This only happens when the person involved is not an addict, if he eventually becomes an addict taking a break can never be an option, instead he or she will even go further to do anything to satisfy him or herself, addicted gamblers don't see losing as anything because the believe that they can win anytime, when they lose, they strategize and go for more, I think at this point there is no adding that's going to be useful to this person, unless God is involved to salvage the situation if not, you being the adviser might end up having issue with him or her, the question might come from him to you, he might say is the money your own, why not allow me to do what I like, I think this situation is complicated.

On the time that you are?

- Forgetting your main priorities
- Spending more time with gambling
- Spending more money with  it
- Putting up some compromise with other important things

Its a solid indication that you are really that addicted to gambling and curing it or quitting will really be that just not that easy.
Although we can quit if we do really meant it but we know that not all people would be having that kind of mental strength on which they
can able to do such thing.

Be responsible on the time that you do gamble then you wont be experiencing any problems or consequences if you
are that mindful about your actions and wary about those things which needs to be prioritize and things which are needed
to be that avoided.

It's a fruit of being dominated of addiction, instead of taking it as positive advice most of the time it will be misinterpreted and the person who are drown with his addiction will simply ignore whatever he heard from those people who loves him and care for him, he will start moving away or ignoring whatever things that those people are trying to help help coping with this bad vice that he's addicted with.

However, if he manages to listen and take it as a good way to help him then the possible outcome will be for betterment and will
lead him to recover.

Beginners should be able to look at experienced gamblers to model what should be done when gambling precisely when getting a loss and victory, although the decision is entirely up to them but there is nothing wrong with looking at experienced gamblers in dealing with various things in gambling. By studying the experience that an experienced gambler has, they can take good examples for them to do and practice in gambling to avoid excessive risk. So there is nothing wrong with seeing or taking experience from those who are experienced.

They also have to avoid dissatisfaction as well as eliminate it so as not to chase bigger wins when they have won, even if it is small there is nothing wrong with them cashing it in, unless they are ready for the risks that will occur but unfortunately some of them do not think about the risks that will occur so they are not ready for the risks, and cannot accept the defeat they get. They should be able to correct their own mistakes and not be upset with what they get. If only they can learn from the past that's also good.

The little experience they have, they should be able to make it a lesson, whether they win or lose, there will definitely be things that can be used as experience for them in the future. And actually in my opinion do not have to have experience to gamble, they can take experience from other people who have been gambling for a long time to make their own learning, by knowing what to do like those who have experience maybe they can minimize the risks involved. Experienced gamblers should also be able to give good direction to those who are beginners about things to avoid and things to do. As you said making gambling as a purpose for entertainment, that's what they should teach novice gamblers.

You are right, the defeat that has occurred should not be used as a grudge and take it out by gambling and chasing wins that can cover the defeat that has occurred, because this will only make it difficult for them later. The defeat that has occurred should be used as a lesson for the future, that when gambling and taking arbitrary actions because it can lead to fatal mistakes. In my opinion, the defeats that have occurred are better forgotten and not remembered, let alone gambling for revenge is just stupid, the host will not give victory after they have lost a lot even though they have run out of money because the bookie will not care about them which the bookie will only focus on the profits they have to get.

Seeing the red flag of expanding bets to recover losses is the first step, but its often ignored. Gambling takes use of intricate mental processes. Theres more to it than luck or money. Remember risk, reward, and self-control. When one chases loses, rationality retreats. Hope outweighs judgment, a slippery slope. "Just one more gamble" leads to deception. When does gambling become a problem? When one ignores financial and emotional constraints.

If one cant stop, professional aid is essential. Understand your compulsions, not simply your willpower. Knowledge of human behavior and responsible gambling is crucial. Recognizing you need help is a first step toward recovering control.

I think that the first step is to acknowledge that you are going a bit far and this is easy to detect if you are having the good will of doing so.For example when you see that you are depositing more and more to chase losses and to recover your money which lead to more lost money it is the red flag that everyone should stop and think what are they doing,if they stop at this moment and most likely think cold headed they will realize that they have to take a break because things aren't going well at all.If people do not stop at this moment then they need professional help.

Yes, this is a big problem that concerns not only gambling: many people think that they can figure everything out only based on their experience. And here this can be said to be a “natural” assumption since gambling is entertainment and what could be dangerous in entertainment? But in fact, there are many pitfalls and dangers, so ideally, a beginner in gambling should first familiarize himself with the theory and only then try practice.

