Payment Gateway Allows Recurring Payments

Quote from: Asmonist on December 16, 2017, 01:27:28 AM

I don't think so. I'm really not into gambling games. I am more on investing. I believe that I'm not addicted to gambling because I do not risk that much. I'm really afraid to get losses. But there are circumstances that I really cannot resist. What I mean is how I disburse my money aside or excluding gambling. I think I'm still aware what I'm doing.

Your words will tell you that you aren't really addicted to gambling, you are more with investing so it means you had enough time to invest rather than to gamble. If you are afraid to get losses, what do you think about losing with your investments aren't you afraid with it?

Addiction is something you are not aware of doing it.

I had to agree with it, sometimes we don't think that when we are really addicted.

I gamble but i'm not addicted in gambling. Because gambling for me is for the pastimes activity only,and just want to enjoy when bored, and if i have a free time only. I think there's a lot of gamblers are already addicted to gambling, because they don't know how to control their feelings. I think so proud that i'm not addicted to gambling, don't take advantages and don't be greedy when you gamble. Just play it for fun only, and when you already addicted to gambling we cannot control ourselves.

Yes i am used to be addicted to gambling , cause the power of money , it's so strong that i can't resist. But for now i already realise, you can't earn money to pay for your needs by lucks. Lucks are not with us all the time and when it's not with us, we're raging, we're risking everything and we lost all. But i know one guy ( only one ) who still be addicted to gambling but he still won cause he controls his feelings very good. So your life your choice.

It's good that you already realise that gambling is measuring someones's luck. That someone you are talking about knows how to control the money he has, maybe everytime he wons he keep some money for his savings or for the needs of his family or he is lucky enough to win sometimes.

That's one lucky guy if I may say, because not all people given that chance to get a luck to win and he was able to keep some savings on his winnings. Most gamblers who are addicted are already in the influence of money they need more money because its either to chase their loses or they are tempted to get more money. That's why it's really important to control yourself not to get too addicted in gambling.

Yes, it's always about knowing how to control yourself and your money. No matter how addicted you are to gambling, when you have goals that you should keep some money if ever you win and you know how to limit yourself when your loosing then that mean you know how to balance your greed.

NO, it is matter how addicted we are in gambling, when anyone become addicted then he has no goals and also no control on his greed.
Then how could he balance in his greed?
Addiction is disease and it could easily destroy of our self control. So it is right if we always know how to control ourself and our money, then this stage will never come when we become addicted in gambling.

Most of the time those who are addicted to gambling are first and foremost very desperate, they have one goal in mind and that is to win money for whatever reasons they are gambling for in the first place, they may think that they have total control over their actions but that does not seem to be the case at all.

I think i'm addicted to gambling because without gambling and feel lonely when i did not go gamble. Gambling is so addictive if we don't think the risky things that will happen. I always go gamble even if i lose. Because gambling for me is having fun and chance to earn profit. I think i'm addicted to gambling, because i spend too much time and money until my money is gone, i always think how to win in gambling especially in the jackpot.

At least you have taken the first step recognizing that you have a problem but now you need to take the next steps and that is to stop gambling, look for something else to entertain yourself so you do not think about gambling all the time, find a hobby something that you enjoy doing besides gambling.

Yeaaa you might will have to face gambling problem and stay away from it step by step.
You cannot do that all at once , realizing and make a real move to do a self-instropection then looking for help is a big progress.
Rather than just think about it without doing anything and just gamble again in another day.

It is human nature that everyone just goes toward money. No one in this world who don’t want money. So people get addicted to gambling when they intended to earn money from it but they failed and got addicted. So as you said, it will not the process of all at once, rather you will be doing it in one by one step. Leave it gradually as it will not directly affect you.

your right mate,every one of us are looking for money,thats why most of the gambler become addicted because of greediness in winnings and even sometimes they are winning bigger than expected still they keep on betting for the reason maybe luck is on thier side and they coukd get more winnings that sometimes in the end,losing is what they get

Money , yeaaa it will always about money when you are struggle trying to leave .
The reason is you need that instant money but you cannot get it and just keep trying play against the house edge.
That's what mostly called as an addict , the one who have a lot of excuses to stay , yeaaa a non sense excuse.

If you ask me, i used to addicted to gambling but stopped after suffer big losses even though i'm still in profit.

since earlier gambling was a part of my life and i always looking toward gambling and making some extra money in btc . but i always get loss in the gambling . so now i had exit it for lifetime .

