If a addict lives within, which method would you choose to help them

[Fatunad]

As a member of a family and there is a gambling addict within, which method do you think it's the best to rip off the addict from your family member?

1. Talk to them and don't leave their side for too long, show them some love and make sure they don't have anything to do with gambling ever again, be soft and gentle with them.

2. Be harsh about it, force them to quit, let them know that gambling isn't this safe, bounce on them all the time because you love them, don't go any soft on them, because been soft won't make them see reasons why it's bad to be a gambling addict.

Which do you think it's best? Some people do think that been soft and gentle will be more effective and some people think that been harder on them is the real love here, they need to make them stop by force.

It depends on the level of addiction that a gambler is currently experiencing with.

If you think that a person's addiction is still on the level of being tolerable and manageable, you can consider being harsh as they will still understand and realize what's going on after being pounded with a harsh action towards their gambling addiction.

But if you think that a person is currently in a state that you can consider as critical level and needs immediate help, talk to them softly and nicely as much as you can. Putting harsh action on those people on that critical level state might trigger their eagerness to just continue gambling since they will feel they are left out.

Yes,it wouldnt really be that still on the sense that it on alerting but its not that bad to make out those kind of advises or telling them about possibilities of addiction. Yes, they might get that
offended whenever you might be saying up those words but at least you had made out some warnings and advises on which they cant blame you out that you didnt tell them specially if the said person is really that
inside the family then it would really be that just right that you should really be in concern with your loved ones situation since we know that gambling addiction could really give out such impact.

For other people who arent close to us then for sure we wont really be showing any care for them but for those who are close to us or loved ones then its normal that we would really be
having a different approach. There are ones who are really that too in concern with other peoples conditions and there are ones who dont really care.
So its up to you in the end of the day on how you would really be telling them up.

There are a lot of options you can do but not this. Forcing a person to quit gambling where they are addicted will never make you achieve the goal of stopping them. There should be the right process to conduct to make them stop without forcing them. The right thing to do is to help them by making them realize the important things they need to do or prioritize instead of spending all their time being addicted to gambling. Forcing them will only make them think to spend more time gambling and make them more addicted than their current situation until they are no longer able to help.

i also think that forcing someone not to gamble is the same as making them even angrier and will actually fight us. the approach taken should be with understanding and empathy, where we should be able to advise them face to face. if they still resist in the process, give him more advice and don't allow him to gamble more than he can afford. because stones that are dripped with water will also change shape, like people who are addicted, if we continue to give advice and empathize with them, maybe it will help them to soften and reduce the intensity of their gambling.

A gambling addict always think he would make it through gambling despite his or her loses, the idea is that one day will be their day. so to help such people as a member I think is to draw them closer show them some love so they will have interest to what ever ought to say to them. let them know that it's not as they think, give them a constructive reason why they have to leave it because gambling is a thing of 50/50 chance. many people are in mess today because of gambling

Even if he lose, he will hard to pass the gambling because he wants to retur to the gambling to recover his losses. Other family members need to get closer to that gambling addict and try to show their good intention to help the addict. If the addict can see that their family member really wants to help the addicts, he will try to open himself and grab their hands. Together, they will try to solve his gambling addiction without hesitant because they are one big family that want to help each other.

If his family members can show their empathy to the addict, he will want to listen what his family members tell and follow it because that gives a good for him. Yes, it needs patience to help the addict to solve his problem but it's worth doing that as the addict will see how strong their bonds and not thinking about what he already did because his family wants to help him to solve his gambling addiction.

Love can many problems and the kind of love we receive from our closed ones forces us to obey what they say.
If a gambler is becoming addicted to gambling then only their loved ones can solve this problem.
Going to rehabs can help but staying with family heals better.

Before taking action, we should determine first the overall status of that person.

Is he still in his normal self when being talked with?
Is he responding politely and kindly to your statements?
Is he still acting like the person you know from the start?

Giving harsh advice should only be considered depending on how close you are to that person.

Not all relatives are close to each other and open on any issues to discuss.

[Unbunplease]

It is very difficult to fight game addiction. In my opinion, it is necessary to find some alternative for a person - for example, you need to take him out to nature, where there is no access to the Internet, at least for 2-3 weeks. It is also necessary to offer sports activities, trips to cultural events, blogging (if a gamer starts blogging, his addiction will even pay off).

Those things wont be hard if the addicted person would be inside the family on which it has been mentioned but if not then it would really be needing up to assess those questions first beforehand.
If it turns out that you would really be having a friend that have some gambling problems then it would be something that normal as a friend on giving out those advises of course
but it wont really be that enough if that certain person wont really be that realizing his mistakes because this is where things turns out to be hard when that someone
doesnt really have the plans on quitting on the first place and this is something that you should really be considering out first whether you should continue on reaching on him or not.

