Enough of the advice already

[GreatArkansas]

It is amazing to understand that external influence can enable one to be placed on track again. To recover, one should be open minded to the advice. This trip proves that you can still get out of great emotional distress through rational consciousness. This first hand experience is a testimony of how important it is to consider common sense.

The first is to be open-minded and be ready to accept advice from others before the advice gets into you. There is a lot of professional help from those who can help addicted gamblers, but only a few of them can effectively reflect it in their lives because they allow it to get to them by accepting it.

Advice is just words! It's always up to us.
Just think if a doctor, when giving you advice about your health, or when you visit a clinic because you feel something, then the doctor starts to give advice like foods or drinks to avoid, and must take them after you go home, it will be now up to you if you want to follow the advice that the doctor said or not, same thing here on gambling advices, all of the advices here are just words, it will be up to you if you follow these.

So for me, it's still self control, it will be always yourself versus yourself.

You may lack knowledge about the risks of gambling addiction, it is better to warn through advice about the negative aspects of gambling. You may gamble for a long time but be unaware of the risks of gambling addiction. You may lack knowledge about the fact that a certain amount of funds should be limited for gambling and that you should not play beyond the specified time. Knowing the right advice can come in handy at some point.

I know that no matter how much advice is given to an addicted gambler, they will not accept your advice. Until the available funds with them are exhausted. They will continue to gamble until they are trapped in a debt trap because they do not realize that they are addicted.

Advice to gamblers does not work most of the time but if you can convince him that he is addicted to gambling, it may be possible to bring him back from that stage. If advice is given by family members, the advice is more likely to be effective and the money supply should be stopped.

I noticed everyone gives the same advice, including me. I am not exempted. Risk what you can afford to lose, apply proper money management, set aside funds to gamble, patience and so on. But if gambling could actually be controlled by advice alone, why do casinos still make billions?

In theory, advice is correct. But reality shows you a different part. No amount of advice can change someone who is already addicted to gambling. In losing streak, advice goes out the door and emotions take over.

Physical location casinos can't even make you apply any advice. Free drinks, shining light, the hot seat and so on. You will forget you wrote down a paragraph of advice to do gambling properly. Online casinos are even worse. Constant advert of it passing through your phone or computer screen, auto play feature to actually get you hooked.

If advice doesn't really work at all, what then truly works? Complete avoidance? Or strict deposit limit? Or something else entirely, I will love to know. To be honest, has gambling advice ever worked for any of you? I would love be to hear your thoughts.

Well, no doubt, emotional factor also plays a crucial role in ur gambling habits. As I have been saying earlier, and a point u didn't mention, self discipline is d base, d going of everything u've mentioned. If ur not self disciplined and self conscious, every advice will be like a waste of time.

It is not just about being an addict or not, it is about knowing when to stop, and be disciplined enough to actually stop. It also applies to every other advice and strategies to be applied. It's one tyn to know these advices, and another thing to apply them, and that other thing is called discipline.

If you break the limits, you will get in the risk and that will be big, more than you can afford which can makes you regret.

Casinos makes billions because greedy people who chasing the winning. They don't realizes the impact that could happens to them and use more money to win.

Awareness will makes you realizing that gambling is not a place to make money but only a place to have fun. You will not spend money more than you can afford. The advice worked for me and makes me stay aware and treat gambling for fun so I don't use too much money and will not chasing the win.

Of a truth advice hold no real impact or value towards a addicted gamblers . Advising someone that is not ready to be a responsible gambler is like pouring water in a basket that will only end up wasting every single effort you have put in to make things work. Moreover, even the gambling platforms also warned against irresponsible gamble yet people are still doing otherwise. So to me it's better for a player to learn from hard experience because that is the only language they understand , I don't have such strength in doing that when I already gotten my issues to attend to.  If we must get things right then what is the point waiting for someone to advice you on things to do when common sense and zero greed is there to give you the answers that you need.

You're right Yablee0, advice even from friends isn't really considered or calculated.
The friend, if such, must not lend money and above all must absolutely not be made to feel pity.
If he then wants to complete his help he must contact an expert who can help him, perhaps a psychologist.

If the advice does not work for a gambler, cut off his source of income. It will be easy to cut off the source of income of that addicted gambler by applying pressure from the family. However, if that addicted gambler cannot stop gambling, his source of income will stop after some time because the addiction prevents him from being responsible.

Irresponsibility is seen in addicted gamblers because he loses control over himself due to the high amount of losses. Since the sources of income cannot meet his needs in gambling, he becomes indebted.

Personally the advice of experienced gamblers has worked in my case, such as allocating a separate and limited fund for gambling, not playing for too long, and stopping the game if the amount of losses is high.

I'll be giving advice on the sixth page . Heh. It's all very funny, of course; moreover, none of the players will accept any advice for themselves personally and will not follow it.

The problem for those who already have a gambling addiction is that they already have their own vision of the world, and only it is true for them. Their confidence that they are not addicted players does not allow them to take a sober look at their lives, change them, or even more so listen to thousands of tips.

This gambling advice will work for those who follow it. Now no matter how much advice a person is given, if he does not follow all this advice, if he gambles recklessly and spends his extra money on gambling platforms, then all this advice will never work for him. And not everyone may follow all this advice, for which gambling platforms can earn hundreds of crores of taka. But this advice works easily for me, because I am not addicted to gambling and I am not looking for any way to earn money from gambling platforms.

It is very important for a person to make a conscious and determined decision to recover from a gambling addiction on their own. Until they truly want it themselves, most advice and recommendations will simply pass by without having any real effect. However, to truly want to change something in your life, sometimes you need to fall low enough to push yourself back up.

The best advice is the one someone will seat down and give himself or herself and not the one someone will give to you though sometimes some people change from the advise they got from someone but sometimes it is just a mere opinion  because they will have to check it if it is in line with what they believe or not. I don't need any advice from anyone about how I should gamble because I know what I should gamble with and how to go about it.

You don't have to listen to any advice, your actions and results should be enough to help you make a plan on what you should be doing. It's not that easy to control out gambling habits, even if you put down a list of rules and law that you wish to follow as a gambler, when it's time for you to play, you find yourself doing exactly the opposite of what you said you will not do. We already know that in the world of gambling, the casino are the ones making the money we are just selling our self dream of making profits through gambling while the casino are the ones who are actually profiting. But if we just continue for the fun then we don't mind losing as long as it's what we can afford to lose.

If someone gambles by listening to someone's advice, then no one else will take responsibility for his loss. And if he gambles according to his own plan, then he will have to take responsibility for his loss himself. Rather, when someone gambles by listening to someone else's advice, he will be completely dependent on others and this means that he is serious about gambling and is gambling for a large amount of financial support. In this case, he will not be able to keep himself away from gambling or control himself to be a responsible gambler. One should always gamble only based on his own thoughts. And one should never expect too much from gambling because the more one expects, the more serious he will be and the more serious he will be, the more addicted he will be. And we all know how terrible it is for a person when he is addicted to gambling.

Just like you don't want to take advice from anyone, you may have a lot of gambling experience, but there are many new gamblers who will not take advice from others. This may be because of their pride or because they think they are smart enough. A gambler may lack knowledge, if he is losing too much, he may not have the mental maturity to control himself, he can take advice from experienced people. There is no harm in this because he will apply his own strategy and can take the necessary measures to reduce losses.

In the early days of gambling, I did not have any strategy to control myself or to allocate a fixed budget, which was also outside my plan. But by taking advice from experienced gamblers I am now a controlled gambler.
