Let's accept it all that there are addiction treatment techniques one can adopt to tackle the spirit of gambling addiction but how many of these techniques were being truly effective on gamblers, if we are into something and our mind is always there, it becomes a difficult task to see someone being an external force taking away what we love doing except we also wish to give up, same thing also applies to those being addicted, if they never determined on their own to quit addiction then any techniques adopted might be ineffective.

I think this is 100%. Any step toward a goal is a good thing, it doesn't matter how small.. but it has to be a REAL step. Setting a budget for some just isn't realistic because there is no oversight or they are just too far down the road of addiction. I mean, you would roll your eyes at someone saying- I'm just going to do one gram of coke a week..

Friends, family, strangers.. I think needs to be incorporated into whatver plan of action.

But the reality is that most of them find it difficult to limit themselves, especially when they get a win, when they get a win they can't limit themselves to take the existing winnings, but instead they continue the game by increasing the value of the bet in order to get a bigger win than they have already got. and when they lose too, when they lose they don't realize the defeat but they want to play again with the aim of wanting to restore the losses they have lost.

Yes that's right, if they can restrain themselves, limit themselves, they will not gamble excessively which makes the loss of money greater than what they have clearly experienced. By realizing the losses they can get they should have started to reduce the time of gambling which was often to rarely this will slightly help them reduce the risk of losing their money.

Regardless and you need to firm in terms of limiting yourself, both finances and time that you will going to use each time you play or each time you deal with your participation into gambling, if you can take that and not to allow yourself to exceed the chance is good that you will be able to avoid going deeper and lead your way to become addicted.

With control and limitation that you setup, there's no chance for any excessive participation which will allow you to quickly quit and stop each time you desire to quit.

Most of the addictions avoidance techniques are effective for those who haven't had hard cases of addiction in the past, e.g a newbie who is just coming into gambling can choose to make use of that system to stay away from addiction, which is the best thing to do at some point because for all the while, I have not seen any workable approach that can bring one out of addiction and helping him stay above such, and that is why, it is better to avoid gambling addictions because it can ruin your life at some point.
Most cases of gambling addictions are traceable to over-involvement and chasing a direction for so long, meanwhile, the best way to stay above that is never to state and always allocate limits to all your gambling activities regardless of what the result and outcome may be at the end.

But actually there are several tips so that a gambler doesn't get too far into an addiction, just consider gambling only to make the casino owner rich and always use very small amounts of money so you don't feel too sorry if you lose and don't let your mind expect a big win from gambling, that's impossible.
These tips can help us get used to thinking better to avoid addiction and can slowly leave gambling if you want.

Yes, it's true that giving advice to people who are addicted to gambling is a useless thing, like going in the right ear and going out the left ear so it's like the wind just passing by, they won't pay attention to what you say because all they think about is the gambling game.

and yes, it really takes a very strong stance and determination to really be able to cure yourself of gambling addiction and this needs to be done gradually and slowly because gambling addiction cannot just stop straight away, it takes quite a long time if the addict is already at that stage. which is serious.

That's the thing about gambling addiction, if the person himself doesn't want anything to change or have their addiction be controlled or managed then there's nothing out there to stop them. Just like any addiction, without any outside assistance or any hindrance or intervention from your friends or family, it'll be harder to stop.
Previously, some of my friends are advising me to stop gambling as most of my funds and money are being used for online gambling and I mostly lose but I got hooked when I've won on some of my gambling session but I never stop and listen to them until I realize that I don't have any money to spend and got into loans from my friends which made me decide to stop and control my gambling leisures.

Those who are addicted to gambling don't want to listen to advice from anyone, especially when they still have money. They will only listen to the voice of greed telling them to gamble. This requires hard work from the people around them so that people who are addicted to gambling can realize that they have a gambling addiction.

If they can and are willing to realize they are addicted to gambling and see what is happening to them, it will be easier to counsel them. They may be more likely to listen to what the people around them say and be willing to undergo further examination to determine the type of therapy.

That is why, before we experience gambling addiction, we must limit our gambling. We can do all the things we can to prevent us from experiencing gambling addiction. And if we are really serious about it, we will not get too deep into gambling and will not experience any problems.

Some things that must be mastered are being able to control oneself from emotions and greedy behavior because these two things are very important to protect oneself from gambling addiction. Most people who are addicted usually feel the emotion of losing a lot of money so they become uncontrolled to restrain themselves and end up spending a lot of money. to continue gambling until they become bankrupt and poor.

The average addict will not realize they have gone that far, but that is why it is very important for every beginner to think about preparing themselves to gamble, sometimes most of them always ignore every suggestion from other people even though it is very important for them to prepare themselves so they don't become addicted gamblers. , it is very difficult to cure someone who is addicted to gambling, so don't let that happen, prepare yourself to learn to control yourself.

It's true, things will always be a Challenge for Everyone , When a Player has the support of his family he has everything to win, well at least I see it this way, the family will always be the best support when you have an addiction, Addiction is one of the things that I think has the most problems in an instant and can last throughout life, for some people who do not have control because it can produce many negative effects, I have seen cases Where People Who are In Addiction even in Sports Betting, they lose their direction in such an impressive way that they end up doing crazy things, even trying their own Life , this is what I have Seen in some of the cases that deal with this in Colombia, they even reached a great point. where the person had not Been in Favor of the phone call from his own brother, well he did not Kill himself because at the Moment he made it he did not Answer him , and that Made him quickly go to his house to prevent and thank God could have prevented it, after that he Subjected him to Psychiatric treatment and he was able to Reconsider , to Work and because the debts he left were Significant , he is a Lawyer , and Until now I Imagine that he is still Working on it to pay Everything .

