that's true, because we as a family really have to direct our family members to good things, because it's impossible for the family to let us go if we take risky actions, but I think when the family has directed it or advised it often but the person doesn't change then the family will also give up and let him feel the impact himself, and maybe that is the only way for them to come to their senses on their own. It's true what you said, we have to invite him to do other things that are more useful, because getting used to something is not easy, so we can invite him occasionally.

even so, I don't think it will be easy, because people who are addicted to gambling will of course continue to gamble as they please and most likely won't care about anything else, therefore I think if it is difficult then there is nothing wrong with a little force because that is also for their own good. I hope that for those who are addicted to gambling, the family can do their best to cure them. because I don't think the family will just leave one of their family members alone, because of course they don't want anything bad to happen to their family members.
At least we are responsible with our family members by always teaching them good things so they don't go down the wrong path and can live well. By getting closer to our relationship with other family members, we can provide a good emotional bond so that if they accidentally do something that is not good, we can feel it and ask them about it. There must be someone who can be a bridge for family members so that if something happens, they can immediately lend a hand to help and perhaps find a solution.

Yes, it's not easy because when a family member often gambles, he will hide his gambling activities so that other family members don't know so he can gamble freely. But because of our emotional closeness to those family members, we can feel changes in them, so we can ask about them and find out what's wrong with them. At least if they want to talk about it, they will come to us and tell us about their problems so that we can immediately provide help and find a solution. Finding a solution in the form of inviting them to do other things that have nothing to do with gambling will make them trust us and try to follow what we say. This will help them to reduce their gambling activities because they see that there are family members who are serious about helping them try to reduce their gambling activities.

In my opinion, it is the hope of all families to want all their family members to live successfully and well, therefore I think families will do their best and support each other. I agree with your preference, because family is the most comfortable home and it is a comfort that is incomparable, also with family it is the most valuable asset so as much as possible we must be able to interpret gambling which is actually not a place to make money so that it doesn't harm us also our family.

That's for sure, because I don't think most families will be able to accept that one of their family members is addicted to gambling, it's possible that if they find out they might cry, be disappointed or maybe even angry. that's true but as you said if they want to say it, because in my opinion those who are addicted to gambling certainly won't easily talk about their gambling habits, because they know this is a bad thing so it's impossible to just talk about it, but even so, sooner or later of course the family they will find out about their gambling habits because of changes in attitude or other aspects.

I guess I can't understand why someone would do something that continues to be a bad time for them.  If you're at the point where you're considering suicide over the vehicle of entertainment you've chosen then do yourself a favor and find some other form of entertainment.  Gaming using a game console isn't all that much different from gambling and you can't lose money (other than wasting it on in game items maybe).  I think finding a form of entertainment you can enjoy and a separate form of employment will work wonders for you.  Gambling isn't a job and I think that's where you're making your mistake.

Gambling need to have the survival to the next game,because the players may lose the capital at the initial stage.The gamblers who survive for the longer period able to get huge win in the gambling site.The gamblers should accept the minimum profit from their initial,based on their rank in the gambling site.The gambling site help the gamblers to win based on their knowledge and experience with the particular game.The gamblers who can make good profit from their game should withdraw the funds at the right time.If the gamblers fail to withdraw their funds,the negative impact will get all your capital at the end.

A lot of replies already, but I felt it important to chime in.  First off take a deep breath and understand that there is absolutely a light at the end of the tunnel.  Typically people have to hit rock bottom before they can "clean" themselves up.  If you're truly ready for change, then it's time to seek professional help.  There are a lot of free gambling addiction websites, as well as going to see a counselor could be a great way to get back on the right path.

I truly wish you the best of luck!

How can one control the uncontrollable urge to keep gambling despite the toll it takes on once life.

It's getting worse every day. I'm extremely depressed I have thoughts of unaliving myself more often, some times I feel the betting companies manipulate people spiritually to get them addicted where be playing without plans and strategy. Once a bet place get cut, there is this uncomfortable urge to quickly book another one with the plans of recovering the first money lost but it will end up cutting again.
the question you should ask yourself is if their is another thing that gives you joy outside of gambling. The only reason why you could be facing this situation is possibly because you don't have a serious job you're doing they is taking a good amount of your time if not you wouldn't even have that time to think on making it a must that you have to recover a money that is lost in the process of gambling.

