Quitting gambling is difficult and quitting smoking is even more difficult. In my circle and most of my friends are cigarette addicts, and so am I personally. There are no smokeless gatherings, unless I am with people who don't smoke, because I respect them. Likewise, when talking about gambling, I don't gamble when I'm in front of people who have never gambled. So when you want to leave the bad activities you are doing, then leave the relationships that can only bring you bad things. I realize that even though gambling is fun, it is still quite detrimental, especially if done without good self-control. I'm quite worried that if I gamble in front of people who are quite unfamiliar with gambling, it could influence them to do the same thing. I'm worried that he can't control his gambling well, what's more, talking about good self-control, that's a difficult thing.
Obviously I agree with your idea of quitting gambling is very difficult, there are those who can quit gambling or addiction but their number is very small, on average those who have difficulty in my opinion are those who can never get rid of the hope of winning which of course is always the main trigger why someone has difficulty quitting the activity. Honestly you have a very good mindset by always limiting your gambling activities, as you have mentioned above that you will not do these activities when you are with people who do not know gambling at all, I must say that you have a good level of care for others in terms of prevention. I think real fun is when you can get a thrill but without any loss or risk of losing something, I think the idea of gambling just for fun is nothing more than a statement that will keep someone from overreacting, meaning limiting expectations by thinking that it's all just fun so as not to focus too much on winning. However we must agree that gambling is a risky activity, only winning and losing will happen at the end, even if you only put a small amount but there is still an element of potential loss.

Any form of addiction isnt really that too easy for us to quit specially if you've been dealing with it for a long time but its not something that would really be impossible. It would really be just that depending on a certain individual if they would really be that serious on quitting up gambling for good or anything that they are currently dealing with. This is why this situation would really be that depending in a certain individual because self control level will really be that differ into each other and this is why it would really be that always best that you should really be that sensible on the things that you are doing. If you do find yourself that impulsive towards gambling then it would really be a huge problem on your part.

This kind of situation is where gamblers will stop their addiction and start to reflect on their lives, but at this point in their lives, there is a possibility that they can't bring back their previous way of life. If a person knows that he can't control himself from being addicted to something, then it's best to just don't go near gambling because even if you do it out of fun and entertainment, little do they know they are slowly becoming addicted to the point that gambling will be part of their daily routine.

If someone is a problem gambler and has repeatedly relapsed to problematic behavior related to gambling, I have come to the conclusion that it's best to quit cold turkey.
With other things it can sometimes be recommended that the addict slowly winds down their consumption of the addictive activity or substance, but that doesn't sound very realistic with gambling, does it?
Quitting cold turkey, contemplating on your mistakes and talking about it with a group and some experts sounds like the best path. What are your thoughts? Could a problem gambler quit slowly and expect realistic improvements?
That is a good advice. Gambling addiction Unlike substance issues doesn't have physical withdrawal symptoms. People might be missing the adrenaline but you can avoid it if your willingness is strong enough. The thing gambling addict should admit is you can't get back the lost gambling money through gambling. It's better to start from scratch. Stopping gambling is a much larger asset than the money you have lost.

Not possible for a gambling addict to quit slowly. If gambling is a problem, the best is to just quit. After he quits, he can start to gamble again after a year. If he sees that he is still gambling in a way he waste money on it, he can quite again. This is how I stopped my gambling addiction.
But if the gambler do not quit and not able to quit, he needs something like rehabilitation program or medical consultant. It depends! I believe that it is possible to reduce addiction without completely stopping gaming, but to do so you need a few factors: 1. The person really needs to be aware of the problem and willing to change their life. If she doesn't admit that she is addicted or even admits it but believes that "everything is fine", then she won't be able to change. 2. It is necessary to have help from someone who will control access to the games, limiting the time they can play and also the money spent on the games. To do this, this person needs to be extremely trustworthy as they will need full access to the money in order to control it and also to the player's personal life to be able to limit their access to the game. If the addicted player manages to improve, over time it is possible to give him more freedom and see if he can maintain control on his own.

