i lost $6767 via gambling in world cup. I need advice on how to quit gambling

[commandrix]

Ask your friendly IT professional about how to block gambling sites. It's a lot harder to lose money betting online if you simply can't get to the websites.

it's fine to make mistakes.. what's fatalistic is to not learn from them and make better decisions. repeating the same mistakes over and over, without seeing the pattern or cause, is just plain dumb.

[Malin Keshar]

1 - Block the gambling sites in your host file and put the gambling board on your ignore list in your account
2 - If you have some money left in any site, put a bet for Netherlands being at 3th place and recover some loss. Then never go back to these sites again.
3 - You may ask the gambling sites to delete your account too

you have to start smoke weed I think weed is a great substitute to quit gambling. so smoke some weed and relax your mind .when you forget your gambling then when you will start your work again you are totally relaxed from weed

that's what i was gonna say.  weed is one of the good drugs.  PCP is the other one

  don't compare weed with drugs ! 

it is natural hub which grows in our environment it is not man made thing which is made by mixing of chemicals .
it is Gods gift to human beings to relax your mind after huge tensions and work . you don't need make this habit but use as natural medicine for relaxing your body

drugs is anything that is illegal (and therefore bad for u).

DRUGS R BAD.  MMM KAY

Drugs make you freak for music and parties . drugs is the part time thing which is a work in parties when loud music is running . weed is opposite to the drug after do weed you just need peace around yours . your mind is going to relax .

My ex was deep into gambling and we literally lost our house because of it (utilities shut off etc) and it was horrifying to watch because I know he's a smart guy.

What happened is we took the gambling completely out of the picture, for a while he did online gambling (not BTC) but just about every online casino banned him.

And we live in a place where the nearest casino is about an hour and a half drive and that's not a drive you'd like to make every day.

Take yourself out of the environment, and look back and kind of reflect on it. You'll see what you've done wrong, also there are plenty of hotlines and help groups for it (hell the one casino in PA advertises it every 5 seconds)

Take care my friend and get better.

Once and for all. I realize that gambling mess up my life and my social life as well. I need to get out the game while I still can. Advice?

The Minnesota problem gambling hotline is 1-800-333-HOPE.

There may be a hotline in the jurisdiction where you live.

I suspect it will be easier if you have others to talk to who have been where you are.

that should be a lesson to him..

if you could beat the house, the house wouldn't be there

in my society one family with husband and wife and two children cute boy and girl . one day our whole area saw police caught him and getting him to police station some time later the police told us he killed his wife and children . then someone asks why ?
then the police man told he was doing gambling on daily bases and he addicted to the gambling . one day he realized he had no money in hand and then where form he will survive his family in this world without money . then I took this decision of the murderer

that makes no sense, if he can't support his family, how is killing them going to help them

what he needed to do was get his fucking lazy ass on work and provide!

I think he was in huge debt he started thinking it impossible to recover with his 8 hour work so he took this decision but it was not a right decision . he needed to do work for 15-18 hours with his wife . then he easily recovered all bad days of life but he was ass hole man!

That really seems to be the way most people learn
I developed a gambling addiction. I won 2000 BTC back when they were $8-10 or so around October 2012... Lost 1500 BTC a few days later at the same place I won them.

yip.... then price went to ages later $1400 -  but still.....that was the most depressing time lol
I'm getting over it... day by day...

Just stop gambling. Find a hobby. Start exercising. Join support groups.

Step 1: Loan $50k from loanshark.
Step 2: Go to casino and bet it all on 00.
Step 3:
Step 4: Never gamble again.

He was asking for an advice how to stop, not how to progress in even deeper shit.

I'll serve you what i have been served so far: ''what makes betting houses, casinos and lotteries stand?"

[jump4ever]

go see a therapist.

[AuroraHF]

Have you tried contacting your local anti-gambling help hotline?

[BitcoinTraders]

Don't mind about this loss as you lost it in gambling!
Think that you lost it anywhere and nobody will give it back to you!
And never think again about gambling and things like it...

[rohnearner]

What else you can expect after sharing problems online, You'll get all the shit you never expected but one must filter out few of the wise advices and just Apply it.
For me Gambling goes down with 2 rules
" Don't Gamble more than you can Afford to lose [old but true] "
" Never Get Addicted if you ever like getting addicted just stop it for a while " although not many has will power for doin so.
