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

[Fredomago]

If an addict lives with me, I would make him a bet he cant fulfil or win I will try to trick him with "I bet you will able not to gamble for half a year" (actually any long period would do, but the longer the better). Will announce a solid price and wait to see how he will try to self cure. This might sound silly, but I think this might be helpful and do the trick. And I will repeat that few times. The effect will be unnoticeable from first glance, but it will at least train that person for self control.

You may try to trick him with such challenge but he can trick you back by pretending to not gambling at all but in fact he is still gambling because you cant monitor him 24/7 even for a day.
How will you know that he is not gambling at all, because it is impossible if you can control his money as it is something personal/privacy.
Addicted gamblers will not care about such challenge unless you offer something really huge (an amount that he never own/won before) if he can do the challenge.

Exactly,  an addicted gambler can also trick you while trying tricking them, they have all the lies inside them  as the only thing matters is to gamble,  and the way you are trying attempt helping them will be seen as option that will allow them to continue what they want, still gamble even the condition is not do so, at the end of the time frame in case they managed to win they can just take your money and go back to whatever type of gambling that they involve,  as simple as that since they knew that you are serious in giving them the reward else, they will not agree if they know that you don't have that seriousness inside you 😉

And it is really that hard to detect out if ever they would really be tending up to lie something or trying out to deny even if you have noticed it out. This is why on the time that they would really be doing it
then they would really be trying their best on not to be caught or something that could be seeing their odd movement or behavior or whatever it would be.We do only see those things
when its already too late on which the damage has already been done and this is something that should really be stopped. It would be a normal act or approach that you would really be helping
them as much as possible specially if its a family member.

In as much as option 2 wouldn’t work, I think you could improve option 1 to work better.

same as what I am thinking and we can conjoin those 2 for better outcome.

If you say conjoin then I don’t think we have the like thoughts on this. I clearly don’t agree with option 2 because you don’t force people out of an addiction. It is never done anywhere that I know of. In health, when it comes to people who smoke, they slowly reduce their consumption till it’s all gone. Asides that, I personally don’t like harsh approaches to such things. People would listen and understand better if you are subtle while explaining the effects they could face in the long run.

Nice idea! Showing them a someone who ruined by gambling might give them an intrusive thoughts once they are alone, or maybe it will help them to think and to admit that they are a gambling addict. Usually, An addict person always deny to theirselves that they are having an addiction because they knew in themselves that before they started gambling, they told themselves that they would not be like other people whose lives were ruined by gambling. They are usually indenial but if you ever show them or give them an example, that will really make them think.

Nice idea indeed! It is like showing a chain smoker a pack of cigarette where they drew and wrote horrible things about smoking, he will laugh at you and told you that he saw and read those things before opening the packet to take a stick. That is how strong addiction can be. Until an addicted gambler come to the realization that the addiction is a problem that he need to solve, all efforts at stopping him will not produce the desired result. One of the fastest way out of addiction is sense of responsibilities. One way of achieving this is if the gambler is single, advice him or her to get married, this way responsibility can lead to a slow down in gambling. Apart from this, my effort will go more into making the gambler know that there is a problem and when that is established, we can start looking for solutions.

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.
 
What do you think?

The best is to show them love and care so that they would know that they are not left behind. This is a practical way to deal with something that is addictive to gamble. We don't need to do what we make them to be angry or provoke their spirit and if things get worse, they might decide to move out of the house if the fund is available to they can play more bets and try their luck. If we found out that such methof is myt yielding any positive results, inviting more people to help in this situation would be another approach maybe to be very harsh as such person with strict hands so they can adapt to new chances.

You know, pretending no to gamble is already a 1% win towards victory. As you have already done a minimum of your plan - you have decreased the amount of gambling in addicted persons life. That is a first step. This is already a win, when persons gambles daily, but now starts to gamble only 2-3 times a week, and do it secretly. This is already an improvement. And the trick is to lure gambler in this challenge with a unbelievable prize. I cant name something right away, as the solid prize is individual for everyone. And again, its no use to help addicted person unless he wants that help. I would no go first and force gambler for such a challenge. We should come together with him that there is a problem and he needs help, and than run that challenge. He would be interested in getting cured, rather than to trick me.