This is always a sample of what this person has been able to Experience in his time as a gambler, a person who couldn't control himself, he bet too Much , he didn't do an expense management plan, he just spent, lent money to his family , his Friends, and also the Banks , one of the things he said he wanted to kill himself was because of his large Debts, but that is very bad , Because those debts are left to him and they remain with the family , it is something It's very sad, so the family is the one who would have been hurt by all that , I think that things when it comes to how to do things in order to avoid things you always have to do them, don't mess around so much, don't do unnecessary things to prove Something , You always have to Find a way to establish the Best way to Take care of your Money.

Giving advice to gambling addicts will only be in vain because for gambling addicts only their plans are the most appropriate and whatever happens the best advice is only from something that comes out of their own mind so it would be in vain to give budget advice or whatever.
If it's about curing addiction, you don't need to go directly to the doctor and ask for help from medical experts to cure addiction, but it would be better if it all started from yourself to recover from your addiction and the right way is to just instill a strong stance to reduce your gambling budget. But still, it all depends on your own convictions and desires without any coercion from other people.

You have a point, It's quite difficult to give them an advice about setting a budget if we are aware that the gambler is having an addiction, possible they can't control their spending habit as well as their self. They need an assistance and support from the medical experts as well as from their family who really cares about them. though it is a situational issues, It's better to at least giving a try to set a budget also seeking medical help so that gamblers can make a better decision for theirself.

Making a budget might seem like a quick fix when the real problem is an addiction that has been going on for a long time. When someone is caught up in the whirlwind of addiction, can we really expect them to stick to their budget? In a way, isnt that setting them up for more fails and heartaches?

But one could also think that taking steps, even if they are small ones like making a budget, could be the first thing that helps someone who is struggling with addiction become more aware. Addiction is like a web with many layers. What some people think is a bad plan could be a life-saving move for someone else. Again, though, its important to remember that addicts need more than just a budget; they need full-on help and rescue.

That's right, with regular and consistent discipline it will have a positive impact or good impact on ourselves, For example, suppose a heavy gambler who has regretted his gambling that has harmed himself and he begins to realize his regret and wants to stop with gambling, Now if he can gradually reduce the time they play gambling with discipline and consistency they can definitely stop and leave gambling as long as they are disciplined and consistent in improving their lives.  Even though they get support or encouragement after encouragement advice after advice issued by friends, relatives, even their family, it will not change themselves for the better if within themselves there is no awareness and sense of wanting to stop gambling. So before family, friends and relatives, they must themselves first with the intention in themselves, after there is an intention from themselves, then family and relatives or the closest people give them support.

It is not easy and not everyone can have good self-control in gambling, many of them play carelessly who only expect big wins without thinking about the risks they will face. Naturally like that because I myself also recognize the difficulty of controlling myself when gambling, right what you said, the high energy of the game that can attract all people to play by promising big wins but the original is ZERO. Looking back there are already successful through gambling, maybe luck is on their side so they can succeed through gambling no matter how small the value of the bet if they are lucky, they will win. on the other hand, no matter how big the value of the bet if you are not lucky, you will not get a win. People who are wise in gambling have discipline and self-control they live happily even though they like to gamble why is that? Because it is self-control good mindset discipline and can regulate emotions.
So in my opinion there are several things that must be mastered or possessed if we are going to gamble so that there is no severe addiction to gambling. Because I think everyone will regret their addiction that harms themselves but it's not easy that regret will come, they have to feel at the lowest point of addiction. So they can realize the loss they feel due to gambling addiction.

First I don't think this guide is necessary for an addicts,  because gambling budgets is main to stop you from sliding into addictions since your primary aim of setting up the budget is to prevent you from going overly too much into gambling and such doesn't go well with addicts since he is already in the mole already.

What an addict need at that point a help to withdraw from the addiction and if possible should be 100% withdrawal,  so having a budget to gamble with as an addict is a big set-up because he will never go over with such a mindset as budget since the addictions won't allow him to operate within that budget limits.

If we are the kind of gamblers that listen to advise whenever we are given anyone, then we should know that there are some of the ways we behave while gambling that needs to be cautioned, gambling can be all about freedom but not when we are taking it all in our hands abusing everything for our own selfish and personal desires, we must know how to apply a limitation to it whenever such is necessary, also, we should know that everything is not all about gambling concerning is, we should create time in doing other things perfectly well as expected.

The case is on two direction, have you considered the situation whereby you discover that a gambler is suffering and wandering around without having anyone to help him out from his family than his friends he made through gambling, same also is the situation when you discover that another gambler take his family as serious as anything else without having friends in mind because they stood by them all times of challenges, the conclusion is that we will find ourselves the way we appear with our relationship to either of them both.

It doesnt mean that you cant really stop all by yourself which it is really that totally contradictory on which it would really be needing for your own self control on trying out to handle things and with your own self will then you could really be able to make yourself that do all the things that you should really be needing to do. If you are on a situation on which your gambling addiction is already that too severe then it would really be just that so normal that you would really be needing to lower down your engagement and spending time with it not only on the time but also on the money that you are allocating.

Dont wait up for the moment that time will come that you have been financially devastated with gambling and this is something that must avoided thing in the first place.
Gambling isnt that bad as long you do make yourself that responsible, but if not? Sooner or later you would really be able to taste up the consequences on dealing up with gambling on irresponsible manner.
This is why you should really be that always mindful and always that active when it comes on dealing up with things.

This is really good. Addicted gamblers need this to help themselves because they have to control themselves whenever they are in the hot seat. On the budget, they should set it base on their salary in the weekly or monthly basis. The drugs and alcohol drinking will need a special counseling committee for them because they take them to motivate their spirits.

In addition they need to rest under a tree or flowers with soft drink to think how to solve the hard puzzles. As you said, they need to relax and eat good food dress well and look good and go to event place and dance with friends
