A call to self-examining our gambling habit.

[dunfida]

As gambler when last did you self-examine your gambling habit to create that awareness based on how you are gambling in order for you to be quite sure if you're within a considerable or an acceptable range of a gambling habit that is void of addiction or the tendencies of gambling addiction.

I think if gamblers could take certain step in setting up regular self examining question towards themself it will be helpful to them in their gambling life not to ignorantly be harbouring a gambling addiction or compulsive gambling lifestyle. Quite a number of gamblers are nursing an addictive gambling habit without knowing and for them their gambling life is normal but if they should  genuinely scrutinize or put their habit to test it is possible they could find varied errors to correct and be right on track again.

Don't you think so?

When you are really that still spending the amount on which you can afford to lose and didnt able to compromise your life savings then you are really just that actually doing fine.
People do really need to be wary on the actions that they are taking whether they are really that still on the right path or already that been lost of track. Whenever you've seen that you are
already spending on the amount on which you cant afford to lose then it would be always best to have that kind of limit or moderation so that you wont really be making yourself that put up on huge trouble.

The only thing that you should really be mindful about is on that you should really be nothing letting yourself lose too much money. Dont compromise your life savings.
Dont compromise your emergency funds. Dont compromise those amount which are intended for investment.
You would be finding yourself on such great trouble if you are really that irresponsible with your actions.

Like always, almost all the time, I have always see gambling like a burning fire, if you place your hands on it for too long you will get burnt, so you don't want to place your hands on it for a long time.

Gamble and get out, risk what you can afford to lose and stand by the amount, put your mind on reliable source of income, and think about learning new skills that will increase your monthly source of income, I strongly believe that this is the right way to become a gambler.

There is actually nothing that gambling owe anyone, if you like gamble for a 100s of time and lose every thing, why should gambling care? The way it's orchestrated already was never in favour to gamblers, what we seek is almost impossible, so its clear that gambling isn't reliable, it is not a source of income and it's not an investment.

We must control our gambling activity so we don't get burns by the fire of playing gambling. We don't have to places our hands for a long time to playing gambling because playing gambling is just for fun and we must thinks that gambling is not a source of income. We must focus on the fun and not trying to making money because that's not easy as many gamblers already lose much money because they wanted to win from their favorites gambling games. We must allocated the money we can afford and always sticking to the rules that we makes before so we don't have to gets many problems like the other gamblers. It's better you search for the other ways to make money and that's not from gambling because gambling is just for fun in our spare time. If we can manage our gambling activity with right, we will enjoy gambling as a fun activity and will not spends too much money to chased the win.

I think it's hard to self examine because a gambler is always chasing losses. His thought process is just to recover the money lost.
So the chances of him self examining his gambling addiction becomes very low since he would fine every chance to play more and recover the losses.
There should be some kind of strategy so that addicted people has to forcefully self-examine their gambling habits.
Only then, we can potentially see some positive results out of it.

Addicted gambler is beyond saving and not applicable to this matter. I believe OP is addressing this topic to those regular gambler that is still not addicted since you can self-examine your gambling habit whenever you lose some so that you can develop a strategy or practice to control your gambling or to improve your strategy so that you can’t be tempted to play more when losing.

I’m always doing this naturally whenever I loss since I’m always thinking where did I go wrong for my game turn to lose and most of the time I conclude it’s due to greediness on chasing huge win on a short period of time.

Almost every gambler would be losing money at the end of their games and so thinking of another strategy would be just a waste of time.
At the end, we are bound to lose our money because we cannot win against the casino due to their house edge.
So instead of trying another strategy and playing again and again chasing the losses you should just accept your losses.
That would be a better strateg inorder to not get addicted to gambling.

Exactly, meaning that no matter how much you think of ways such as looking for a strategy that you think can increase your chances of winning still in the end the results of the session sometimes still more disappointing than what you expected, and as you say here that maybe more precisely it will just waste your time. On the other hand for me honestly I always believe that gambling is always about luck or simply means that you will win when you are really lucky and nothing more than that.

With this mindset I don't have to be busy thinking about various ways such as looking for strategies to win bets, honestly I used to be a gambler like that but in the end I thought that it was an action that would only waste time, and finally I gambled according to my instincts and feelings. One thing that makes me not too serious in gambling because I understand that gambling is completely not a place to earn, so with this kind of thinking I don't have to think of all the ways just to win because if I'm lucky then the victory will come by itself. For me a good and smart strategy is when you are able to manage the money for your gambling allocation which leads to preventive measures so that you don't lose your balance due to the wrong approach to gambling.

Accepting losses as inevitable without attempting to adjust the approach can be detrimental, because most gamblers will experience losses over time due to the inherent advantage held by the casino. The reality of the house edge is crucial in understanding the long-term probabilities of winning. This doesn't mean that all strategies are futile or that there's no room for improvement in the approach to gambling.

