Do you want to be free of gambling forever?

[topbitcoin]

Well in the end there is nothing to conclude other than our own self-control when it comes to quitting. Regardless of what it says like dopamine or whatever it is called, it all comes back to ourselves in the end.

It is difficult when a player who is always trying to play in gambling and stop for good but that does not mean this cannot be just a matter of returning to ourselves whether we are able or not.
I personally instead of stopping directly which will only make our situation more difficult then I will choose the option to reduce the dose of gambling done although maybe things like this take a little longer but for me personally it becomes more effective to do because slowly the gambling activities that I do are getting less and less as time goes by.

I had a painful experience with gambling addiction, yet it was also a lesson learned for life. My biggest mistake was that lying to myself kept me chasing a big win to stop gambling, while I was only losing more each time. The time I have decided to stop for good was a great decision to me and no matter how close I stayed in this industry. What really helped me is saying to myself; it’s a trap if I said I would only play this last time, there will be no last time if I let myself again in gambling while my situation isn’t good financially nor mentally.
Long time ago, I also had a different addiction to dopamine, getting it with several way while hurting myself, I also managed to stop that bad habit. So why not this time also. It’s not an easy path to take but I must say proudly that it deserves to stop when you know you are going nowhere but hurting yourself and surroundings.

Of course there is a solution, but whether or not a person is successful in quitting gambling completely depends on the sincerity of his intentions. If it's just a matter of reducing intensity, then you just need to regulate it so you don't gamble every day. You can do other activities to divert your attention or travel to get a new atmosphere. But if you want to stop completely, ask first whether you are ready to forget everything.

Some of my acquaintances managed to kick their gambling addiction completely once they had a steady job. His work routine means he doesn't have time to remember gambling, which ultimately makes him no longer interested in gambling. So, this is one solution if you want to stop gambling completely.

I don't want to get gambling completely out of my life to be honest, because I don't consider it to be a problem as far as my finances and personal relationships go. I don't consider myself to be an addicted person either, so if there is no problem to solve, why solve it ?
I am okey if you are talking to people who have a problem with gambling and acknowledge they have a problem with it, but do not apply the same standard to all of us and assume every single one of us is the stereotypical gambler who does not have control on what they are doing and inevitably will throw all their money onto the casino.

Some of us are here just for the thrill and a responsible experience, staking money we can afford to lose from the beginning.

A part of a person may say yes to this offer but he may also be thinking of its also nice to come back from time to time whenever I wanted to.  Yes its nice to be free of gambling, you may not even like betting anymore after it.

But that's not what I think of free from gambling forever. I'd like to think  free from gambling means you can gamble and stop whenever you wanted to.  After all you can control it.

The truth is that when it gambling becomes too problematic to some people quiting should be the last option because it is not good for them even though it might not be not as easy as I said but one thing for sure is for such person to first admit the fact that he or she is addicted to gambling based on the experiences and the next thing should be taken decision which of course will give discipline and direction towards achieving a proper solution the problem. Quiting gambling forever is a huge freedom to an addicted gambler compared to gambling whenever you want and stop wherever you wanted to.

There is no such thing as being free of gambling for ever, you could give it a break and be back which isn’t a bad thing to do, it ensures your checking your finance and staying within profitable habits when it comes to gambling. Staying off gambling for ever makes it seem as though it’s a bad activity to be involved in and the need to cut it short but, that’s not the case. It’s more about you than gambling.

I am a non-addicted player who has been gambling for over three years. I haven't had a 100% control on my gambling. Sometimes, I have been indiscipline with my gambling budget, time, and words. But it doesn't happen all the time. I suggest having a clear thought out and if possible well written plan of pre and post gambling. This plan will help you to control your gambling. It is like an accountability checker. If you need to involved an outside party to help keep you in check do it and start TODAY(as in the OP). This has worked for me.

The funny thing is that the ops already refers to all gamblers here as addicted gamblers that are willing to help others avoid gambling addiction, this could be a wrong assumption because most of the gamblers in this Forum have understood the fundamentals of gambling and how to gamble to overcome addictions on the long run, so no addict can say that he can help another person avoid addictions when they are sucked in the same addictions.

Gambling is a common thing in a place where everything is lost to the willpower of man. If a man decides for himself that he will stay away from gambling forever, then he can, he must be able to, it must be his personal determination.

However, if close relatives, especially parents, siblings, spouses, children, and office colleagues, help him build enough self-confidence, it will not be difficult for that gambler to get rid of his gambling addiction forever.

Dopamine is a type of chemical found between human neuron axons and dendrites that carries important information such as human emotions and desires, self-confidence, and pain to the brain and creates temporary reports.

The truth is that this table addiction struggles, it's better you take time off the casino for a while, calm your mind and imbibed some responsible gambling practices before returning to the casino with a renewed gambling mindset.

