It depends on them how they want to cure their gambling addiction. If they are willing to try to cure their gambling addiction, there is a way to do it. The most important thing is that they realize that they are addicted to gambling and want to cure it so they can ask other people to help them. Yes, our fear prevents us from doing something else because we are afraid that we will not be able to do it. That's not a problem. If we try to overcome that fear by continuing to take steps to do something, we will see that we can and must keep doing it to cure the gambling addiction. By knowing the problem, we will try to reduce our gambling time and organize ourselves to be responsible gamblers.

When you're tired and you don't have enough rest and sleep, that's affecting our brains and we can't think better when we're on that state.
It's true that taking enough rest is helping a lot, we're not machines, we're human beings that needs to get some rest. Well, even machines do need to even if they're designed to keep going.
That amount of rest you're taking during the day seems to be good enough and that's aside from the sleep that you get daily, right?

Yes because mental wellness will give birth to every other productive part of the human being and if anything affect the mental state,  it will result into so many negative experience for the gambler and this will not be a good outcome.

Some times,  taking a enough rest also helps a lot in repairing the mental states,  I have a ruin that I have maintained over the years and that is taking 2-3 hours daily to take rest during the day,  this has helped me to charge up keeping me on a balanced mental state.

You are right, @wiwo. For a human to perform efficiently and diligently, they must be mentally and emotionally stable; otherwise, it can result in making different kinds of mistakes. There is some kind of mental state that someone can be in, and the person can be faced with sudden amnesia, forgetting themselves about what they are doing and doing things in the wrong way even before realizing themselves. Definitely, if it's a gambler, he or she can gamble wrongly and make some mistakes that land them in possible losses that they have not planned for, plus the fact that gambling is also a game of luck. Normally, unless one is mentally good, they can't perform well, so if a gambler knows that they are not in the right frame of mind, it is better to also stay away from gambling at that moment.

To be honest, its shocking how much money and time can be lost to gambling, particularly when its done online. Online platforms can be convenient, but there are drawbacks as well. Its very easy to become engrossed in them. The statement that fear is the primary barrier that you brought up really strikes home. The purpose of online gambling sites is to keep players interested; frequently, they do this by providing bonuses or incentives.

A simple first step for anyone feeling caught in this pattern could be to take a break. A brief respite might provide clarity. Look for other things to do with your time during this break: watch a movie, go for a stroll, or read a book. And never forget that asking for assistance when you need it is acceptable.

Very funny analogy but very true, the long and short of the whole thing is that, majority of gambler do not see or take gambling for what it is, and that is "having fun".

Majority of gamblers are just chasing after money, nothing else, and because of this, they never consider that fun part of gambling, they never find any gain in their losses, rather, they see it as loss, and nothing else but losses .

Someone who goes into a movie theater to watch a movie, paid for it and came out disappointed because the movie was a bad one, can not go asking for his money back because he or she already got served what he or she paid for, it's just that he or she doesn't like it for personal reasons.

If like you said, gamblers can apply this same mentality to their gambling activities, all will be well, that is' for example, when a gambler plays and lost, he or she can look and consider the fun he or she had playing as the profit, rather than just all the time, focusing on the money that was lost .

Everyone can eliminate gambling from their lives, including people who are addicted to gambling. It is indeed difficult to completely get rid of the gambling activities that we do in our lives, but we need to remember that it is fear that makes us difficult, not difficulties that make us afraid. Sometimes there is someone who has managed to get out of the gambling he did and it doesn't take long for him to return to gambling again because he can't find any other pleasure besides gambling. Don't gamble too much to the point where it takes up your time and money. The world is too small if you only fill your life activities with gambling, there are still many places you haven't visited that can provide beauty and happiness. And your time is too short if you only spend that time just gambling, there are still many things you haven't tried that can give you challenges and excitement.

Whether to recover the lost money or not, shouldn't be even a question. You don't think "How I will recover the money spent on the tickets?" after watching a film in a movie theater, right? Even if the film was bad, which would be the equivalent of losing some money to gambling, you don't start thinking how to recover the money. You just move on. Same approach to gambling will save you from troubles.

