at that time I was invited by a friend to gamble the ball, because I like the ball, so I just went along to enliven the tournament event. then proceed to card games, to lottery numbers. my money runs out and even I have to be forced into debt. painful addiction. the only way that stopped me was the crypto market, when I started entering this industry I started leaving the gambling game.
That's the worst way someone could get addicted to something, by a friend who recommended him to go with him and gamble together. I personally gamble a lot, better said mostly I am betting but I would never recommend someone to do it because I know it could lead to drastic changes in that person's life

The cryptocurrency market is also a kind of gambling. Therefore, if you have a dependency, it is better not to engage in cryptocurrency, but to devote time to treatment.

thats true . here in on crypto everything was simmilar to gambling but the actual gambling is more enjoyable and more thrilling , that is the reason why crypto players still play gamble not just for the sake of enjoyment but also for the sake of earning a profit  .

all of us had a gambling story . mine was not really good but i can say that im not addicted to gambling  . i only play rarely but when i play i play big  . its either i win big or loose big  . i accept both  .

So as not to become addicted to gambling, it is better not to play them and not to go to the casino, and also not to place sports bets.
For me, cryptocurrency replaced gambling games, namely daily trading on stock exchanges. This is another excitement.

Surprised never shared my story here. I have had good and bad streaks here and there, but there was one when I gave up gambling. Basically it was in dice where I had a loss on a 50% bet 32 times in a row. I was making small bets and I had a bankroll of 6 btc back in 2014. Came down to 2, and didn't go any further. Had it automated through a bot.

2 btc was about the size of my last bet on martingale and I decided to go with sportsbetting instead. I put it all on Brazil to win because it was sort of a sure shot during worldcup versus Mexico. And the game had ended in a draw getting me down to 0. Luckily the sportsbet had a cash back kind of scheme and I got 0.05 btc back. I was so pissed at my luck that I ended up opening dice again and was about to make a few bets at 99% chance to win. Mistakenly I put my first bet on a 1% chance(i.e at 99x multiplier by mistake) and it showed I won.

I was just about to make more bets until I looked at my balance. It was close to 5 btc, and I froze. I couldn't believe what I saw. By making a wrong bet, I had gotten back almost all my btc. Amazed and surprised, I withdrew it all and sort of gave up gambling after that. But got back in last year and have likely lost more amount than back then. But thats another story to tell Wink

The addictive potential is the hope that makes us think that we can make big wins. Added on top are the tempting advertisements of jackpots and big wins. We all have an inner child who is devoid of logic and reasoning and it gets stimulated by these things making us play that game more. If anybody who is a gambler would have used their logic properly they would have stopped gambling. Smiley
I really like your logic when it comes to gambling. I like that inner child thing and the addictive potential hope that we have. Many gamblers will be affected in this statement if they read your post. Including me lol.

Just curious to read some addict or former addict stories and probably some of us like me will be glad to see how things actually did roll in for them during this period and I believe some other persons tending towards that path can also learn from it. Also, if you have a friend or relative you can speak for, it would be appreciated.

Personally, this is what I would like to know though.

1. How did you find yourself ending up to become an addict? What instigated it to the point that you just found yourself not being able to control the impulse any longer? What was the feeling like and during those period of being an addict, did you know and were you willing to pop out of it?

2. What were the steps you took or the steps you are taking to get out from it, and on the scale of 1 to 10, how can you rate how you are doing now?

3. For those who are out of it, do you still gamble or still wish you could? In the case where you are still gambling, how do you want to make sure what happened initially does not end up repeating itself.

4. Any other thing you feel you can add is welcome.
 I am not use addicted to gambling but when I am hearing this type of stories it will always been thinking of how gambling will affect everyone life but the addition is always came to every person but how much he will addicted to it is the matter of taking the serious action so if you are in the beginning stage you will easily get out from this and make your life easier but when you are confused addicted to gambling the solution is very tough.

Addiction in gambling happens when the user expects big earning in a short time period with small investment.

This happens with bitcoin, but the same won't be successful everytime. This way I too have spend expecting big return and the end result will be loss. With gambling loss can't be minimized as like we do with trading, with this it is always good to spend wisely.
Trading also has risks involved. Nothing that we see here is devoid of risk. What you need to do is associate yourself with those things that you are comfortable with. Try different types of trading but dont go for binary options because that is again nothing more than gambling.