Responsible gambling is the solution and to be one you must learn to gamble within your budget and discipline yourself to quit as soon as you get to your budget for the day. You can fund once to help and you should accept the fact that loses are part of gambling and resist chasing loses which is the main cause of addiction and big financial losses

Actually, I am not addicted to gambling, I only gamble occasionally for enjoyment, so it never occurred to me that I had to be gambling-free forever or I might have a financial crisis.
However, for those who are addicted to gambling and do not gamble for enjoyment but only to earn money or to get rich easily, I would say that they should quit gambling.
Or you should follow a specific strategy and then go out to gamble, where before starting gambling, you should allocate a specific fund, which you should take a break from gambling after losing, and at the same time, you should set a win limit to take a break.
In this way, if someone can control their greed by gambling with a strategy, then I don't think they need to be free of gambling.

You know, we all handle things differently.  I have seen folks who can play some games here and there and not get too hooked and  its like having a piece of cake - they enjoy it but dont go overboard.  For other people though, stopping once they start gambling can be real hard.

  Itd be like if that cake was so tasty you just kept going back for more slices without even realizing it!

At some point they have to realize the patterns being reproduced are being damaging for them. If they don't do this for themselves, I fear nobody else is going to save them, as the initiative has to come from each individual, especially regards matters involving personal welfare and health.

The cake must be really tasty, but it's necessary to get conscious it's not healthy to have so much from that cake in particular. On the other hand, they shouldn't feel sad about that, because there are many other tasty cakes available in this world to be eaten.

They just have to try new cakes, not sticking solely to one flavour, but consuming some of them in the right proportions.

It will be the same old same advice: set a budget and make sure you follow that budget, don't gamble with the aim of making money, and don't consider gambling as a source of income. Always see it as something you do for fun and entertainment, and don't feel too comfortable at the table, and if you feel something is not alright, talk to someone and seek their advice. It's not all about giving out that advice and guidance; the question is, will the person be willing to adhere to that advice that is given to him/her?

if you know yourself well then you will realize that not everything can be conquered easily, so from that thought you will be careful in taking action when gambling.

gambling addicts usually come from those who have weak self-control, their desires defeat their logic and that makes them actually shackled.

I have been gambling for years, even my partner knows it, every day I learn to always control my emotions and also greed that often arises in gambling, I also never play overnight, if I lose then I will come back tomorrow, that makes me not addicted until now.

Freeing oneself from gambling addiction and problem gambling is not an easy task. There is no advice we can give here that will be entirely effective for someone who is already addicted. In most cases, gamblers only decide to turn a new leaf after suffering severe losses. This is very very risky.

Rather than focusing so much on how to break free from gambling, which is quite a  difficult thing to do, it is wiser for every gambler to ensure they do not fall into gambling-related issues that can lead to addiction. Start now by regulating your gambling habits, setting budgets, and maintaining discipline. This is the only way to free ourselves from gambling problems forever.

Ah, it feels, like, so difficult if you are used to gambling and then have to stop completely. Especially for those who are already addicted, this might be similar to smokers. Yes, it is indeed a matter of thought. However, there are indeed several things that must support each other when you are really going to stop being an addicted gambler.

I read this:
Having an intention is the first step that must be taken and this comes from a very strong mind and desire from within. After that, is it enough? NO!

At least, there are several steps as informed here:

• Acknowledge that it's time to get help.
• Talk to a professional.
• Start gambling addiction treatment.
• Collaborate on your treatment plan.
• Try out Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
• Engage in new hobbies.[/i]

and in the journey, of course, it is not easy and cheap, there must be cooperation between yourself and the people and the surrounding environment to truly be able to optimize this treatment sustainably.

The addicted patient needs treatment that enables him to control his behaviors in a way that enables him to resist the desire to gamble. Only the normal user can control his will to practice gambling as an entertaining activity to pass the time with the possibility of stopping at any time. All treatments for behavioral addiction to gambling involve the patient completely cutting off everything related to gambling using different therapeutic means. It will never be beneficial for the gambling addict to be exposed to stimuli that prevent him from continuing treatment sessions that include a complete lifestyle with constant monitoring.

It's easier said than done I would say. No one in their right mindset would want to get addicted to gambling, or even anything because addiction is not a good thing even if what you are addicted to is a good thing in itself. Excess of anything is bad for us, and when it comes to gambling, we lose money in it and money is one of the most important things for us these days because you can't do anything in the world without money, so everyone wants to have as much of it as possible.

That's why I say that people don't get addicted by will but it just happens and it mostly happens because they lack self-control and discipline. If you are not able to control yourself and your emotions then it is going to be extremely difficult for you to get away from something if you start to like it. That is how most people get addicted to gambling. They win some money initially, and start liking it, so they gamble more often, and since they don't have much control over their emotions, they end up getting addicted and then can't part ways.

There is what we call self-conviction. There is no amount of suggestions/advice you will give to an addicted gambler for him to quit gambling that will make him quit unless he has self-conviction or should I say self-realization. Addictions is something that is hard to deal with. Most people go to rehab and after some time, go back to do the same thing they were admitted for addiction.

Some people quit gambling because the information they heard and some quit in gambling because of relocation and also lack of finance, we think that gambling addiction nobody can stop the person not to partake on gambling

I want to make some of us to understand that gambling addict can be free from be a serious gambler through advice, so I know very well that we have to know that gambling addition is base on individual determination and decisions, so their's no decision that's not reversible.
