~ It is true that gambling have become modernized, technology have affected and changed almost everything, trying to stop gambling right now will only push people into the older ways gambling was practiced before the internet came into existence.

And also worthy of note is that, every activity in life have their pros and cons, their advantages and disadvantage, gambling in itself is not a bad thing to do, abuse is what lead many people into becoming gambling addicts, those who respect the rules of gambling always enjoy and have fun doing it.

Sorry, I don't understand what do you mean by that? You mean gambling addicts after undergoing a therapy start gambling in land-based casinos? Are there such cases? Because I think it's harder to get rid of internet gambling addiction, and people who are cured from it will not even think of going into land-based casinos.

I totally agree with the second part of your post though. It's not gambling itself that ruins people's lives, it's abusing it is what's bad.

Since the second part is fixed, let me be silent about it, but on the first part, before @Fivestar4everMVP ships in his valuable response, let me say there is a high probability that he is right. I said this because when something happens, you never can tell what the effect will entirely be. Most times too, the effect could be distributed, which is why I believe that he is right and you are also right to have the doubt about it. In gambling, if you look thoughtfully, you would realise that the most addicted nowadays are the ones who are gambling on the internet with their own gadget which is now the closest companion in the 21st century. This is possible because the more they are closer to their gadget, the more they feel that urge to open the app and gamble. This is not the same thing as a gambler who gambles often offline, that alone will limit him automatically.

And part of what will limit him is the proximity of the gambling house to his house or office, even the transport cost is enough to dissuade some people and convince them. This alone could practically help those who are gambling addicts to caution themselves when they vowed not to gamble through the internet again but through the gambling house only. As simple as it is, it will work for so many, though not for all since we have different strengths of mind and determination. Specifically, for someone like me, my yes is my yes, and the same as my no, and when I delete the app, I will not install it again. Under this, it will naturally reduce the gambling extent of the person and this is what I believe @Fivestar4everMVP is trying to point to in the first category. After all, if that could solve an issue that online gambling can't solve, many might resolve to it if need be.

Whether you have caught yourself getting addicted neither online or offline gambling and on the time that you had been able to experience those worst things then you would really be definitely be
trying out to avoid as much as you could once you had tasted up that unfortunate condition. People would usually be starting out to realize with those mistakes if they would really be able to experience those bitter things on which they would really be able to forget it out for the rest of their lives and they would really be avoiding things as much as they could. If ever they would really be going back
again into addiction just because of having no control then it would really be just that proving out that your addiction hadnt been wiped out yet or simply you are a type of person who doesnt really
learn from past mistakes.

and also with their sincerity then success will come to this project and also for others that will be Open minded that gambling is not just as simple as they think and Gamblers should not be blamed completely because no one wanted to be addicted and the obligation here is to help them out and theres no need of blaming as this is really a serious problem as the world facing addiction problem.a friend of mine also faced this problem but lucky that he is now sober and yeah a gambling free human.

That too, sincere help is better than a forced one because you know that the person cares about you. Open mindedness is a mindset that needs to be learned early on in life because being open minded is difficult when you're an adult with an established belief. The victim blaming part is a difficult one because when you listen to the argument of these people that do this, they always sound so logical and reasonable but the problem is that victim blaming invalidates their horrific experience into a lesson that will soon be forgotten after listening to it, I hope that more and more people learn not to do that kind of thing against people that are a victim of addiction and many other horrifying experiences out there. Good for your friend to be able to stop gambling and live a life free of that vice.

We can only lecture peeps surrounding us but we cant make them act on it. If it was that easy then everyone would have gotten motivated with motivating speeches and podcasts but they dont. In reality motivation remains valid for only momentarily timeline. Once that person is out of that zone they no longer act on it. This requires restructuring of the lifestyle by going for another motivational therapy. That sucks.

Whenever it comes to gambling, only one thing can help them stay away from the addiction and thats: “discipline”.  Mark this word, it can help get out of the addiction problem real quick with streamlined gambling. This discipline could be as easy as following timelines, making routine checks on accounting, giving away games when losing and much more realistic checks in the list. So yeah, better follow a discipline rather than hoping a help from someone else.

Self control would really be that different on each person when we do speak about levels and its true that discipline would be the key but eventually most people do fail on doing so. Why?
because they cant really just removed out gambling into their minds and doesnt realize on whats actually doing it into his/her life considering that he has been addicted into it.
 You wont really be putting up on so much trouble if you are really just that sensible on the things that you are doing. People would really be just having those realizations when it already too late
or the damage has been done already and this is why you should be thinking up fast before that happens.

i think what he meant here is that if online gambling will be banned or stopped, people will just go back to the traditional way of gambling which is land-based casinos. it is not that online gambling addicts after stopping their addiction, will go back to offline casinos.

but in any case, any vice is bad if you abuse them. if done in occasional basis, you would find that it is truly enjoyable as you will have the fun of your life.

moderation is needed to keep yourself in check of your habits. if you are feel you are heading to addiction, much better to pause for a while and give time yourself to contemplate on things and what you really want to do in life. sometimes, self-assessment from time to time will help you understand what's going on around you and yourself.

