new habit to replace their old habit. And with strong encouragement and intention, they can do it and have new habits that have nothing to do with gambling. It may take time for them to have a new hobby, but it is worth a try to cure their gambling addiction. And without doing anything or just dreaming about a new habit will not give them any results because they can get deeper into gambling and find it difficult to cure their gambling addiction.

What is difficult is making the first step and continuing it every day. But if they have succeeded in doing it on the second day and so on until the seventh or tenth day, they will not feel difficult but will be even more interested in doing it because it has tremendously impacted their recovery.

Diverting your attention to another sort of activities that may lead you to escape from being addicted or to stop your gambling activities, it's something that you need to have in mind, with the power of self-will you can manage to work it out and be favorable to your intentions, I like that statement where you can push yourself to drive away from gambling and start new things that will dominate your mindsets.

With that, you can assess yourself if you are still in control, as you can change direction as addicted gamblers can't do things like that. They will always be on the side where they will keep playing without control.

If a gambler has no willpower to cope with his obsessive desires to beat the casino, then he will not be able to change his point of view on the account of gambling without experts and so will hover in dreams of big winnings. It is difficult to change something in life without understanding the root of the problem. And after all, the gambling addict has exactly the same lack of understanding of the problem, so he is satisfied with everything.

Im right there with you on the power of self-will and the importance of diverting attention to other activities. The point you bring up about assessing yourself, its crucial and deserves emphasis. Its a process that can help determine if you're still in control or on the path of addiction.

Even activities we divert to for escaping addiction can turn into addictions themselves. Someone might divert from gambling to, say, watching TV series or playing video games, and find themselves caught up yet again. Its like jumping from the frying pan into the fire.

How do we ensure the alternatives we choose are constructive and not merely replacing one addiction with another? The conversation you started, its great. It opens up avenues for us to discuss and come up with viable strategies for avoiding and overcoming addiction.

It is often the case that those that gamble too much simply do not have some other hobbies outside of it, and while they claim other activities bore them and that is why they gamble so much, there is literally an universe of activities and other hobbies they can practice.

So as long as a person looks for long enough then they will find another activity they may like, however this is a measure that will only work when at least a shred of self-control still remains on the gambler in question, otherwise this measure will be useless.

And after all, the gambling addict has exactly the same lack of understanding of the problem, so he is satisfied with everything.

And with self-denial he will continue to think that he's just fine and there's no problem with the way he's handling it, there are many gamblers who get out of control because they keep aiming to beat the house, something that they keep trying to create new strategy inside them that they think will work and will give them decent profits.

Like what it said, without that will-power there's a big problem and experts' help will be necessary to guide the person to find that will be inside him and start doing better.

It will be useless if there's no control anymore. If the engagement is already dominate inside the gambler's mindset, it will be very difficult to direct them into another direction and use it as alternative solutions. Gambler who are already addicted need deeper attention with people who are close to them, experts may be needed to assist them to work it out and find the right process to keep them away from this sort of addiction.

Yes, we must try to do it for our own good so that we don't experience gambling addiction like other people have experienced. At least we have tried to be responsible for our lives and not make it a mess. With the power of our will, we can distance ourselves from gambling addiction and only consider gambling entertainment. With help in doing other activities, we can divert our thoughts about gambling so that the time we spend on gambling can also be diverted properly. This reduces our gambling activities so that we can reduce them well.

By continuing to do these activities slowly, we will be able to see that we can do other activities without having to gamble, so we really want to reduce gambling activities. And later, we will be able to control ourselves when gambling and know when we must stop gambling because there are other things we must do.

You are correct mate. Identifying the root of a problem would definitely help one render solutions to the problem. If the willpower is there to curtail excesses, so be it but if not, the person would still be wallowing in their addiction. Same is applicable to all walks of life. As a gambler one should see gambling as fun and as such should gamble responsibly. Casinos are business ventures and would definitely host games for fun lovers to play and entertain themselves with little tokens paid to satisfy their pleasure with the hope of winning in return. As game is concerned, there must be a winner and there must be a loser but however the case maybe, one should be able to accept the out come with fate and move on.

Yes, balance is key. People often think the only way is to avoid dangerous habits like gambling. Actually, moderation is crucial. We know chocolate is bad for us, but we don't have to give it up. Manage our indulgence by quantity and frequency.

Your idea about substituting gambling with other pursuits is spot-on. It takes brain training to find delight and excitement in other things. We'll think less about gambling as we repeat these other activities.

Why do we constantly have to be 'doing' something? Why not relax for a moment? Thats difficult. If you try it, it may help you avoid gambling.

But for gambling addiction, what will be identified because all the root problems of gambling addiction are almost the same, namely the goal of increasing income and also the desire to always win large amounts.
There is no single method that has been truly proven to be effective in solving the problem of gambling addiction even with the help of experts I sure there will still be difficulties in dealing with addiction problems.

Yes, one of the initial causes of gambling addiction can also be caused by the feeling of pleasure that is obtained and from such feelings it will give rise to greater desire for pleasure and adrenaline.
But gambling for fun can also have a better impact than gambling to make profit and the percentage of people experiencing addiction can be greater when gambling to make profit.

[shasan]

I think for those who are already addicted is almost impossible to stop gambling but those who are not yet addicted might be prevented them by religious faith, family, the social effects of gambling, and so on.

The gambling addiction also due to the continuous loss or continuous victory to the game.The targeting of the loss in the gambling also the cause for the gamblig addiction by the gamblers.The targeting big win may be cause of the continuous game after the continuous loss in the gambling.Targeting the win is not the good move by the gambler,this is same way of expecting the million dollar as the profit from the trading with six month of the experience in the trading.The gambler should ready to wait for the process to get big win.

Yes, gambling addicts must have experienced the pleasure of getting a jackpot so they hope to get it again. The more often they gamble, the more they lose and they become emotional and continue to gamble in the hope that they will get another jackpot. When gambling has become a habit for him, it will be difficult for him to get out of the gambling circle.

Apart from that, addicts also like to increase their bets, making the situation worse because the losses will be even greater. They no longer like small bets

[Onyeeze]

I don't think I it be easy the way we think to stop gamble addictive not to participate in online gambling, because its clear that using that kind of internet to gamble before you can stop the gambler except that it does not have money in bank account or the person doesn't have funds in its gambling account to participate in gambling, because since the person is making use of internet or anything that will make his or her to have access with internet, it will continue participating in a gambling, the only thing I notice that pushed many of our youths into gambling is lack of money and lack of employment opportunities, when their is no employment the rate of gambling will be turning to millions everyday but if their is employment their will be limitations of gambling across other countries because their expectations to money is now being cut shirt but someone who is addicted in gambling all this point lines will prevent the person not to participate in gambling

Of course losing and winning will be the beginning of an addictive behavior towards gambling because when they lose gamblers will chase their losses and when they win there will be sense of greed to get something bigger so from here they will start to gamble more actively until forget about time, risk and also finances which could possibly get worse.
The only thing that can prevent gambling addiction from the start is to have limits and control so that what they get when gambling does not make them gamble more often but all this is also not guaranteed because sometimes human attitudes and thought patterns are more unstable or changeable.
And gamblers will really feel reluctant to stop when their desires and brain have the same goal namely one of getting something that can satisfy even curiosity can easily become a factor in gambler having difficulty stopping.
There has been lot of research and studies that may have been carried out to overcome gambling addiction but up to now no one has really succeeded in proving the most effective method that has been proven to cure one of the biggest problems of gambler.
