How to control this ?

[SmartGold01]

I must say right away that such topics are clearly in this section, but in order not to clog them up, I created a separate one with different diversions.

Addicted people clearly have one problem:
They start playing with the money they set aside for the game, after they lose it, they take up money that is no longer intended for games and continue to lose. As a result, this leads to absurd situations and difficult moments in life.

You can block your casino account, but will that help? Of course not, in two minutes you can create a new one or go to another casino that will be no worse than the rest.
What should a gambling person do nowadays? How can he overcome himself and not spend more than he should.
Let's sort it out by points and try to give everyone their own version or experience, maybe it will help someone, including me.

It's not about getting rid of the casino completely, but only distribution and self-control.
I really hope that you will share your personal experience.

You are right closing a casino account doesn't really matter and what count most is how to control ones action and emotions towards gambling. To me I would say that when gambling you should locate a specific amount to gamble or when exhausted you shouldn't go ahead with your alternate saving to gamble.

I think could I did made a post towards this or a reply somewhere about gambling allocating specific fund by weekly/monthly to gamble and when these amounts are exhausted they should wait till the month runs to get it refilled to gamble otherwise would definitely ends up touching money not meant to gamble with.

However, gambling addiction and control of mind, there are people who may control their emotions and their greed index towards gambling and of course this is controlled then we can say to be very difficult for one to become addicted to gambling. But on the contrary, if planning to close a casino account or betting account would be every tendency to create account in another casino to continue gambling which turns doesn't solve any problems instead doing more harm to the gambler itself.

It's really hard to really control ourselves, it's like someone inside of is telling us to continue to gamble and maybe we can won back those money that we lose. In my experience though, I will always think of my prioritizes in life, like putting put in the table for my family or even the education of my kids. Of course, it order to sustain that, you need to have a good job as well.

So with that, as much as I wanted to, I will just have to think that I can't afford to lose that money right now. Specially if I will have to pay like for example a monthly education for my kids. I will simply stop and then focus on the next month that I need this x amount so that I can continue the education of my kids and it works most of the time.

The first thing anyone who has a problem with spending more money on gambling than they should is to admit the problem to themselves and others around them. There are few people who can solve such a problem by themselves without the help of others.

The key is to have people you trust, and then entrust your personal finances to them in such a way that they simply do not give you more money than what you intended for gambling. It is a decision that is very difficult to decide on and may not even be the ultimate solution to the problem, because people who are addicted to something in the absence of money often borrow money from others or turn to stealing and reselling things.

Money control is one approach, but my opinion is that such people simply need to find some other source of entertainment (excitement) to forget about gambling.

Learning to be in full control of ourselves is one of the tasks we work on throughout our lives. At first, our parents are involved in this process. As we gain experience and wisdom, we gradually take the reins of power into our own hands. In my opinion, there is not and will not be a single advice that would help everyone, because someone fully control themselves already in high school, and someone can not learn it for a lifetime. You just need to work on yourself every day and try to limit the desires that are not necessary. Gambling has never been a necessity for us. It is only an entertainment that requires money. If you are spending a lot of money on gambling, then you are not working on yourself enough and you should put more effort in this direction.

On the contrary, I actually think that this is part of the solution if a gambler is really serious to stop such addiction because when you short yourself out from your account which is one easy access you have to gambling then you have already started the healing process. If you block your casino account and do away with the password by either deleting it from your system or somewhere that you have written out then you are likely to forget memorizing it and by that way it gradually goes off your memory. However, this solution is for someone who has built strong determination and passion to stop because most times addict only want to stop by the lips and not by serious action on it. If you block your account and throwaway password then you are sure going to need another registration to open another account and that is a conscious effort.

What should a gambling person do nowadays? How can he overcome himself and not spend more than he should.

To build strong emotion and resistance to that kleptomaniac feeling of wanting to gamble all the time. Most times it is not easy to stop an addiction by your lips but you need strong commitment towards it.

100% agree, if you can't stop, try to control it instead. It's not for nothing that professionals recommend trying to reduce exposure slowly compared to abruptly stopping. It's also what I did when I noticed I was spending way too much time and money in the past gambling. I dipped into my savings for a bit back then but after that I immediately tried to do some remedies. Blocking your account (or yourself) from playing can help, but I'd say it depends on the level of addiction.

The best method that actually helped me was just to go to my other hobbies instead, ones that don't need much money (or none at all!). I basically started studying again and coming back to FPS games just to stop myself from gambling. It worked rather well though it may differ based on how much "addicted" you are, I was what I'd consider beginning to be addicted. It might work though, just take more time.

There are many factors why gamblers start having problems with addiction... Maybe he started playing for fun with a little money, then was given a win even though it was not big but became curious... When he loses he continues to deposit until finally the peak catches up with the loss in the previous game.

Even people who are addicted in difficult times still dare to take risks to continue playing gambling. Because we know that after they are addicted, their determination becomes strong, it is difficult to be advised.

Blocking a casino account will not be effective, as some casinos may not allow it...
One of the self-control is discipline in gambling and organize the bankroll as well as possible so that when you lose, you don't want to play again.

I only dare to lose a little money in gambling... If you lose then stop playing and come back after recovering.

The most important point in overcoming this problem is self-awareness, we must be aware of our condition & situation, so that we can manage ourselves. I meet a lot of problem gamblers, and it's not about the platform & things outside of themselves, it's about themselves. Even if we make a special allocation for gambling, if a gambler's mentality is not good & they don't understand their own situation, of course they will return to gambling with other allocations outside of their proper gambling allocation.