Making such life changing decisions require a very strong personality and an iron will to fight all the temptations and mind games . People should know that such persons exist whenever they feel week or incapable of achieving such things in life . As for myself , gambling is just a way to escape the stress i endured during the work .

No i used to be addicted to gambling all the money i had decided to use for trading i thought to gamble with it first and then withdraw i didn't control myself and even after i got a profit i ended up with a loss after that i decided to stop gambling forever since then i am no more addicted to gambling and hope it will continue like this

but to me i think i am really addicted to gambling, in fact i always found it difficult to quit gambling, as i have tried for so many time but for every time i remain as unsuccessful and start playing gambling again after some time. i think once people become addicted to gambling then it become difficult for them to quit it for ever.

Quiting an addiction is always difficult but you are the one that must remain in control, if you want to stop gambling then you need to stop putting yourself in positions where gambling is expected from you and if you used to gamble online then you need to avoid those websites, block them with a filter and forget about them.

If someone is truly determined about doing something, nothing can stop him. He may fail once, twice or thrice but striking again and again will definitely make him victorious one day. Gambling is a very addictive game but that does not mean addicts can't recover. Everything comes down to the gambler himself. Make a decision and do not turn back on your words.

Of course addicted people can recover but I have known some people that went through that and they tell me that it was hell, and I believe them and the issue is that there is always the temptation to go back to their old ways, so you never know if they are going to relapse again into addiction.

No I don’t think that I'm addicted to gambling. At first I might and almost got myself addicted to gambling but because of some experiences that happened I kinda distance myself when it comes to gambling. I don’t want to feel that same carelessness about how I continue on betting until I almost reached out to my limit and place it all. As long as I don’t affect anyone and had a good grasp over my finances then there are no other reasons to be responsible being in to gambling.

I'm not an addict now i use to be one, the same thing happened with me too i lost all my coins and my addiction ended. it's the fear of losing again makes me to not to gamble too much.

Yes, I agree with you. However, some people, including me, fear failure but they always hope that they will win again in the next game. When do you stop gambling? When you are about to go in a big debt that you cannot afford to pay it back later. That is why people should know their limits and when to stop gambling for their own sake. Some people thought of attempting to suicide because they were in big debs due to gambling.

Gambling addiction is a desease. If you're addicted, trust me you will know it. I don't think that i'm addicted because i gamble from a long time and i learned to control my self. Getting addicted to gambling drowns you in debts and you don't want that.

I do not know if I would call gambling a disease after all it is not caused by a virus or a bacteria, or something failing in your body, addictive gambling is a learned behavior and you will have to unlearn it, it is a very difficult road but it is possible since many people have stopped gambling and recovered their lives.

Gambling addiction can not be eliminated unless you start busy with lots of other income, many gamblers can not leave it because they hang everything from gambling, I think it's wrong. I am also addicted but never so bad. My trick is to try not to focus fully just to gamble and share more time with other businesses.

True, as the study shows, addiction cannot be cured, it can be controlled but will pop up anytime if it is triggered. So as much as possible people should avoid getting addicted to gambling because once it started, it will be a hell of a mess and it takes time to control it. As for me I am not addicted to gambling because it does not affect me whether I played or not.

People can really stop their addiction if they liked to but as you said once a certain person did stop and do see things that would start to spark it again on its addiction for sure he would end up on playing gambling again.This is why if we do really like to stop then we should avoid at all cost on the things that are related to gambling.

I think it depends on the US, most people become a addict because ever so curious for a repeat win and when losing to then be curious to return. If we have a serious intention to stop gambling then the easiest way is to forget about victory and lost, and think that gambling just for fun.

That is a very common pattern among people that are addicted to something, no one plans to become addicted, what it happens is they have curiosity about something and then they tried out, then they keep doing it thinking they can control it until the day they realize they are the ones being controlled.

I was very confused with what you just stated. Did you intentionally type "US" and not "us"? There is a difference by the way, especially that you are not typing in all caps. Did you mean the United States by US? :/

From what I understood from you is that people get addicted because they try to win some more and lose and another situation is they already lost a lot and try to chase their losses.

It's probably meant to emphasize us as in we and nothing about the united states. And its a good point because a lot of people are coming back again and again because they've already experienced winning and they want to experience it again.