The odds may be stacked against gamblers, certain strategies, such as bankroll management and selective betting, can help mitigate losses and potentially increase the chances of walking away with some winnings. Accepting losses without reflection or attempting to adjust the strategy can lead to a defeatist mindset and perpetuate a cycle of addictive behavior. Gamblers should just have mentality to simply accept losses as inevitable. That wont risk normalizing excessive gambling and undermining efforts to promote responsible gambling practices. A culture of responsible gambling and approaching gambling with mindfulness and moderation can help mitigate the negative impacts of excessive gambling and foster healthier attitudes towards gaming and chance.

I like the playing with the instincts part because gambling is more fun when your instincts are right.
When you lose a game you knew you were going to lose it but when your instincts are right and you win the game then the feeling is different.
It hits hard within yourself to be honest. I like it that way instead of looking for more strategies.

It is something that should be done so you know when you’re stepping out of line, but it’s not the case of what is done because people get drowned in the act if gambling that all they ever think is how to stake bigger so they make bigger. They may not even be subconsciously doing it, some people know that the habit is growing in them but the spirit of money overshadows the thought and they keep gambling anyway. 

I think that even without a proper examination, it is still possible for us to identify if we are already stepping out of the line or not by basing only on our actions. It is easy to an examination but the hard part is doing a measure to combat our complications once we are positive about it. Not all are rich to have a big capital and to stake more but this is not only the way to earn big.

We can also get them even if our capital is only small and especially if we are playing long enough which can only be achieved by betting minimal amounts, however this still can make the gambler to play frequently, so their small expenses can still add up to a bigger one.

Fixing the problem after finding it is the exact difficult part. Many people who are still constantly gambling despite their addiction know they have the problem but just don’t know how to stop. Betting with minimal amounts may work but, I think that a combination of different strategies will result to a more solid result.

Control how much you gamble per time, how much you gamble in total, how long you spend gambling, find a job that pays well, have someone watch your back; someone you can be accountable to, if you ever cross the line. These could really help.

Control how much you gamble per time, how much you gamble in total, how long you spend gambling, find a job that pays well, have someone watch your back; someone you can be accountable to, if you ever cross the line. These could really help.

These are helpful when you're stable and all you have to do is examining whether you're gambling with a decent percentage of your salary that you might probably not notice it. Because there are stable jobs that pays well and those gamblers that are into it have the same thinking that they're going to receive their salary soon so what they do is they're spending as much as they can and also living beyond their means that includes a lot of gambling budget that they can afford based on them. But if they're going to compute and calculate how much they're dedicated on it is that they're putting a lot of money that they can't afford to lose. The justification is there and they'd just say that they can gamble with any amount because soon, they're going to receive again the salary and that's the recovery plan that they have in their minds.

But little did they know that a habit is being formed with that mindset and it's giving them the hard time to recover not with their losses but from that mentality because it's going to stay on them forever until they notice and realizes that they need to change their habits. Because if they're not going to change their habits and they decline to examine themselves then one thing is for sure that they're aware of their habits and they don't want to let other people know dictate what they don't want to hear and that is because that they're likely gambling addicts already.

The first step of solving a problem is always a phase of recognizing the problem. Combining various strategies to tackle different aspects of the addiction can lead to more robust outcomes. A moderate way to manage addiction is by controlling the amount and frequency of gambling. Setting strict limits on both per-session spending and total gambling expenditure can help curb impulsive behavior and prevent significant financial losses.

Gamblers need to regulate themself to have limit of time spent gambling. It can help them regaining control over their habits and allocating time to other productive activities. Finding meaningful employment that provides financial stability and a sense of purpose can also contribute to reducing the reliance on gambling as a source of income or entertainment. It would be easier if gamblers have a support system in place, such as a trusted friend or family member who can provide accountability and encouragement. Being able to confide in someone and seek assistance when feeling tempted to cross boundaries can make a significant difference in overcoming addiction.

Many gamblers don't even see self examining as anything that is why people get easily addicted to gambling,  if people should try to follow up on their self if the manner at which they play gambling is okay , it will really help people from getting addicted,  and it can also help people to play responsible that will help one from losing much money in gambling . Self examining in gambling is another way of making one to learn how to be discipline while playing gambling.  This will be a guide for one to know if gambling is being played in the right way. Most gambling challenge that we find ourselves in is because we zo not try our best to examine ourselves in gambling.

A gambler may not be able to detect his behavioral change without the aid of a close friend. Able to figure out the changes in the life of the player. When our behavior changes, we tend to involuntarily follow it and execute different lifestyles. Only those who watch this can say that a person's behavior has changed. The person can also decide to change their behavior. In such an instance the person would know his behavior changed. But, in gambling the player wouldn't find out his behavior started changing, and won't believe it easily if another body confirms the changes. That's why a lot of gamblers don't get to feel it when running out of money, generally. The self-examination works fine and will facilitate a player to notice these changes.