Well, when there is some suspicion about the player who is being added, the first thing you have to do is figure out how they can attack the problem. It is obvious that it also takes a lot of courage on the part of the person affected to accept something like that, because it is not easy, For me, in particular, it will always give me a lot to help people with words, since I see them in that way, because it is something that can affect a lot, I could say that a person who accepts that he is addicted and that he would like to be helped and that gives Just enough to think about, because the fact of attacking the problem quickly means that many things that come later will be avoided, because problems, things that happen within the person's environment that are negative, all this is what makes the eprosans possible. They may fall into temptations that they should not, all this is valid as long as things are done well, some, those who can do things to generate a better cure, go to psychologists, who are specialized people who are able to deal with cases like these because it is the most is recommended.

In this order of ideas , we can talk about the fact that there are many ways that things can be Avoided in games, and it is not only addiction that can be avoided, but also some players who are affected by other things that Cause problems , like alcohol , well. It is also necessary that you check yourself before going to a place, that is, if you have a bad drink, do not drink while playing in a casino, because it is a very bad food, if you have a bad drink, do not drive the car, in fact if a person It is a bad drink, because he should not do it when he goes out on the street so that he does not have unpleasant situations for that person and those who at that time do not meet him , because things can turn out to be very ugly, some people do not accept that an eprosna that is past drinks because it is not right at all and they can achieve it , there have even been cases where they Even kill people like that.

Hi Everyone!
I wanted to share a project that I've been part of. 5 years ago, I changed course from being a casino affiliate to working with problem gambling. It's been a project full of challenges, happiness, tears, and fighting. I wanted to do something different, and I saw how many people struggle.

QuitGamble.com is an online platform and mobile app to help people with gambling problems. The platform is free to use, and members get access to:

• Video Courses
• Extensive Guides
• A community with +4400 members
• Chat, Forum and Support Groups
• Mobile App

Everything on QuitGamble.com is built from a problem gambler's perspective. We don't talk about responsible gambling, which many other organizations who claim to work with problem gambling do. For us, there is no such thing as RG for someone with gambling problems. (Who would write about responsible drinking on a page for alcoholics?)

The website is available in English, Spanish, Swedish, and soon French and Portuguese.

If you're curious about our project, please feel free to reach out. I would be happy to receive any feedback, both positive and negative. If you have a gambling problem, I would recommend you take a look at our how to stop gambling addiction guide. It's a step-by-step process that will put you on a new track.


Have a super day, everyone!

Not a bad idea. The first thing that comes to mind is that when something is "free" the product is "you" - the user. But still, it is great to have so many resources in one place, in fact it may become a bit overwhelming and it might be useful to have a one-pager for quick reference to those that might benefit from it. Also "quit gamble" is not really what most people would want... you know, is not crack or smoking.... most would want to "control gambling".

And that's why I said that to get rid of online gambling addiction is harder and I doubt that we could name many gamblers who got rid of online addiction but continued going to land-based casinos.

moderation is needed to keep yourself in check of your habits. if you are feel you are heading to addiction, much better to pause for a while and give time yourself to contemplate on things and what you really want to do in life. sometimes, self-assessment from time to time will help you understand what's going on around you and yourself.

That's a good advice. Indeed, gambling addicts can't think of anything but gambling all the time. Thinking of what you really want to do in life can open your eyes and see that you are heading to addiction if you continue this way.

Addiction is likened to madness, it is until a madman knows that he is mad that he will be healed, the same thing goes for addictions, especially in gambling. Gambling addiction is bad, but unfortunately, it takes a whole long time for this to occur to many addicted people, they would have wasted money, energy and time on it and all that they will be thinking about is betting and getting to try their luck in it. For some of these people, it's mere fun, and to this category, it might be minimal since they might be wise enough not to use big money for it. Yet, if too consistent, money would be wasted. To them, they are enjoying their hobby, but there is nothing you do too much which takes more of your time and never without a good thing to show for it that is good.

A responsible gambler must moderate things so that they will not affect their personal lives. This category is lessened in effect, yet, no one should be addicted to gambling, it is bad, and if it doesn't take money, it takes another thing, or both. However, the worst category is the ones that would believe they can make their life's fortune in gambling, but instead, wasting money repeatedly and continue to do so for they believe they can make the money eventually through it. In most cases, the money will never come, but this would have attached to their minds and it goes on like that until they eventually realize their mistakes or find help.