1. Talk to them and don't leave their side for too long, show them some love and make sure they don't have anything to do with gambling ever again, be soft and gentle with them.

I think this is just the best approach to tackle that, you have to tell them the disadvantages of gambling addiction and give them reasons why they should stop it. Tell them things that will make them lose interest in gambling, but if you are planning to force them, then you won’t be able to achieve any result. All that will happen is that they will be gambling, but they will make it hidden, which is not going to solve the problem. If you want to stop an addicted gambler from gambling, first you should make them lose interest in gambling, they should have the mindset to stop gambling, then make sure you start doing things that will shift their attention away from gambling, spend time with them, and do things that will always make them happy.

i also think that forcing someone not to gamble is the same as making them even angrier and will actually fight us. the approach taken should be with understanding and empathy, where we should be able to advise them face to face. if they still resist in the process, give him more advice and don't allow him to gamble more than he can afford. because stones that are dripped with water will also change shape, like people who are addicted, if we continue to give advice and empathize with them, maybe it will help them to soften and reduce the intensity of their gambling.

Approaching someone with a forceful move in order to stop them from gambling is a very wrong move to ever start with because asides gambling, generally if you want to stop someone from doing something, using force will literally do more harm than good as some of such person will become very defensive or turn it into a challenge to see what you are capable of doing to them if they don't  quit gambling or anything which you are trying to get them to stop doing.

Approach is a very important factor when it comes to helping someone quit that which you see and feel is doing them more harm than good, if you have got the best approach, I'm very sure you can get them to quit that which you intend they quit with like little or no stress because such person will give a listening ear and some taughts if the approach is such that they can real relate with well enough , applying empathy just like did mentioned is actually very effective,. because by such, the person understands that you are very much concerned about their well being and that's why you had brought up the fact that you would want the to quit and then they can put into consideration your suggestions to quitting but a wrong approach will give wrong results a d that which you intended cannot be achieved.

Completely agree.. Attempting to force someone to stop gambling without understanding their underlying motivations and struggles is likely to provoke resistance and potentially exacerbate the situation. Empathy and a non-judgmental approach are essential in helping individuals with gambling addiction. Face-to-face conversations allows for a deeper understanding of the gambler's challenges and provides an opportunity to offer support and guidance.

We can help prevent them from falling deeper into addiction by offering advice and practical assistance, such as setting limits on gambling activities. Compassionate support consistently can gradually influence a person's behavior and mindset that can lead to positive changes over time. It's crucial to persist in our efforts to help them, even if progress seems slow, because every small step forward is a victory in the battle against addiction.

There are many professional gamblers living around me and I can't misbehave with them because by misbehaving with them I can't stop them from this gambling addiction but if I can maintain a cooperative and friendly relationship with them I can definitely get better feedback from them.
Sometimes the gambler's family members hang out with my family members and I try to maintain a good social relationship with them. Sometimes I try to solve the financial problems of the family members of those gamblers. I cannot socially misbehave with gambling family members as it is not in the social code to misbehave with them.

Gambling addiction is just a very bad thing, and anyone who is addicted needs their family and friends support more than ever because it's not easy for them to pull out of it alone. Those who are close to them are the ones who can talk them out of it, stay close to them, and distract them from gambling. 
 
But another thing about some gambling addicts that makes it difficult to help them is that most of them don't even agree to the fact that they are addicted. Even when you point it out to them, they still argue that they are still on their normal gambling behaviour, which makes it harder for such people to learn and be corrected.

The gambling addicted person never try to recover from the gambling site,because they had face some big winning in the gambling site after a loss.But the important one is the gambler will not withdraw the funds from the gambling site,mostly they get greedy in making money in the gambling site.Because the gambling site also allow the gamblers to make money in the gambling site,if they really ready to understand the game.The gambler should try to withdraw the funds to their bank wallet after the winning was completed,because the next game will blast the gambler winning money in the gambling site.The gambler should not get more temptation to play the more game in the gambling site,because mostly the gamblers get huge temptation for the next game in the gambling site.So better gamblers withdraw funds after big win and go to the movie to have some fun.This will help the gamblers to get away from the gambling addiction.

How are you solving the financial problems of the family members of the those gamblers? Are you suggesting them what to do or lending them money? To be honest, hard to meddle someone else's financial troubles. So wondering here what financial actions are you offering to their families?

It is very difficult to fight game addiction. In my opinion, it is necessary to find some alternative for a person - for example, you need to take him out to nature, where there is no access to the Internet, at least for 2-3 weeks. It is also necessary to offer sports activities, trips to cultural events, blogging (if a gamer starts blogging, his addiction will even pay off).