It's a bad habit and you have to discipline yourself to know that gambling isn't a job and you shouldn't expect that you are always going to double your money after you've placed any bet. as a matter of fact, the best way to gamble is to do it at your own pace, financial strength and convenience. once you are going about gambling as though your financial success depends on it, you've successfully endangered yourself to becoming a serious addict.

Gambling is not a job, if Op is taking it as one, he's making a huge mistake, but if he got to this stage of gambling out of ignorance, I think moving away from his current location would do. Hardly will he change in that same place, as his body and brain have adapted to playing gambling in that region. People dealing with any sort of gambling disorder can easily travel to visit friends who engage in other activities. Which can distract his interest in gambling for a reasonable period. When he gets back to his home, they'll be a difference. Gambling activities can be continued, but it will never be like before. Because he has somehow gained control over himself, during the days he was not participating in the game. Hence, as gamblers being conscious of oneself is required. The ability to determine what works with you and how beneficial it is in making life changes.

Because whatever therapy that is given to people it works differently for everyone. There are people even when they travel would look for a place to wager bet. Since the online platform allows for a personal gambling experience. It should be used to an advantage of doing what we know how to deal with its addiction. The whole control is on the human brain. People who struggle to change actually, needs to be talked out of it. As the thought of gambling has scavenged a reasonable amount of their thinking. So, Op needs help not an instruction or advice alone. He needs to tell close friends about his trouble. Their actions towards it could save the Op from undergoing such problem gambling.

sometimes people with this gambling disorder have to find themselves rock bottom before they can realize though. since he posted the thread i think he already had realized. maybe all he needs is another habit to replace gambling. 

if he is doing it at crypto casino, the temptation is going to be a lot harder to fight it if he sees the casinos all the time. he needs someone in the house with him to keep him company to remind him every time.

No, they need professional help, if they depend on an external source to control their gambling, whether that help comes in the form of a family member, friend or a self-exclusion system implemented by a casino, sooner or later those systems will fail and then they will gamble once again, what they need to do is to find the inner strength to stop gambling, and most often this means receiving therapy and even medication to control their urges to gamble.

One of the reasons I think is because of the inability to accept the fact that they lost, usually this is the starting point for a gambler to act out of control and out of his ability and this happens as a result of the urge for recovery, this is why we must have a correct understanding of gambling along with agreeing with ourselves consciously about the basic concept of gambling which is that gambling is a for-profit activity, meaning that anything can happen, you can get the victory you want but on the other hand you are also very likely to lose.

But it is a fact that most gamblers cannot apply the right understanding of gambling to themselves, usually this happens to those who are too focused on the chances of winning so as to ignore the possible risks that are clearly inseparable in gambling. On the other hand it is ridiculous for someone to lose the will to live, I understand it is a situation that makes you feel significant pressure, but however your life is far more important than anything, I think there are still many other options they can do to overcome the problem by seeking some help from psychological experts to correct and straighten out the mindset, after that as you suggested by diverting the mind to other things such as playing games or adding part-time job activities, the point is to divert to something that is quite fun but does not involve risk.

There is no way out if you have a symptomatic problem, therefore knowing what the diagnosis is allows for recovery.

Any gambler regardless of his condition of success or failure can fall from grace, but only the mentally healthy recovers, these stages happen, and are intrinsic to the gambling.

Therapy, depending on that your solution will be a complete recovery, but surely getting away from the game will be your happiness.
Oh, sometimes even a mentally healthy person has difficulty coping with such a problem. Not everything is so simple and unambiguous. What can I advise those people who are subject to such changes? There is no need to solve the problem yourself if it is at an advanced stage. Spare no expense and contact a specialist so that he can begin to deal with this whole matter in the right way. This requires the right approach to business, and not withdrawal into oneself. This is all quite serious.
Being addicted to gambling is one thing another is agreeing that you are an addict because I have seen lots of deranged gamblers battle their addiction problem by themselves thinking that they can actually find a way to stop it and I don't know why these person always keeping such things to their self, if you are an addicted gambler and find it difficult to convey your problems to person then finding a way to solve it would be a problem because an addict dies faster when he keep his issues to himself.
This must be our mindset cause everything in this world is temporary so meaning once we are involve in gambling and become an addict then it's better to get out or find a way how to get out on gambling. We need to enjoy our life  don't need to focus on gambling there are many good things around us . But as we all know that once a gambling getting addict it's hard to say that he can overcome or get out to addiction very easy cause it's very hard to leave gambling once you are an addict.

