There are times that whenever your family and your friend advise to you about stopping on gamble, you keep on ignoring them, you do not listen to them anymore even though they care so much to you and when you deny them then you may consider yourself having a compulsive gambling disorder, you don't care anymore to anyone, the only thing you want is gambling.
I suggest that if you feel that you are like that, you may visit some professionals to help you.

When their family knows that one of their family members playing gambling, they can remind that person not to playing gambling every day because playing gambling is not good for their money. But if you cannot listen to them and still playing gambling, your family can let you decide if playing gambling will bring a chance to make money or not because they already remind you, but you still deny them.

I think your family will care with you even if you have a compulsive gambling disorder, and they will take you to visit some professionals to help you.

Everyone could change even those compulsive gamblers,
They only need to find the right motivation and all the support that they could get from their family and friends.
They also need to find a better hobby to keep them away from gambling.

I think I can pass as a compulsive gambler based on your description, After some regrets and realization, I got decided to reduce my activity and start changing myself. I've been a gambling addict for years and wasting countless money on my addictiveness. Friends and foes tried to change me before but I can't stop being the same, It's hard to get rid of being a compulsive gambler but it is possible. Try slowing down the activities and putting a limitation on yourself. It's almost a year since I start to change and it brings a significant change to my life. I also didn't seek professional help for my addiction. Just some deep realization I was able to change.

Changing is not impossible.

Changing is indeed not impossible if you are really willing to change. If you are already a compulsive gambler it would be very hard to stop in a snap because gambling is already in your system and that you don’t have the ability to control it and you don’t care about the people around you. In this case, the only person that can truly help is your own self, if you will be determined enough to stop being that person then you can, you don’t have to stop immediately but you have to stop little by little until such time you’ll be a able to better control you gambling habits.

What kind of realization needs that someone to actually stop their being compulsive gambler? If they can't stop themselves from doing it then what could be the other people's advice gonna do if he wouldn't listen to them? Only he himself can stop what he has been doing, it's only time can tell what would be going to happen to that person before he could realize what was lost to him.
If someone cant able to stop no matter how hard he tried then advice from the outside would be pointless or useless because he isnt willing to stop no matter what happens due to his addiction.
Mostly people do only stop when they do already experience unfortunate events into their lives like being on deep debt, broken up families and other related things which focuses on financial
and emotional aspects.Once these things are gradually disappearing into your life then thats the time you would realize that you've done something very wrong.
If we dont like for these things to happen then we should be sensible into your actions.

The whole casino and gambling industry is base on compulsive gambling.
Casinos make more money when a gambler keeps on gambling and gambling while they are losing their money. They "push" you to make a lot of bets and keep betting again and again in order to start losing and keep gambling non-stop in order to make money from this activity.

I think it is just enticing but not forcing us to make a bet.  Remember whether we play in a casino or not depends wholly on our own discretion.  Why blaming casinos for players that succumb to gambling because of their lack of discipline and concern for themselves and their families?



An addicted gambler doesn't really know what he is already addicted simply by that he will always deny that he is truly addicted only the people surrounds him can sure see that he is under influence of addiction and because he is denying that he is already addicted he would not seek any medical or psychological help by himself it will always fall under to his relatives and friends to call for that but he must willingly want to take action for that change for the medication to work.

That is why they need their family to tell them about the problem.  It may not succeed for the first time but with persistence and concerns, talking to the person with gambling problem calmly will enable to open their minds about and think that something is wrong with them.  Self-denial that they are addicted is another reason why compulsive gambling will never recover by themselves and need intervention from their loved ones to undergo rehabilitation.

There are so many gamblers in this virtual world. Some can still control themselves, and there are also who can not control themselves when they are already in the form of the long table with a full of card any bet of different gamblers, and those are considered as Compulsive gambling.

First things first, compulsive gambling is the uncontrollable eagerness on gambling, even though you keep on losing the game, you forgot to do some valuable things than gambling and forgetting to spend your spare time with your family and in a way that you don't mind how much money you spend and how much money you already to the game. 

In my opinion, Compulsive gambling will fall under addiction, Sure gambling could be a trigger to that compulsiveness in the first place and by keeping on doing it, It surely falls to addiction.

There are times that whenever your family and your friend advise to you about stopping on gamble, you keep on ignoring them, you do not listen to them anymore even though they care so much to you and when you deny them then you may consider yourself having a compulsive gambling disorder, you don't care anymore to anyone, the only thing you want is gambling.

Well said, if a person is a compulsive gambler then it only means that he is addicted on gambling, those who cannot control himself from betting, they cannot be considered as a compulsive gambler when he can still control himself from playing a gamble, or even he cannot limit himself from that. The thing is they really need a psychiatrist to be cured, having some advise from family and friend wasnt enough to be cured, it will really requires some professionals like a psychiatrist to stop him from being a compulsive gambler, well, they are expert and they really know the best solution for those persons.

I have read some articles about a gambler that has been cured because of visiting a professionals, so I believed that the best way for them to stop being addicted are those professionals and not their family and friends. Well, family and friends can stop them too, but if they already did their best, but nothing happens, then they may ask help for professionals.

Honestly, it sounds like a medical term because I never hear about "compulsive gambling". As far as I am concerned, addicted gambling is what gamblers are doing without control on themselves. From your description I understand you are referring just addicted gambling and I believe we have already have lots of discussions and suggestions across this forum for addicted gamblers.