You can get rid of gambling, especially if you are already addicted to gambling. Still, it is not easy to do because it involves many things that have to be done, such as throwing away thoughts about gambling and trying to build a new activity that is not related to gambling. Usually, failure causes failure because someone doesn't want to take the first step in building a new activity and feels it is difficult. For this reason, serious enthusiasm and effort are needed to cure gambling addiction. Without it, they will not be able to recover from gambling addiction truly and may even return to gambling and end up experiencing a more severe gambling addiction. And it is true that it depends on the individual's mindset to gamble responsibly so as not to experience gambling addiction.

The level of excitement and the appetite for aiming for more that how addiction will push you to keep playing, it's true that being addicted is far easier than moving away or quitting away from it, there are many obstacle and many factor that keeps affecting you during your gambling sessions, things that will engage you and will keep you to ask for more.

You need to have that strong will not to chase for your losses and make sure to limit your time and finances to make sure that you are still in control and you are doing it with care for your mental financial capabilities.

There are only two ways to stop an addiction, one way is to do it gradually as you are suggesting, this means that the person will slowly diminish the amount of time and money they spend on gambling over a period of time until they stop completely, however the issue with this is that this requires an enormous amount of self-control, which is precisely what those which are addicted do not have.

The other way to do this is to stop abruptly and never engage on the activity again, and while this strategy also requires self-control, it seems like the best out of the two and it is often the one used by professionals to get people to get their addictions behind.

people can get rid of gambling, they just need help from other people close to them, in many cases the person is not yet at a very advanced stage of the addiction and with this they can stop gambling on their own, without help from anyone, although not It will be an easy task because the problem is always the belief that where you lost money but tomorrow you will be able to win, the thought that today was an unlucky day but tomorrow will be a lucky day and that for that reason you cannot give up playing drives people to not stop playing on their own and only stop when a misfortune happens at home with their family, at that moment when the person who is playing realizes that he needs to immediately stop playing because he is bringing misfortune to his family

now when misfortune happens in his family and yet this person who plays doesn't stop, then it means that this person has already reached a very serious stage and that he will not stop playing on his own, which is why the family will need to make the hard decision to force him into the hospital dedicated to the treatment of addiction, in other countries it is necessary for the family to first take the case to court and the judge decides to give the family the power to force the addicted family member into the hospital for treatment, In these cases, the judge prohibits the addict from touching his own assets, whether money or property, until he undergoes treatment and the doctor proves that he is cured.

By that I mean that addiction cures, I mean that people also stop gambling whether on their own or forced to and when they talk about being responsible, they are talking about only playing with money that you can afford to lose and gamble. with moderation. It is not because a person has a lot of money that they can afford to lose that they should spend every day playing at a casino, it is necessary for the person to be responsible and play in moderation, define days and times to play and dedicate time to other things of life too

Getting rid of gambling is not possible especially when you are addicted to it whereas no matter how many times you losses the Yorning of playing more will still come but in times of the question if gambling is responsible, to me I will answer it two perspective first it said to be irresponsible when an individual became an addict as such losse properties because of the gambling while many people depends on gamble to survive were as they have made alot of wins so to them gambling is there way out. In summary it all depends on individual mindset if gambling is responsible to them or not.

It would really be giving out that kind of boost up on which it is really that something that would really be that mainly be felt out by most gamblers and this what makes you push to play even more.
This is why it would really be just that easy to say when you arent on the feet of those gamblers or you arent on gambling session but on the time that you do make yourself that real involvement then
things turns out to be that different and this is something that very common or likely to happen when it comes to talks on disasters because gamblers do definitely be experiencing more losses
than winnings and this is in fact the reality of gambling.

Gambling is for leisure and not making money on where most people do really have that kind of impression and when the time comes that they had been devastated with gambling then
this is where they do make out these self realizations and would really be having that regret on what they have done. Dont come into a point on which you are already that
being devastated with gambling via finances because this is the primary thing that would be affected if you arent that responsible in towards your spending limit.

I agree with that,  especially when an addicted gambler get involved in such winning strings this will increase his quest to become more addicted at the end it will have an over all negative impact on the gamblers.