I believe, it is better to understand first why he is being addicted in gambling. Because finding the reason why he's into this activity will give you insights on how to help the gambler to possibly get out of the situation. Understand his reasonings and all, will help you assist him address his dilemma in gambling.

What do you think?

The first thing you noted is the best approach to follow in other to help a gambling addict, for you to get an addicted gambler into talking terms you must show them love and make them understand the reason why they should quit gambling totally since is not good for them, talking to an addicted gambler in a hard manner won't solve the problem instead it will worsen matter, the gambler will see you as an enemy but if you approach him in a light manner he may see reason with you, addiction is not something we can stop by force, techniques needs to be applied in other to get it right if not the situation will worsened.

[fullhdpixel]

Making someone quit? Thats not the solution, its a recipe for disaster. We understand addiction's mechanism, right? The why, not the gambling, matters. You believe pulling them away from the tables helps, but you're actually driving them deeper into the abyss. They need to realize the repercussions of their behavior, but they also need a hand to draw them back, not a push down the rabbit hole.

Show them what they're missing and sacrificing. Relationships, health, future. This is about life choices, not gambling. One can lead a horse to water, but not make it drink. The same applies. Tools, help, and alternatives are available, but true change? From within. They must want it and understand the stakes. You should focus on that, pal.

That's probably the better way to solve such a problem because forcing isn't a solution as the gambler might stop gambling in front of the people who are forcing him to stop gambling but that wouldn't make them leave it and he will keep doing it on the back when there is no one around because, of course, you can't isolate them and give them no basic facilities at all as that isn't a way to deal with the situation.

So, people around the person who is addicted to gambling should handle the situation with wisdom and calmness instead of getting angry, scolding the addict, and forcing them to stop gambling because that isn't going to work but it will make the matter worse.

Love can many problems and the kind of love we receive from our closed ones forces us to obey what they say.
If a gambler is becoming addicted to gambling then only their loved ones can solve this problem.
Going to rehabs can help but staying with family heals better.

Too much loves will kill you
The important think is the addicted can open their minds and accept the help from people around them, including their family members or people that they loved. If they can show their support to the addict, he will see that he is not alone to solve his problem because his closed ones will help him and always support him. They will go to the rehabilitation with the addict and search the right method to heal the addiction. Love, support, and effort will awaken the addict to see that he still has a chance to recover from his gambling addiction.

[bitvalak]

Option number 2 for me is the best way. Forcing them to stop will make them think logically and in the end they will make their choice.
If it uses a gentle approach, it will not be able to enter into its logic and assume we are just delaying it to stop gambling. No matter how rude it is, we definitely still care about the addiction he is experiencing.

[LUCKMCFLY]

There are many people who believe that things work out the wrong way, but I think that treating them badly is not the solution, because things can basically turn out very badly for those who want to do it that way. I think that now people They have to take things more calmly, talk and let it be seen that talking things turn out better, agreements are reached, treating badly I believe that what a person is going to cause is trauma and what they have from the addiction is enough And well, it is not fair and something that people should see, some do not consider it, but come on, if some person is somewhat volatile in their decisions, then they are a person who cannot be pulled hard or forced, because we do not know what It is or will be the reaction, all people are not equal.

You must also consider the type of personality of each person , it is Different to treat a Person with a strong temperament than a Person with a soft temperament, all this has to be done with great tact and well to get out of all this you have to always consider the help of a professional, we as normal people without this type of studies do not know what damage we can cause to people who are in an addiction.

An addict has a very clear thought about what should be done, how they are going to do it and what they can do to get more money and to get more ways to play, that is obvious but it is considered that things like this have to be treated very hard. tact, in that aspect it would be the most correct decision to make, as a person who is not a professional in psychology the most you can give is general advice, because we do not know or understand how they handle problems, stress and pressure. people.

When option 1 didnt work then you would be coming up for option 2 and if it doesnt work then any options should be used but if it turns out that its useless then there's nothing we can do about it but to accept that they are really pushing up the things that they do have in mind but if we are dealing with someone whose in our family then it would really be just that right that we should really be that in concern on helping
them because we do know that full risks and danger of gambling addiction on which it is something that shouldnt really be ignored about because once things become worst then we do know on what would be
the potential effects or damage into someone. This is why it would really be that best that we should really be attentive whenever we do see someone who do have this kind of problem and also with
every problems that arises.

Most of the time it works but in some cases addicted gambler use that compassion to abuse those people who are caring with them, they keep doing the same thing even how hard you try to talk and make them realize the bad side effects of gambling, if you are living inside the same house chances that you already knows what kind of an approach to use, though personally, I'll go with the mild and cool conversation and keep trying to let them feel that they are important and there are many other  things in life that they can focus instead of wasting time and money inside gambling.