Yes, gamblers should be willing to listen to other people's advice and try to think positively that there are still people who care and pay attention to us when we make a wrong move or gamble too much, with the aim that we don't suffer. There are many losses in gambling, but if the person is easily emotional, misunderstandings will arise and he will easily ignore other people's advice, so it is a loss if he underestimates good advice even though it is actually for our own good.
And with this concern we can also reduce and prevent us from becoming addicts and when we are in a casino the atmosphere will change, from what was previously fine, it does not rule out the possibility of becoming hostile. and we must avoid things like that as much as possible, in order to maintain emotional control and not cause new problems in gambling.

Recognizing the negative impact gambling has had on your life is a crucial step towards healing. Self-introspection is essential in understanding the underlying reasons behind your gambling behavior. Reflect on the emotions, thoughts, and situations that trigger your urge to gamble. Identifying these triggers can help you develop coping mechanisms and avoid situations that put you at risk of relapse.

I dont think advices from other people would work for addicted people, because their logic on the matter has been overshadowed by addictive desire. the importance to have trusted people around is to be a good listener and to find alternative activities that can reduce the times spent on gambling.

someone who gives us advice, of course he really cares about us not getting into bad zone of the impact gambling and of course someone who gives us advice has already experienced bad things so I agree with you both, if you listen to advice from anyone, you need to listen to it, even if its not we always have to do something to ensure that we can listen well, of course we can consider it one day when we almost have a bad experience.

I really understand the bad zones in gambling and what bad effects must be avoided and it all does not start from my own experience but also advice from other gamblers.

The challenge is that if we have not made up our mind to listen or ready to take advise that is given to us then we are simply going to waste the person's time, it is going to be like water on a stone. Sometimes it is our readiness to receive such advise that makes it work otherwise such efforts will be futile.  Like someone who is still addicted will later go back to gambling if he has not been convinced in himself to stop and seek for help, you can't help someone whose mind is not prepared for it or it will take a longer effort to get such persons out of their addiction.

That way they can minimize the risks and losses that exist, with the experience that someone has will make lessons for the future when they gamble again, maybe they can limit gambling that has a big risk.
Also novice gamblers tend to be easily attracted by new halls such as promotions provided by gambling which is the goal to attract the attention of many people to play at gambling, For those who already have experience maybe they already understand the existing promotions, so they are not too enthusiastic about the promotions provided by gambling so they behave normally, but for beginners when they get information about promotions maybe they will immediately look for it and return to play with the existing promotion rules, but do not realize that it is just a pull so that they play longer at gambling so that the bookie gets more profit. and for beginners they should be able to play longer at gambling so that the bookie gets more profit. And for beginners they should be able to interpret gambling correctly, I mean don't make gambling the main income or a quick money maker.

Gambling's danger and addiction pose unique mental concerns. Recognize that even with self-imposed boundaries, old habits might return. Why? Gambling thrills sometimes trump reasonable thought, sending even the wisest into a downward spiral.

The key, then, lies not just in self-control but also in self-awareness. You showed this by setting limits. Moderation constancy is harder than it seems. The mind can always relapse after addiction. Can this control last? Or is it a temporary veil over an underlying issue? One must constantly review their connection with gambling to prevent it from taking over. Vigilance helps.

Listening to someone who shows care about us is the best way, though most of the time it is being taken for granted, I believe that with an open mind and willingness to move forward, even you are at first got too much into addiction time will come and will lead you to right direction if that self-will inside you overpower and dominates whatever involvement you've got to eny extent of gambling participation or worse to the point of gambling addictions.

You've highlighted very notable and helpful points, but on thing about addiction is that, at that point nothing else matters other than what you're addicted to, when a gamblris addicted, even when he realizes he needs help, and he's given some tips that'd help him fight the addiction, sticking to those tips is another battle, maybe he can try to do it for he first and second day, but that's it. So here are some points I feel would also be helpful to help fight the addiction faster.
1. AVOID BEING ALONE
You're likely to thing about doing things you're trying to get away from when you're alone or lonely, s try always being around people and friends ( who don't encourage gambling) they say you're likely to be like who you hang around with, so always handlg around people and avoid being alone at all time, except you're alone busy with something.

2. LOOK FOR A NEW HOBBY
You got addicted to gambling because you got too attached and used to it, so changing your hobby and finding something else tht excites you would really help you in getting rid of your addiction quickly.

