The answer is simple, no more, seek advice from your parents, they are the first source of help, if due to the complex circumstances of life they are not within your reach to help, go for professional help. By the way, deciding if you are sick or are prone to addiction can only be determined by an expert, the serious situation here is you are a minor and your mind, time should be focused on other things.

There are many help sites, e,g,:
Quote
be game aware: However you’re feeling right now, we’re here to help
Call - Chat - Phone:Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week
Source:https://www.begambleaware.org/do-i-have-gambling-problem

All casino or entertainment sites, they must always be supported by advice on this issue.

you are a good example of the self-assessment that we must always have and the remarkable thing is that you are only 14 years old. I did the test of the link, without considering that I have problems, but perhaps there is the detail, believing that we are fine, the evaluation by third parties is always necessary.

Many believe that those with addiction problems are those with losses, but the addiction attacks the winner and the loser alike.

my dad runs a DNS server, sometime this week, im going to ask him to block a set of gambling sites on the DNS, so that its impossible for me to visit said websites.
As I said before, talking to your dad is the right thing to do. "sometime this week"?! It looks like you are still hesitant about this decision and just looking for excuses to postpoint it as long as possible. Go talk to him right now!
However, am not certain how effective dns blocking is going to be for someone who already knows how to use VPNs!
In the meantime, whenever you feel the urge to gamble, just go out for a walk and find a hobby to distract you from thinking about gambling.

It's a good thing you noticed on time you can avoid getting addicted and at the age of 18, you should avoid gambling until you are matured enough to control emotions that are associated with gambling.
You can try withdrawing slowly
but specifically the age of 18 is no longer the age of children and it is the age of adolescence and even the transition to adulthood, and actually the OP has to see and think that it is beneficial or not.
but with a strong urge like the OP said I think he really needs someone who advises or can go directly to a psychiatrist not to focus too much on gambling.
at least with the advice or going to a psychiatrist at least it can reduce the effects of addiction and can make self-control better.

Looking at your post history you don't write like a 14 year old.  Grin Or maybe you are just really good at your language or you think like a mature man.
Gambling is suppose to be for fun but base on your input it looks like you are going overboard that you also have thoughts about it even at school.
As a parent and also base on experience, that is not looking good anymore. It's out of hand, you cannot control the urgency to gamble per day. It's an addiction.
You might want to consider looking for help or be busy with other things to forget about it. How about friends?

Ill take that as a compliment!

I have been looking into ways to stop me from gambling. On my home network, my dad runs a DNS server, sometime this week, im going to ask him to block a set of gambling sites on the DNS, so that its impossible for me to visit said websites. This is the best solution I can think of. Thanks for the advice guys! Cheesy

That's a good first step, and hopefully you can control yourself so that you won't get addicted to gambling because it is really hard to get out of it.

I myself was addicted to it very early, but I guess when I mature, priorities has change and maybe I have the mentality to take over of myself before my addiction goes out of hand. And to share, it was my family that help me a lot realised my mistakes and hopefully you have a family that is very supportive as well. Goodluck.

At your age I will not advise you to continue playing gambling as the repercussion maybe destructive in time to come, so please try as much as possible to stop and focus your education. The way you are taking playing gambling, it may eventually lead you addiction if care is not taking. Please try as much as possible to pick interest in something else that will divert your attention from playing gambling.

So for an underage betting so much where do you get the money from and I am sure your parents are unaware about it. Secondly it is high time you quit and concentrate on other thing which kids do at your age like studies, playing out, making friends, watching TV, reading books etc. This will help you and gambling if need to be done, later stage once you earn can do always.

My idea of fun nowadays is booting up NordVPN, going to Stake, depositing crypto into the website, and gambling.
Using a VPN for gambling is not advisable if you want to prevent problems that may make the gambling site freeze your fund.
But in most cases, it is up to the point of availing and misusing bonuses. Still I agree with you because different carypto houses are having different rules and regulations against multiple account hence I cannot say using a VPN IP will not have any problem or will secure you or anything similar to that.

your addiction can telling you to play gambling using a VPN or open the block by asking for help from your dad.
Yeah, this is simply indicating the level of severity of addictions. When you get blocked from continuing gambling then you must need to come back the next day if you are a non-addicted gambler but addicted gamblers will go for by-passing such blocking. So, I too feel that OP must need immediate attention for curing their gambling addictions.

It's when you are young and have a lot of free time to do and think about "things"... I don't think I can even count how many nights I was awake because of gambling or just playing "normal games",
this reminds me of an MMORPG(ran online) I got addicted to when I was in my high school days. I would constantly think about buying lottery boxes to try my luck of getting rare items that can be sold for a lot of in-game gold. It even came to a point where I would dream about getting great items on the lottery box. at the time I never really considered buying lottery boxes as gambling but now that I am an adult, lottery boxes are definitely gambling no matter which game it is from. anyway, I am not sure how I got over about thinking so much about the lottery boxes but I am glad I did.

You got over that simply because you have grown up in the meantime! It's simple in my opinion, all those vices around are great actually, and overdoing something from time to time can lead to some great experience, it's life and playing with fire! But being aware that it's fire and learning how to play with it and not get burned is a skill, and to come to be a skilled and experienced person you need to practice things, and sometimes that practicing can be great the same as it can be a complete disaster, pushing borders on both sides should always lead to some greater knowledge, if you are able to, if not fire will just eat you!