Yeah, it would be better if they steal our money and everything they can to bet. They don`t need love - they must understand that the result they have is only the result of their actions and nobody will help them until they change their habits. Don`t waste time and money trying to help in such a way.

Yes, maybe this could help reduce his daily activities a little which he usually uses for gambling, but now he has to pretend and use his gambling not as often as usual and slowly he is starting to get used to not gambling and he may not become addicted to gambling. But if a gambler does a challenge only at times like that so that they get a prize then when they have done it and can stop gambling but this is not because of the intention to stop but because they want a prize and a challenge and when the time is up they will return to being a gambling addict so In my opinion, this option is not very effective for stopping the addiction.

It's true that there's no point in helping someone who is addicted to gambling if it's someone else, but if they were related to us, would we just keep quiet without helping them?
I also don't care about other people who are addicted to it because it is their his own business and their money too, but if it concerns family or relatives I will definitely help them because gambling addiction sometimes involves the good name of the family and the impact is very big if the addiction is not treated immediately and the family will be affected it will be a loss someday, therefore it is better to prevent things that might be even worse.

You have to start from the little. Gambling addiction is formed during ages. It can be dropped like it nothing. Person can be cured from it after a day of resisting gambling. What I advice are just first and tiny steps to recovery. Maybe this wont even help; I dont know, I am not an expert in antigambling addiction. But with what and I suggest, this would help addicted person to at least try. Because you cant force him to stop gambling, and you cant help him if he dont want to.

Of course, things are like this, an addicted player usually the first thing they do is to know how to be and how to treat others, that they become stubborn, curmudgeonly and what can happen, because only in their environment is games, playing, betting, and if they have probably lost money, they may be in a very bad mood and they don't want anyone to tell them anything, much less to stop doing that activity, that's why getting into an addict It is very delicate, you have to enter with great care and tact because they can be very Irritable, I study the person closely and I will start to tell him if he can accompany me to do a sport or something, but first try to get the person out of the way, If you accept well, if not, then insist in other even gentler ways, because as I said, they are very irritable and can cause discomfort or more anger, because firstly they will be losing money , secondly they are stressed because they cannot recover it and thirdly they are people. Maybe they don't know where to get more loans, believers.

For an addict the trick is to know how to get in, letting the addiction go away on its own does not work all the time, sometimes an addicted person decides to take their own life because they do not see any other way to get out of their problem and That is theMost viable way out for them , addiction blinds them, that is why you have to know how to have so much with them.

That's right, it's true that someone who is addicted will probably not care about anything else apart from gambling, because that's what dominates their mind the most, playing, betting and gambling is all they think about. and it is clear that if they are addicted then they will experience a change in attitude and become stubborn, when someone tries to advise them that gambling is wrong, but with those who are already addicted they will ignore it and what is worse is that they will probably argue with the person who advised them. In my opinion, those who are addicted to gambling will easily get angry and emotional, because their desire from gambling is to win, whereas winning is very difficult to get, and with more frequent defeats it can make them stressed which will confuse their own feelings and the stress they cause. they experienced that it would be difficult to recover.

The addiction will disappear if they themselves realize that excessive gambling only harms them. for those who are already under severe stress and cannot withstand the pressure caused by their own actions, it is possible that they could end their life, but that is not the solution, because it will not solve everything. We should be aware that when we dare to act, we should have the courage to take responsibility. Many only dare to act but cannot solve the problems that occur.

Every time I can, I recommend that an addicted person do sports, because sports will make the person get tired and have to rest, sleep, that is time to recover, take a break, a rest, the normal thing that the body asks for.

