Topic: Accessing gambling sites only on desktop as a means to prevent addiction - page 5. (Read 350 times)

I'd like to share with the community a humble trick I've seen helping me and also many others.

As we all know gambling these days has become very easy to reach all aspects of our lives. You can play at home with online casinos, you can verify yourself without having to get any physical documents thanks to eID etc. You can even play from your bed thanks to mobile apps and mobile friendly gambling websites.

Well the approach is quite simple. Just as those working from home will share a pro tip that they have compartmentalized their work space from their living space to be separate, so they can live the rest of their day before and after work peacefully... Under the same principle it might be best to just not login to your gambling account on mobile.

If you have  pressing obligations, if you have a strict budget or limits, which to be real we all do in some way or another, it's best to compartmentalize your gambling also. Only do it at a certain spot on a certain machine. Don't bring it everywhere and don't open up the possibility of playing everywhere all the time.

That's it basically. It's what I do also. For me it's a preventative measure to save time but also prevent addiction or financial ruinage. For others it might be a recovery tactic. Who knows. You can try it or tell us how it has worked for you if you already tried.