This is possible because the more they are closer to their gadget, the more they feel that urge to open the app and gamble. This is not the same thing as a gambler who gambles often offline, that alone will limit him automatically.

It's true but it can only work if the person gambling offline doesn't have a land-based casino or a betting shop near them and they need to travel from their place to somewhere far away to gamble which they might not always do because you wouldn't want to travel more than 20km just to gamble with $20 or something which a person wouldn't bother doing if they are gambling online since they can do it from the comfort of their home, sitting at the couch having a snack.

However, if the person has a casino or a betting shop within walking distance from where they live, it might not have that big of an effect on them and their gambling addiction because whenever they have some money, they can walk into the casino or the betting shop and gamble it away without any problems or a second thought.

But if you do have the money then it wont really be that a problem on which it is really that something that you would really be definitely be able to do so since you are capable on doing on. There are
people who dont really care about on the situation no matter how tough it would be as long they could really be able to do the things on what up into their mind then it wont really be that an issue.
It is really just that there are people who are really that desperate on playing or doing things basing up into the level of addiction that they do have into their selves.
This is why it would really be that important that you should really be having that kind of responsible act or being that mindful and wary on the things that you've been
doing and not really just that impulsive making out acts without thinking about the possible things that could happen into you.

Well, this is a matter of deciding what to do and what not to do, in particular I would say that the things that are good in Style , because to avoid an Addiction it is Necessary to do what is Necessary so that it does not happen, now onuan Internet connection, and that you have your documents well, because you can do things like being able to execute a way to do things better, for example, I have the option of being and entering a place like this, I pass my KYC and I start play, it is better to have 20usd in bitcoin to be able to have a better destination for them, I would not spend on trips or anything like that, you have it inside because it seems Reasonable to me, in online casinos there are many ways to do these things, You can do a good job if things turn out well with the casino , that is, if it is a reliable casino, if it is an authentic casino , if it is a casino that many things can be done to verify that they are trustworthy, in the Forum there is a Great list of Reviewers who do this Work , and boy is it worth it.

In this order of ideas, we are the People who can make a Difference , that is, When we are in the Presence of having very good casinos , we can have as an Example those that I Consider to be the best for me: stake.com bitcasino.io, duelbits, rollbit, roobet , among others who are very nice , reliable, who are constantly Growing , who always care about the well-being of their players, who do not get tired while with the Demands that things are always very clear in their Tos , and that is I spoke very well of such places, because things are good when they are as Transparent as possible because it is obvious that things the way they are, because they tend to be a Little more delicate, and what is interesting is that they can generate better ways to Attack problems when they arise , for that reason we must choose what works Well , it is a fact that Things like this are Better.

I think the truth of the matter is that, gambling have been made really easy for everyone, whether you are gambling offline or online, it's pretty easy to gamble, and this is because, for those gambling offline, it's easy in the sense that, they don't have to travel far anymore as offline casinos have become a very popular and as well as a very lucrative business,  we have a lot of them around us and not far away anymore, and even a gambler lives in a remote area where casinos dont find good for their business, there are actually betting agents usually stationed on those kind or type of places, so, one doesn't really have to travel too far to gamble anymore, just walk into the betting agents shop and state what you want, and that bet will be placed for you ASAP.

And for those who gamble online, it is the most easiest this days, and this is why I personally believe that online gamblers are the most addicted when it comes to gambling, quitting is always hard as long as the gambler have a mobile device on his hands with an internet connection, and where its even harder is that, most gamblers still do other meaning and productive things online, like making money through freelancing, trading and so on, so, it is not easy for a gambler to give up his or her device and stay off the internet all in the name of trying to break free from gambling addiction.

It's up to those people if there's some betting shop that close to them. It's all about being responsible and the discipline that they can apply to themselves. If they can't be disciplined and they won't want it.

No matter how close or far they reside from the physical casinos, they are going to come there no matter what the situation is. This is all about themselves already and whatever is the circumstance that they're facing if they are determined to go there, they will go.

That's why we still see people that keeps on gambling even if we've giving them 100% of tips on how to stop.

Distance has become a moot point when it comes to most services and this includes casinos, since we no longer need to travel a few miles to gamble at our favorite casino, instead we can literally just grab our smartphone from our pocket and we will have access to almost anything that we may imagine, consequently we need to be more careful than ever on what we do online and how we do it in order to avoid an addiction to develop which could take us forever to get rid of.

If a gambler is decided to gamble, distance can be not an issue to him. But it adds really a point on why someone who wants to quit can go back anytime because of the location.