This is one of the things that may be the most common and cheapest to do, but of course this is something that we must have a lot of discipline, even for Uranus we have to have a lot of discipline, for that reason it is because the game, everything it has What to do with casinos is delicate, sometimes we as people have to be aware of what we are going to do.

If they can come to their senses then they will do their best to leave their addiction, whether it's exercising as you said or doing other things that are more beneficial.

Of course, if they really want to leave their gambling addiction, they must be disciplined in carrying out their daily activities, so that they are not easily attracted to gambling again. because currently there is a lot of online gambling going on, of course there are people in their environment who are also addicted to gambling, and when they win, this is the test, they have to be able to restrain themselves so as not to be attracted by other people who win from gambling. If they are interested in gambling again, it is likely that their efforts will fail and they will return to gambling even more aggressively. For those who are addicted, it won't be easy to get out of this detrimental cycle, because they only think about winning so they probably won't be able to get out of it easily.

People adapt to treatment differently and addiction, like gambling, doesn't have an adequate healing method for everyone. No theory, whatsoever, have learned deeply on gambling addiction and figured a method to heal an addicted player, regardless of his compliance to treatment. Here, unlike other sickness, the player has to comply to treatment. If he doesn't want to get healed, then all effort is a waste, he wouldn't. This triples the difficulty of healing a gambling addicted person. Addicts don't control the impulse to choose carefully what they want.

Same mistake they make while gambling, not knowing when to stop, gambling recklessly, etc., also affects their life decisions. He may not accept the responsibility that is on him, and still, endanger the safety of his home. I think before moving forward to your idea, a good one, the player need to be free from addiction. Giving him a family, he doesn't want can move his addiction from bad to worse.  I think everyone should decide about what they want in life. While we sit back and watch them execute their choices. Whenever, they need help, being there for their safety will be acknowledged.

Of course, if they really want to leave their gambling addiction, they must be disciplined in carrying out their daily activities, so that they are not easily attracted to gambling again. because currently there is a lot of online gambling going on, of course there are people in their environment who are also addicted to gambling, and when they win, this is the test, they have to be able to restrain themselves so as not to be attracted by other people who win from gambling. If they are interested in gambling again, it is likely that their efforts will fail and they will return to gambling even more aggressively. For those who are addicted, it won't be easy to get out of this detrimental cycle, because they only think about winning so they probably won't be able to get out of it easily.

Yes, basically the active player only thinks about winning and winning, sometimes he does not care about what he can lose, he is only interested in playing to win and win back, then that becomes a vicious circle because the player will only focus on playing. and win as it is, therefore sometimes that is not possible, and if it is not possible, other things have to be done, what is recommended is to leave it, but since it will not leave that, what you have to do is take urgent measures One of them is that the person who bets a lot will try to get him to entertain himself in another activity, make him leave the casino a little so that he can dedicate himself to something else, like playing sports, so that he gets tired, so that his body gets tired. , but that is difficult, also the fact that you accept that you have an orbelm that can sometimes be the most difficult, as long as you do not accept it, the person will continue to spend, become decapitated and lose as time passes.

So that's the kind of disorder that an addict can make, but what can be the chances of being cured? The first thing to do is to accept that you have the problem , to be able to act, as long as you do not accept it, you will be lost, the same person has to realize that they are falling into a difficult hole to get out of, at the moment they know From that problem, it is simple, you start taking measures, the best thing is to go to a psychologist, or psychiatrist, depending on what the person has, if they are addicted in an advanced way, then other things can be done to help, but the first thing is professional help.

[Litzki1990]

People who are addicted to something usually want some distance from normal life. They try to keep their distance from those of us who live normal lives and prefer to spend time with people who are in their nature. If it's someone I know or a family member of course I will try to help him but if someone I don't know does this then it's hard for me to help him. Whenever I go to help him with these things, he will come and try to follow my ways without giving importance to my issues. If my friendly neighbor lives like this, I will try to do what I need to do to bring him back to a normal life. I will try to bag the free time with him and try to keep him busy in various sports besides taking him for walks so that he will slowly forget his bad deeds from his brain.