[Ambatman]

Most time this arises because they made use of fund that would off their common sense meter.
There are certain amount that you would loss that you would just let go but making use of funds outside your self control meter?
Brings about revenge gambling
Which seduces you more lower and lower till there's nothing.
There's a saying, a problem shared is a problem have solved.
Inform people you trust, talk to people about such and how they Coped
The method might not be same for everyone but there's definitely one out there that's for you.
Overcoming addictions take commitment, determination and a set will.

[GideonGono]

For me I usually take a break after losing,we should also figure out why we are gambling so that we wouldn't be addicted to it, figure out if you are just gambling to have fun, past your time because of boredom, excitement or thrill, or is it purely for the profit, after knowing the real reason why you gamble it would be easier to find an alternative activity to lessen it.

This understanding of your's stated here shows it's going to be easier helping you than it would be with others that's if you see the need for help probably if you think you are becoming addicted, completely getting rid of the casinos is something that may sound almost not achievable soonest because its obvious business for some casino owners and even some Gamblers but trying to make sure not to be the source of income to either of these two but making as much as you can from the business becomes the main point of consideration because even some gamblers make money off other gamblers. Training yourself to have discipline, self control and restrictions when necessary is just the best way to get things done rightly enough not to be stucked as a gambler.

Gambling never solves a person's financial problems, those involved in the world of gambling must think about what their main goal is to gamble, if we live below the poverty line and enter the world of gambling, There is no medicine or antidote for them, except their own awareness, but it is difficult because most of them think that gambling can change their lives from an economic perspective, in fact it is not the case, in fact they live worse.

Quite a lot of people use gambling as their main source of income, so they dare to do something that they actually can't afford in the future, For this reason, try to think of gambling as a game and fun, so we don't need to think of gambling as an addiction.

That’s where it all starts, but everything changes after a win. Why? Because many people get greedy. They start to think that a bigger capital means bigger wins, and that’s when things can go away from what they think at the start. 

You can block your casino account, but will that help? Of course not, in two minutes you can create a new one or go to another casino that will be no worse than the rest.

It might not be the best solution or an effective strategy, but at least you’re taking steps to control yourself. It’s not just about actions; it’s about what’s going on in your mind too. If we want to avoid this addiction, we have to work hard for it as well and been serious for such a change. Or else, we can't escape from temptation.

What specific practices can you suggest in short solutions to these situations? You understand that not all people can control themselves, all these things can be uncontrollable for a certain range of people.
Are there any working methods? Without enumeration and pointless advice, but some practical things based on your experience. I would be grateful to each of you if you could help me with this, it gives me a lot of problems.

One thing with how addiction starts is that the player first plays  with a budget just as you have said, when they lose, they do not see it like they are gambling or playing for fun but rather, they become furious and begin to chase their losses with the intentions of recovering back their funds and it eventually turns out that they keep losing and losing.  

It takes discipline and self restraint  to be able for one to control their gambling habit or lifestyle. Many people misconstrue gambling for profit making and a means or source of income and to be frank, that lies the source of gambling addiction because they already conditioned their mindset to the fact that they can earn money from gambling and they keep playing and playing even when they record huge losses, they keep playing not knowing that they already get addicted to gambling.

It takes personal efforts and discipline if a person really wants to stop their addiction. They could limit their visit to casino website, gamble with a clear thought of having fun, gamble with what they could afford to lose, set out a budget for their gambling and have time for which they can gamble and work in accordance with it. They should also know when to call it a quit and not gamble beyond their budget if they win or not.

I realize controlling ourselves is not easy while we gamble because we will see the temptation from gambling will comes through many ways. We will not realizes what happen to us and continue to gamble with more money. We may block our casino account but that doesn't mean we can fully leave the casino because the will to come back to casino will be there and will whisper in our ear to visit the casino.

I think many of us have this experienced when we really want to limit our time in gambling. But we still come back to casino and forget about the limitation that we used before.

We really need to control ourselves by not letting the temptation come to us. What I did just to control my minds from gambling by make me busy with my routine activity so that help me to forget about gambling for a while. I know it needs practice from time to time but that is worth to especially if you care with yourself and don't want to get the trouble.

Maybe you can search for the other ways that will suit for you because what other people suggest sometimes will not work good for you.

No matter how we give advice to addicts, they will not enter again because they have entered the comfort zone of gambling addiction. some steps are mentioned to avoid more losses but we see in reality the casino still continues.

There is no way unless they stop and train themselves not to play similar games. But in the end they will feel that something wrong has been done with what has happened to them. Only a small number of people can control their gambling addiction, not because of advice from other people but because of self-awareness.

[TribalBob]

What should a gambling person do nowadays?

What gamblers do today is control themselves from the strong desire to gamble, where there are many gambling platforms today, which usually we will sail from one platform to another to seek fortune, without realizing that we have used a lot of money and are in the stage of addiction.

that's a really long tagging.
The first is acknowledging that there's a problem
This is one of the biggest step.
Determination helps, you know the disadvantage of what you doing the next is to consciously start mitigating it with time.
A slow process and sometimes you would experience a fall back but picking yourself back up matters.
Engage in something that is productive and would require your attention.
Personally never been addicted to gambling because am always conscious of my limit but I have been with a food and I tried other things when am feeling the urge like watching movies, Going for a walk or just outright talking to another.
I know I can never make a proud decision when am been emotional so I tend not to act in my emotions and wait after I know I have got some semblance of rationality.

Most gamblers are addicted because they have no job or their job is not paying well which they think gambling is a platform that can generate more money. A gambler that is trying to get rid of gambling addiction should his best to get a working source of income because when their is no work that is generating money for you it can be a reason why one would want to return back to gambling. I believe when gambling money is not a reason for one to gamble it will be easy for one to try to avoiding gambling.  
One can also get rid of gambling addiction after realising and to feel very worried how addiction is dangerous to him, but when their is no worries then addiction is not a problem to the person.