However, a player who tends to be on the right track by wagering a smaller amount isn't doing the wrong thing but buys more time to enjoy his gambling session. That doesn't mean low rollers don't get addicted. It all depends on the psychological stability of the gambler.  As you said the small amounts can amount to millions over a period of time. Hence, both the high and low rollers need to stay carefully observant of their finance. Ending up broke due to gambling is painful, but not realizing it is worse. It's addiction, and anyone who gets addicted, regardless of his financial category is in trouble and would lose lots of money. That's why I'm encouraging players to participate in the self-examination and save themselves away from addiction and recklessness.

If you are used being a responsible gambler, you will easily determine whenever you cross the line and head to gambling addiction. Your mindset will change, your actions and decision making will also change directions. And you are more chasing of your losses, which if done consistently, will only end up in huge losses. This is why having a regular examination of your gambling habit is a must. You don’t want to gamble and completely lose your control and become all out in gambling, that will certainly put you at a high risk of losing. So if you can check your gambling habit every now and then, it’s better you comply to that before you see yourself losing and regretting in the end.

Because they always think that they are fine and there's no need for any help that's why some gamblers didn't know that they are approaching to be in addiction state but they are still denial unto this situation. If they could only asses the situation and know that they are doing to much on their activities for sure they will never do any destructive behavior which can affect other people. But this doesn't happen on newbie gamblers since there expectation on gambling is so high and usually those people who realize about things they are commonly occur on experience people. So for things not to come in late situation much really better if we could learn to other peoples experience and be open on possibilities so there's no excessive things can harm us and we can continue to enjoy our daily activities.

It's been a while since I last gamble. I became busy due to work so I didn't have much time to play. Moreover, because of the price increase of Bitcoin, I also refrain myself not to spend it so I can gain more if ever the price continue to soar high. Anyway, it's really crucial to examine ourselves to know if we're still playing in moderation or maybe we're already exceeding on our set limit. Because we can prevent ourselves becoming addicted if we have discipline and aware of the limitation everytime we gamble.

[Shamm]

Every after betting we must examine ourselves in short we need to analyze if we gonna chase more win or not. Anyways we must have a self discipline and self control in order to prevent such losses. Cause everytime we gambler there's a chance that greediness will take over us and that must be not happen if we have self control. Cause we are all know what's happening if we let greediness take over us. So we must examine our self

[alani123]

This should be common sense to everyone that's putting money towards gambling. To be able to review your history and see what your profit and loss has been historically is actually really important to be able to assess if you've been gambling responsibly. More so also, some people might bein slight profit but that might have happened through enormous risk that were too big for their income level.

Risking savings with gambling is something that should be avoided in general. So if someone sees that he has been missing out on saving, or hurting his savings, then he should cut back perhaps, or even stop gambling all together if compulsion doesn't help him.

Sad truth though is, some providers offer very limited access to this valuable data. So in my view, if you're going to gamble in a platform and consider staying there long term, it's a good idea to consider if it offers full access to your history.

[Obari]

Don't you think so?

You’re right buddy and I do agree with you that a lot of gamblers especially from this side of the world don’t even pay attention to self examination and just believe everything is under control until it gets out of control.
I think as a gambler, it is best we at every point try as much as possible to examine ourselves and analyze our performances which includes weighing our losses and our profits, so as to know when to pause and take a breaks and when to continue.

Most gamblers don’t even understand what it means for one to examine he or herself.
To self examine oneself simply means that one has to analyze their performance over a period of time based on several factors which might include:- how many hours they spend gambling, their profits and losses, how they spend their profits and several others, so as to stay in track of one’s mental, physical and emotional being.

[Maslate]

I think it's not being able to self examine our gambling habit is like gambling irresponsibly.

Before we decide to gamble, we have to ensure that we evaluate the risk, ask ourselves if how much we can afford to lose, and then we play using that budget, depending how often we gamble as long as we don't go beyond the budget. Gambling addiction normally take place when you are gambling outside your budget as that will create a challenge for you to recover your losses and without you knowing you already begin to chase your bets, betting more than you can afford to  lose. The simple answer is we have to be responsible every time.

[Fivestar4everMVP]

Self examination in gambling (if actually there is anything like this) is something that should be done progressively, while we are participating in gambling, not once in a while, it is something the gambler should wear as a guide at all time, have the consciousness and awareness at all time, this is the best way to guarantee a safe gambling habit at all time.

Gambling addiction is something that is very trickish, it comes very subtlely in a manner that gambler won't even know it, this is why we sometimes, find a gambler who is addicted, but to them, they are not, they feel that they are still gambling normally like everyone else, but in real sense, they have gone overboard.

So, to avoid the chances of getting addicted to gambling, wear self examination as a guide whenever you are gambling, have the consciousness and awareness of every gambling move and decision you make, be proactive in thinking In this regard, this is the best way to go about this, self examination in gambling, like I said before, should never be a once in a while thing.