Being an addict in gambling is really hard because you cannot control yourself and you are end up bankrupt. Good thing i have managed to stop gambling in a month.
It's true being an addict in gambling is really hard because all you ever think is greed in money. How do you able to stop it in a month?
A lot of people had been easily get addicted in gambling by just a few games, it can be the cause of winning streak that you have start to become greedy and also having a losing streak that makes you want to recover all of your losses. I became an addict in gambling because every time i got home from work i always go at the casino just to play poker and baccarat, so i ended up losing all of my funds that my wife got so mad at me. I managed to stop my gambling addiction is by the help of my wife that she made me realized that i could waste all of life when i play gambling too much. I also started to working out at the gym and bond with my family, so i could forgot about gambling. Everyone can really play gambling just to have limitations and a self-control, so you don't ended up addicted and bankrupt.

From starting we just play for earning or hobby. But slowly it's become a kind of addiction. Once a player won few bettings then usually he will encourage to play more. Then if he losed in few game then he will try to recover his fund. So he will play continue due to intention of recover fund. By this way it will become a addiction. After that situation it's very difficult to leave from gamble. Our greedy nature is responsible for this addiction. It's not only on gamble. Same is on trading also. But gamble is more dangerous addiction from trading. Gambler could not easily leave play. But I don't think it's impossible. Those are in too much loss in gamble they should leave it and find another way to earn. It will make you happy in my opinion.

I was betting a lot in football games. I remember myself waking up early and sleeping late at night because I was looking for matches that fit my preferences and make my bet. Apart from losing my sleep, I was nervous all day and I hadn't the mood to do anything else but looking at bet365 and bet. I managed to make a profit from my initial investment but once I all-in I lost everything. I felt really sad but now I see it as a good sign because I removed this way of living immediately.

Gambling addiction stories when I am kid I like playing cards and dice I don't know why but I really want gambling but she I was 15 like that I don't wanna play gambling anymore because of gambling you can have a problems .

If you simply gambling means you will not be in problem,only if you are out of control about how much money and time spending on it.If you are like to do some particular games from childhood then there maybe a reason even like you can play that game on winning streak for many times but don't try when you are out of money.

Every gambler has their first time gambling in their life, but the difference is one gambler can control themselves while the other gambler cannot do that. But every gambler will have the same experience in gambling which is they will get lose their money soon or later, and it's only a matter of time before they realize. And the lucky gambler is a person who can limit his money, having self-control, know when the time to stop gamble.


Yes gambling addiction we don't do anything against that once you are addicted to gambling then you will not able to get out of from there it is common but gambling gives a lot of people to lots of profits in short period of time that's why gambling will run like bro still now

I used to gamble everyday ,morning until dawn with my friends or neighbors, at first all I want was to enjoy myself but later on even how many times I loss still I keep on coming back hoping that I can win. I've been a iresponsible mother with my son and depend my responsibilities to my parents. I onced pawned my jewelries or valuable things just because of gambling that's how addicted I am in gambling now I am thankful that I can control my addiction. Yes, I still play but it is not like before I know my priorities and I do not want to risk my family just because of gambling.
Thats one of the greatest thing that might happen to every gambling addict,to have a chance of getting out from this vulnerability and find way of making life more valuable than being a gambling addict

Though i dont consider my self a gambling addict wayback,but i use to spend even my school allowance just to bet in our local bettings

This is also a good thing that you are out as well because it seems you also had started early in gambling as during school times itself. Younger you start gambling more chances of addiction but you are not an addict which means you had a great control on yourself.

This is the best story of every gambler, to be able to control their self and to be able to limit that addiction and eventually, that will fade a way slowly. Luckily, I don't have any addiction story because I know how to control myself, though of course I gamble but my purpose is not to make money but to have fun, mostly I go to carnivals and play some games their until I satisfied myself. This is just my life during holidays which mostly the carnivals are out in the street.

thats impossible if you dont have you own gambling addcition story  . even if we were kids we tend to hook on playing gambling because it is fun and trilling . the joy that we get cant is also unexplainable after we have  won even if it is only a small amounts of cash  .  

my own story is when im still young . i love to roam around on our place and i see alot of gambling games scaterring around the corner and of course i tried it because that is the latest trend back then on our place and gadgets arent really availble that time because they are expensive .  i got eventually hooked and addicted . it come to the point that i steal money from my parents  wallet  .  i also collect some plastic and iron so that i can sell it on junk shops just to get my hands on gambling again  .    the addiction only subsided after i went to grade school were i now value the cash  .