Well, the most important matter right now. Even if someone is too close to the location, we're even closer now through technology and internet. As long as you have the device, you can gamble anytime and anywhere and I think that's even a harder situation for most of us.

consequently we need to be more careful than ever on what we do online and how we do it in order to avoid an addiction to develop which could take us forever to get rid of.

We are always reminded to do things in a controlled way. Because when we get out of touch, the situation is going to be way worse than what we could imagine.

Thats true. I have amazing experience with something similar to this. When I was in university in Sunderland (UK), there were more william hill casinos than the houses. Lolz. Surprisingly they has casinos right on the main road that led to university. The street name was Chester Rd. As far as I remember there were 2-3 different franchises that is Betaway, William Hill, and Corral. All of them were housed with different games, whether its slots, roulette on screen, sports section, they had everything. Me and my friends visited them more often but we realised pretty soon that we are getting addicted to this a lot and we need to stop. It was not that hard to stop it as we made our focus more prompt on the studies, master projects and soon they were like invisible for us in no time. Its all about where you focus, you just need another strong addiction (a good one) to cop up with the first one.

This category is lessened in effect, yet, no one should be addicted to gambling, it is bad, and if it doesn't take money, it takes another thing, or both. However, the worst category is the ones that would believe they can make their life's fortune in gambling, but instead, wasting money repeatedly and continue to do so for they believe they can make the money eventually through it. In most cases, the money will never come, but this would have attached to their minds and it goes on like that until they eventually realize their mistakes or find help.

There are many cases where people are aware that they are addicted to gambling or other things, but still people refuse to take treatment to stop the addiction because they always use the argument that they can cure themselves and this gets worse when the person who is addicted to gambling is not happy in the real world, financial and love problems lead people to go into depression and become addicted to something and as long as you don't talk much with the addicted person for them to tell you why she is unhappy and how could she be happy and then start treating her for addiction, it would be difficult to cure an addicted person, years ago I had people I knew who became addicted, they suffered from depression

and at that time I couldn't understand why they were suffering from depression, what was their problem that led them to constantly be sad and frustrated, it was something they didn't tell me and looking back today, I see that it was too obvious to see what they had . but at that time I was too naive so I couldn't understand much, I pressured them to undergo addiction treatment, he assumed he was addicted, he underwent addiction treatment but when he left the isolation center, he returned to addiction, which It made me sad and he kept making a lot of promises that he would be able to stop this time, but he couldn't stop the addiction and as a result he went back to the isolation center to get adequate treatment to stop the addiction.

but months later, when he left the isolation center for addiction treatment, he returned to the addiction, this was frequent until the addiction killed him, by this I mean that it is not easy to cure the addiction, and you need to be a very determined person to fighting is having the will to win and being the type of person who doesn't give up on themselves, even when things don't seem to be going well and it is necessary for the person to remain very firm in the fight they are having.

Hi Everyone!
I wanted to share a project that I've been part of. 5 years ago, I changed course from being a casino affiliate to working with problem gambling. It's been a project full of challenges, happiness, tears, and fighting. I wanted to do something different, and I saw how many people struggle.

QuitGamble.com is an online platform and mobile app to help people with gambling problems. The platform is free to use, and members get access to:

• Video Courses
• Extensive Guides
• A community with +4400 members
• Chat, Forum and Support Groups
• Mobile App

Everything on QuitGamble.com is built from a problem gambler's perspective. We don't talk about responsible gambling, which many other organizations who claim to work with problem gambling do. For us, there is no such thing as RG for someone with gambling problems. (Who would write about responsible drinking on a page for alcoholics?)

The website is available in English, Spanish, Swedish, and soon French and Portuguese.

If you're curious about our project, please feel free to reach out. I would be happy to receive any feedback, both positive and negative. If you have a gambling problem, I would recommend you take a look at our how to stop gambling addiction guide. It's a step-by-step process that will put you on a new track.


Have a super day, everyone!

Not a bad idea. The first thing that comes to mind is that when something is "free" the product is "you" - the user. But still, it is great to have so many resources in one place, in fact it may become a bit overwhelming and it might be useful to have a one-pager for quick reference to those that might benefit from it. Also "quit gamble" is not really what most people would want... you know, is not crack or smoking.... most would want to "control gambling".

Going by your last statement paxmao, i also concur with that, people will rather control their gambling than quitting, i rarely hear people saying that they wanted to quit gambling, but you can always hear about some in need of how they can control the way they gamble, if we go by the option of quitting, it may not really solve the problem at hand like when we realized the need to deal with the way gamblers had been on it the wrong way and come in to help with the situation.