Forget yelling and finger-pointing. Instead, have a chill conversation. Let them know you care and want to help them beat this gambling thing. Try to see things from their perspective. What's pushing them to gamble? Maybe they're stressed, bored, or something else is going on. By understanding them better, you can offer support without the judgment.

Loving someone doesn't mean letting them keep digging a hole. Set some clear ground rules, like not lending them cash or rescuing them from gambling debts. It's tough love, but it shows you care and want them to get back on their feet. You can't fix everything yourself. A therapist can help them unpack the reasons behind the gambling and teach them how to deal with cravings. Find some treatment options and nudge them towards getting professional help. Getting better isn't always a straight line. There might be bumps in the road. Don't freak out! Be there for them, remind them of the progress they've made, and help them get back on track.

Breaking the addiction hinges on the gambler themself recognizing the problem.  We can offer guidance, but ultimately, the desire to change has to come from within.  It's like that moment you realize you've been mindlessly scrolling social media for hours – that spark of awareness is crucial.

Lectures and ultimatums rarely work with addiction.  Imagine yelling at someone to stop eating cake when they're in the throes of a sugar rush.  Not effective.  Instead, compassionate support can be a powerful tool.  Listen without judgment, offer resources, and be a source of strength, not shame.

We can't control the addict's choices, but we can be a safety net.  Maybe it's helping them set limits on spending, accompanying them to therapy sessions, or simply being a listening ear.  Every bit of support makes a difference.

If an addict lives with me, I would make him a bet he cant fulfil or win I will try to trick him with "I bet you will able not to gamble for half a year" (actually any long period would do, but the longer the better). Will announce a solid price and wait to see how he will try to self cure. This might sound silly, but I think this might be helpful and do the trick. And I will repeat that few times. The effect will be unnoticeable from first glance, but it will at least train that person for self control.

You may try to trick him with such challenge but he can trick you back by pretending to not gambling at all but in fact he is still gambling because you cant monitor him 24/7 even for a day.
How will you know that he is not gambling at all, because it is impossible if you can control his money as it is something personal/privacy.
Addicted gamblers will not care about such challenge unless you offer something really huge (an amount that he never own/won before) if he can do the challenge.

I think even a large stake wouldn't make them self-cure and as you said, they will most probably trick you instead by gambling when there is no one around using accounts that they hide and no one can know whether they did it or not. So I agree that such tricks or challenges would barely work on addicted gamblers. Such a thing might work like a charm on someone who is just getting addicted and isn't completely in it yet.

If one offers a huge sum to an addicted gambler not to gamble for a certain amount of time, they will surely find a way to cheat the challenger unless the person challenging them finds a way to have some surveillance over the gambler at all times so that they don't get to cheat.

In my opinion, people who are addicted to gambling will of course only think about gambling and winning, they tend not to care about what happens, in the end of winning or losing they will continue to gamble, because thinking about gambling is a must because they are addicted to gambling. What you say is correct, of course what you have to do is leave it, that can reduce the problem, but you also have to look at whether or not the main perpetrators are able to accept suggestions and directions from us, of course we as friends or even family want the best, when When a problem comes and befalls it must be resolved. forcing them to do other things that are more useful and more reasonable might be possible, but returning to the main actor, he must be able to receive direction from us, and in my opinion the key is in awareness, they must have their own awareness first, with I think they can receive direction from other people. because someone who is addicted to gambling will of course not be able to easily accept advice and input as well as direction from other people, even their family.

As I have said, the main perpetrator must first be able to realize on their own that they already have a serious problem, and only then can we take action to encourage and support them so they can recover from their addiction. If indeed they have self-awareness, it is possible that they will also try to recover in their own way, as you said, by consulting a psychologist, that might be one way that can be done so that they can recover. In my opinion, even if you get help from a professional, it's useless if they don't have their own awareness. but what you say makes sense too.