Gamblers lose their control over the time because gambling makes them excited over their gambling activities which lead them to forget themselves so they are losing all the controls. When gamblers are not regular to gambling then the chances for getting addicted is very less which means they will keep their control intact. So, we must gamble responsibly and with frequent breaks.

And how's that supposed to work in practice?

As you say yourself, "compulsive gambling is the uncontrollable eagerness on gambling" (personally, I would say urge or obsession, but it doesn't really matter). If you don't listen to your family and your friends anymore, if you don't care about anyone, what on earth is going to make you listen to some advice here (or elsewhere in the Internet, for that matter)? Just curious
I got your point, but there are still cases that gamblers are being cured because of the professionals, but have you think that before they visit some professionals, they have passed the advise from their family and friends, of course, that would happen because the only person that would care so much to you is your family and friends, so for sure they already gave some advise, but I think it wasn't enough because it turns into visiting some professionals.
There will be no psychiatrist if all of the disorders can be cured of their own family and friends, so we have still professionals, especially those psychiatrist that can heal you from being a compulsive gambler, they have mastered their degree about the behavior of the person, so they really know how to cure those individuals, family and friend were no enough they will still need the help of a psychiatrist for better result.

Being a compulsive in gambling replaced by a compulsive way of trading? yeah that's sort of similar to what you've been before and it's still the same risk that you do

People don't see the forest for the trees

For those who are not familiar with the phrase, it means, according to some Internet dictionary, being "too involved in the details of a problem to look at the situation as a whole” (no offense, no pun, no plagiarism intended). More specifically, the problem is not with the addiction as such (compulsive gambling, compulsive trading, or compulsive whatever). Put shortly, it is the consequences that matter

It is in human nature to be addicted to, or be passionate about, or be obsessed with, something or somebody. The truth is, without being truly addicted to something in a positive sense (as far as consequences are concerned), it is impossible to reach any meaningful level of success in virtually anything. So if you are addicted to gambling or trading, and it pays off handsomely, go for it and enjoy the ride. If it doesn't, get addicted to something that does
I like your explanation and understood the point of what you have said. And it's understandable that if something like gambling or trading comes into fruition, you wouldn't call that kind of success as addiction because it's on the positive side.

But if goes negatively, that's where the negative call out starts, addiction, failure, etc.

I can say that I am a compulsive gamblers before because I am really like that back, to the point that I forget my responsible to my partner because of gambling every day, I lose my body, I missed my weight I do not even do eating because of that, I am so addicted on gambling before, but now, I can say that I passed being a compulsive gambler because I can control myself now, I only play once a week, and sometimes no play in one week, but for me, it is better because I can no focus on my friend, family, and partner, I do not waste my time, efforts and money anymore in nothing, and for sure in future, I will really forget and remove it in my life. I will become a better person if I do that thing.
It just means that gambling can negatively impact your life, it is the reason why having self-discipline is a must because it will help you manage yourself as you gamble. My friend had experienced the same thing, it affects not only his financial status but also his health. He end up losing his weight because of poor sleep and appetite, it makes me realize how bad it would be if you just allow yourself end up on that situation. Well he recovered from his past and learned his lesson which makes me proud because I know how difficult it is to fight addiction.

Always reminding each other on how to avoid gambling addiction would be an advantage for us to know our limitations. We all have our goals and that is to gain a good profit but sometimes being too eager to win in gambling might lead us into wrong decisions so we have to keep on reminding each other about the risks of being greedy. Its mind over matter and prevention is better than cure even when it comes to gambling.

Handling too much of that they could handle and gambling money that they can't afford to lose are two things that drive a compulsive gambler to continue gambling, there's no turning back because they know so much about gambling and they think that they have the best strategy so they continue to bet and roll the dice thinking the next roll is their ticket to recover all their losses, they are not going to realize how to stop they need outside help, from family and close friends whom they can trust.

It is terrible if we are addicted to gambling because you already get the experience so you can share what you face in the past. You can warn other people to stay away from the addicting by having control of gambling. We can get cured of the addicting with helping other people because to quit gambling and control ourselves will not easy. I hope that you can become a better person in the future because you already have a bad experience before.

Every individual has a different mindset and at least they have good and bad side thoughts, therefore I feel someone who suffers from compulsive gambling can still bring himself to be released from the shackles. Indeed, when someone has suffered badly then the mindset is no longer good and can no longer be controlled, but at those times at least they still have a good awareness so that, at that time someone must be able to realize if there is something change in him that must be stopped as fast as possible. If they can realize this before it gets too severe, then professional help is not needed and again, to be able to keep your mindset healthy and do everything with good consideration.
                     For some people they need to experience it forst hand in order for them to understand what's good and bad for them. That is also the main reason why some gamblers are seriously addicted while some are able to control themselves. Being a gambler for fun is good but sometimes there are people who cannot control their emotions.

when i see this thread i felt that this is for me to read. I called my self in last years got addicted to gamble. First, it because i felt boring, then it felt exciting. But lately, it feels that if i didn't do it ( even when i know i will lose ) i feel i had to do it. Now it times to end this thing since i had nothing to use for gamble except my life. Lol, but never takes this as a joke to u. I am now at bottom of hell, but i believe i will rise because i work hard to achieve good things in my life. And i will try to keep my mind sane since gambling just for fun not for your life.

Definitely the best way to fix this kind of gambling problem.  But the person should identify that he has that problem and acknowledge or admit it himself.  Nothing can be done if the player is on the phase of rejection because his door is closed to rehabilitation.  We agree that family can help but the first act of change should be done by the person himself.