Sometimes some things appear to be abnormal in the eyes of many, but when you look deep down, you will notice that they are just normal actions that could be controlled and prevented if one focuses and channels their energy somewhere else.
 
In your case, I will tell you for free that there is no form of spirituality attached to casinos, but the only form of manipulation that is happening here is between you and your mindset, on which you need to focus and work upon yourself in order to get yourself out of it.

The best thing I will advise you to do is to limit the kind of gambling or game conversation you engage in and try as much as you can to have more social interaction with people in order to get your mind distracted.


While reading through your comments I was like wow. There are a lot of true talks in this comment, I haven't come across your comments or threads before but today I did and I think I would be trying hard to read them through when ever I come across one.

Gambling is not a thing one would take serious because of one do so, the gambler will end up losing everything he or she have and also become addicted to it.
Truly there is no spirituality in gambling, a story I heard from people about a gambler who went and fortified him self and gamble then he still end up losing everything he has and go back home empty handed. However some people who beliefs in spiritual things will want to think that one can succeed in gamble when he spiritually.

That's true, but in my opinion, if they have become addicted to gambling, it seems difficult to see this side, it will be difficult for them to realize that what they are doing is a way to destroy their life, and I think they will realize that after losing everything, it's not just money. If they are able to realize it, then they will think about how to stop their addiction, and of course they can't do it all at once because that's impossible, but as you said, they can start from small things first, such as reducing their gambling activities by also time and budget constraints. the essence of which is self-control.

and they also have to have a strong desire of their own first to be able to leave their addiction, because if they are still half-hearted then in my opinion they are still easily tempted by gambling which can make them come back or even get worse. and as far as I know, not many people who are addicted can recover from their addiction, but even so, I'm sure they can leave their addiction if they clearly want to stop their addiction.
It may be difficult to heal them or make them realize their mistakes, but in any case, as family members, we must continue to try to make them aware of what they have done. With all the help from family members, we can make him realize what he did until he became a gambling addict. After his confession and the desire to heal him arise, we can then try to find the right way to cure him, and maybe we can visit a rehabilitation clinic together to get help to cure his gambling addiction. Yes, we can start with small and light activities to help them reduce their gambling activities until they can really get used to doing activities other than gambling.

It was his increasingly strong desire to cure his gambling addiction that was able to make him survive a situation that made him uncomfortable because he was still thinking about gambling. This must be prevented immediately by continuing to invite him to do other activities so that he can slowly think about other activities and not think about his gambling activities, which he has started to abandon. The gambling addict will feel progress if his family members try to help him get rid of his gambling problem. He will see that the healing process is going well, and he has succeeded in reducing his dependence on gambling until he is completely cured of his gambling addiction.
that's true, because we as a family really have to direct our family members to good things, because it's impossible for the family to let us go if we take risky actions, but I think when the family has directed it or advised it often but the person doesn't change then the family will also give up and let him feel the impact himself, and maybe that is the only way for them to come to their senses on their own.

[/quote
The betting companies are  not manipulating anyone , they Dont even know you instead they only recognized your slip And process out your copy But the truth here is that men naturally are greedy And Ever anticiapating for free things all the time .

For instance I have seen someone who placed a bet of 100naira To win 5million , And Was very positive that he will win the money , in this case If he losses the bet he will Quickly go for rebate with the mindset that the beting company are manipulating him .

Most times as a gambler we Dont consider  the risk rather we only focused on what To gain in return which is very bad.

You are not manipulated neither is any one manipulated to over stake or consistently gamble. You are not the only one in this and it is greed that cause that uncontrollable pulse to always gamble even with losses.