Best practice to avoid gambling addictions is stay off and never have a taste of it in the first place,  just as stated severally,  it is easier to become an addicts than to get out of addictions.

Actually we can never get rid of gambling easily especially when our winning moment comes in gambling/casino, a kind of excitement works in our mind and hence we start focusing more on gambling.
Again, when the losing moment comes in gambling, even though there is a temporary negative effect in our mind, later we become addicted to gambling more and more to make up for the loss.
So it is easy to get involved in gambling but once you concentrate it becomes a much tougher challenge to keep yourself away. But it should be remembered that no work is impossible....

You are right, personally, whenever it comes to playing in a casino, since here we already have some experience in games of chance, it is very necessary to have good control in terms of what we are going to spend, or the money we are going to put into it. be willing to lose, the other thing we know is that we should not think about what we are going to win, we must have a mentality that first the casino has an advantage, we are never going to overcome the advantage, if we play laro lpazo the tendency will always be to lose a little, because winning is not something that is done all the time, there are periods of time where the player has a great tendency to win, which we call streak and this is very nice because when the player is on a streak, it is usually a very short time but we must take advantage of it and that is when the greatest emotions occur and that is when we must control ourselves more because this is when we need to be very clear about what we should do, there is someone who They lose control when making bets, because they believe that since they are winning, they deserve to win more and it is a very big trap, because the player thinks that he should continue winning and winning, when he starts to lose it is the ugly thing, because the player starts to bet and bet a lot and that is when you can lose what you have won, what you were willing to lose and possibly if you continue making deposits you will continue to lose them, this is the only bad thing about not knowing how to control yourself.

In this order of ideas we could think that things in a casino can sometimes get out of control, and yes, but that is where our responsibility comes in, in order to have a good performance in casinos it is essential to have good self-control available. and of course it is easy to say but very difficult to do, personally I have had cases like this, and I know that I should not do certain things that suck, the bad thing that happens here is the impulses, the impulses are what sometimes make us lose more money, because we believe that with a special play we will Recover and we will be in profit.

Yes, there is self control but also that's one thing that we're forgetting when we're too focus in our bets. We want to control it but we're being controlled by our own emotions.

That is it, we need to force ourselves for us to make that actuality of self control. Because you'll have to break it down until you are able to control yourself. Yes, those who knows how to control themselves have their own limits and they can do that on their own.

Quite agree with you, but then, there is what is called self control, winning will make any gambler happy and would want to play more since he or she believes that every win gives him or her an easy money - quite understandable.

While losing on the other hand will also make the gambler want to keep playing as well, in a bid to atleast, see if he or she can recover some of the funds he or she has lost - very much understandable as well .

But you and I know that this feelings are normal, there is nothing extraordinary with it, all we need; to do away with such feeling is self control, a food that is so tasty makes you wanna eat more and more, but with self control, we force ourselves up when we know we are full, even while there is still a lot available to eat.

It is same also with gambling , those who have self control will not gambling above their limits, regardless of winning or losses .

That is if he is willing to learn to moderate his gambling activities because many temptations can make him lose self-control and cause him to become addicted to gambling. This has happened a lot where they can still control themselves in gambling, but gradually, when the temptation gets bigger and gives them several wins, it makes them want to win even more. And that will probably be the beginning for them to become addicted to gambling, and they won't even realize it. And only by telling other people what we can do so that they can immediately help us solve this gambling addiction problem so that it doesn't cause us to become serious gambling addicts.

Perhaps building new activities could be one solution to reduce gambling addiction so that the mental pressure to continue gambling can be reduced too. But they indeed need a strong determination to reduce their gambling activities so that they can control themselves to stay away from gambling. It would be more helpful if they could do other activities to reduce their gambling activities.

In gambling, we must have limits to control everything and reduce the losses we might receive. With these limits, we can suppress the desire to gamble to reduce our gambling activities and avoid gambling addiction, which is a problem for many gamblers. If you can't stop gambling, you can just reduce your gambling activities so that you don't lose a lot of money gambling. You should use the money for other things.