Hey guys! I just wanted to make this post to see whether or not you think that what I do for fun has turned into a problem, let me set the scene.


I started online gambling a while ago, at first CSGO skins gambling, then crypto gambling. I havnt lost a lot yet, but I honestly think its a problem. My idea of fun nowadays is booting up NordVPN, going to Stake, depositing crypto into the website, and gambling. I spend hours gambling, I dont lose much, but I also dont win much, I split even almost every night. But its all I can think about sometimes, when Im at school I think about gambling im gonna do when I get home. But I think my gambling might get me in trouble, im not even 18 (4 years away from it) yet and its almost all I think about sometimes. Do you guys think I should make an effort to quit?

Wait hold up, you're just 14 years old and you have already engaged in gambling?

I mean, it is very reassuring to hear that you acknowledged your problem at a very young age but when I was 14, my problem was entirely different from yours. Since you are just a teenager, try focusing on things that will help you prevent gambling. To be honest, I also gambled away my CSGO and DOTA 2 skins at a very young age but everything was lost during the process. While you are not yet losing anything, better to stop and focus onto different things.

Yes, that's a compliment.  Wink
So you have a cool Dad. Well, you have a good way to stop it if he works for that kind of service. But, can you really tell your Dad about it without him getting mad at you? If ever he will get angry, just take it. Parents will forget it the next day and just try to understand we always want the better for our kids, like you.
Good luck and may all the courage in the world be with you to tell the truth.

A very good start for you, dealing with gambling is not an easy task and since you are still young the chance of corrupting your entire mindsets are very possible, with that action that you are planning to do it will help you to utilize or remove gambling from your system, unless you'll remove the site then navigate to another one..

Still very possible that the desire or the urge to play will haunt you so much better to prepare yourself to make a counter. Make sure to keep yourself busy with other things. It may help you to forget about thinking of any possible strategy that will encircle inside you.

You are still young and there are many other things that you can do, divert your attention from physical activities. It will also help you to forget about gambling if you will take things seriously.

First step to recovery is admittance. Second step which you have taken is to find help/support. I'm guessing you have already looked through some other online resources before looking for help here. The symptoms you are experiencing now is mild and could easily be nipped in the bud if you want it to.

Lastly every human inherently knows what to do to quit a bad habit no matter what far they have gone or make better life choices. Find a quiet place and ask yourself what you should do to quit. When you find the answers, JUST DO IT.

That is good if you can ask your dad to block the gambling websites so you will feel difficult to visit the sites. But I think you need more than that to solve your addiction to gambling because, in the other chance, your addiction can telling you to play gambling using a VPN or open the block by asking for help from your dad. Hopefully, you can slowly reduce your time in gambling and use your time for the other positive things.

Hey guys! I just wanted to make this post to see whether or not you think that what I do for fun has turned into a problem, let me set the scene.
Gambling for fun is not a problem if you don't gamble with the amount you can't afford to lose or spend the fund which was meant for another financial issue.

My idea of fun nowadays is booting up NordVPN, going to Stake, depositing crypto into the website, and gambling.
Using a VPN for gambling is not advisable if you want to prevent problems that may make the gambling site freeze your fund.

I spend hours gambling, I dont lose much, but I also dont win much, I split even almost every night. But its all I can think about sometimes, when Im at school I think about gambling im gonna do when I get home. But I think my gambling might get me in trouble, im not even 18 (4 years away from it) yet and its almost all I think about sometimes. Do you guys think I should make an effort to quit?
Spending many hours in gambling, split almost every night, and having the thought of gambling everything even when doing something else is the signs of the beginning of gambling addiction.
Underage gambling is not encouraged, it will be better if you stop and if the gambling site detects that you're underage or using a VPN your account will freeze along with the fund in it.

My assessment is you are fast losing yourself, you could go from bad to worse, you are still good at this point because you are thinking of quitting, you still know the harmful effect that is going to come, there will be a boiling point when you are going to lose control, and hopefully, it will not happen, you have done the right thing asking this that means you are not in denial that you are gambling too much.

You have to make the right choice of moderating your gambling activity and you can do that by limiting your time and do other things that you love that can get you away from gambling, hang out with your family you're still young it's time to cultivate new passion, gambling should never become your passion.

I agree with you, I think 18 is the age where teens are looking for an identity to be their character as they grow up, so I think the OP still has plenty of time to fix all his bad behavior over the years, and of course by spending time on positive activities will certainly be able to slightly reduce the desire to gamble, in my opinion now it is better for the OP to prioritize his education rather than having to be involved in gambling so as not to risk ruining his future due to gambling addiction later.

18 is mature enough, I think OP needs to go for a therapy because it's hard to control your urges, it's unlikely that OP can control himself, you're saying he's young so that means that emotions are running high.

It's a big mistake if a child is not over 18 years old to decide to gamble, because it is still a child who is not allowed to gamble. Because they will
definitely become addicted if they don't stop immediately, children under 18 years old can't control their emotions properly. I agree with withdrawing
funds from gambling sites and stopping immediately, then stay away from all things related to gambling. For children under 18 it is better to focus
on school lessons, rather than thinking about gambling. If a child under the age of 18 does not stop immediately, it will destroy his or her future.
