If you end up gambling enough, like way too much, you will eventually get sick of it. So the best thing to do is to keep gambling, but just do more of it.

That is the worst advice you could've ever given him.

You clearly aren't happy with your current state of life, so my best advice is to quit being a puss. You realize gambling all the time is not fruitful, yet you continue to do it. You really just need to mature a bit and decide what you want in life. Nothing is going to be given to you in this world (well, maybe if the Democrats continue winning elections), you need to go out and earn it. Unless you're happy living in a 1 bedroom apartment for life, I would get educated, find a trade/career, and do something with your life. No one here can make you do it, you have to man up and quit being such a derelict. This kind of addiction is mental, be stronger than it.

Everything you said is true, but I'm not sure how helpful it is.

"Take responsibility for your own situation" is indeed the answer, but that's easier said than done.
Yeah, I am terribly blunt at times. I apologized to the OP via PM as well, but what you said is exactly the point I was trying to get across.

It's all good, I was a little mad at first, bit life is to,short and I'm  proud I didn't place a bet in 2 days after 2 strIght years.. I never said I needed or had to quit completely
Good for you man. I'm rooting for you.

I could be wrong, but it sounds like the OP is doing quite well financially to me.

you might be right that the op needs to decide what he wants in life, but it doesn't sound like he needs anything given to him/needs to skill up.

why not do due diligence on bitsharesx and dpos instead?

kinda like gambling, but more like an investment. it's a way to occupy your time and money.

I think I'm not addicted but I love to gamble for money.

I won 0.34 btc in prime dice, the other day I lost 0.36.

After that I make my daily visit on prime dice, grab the faucet and bet. When I win jay, when I lose who cares.

I always image I bet all my btc, then hit the button and when I lose then I'm glad I didn't play for money again.


@op : grab yourself a girlfriend Smiley

Make a huge bet with yourself that you will never gamble again. With that hedge, you can't lose.

I'm addicted too but I've had a great led the past five years. Guys addiction for you could be 1000 BTC and for someone else it could be .5 BTC. It's all about how it affects your life and how you feel. If you think you're addicted, I'm sorry, but you probably are. Best thing is to stop, tell someone about it, try ga or doctor meetings to discuss, come up with a new hobby, and give control of BTC to someone else you trust, temporarily.

If you are blindly addicted just to click to roll dice or something this is very bad, but if you addiction is also a big interest maybe It isn't very bad. You must analyze your game, ask your self what you are doing wrong, is it wroth doing it, accept your mistakes when you lose. Think about your game analyze It,be honest to yourself. I am more talking about Poker, sports betting, and other casino games. If you have slot machine addiction, then yes you must stop it or at least minimize to specific amount that you can give away for fun. I'm talking like about few dollars a day and when done just quit.

Learn to trade Forex! It literally took me several years of research to get profitable. Instead of spending all your time on gambling. Start researching go to babypip.com school read through the entire school. Take all the quizzes (all of this is free!) Then go to babypips forum and read through some of the longest standing threads. If anyone is hosting webinars ask to join! This especially can be very helpful. Once you think your ready start a practice account and trade for 6 months to a year.

So instead of gambling he should gamble?  That's what trading the market is nowadays anyway.