Yes, I agree. Gambling isn't a substance that our body has grown dependent over time due to regular or continuous use. Gambling is simply an activity. There won't be a significant change in our body and its chemicals simply because we abruptly end gambling.
But I think quitting gambling should be a process of replacing it with another fun and enjoyable activity that would effectively take away our minds from gambling. If we are focused on something else that we also enjoy doing, we can forget about gambling.
Slow and gradual process in staying away from gambling would only make you gamble more. The best is to stay away from it once and for all.

I often think about fate. Its funny that life sometimes stops bad habits. When a gambler is broke, he must reflect. I've seen this happen; its unpleasant but potentially revolutionary. Rebuilding life after addiction is difficult, sometimes wrought with regret and the need to piece together a fractured life. Definitely agree on preventive. Those at risk of addiction should avoid gambling. Still, isnt self-control and awareness just as important? Not all gamblers become addicted. You must know your boundaries, be disciplined, and view gambling as fun, not a way out of life. We shouldt ban gambling, but we can promote responsible and healthy play. Gamblers need judgment-free online and offline support. Sharing experiences, raising awareness, and providing self-help resources are crucial. Promoting healthy gambling while recognizing addiction is key. This strategy helps responsible gamblers and protects individuals who may be at risk while gambling.

There are a lot of people who stopped too, so it is not like it's unheard of before, it is not like we have never seen anyone who has done badly and then not stop, we have seen some that managed to stop too. Obviously there are some addicts that goes worse and worse, even go as far as committing crimes to get some money to keep gambling, even hurt others to get some money and do some more. However, I have seen also plenty of people who lost all their money, and then they ended up being even worse, I feel like that should be the most important part of the deal as well. I get that it's bad to get addicted, but it is also even more important if you could get rid of your addiction, it makes for a great story and should be appreciated.

~ I think real fun is when you can get a thrill but without any loss or risk of losing something, I think the idea of gambling just for fun is nothing more than a statement that will keep someone from overreacting, meaning limiting expectations by thinking that it's all just fun so as not to focus too much on winning. However we must agree that gambling is a risky activity, only winning and losing will happen at the end, even if you only put a small amount but there is still an element of potential loss.
I agree with that, because if we have too high expectations of gambling, then this will only lead us to the worst thing we can face in gambling which is addiction and significant losses. And I can't deny that sometimes when I gamble, there is a great expectation that gambling can bring me profits and gambling can increase my wealth in a short time. Gambling for a group is quite a good thing and can at least prevent us from bad behavior when gambling and can also prevent us from feeling addicted to gambling itself. but then again sometimes we like to feel a little disappointed and regret when we lose, so that in the end at the end of the game we don't get pleasure but just the opposite. Any form of addiction isnt really that too easy for us to quit specially if you've been dealing with it for a long time but its not something that would really be impossible. It would really be just that depending on a certain individual if they would really be that serious on quitting up gambling for good or anything that they are currently dealing with. This is why this situation would really be that depending in a certain individual because self control level will really be that differ into each other and this is why it would really be that always best that you should really be that sensible on the things that you are doing. If you do find yourself that impulsive towards gambling then it would really be a huge problem on your part.
When a person intends to end his gambling activities, then he must not only leave the casino and no longer visit it, but also must leave his environment or social circle whose associations are only filled with gambling. Quitting gambling is not an easy thing to do.

That is the famous rock-bottom, and while many of those that got addicted need to reach that stage in order to begin to think about their lives and what they have done with it, those which have reached that stage have very low chances of ever fixing their lives, as by that time it is very likely they have taken decisions which cannot be taken back anymore, like getting in massive debt, committing crimes or losing their family, and any attempt to try fix their life will take them decades of constant effort at best to get the results they are looking for.