3. GET A TRUSTED PERSON TO MANAGE YOUR FUNDS
If you're addicted to gambling, another way that can help you fight the addiction is looking for someoneyou trust to help you manage your funds, it could be your colleague at work, your secretary, your spouse or anyone you trust. That way you don't have easy access to your funds and can't gamble at will.

Yes, not only giving advice to yourself but also self-introspection about how far you have gone in gambling, whether it has given you happiness or chaos. If you really feel like you are in chaos, you should never continue gambling or place bets again to avoid addiction because gambling too deeply is indeed very difficult to cure. Moreover, sometimes it is difficult to listen to other people's advice.

I have experienced chaos before, but after thinking for a long time, doing self-introspection, I finally gradually reduced the bad habit of gambling without knowing the time, that's why now I prefer to gamble by limiting money and time without having to worry about addiction, because I have learned to be a more consistent gambler. being wise and responsible, that is the most important thing because it is difficult to rely on other people if we don't start from ourselves.

I don’t know what advice to give to gamblers to win the jackpot or teach them to win constantly because it simply doesn’t exist. But what I know for sure is that successful gamblers are able to accept losses steadfastly and without emotion. They have their own strategy, which does not have to be repeated. You can have your own no less successful one, which will bring you profit over time. You just don't need your emotions to take control of you. Of course, not everyone succeeds in this, but this is one of the most important elements, without it it is better not to go to gambling sites. You won’t be able to learn to control your emotions right away, you need to gradually immerse yourself in it.

Professional gamblers already know what is involved in gambling so they can use gambling properly. Meanwhile, other gamblers don't know anything and are just trying to chase the win, which won't be as easy as they imagine. Professional gamblers have indeed experienced losses, but they can overcome bigger losses because they already know how. This is what most gamblers must learn so that they don't experience even bigger losses. Professional gamblers will also not be greedy in getting a win because if they have won, they can stop themselves to reduce tension and also to prevent the next loss in gambling.

If most gamblers could learn from professional gamblers by not chasing too many winnings, they could prevent their losses from getting bigger and could feel that what they got was actually enough and there was no need to chase wins because it would be difficult for them. They also know what to do if they win or lose because they have learned a lot from professional gamblers so they can be wiser in using gambling. The experience they gain is very useful for them because they can learn from their experience so they can overcome bigger losses. They can prevent the risk of bigger losses because they know that if they experience a lot of losses, it will make their emotions increase and can cause a loss of control and in the end, they will only experience more losses.

Realizing that this experience will be useful for them will make them wiser in responding to gambling and will not gamble excessively. They will also continue to learn to control themselves when gambling because that is what can prevent them from experiencing defeat. Self-control can also make them aware that gambling is just entertainment and that they should not overdo it in gambling.

In fact, beginner or inexperienced gamblers can learn from their experience even though they haven't had much experience. They can also learn from other people's experiences so that they can add to their lessons and be wise when playing gambling. They also will not gamble carelessly because they must continue to use gambling as entertainment without any other purpose.

Studying the experiences we have or other people's experiences can provide knowledge about gambling and can give us the methods we should use when gambling so that we can reduce the risks posed by gambling. Even though it is difficult to learn, we should still try because it can increase our knowledge.

Marking their losses does not mean they have to chase them because they know that chasing their wins will be difficult to do, and even though they use more money, they can still win or recover their losses. Professional gamblers will not worry about losses that have occurred because they know that winning and losing in gambling is part of gambling and if they have lost in a row, they can only stop gambling. They will not continue gambling because it could cause other problems, which might become bigger if they lose control of themselves. That is why we must be able to take lessons from every experience we have from gambling or learn from other people's experiences so that we can use them for ourselves to prevent more losses in gambling.

Advising is good behavior and a good step to prevent someone from gambling excessively, besides that apart from prevention there is another meaning, namely the presence of someone's attention and concern for us because they have taken the time to advise us so that the future will be even better and for that reason It's good if we listen and try to do what he says.

The huge experienced gambler will lay the game continuously after the continuous loss,they will mark all the loss in the gambling by keep of the records.The gambler can improve their game by daily playing the game,because as like trading the gambler can able to learn the gambling by making the many games.So don't worry for the small losses in the gambling sites.One day the same gambling sites will give you huge compared to your complete loss in the gambling site.Many old gambler will say you to quit the gambling by seeing your continuous losses,you need to overcome this using the strong win in the gambling with some patience.