Yes to rebet when the current game didn't win is the negative effect of gambling online because if you have your gambling staked online and you didn't win the betting ticket, there and then you can rebook the remaining games. If you are betting online then you need a great level of financial discipline otherwise you will see yourself rebooking games because you want to try and get something out of what you have lost, it creates an addition rapidly that you always see yourself login in to your app every time to check if you have won or lost.

What he says is the ideal that can happen, in Personal terms Every person who has the addiction to the game should be treated as Quickly as Possible , because it is very easy to assign any type of event to an Addicted person , for example going to a Psychologist , go to clinics Where they do whatever they do to relieve anxiety, if the person has a very Advanced addiction they need medication, how to give them the medication, all of this must be evaluated, I believe that before becoming a psychologist, the best is to take him to a Psychiatrist, because the psychiatrist is a doctor, and that is Often what a person in addiction really needs ,  because what the person in addiction does is basically look for the safest way to play, sometimes he doesn't even give importance to the value money, but because he throws himself directly into the things he wants to play and win, he doesn't care if he makes or creates many problems, he is only interested in getting ahead With his game , and that is Something that must be Avoided at all costs.

The person who suffers from the addiction and has the full knowledge and help that can be cured is much easier than the one who is with the addiction and does not accept, the one who accepts that he has a problem, the Problem is attacked and the time of The Healing is very fast and with that it makes the person much more adaptable to changes, go back to work, see life in a different way, that is just like those who come off drugs, the process is hard, detoxification It is very strong and that causes people to be really very hard when it comes to doing or deciding to do something so that they can get out of it, so the people who are like that, who have Overcome this type of Obstacles , should be role models, tell them to The others say that if they Could,  anyone can too , so this type of thing is what we should always do, not give up, and even more so if someone suffers from addiction.
I've seen this happen to teenagers who often play online games. Their condition is very serious because they never stop playing online games unless their internet connection is interrupted, and then they stop. This condition will probably be the same as that experienced by gamblers, so if it is not cured as soon as possible, they will get deeper into gambling, and it will be difficult to cure. Besides that, his mentality must have been affected by gambling, so all he could think about was gambling and gambling. We cannot imagine if this happens to teenagers or our children because it will cause serious problems for all family members. Yes, we have to help him cure his gambling addiction. However, we have to take him to a rehabilitation clinic so he can get treatment from experts so that experts can start curing his gambling addiction.

People who are addicted to gambling must be treated immediately by experts before their lives become even more messy and create more serious difficulties or problems because this could impact other family members. Yes, detoxification is needed to eliminate the influence or desire to gamble so that they can return to their normal condition. This will be a kind of reset for their mind so that they will not think about gambling again after completing treatment. We will never know what the treatment process is like because that is the business of experts who try to cure people who are addicted to gambling. But we as family members must be able to always provide support to him so that he is also able to survive and be able to undergo the process of healing his gambling addiction. If there is more support for people who are addicted to gambling to continue to cure their gambling addiction, maybe the time needed will not be so long because the addict will see the amount of support, so it will make them even more enthusiastic about going through the process.

~snip~
That's true, but in my opinion, if they have become addicted to gambling, it seems difficult to see this side, it will be difficult for them to realize that what they are doing is a way to destroy their life, and I think they will realize that after losing everything, it's not just money. If they are able to realize it, then they will think about how to stop their addiction, and of course they can't do it all at once because that's impossible, but as you said, they can start from small things first, such as reducing their gambling activities by also time and budget constraints. the essence of which is self-control.

and they also have to have a strong desire of their own first to be able to leave their addiction, because if they are still half-hearted then in my opinion they are still easily tempted by gambling which can make them come back or even get worse. and as far as I know, not many people who are addicted can recover from their addiction, but even so, I'm sure they can leave their addiction if they clearly want to stop their addiction.
It may be difficult to heal them or make them realize their mistakes, but in any case, as family members, we must continue to try to make them aware of what they have done. With all the help from family members, we can make him realize what he did until he became a gambling addict. After his confession and the desire to heal him arise, we can then try to find the right way to cure him, and maybe we can visit a rehabilitation clinic together to get help to cure his gambling addiction. Yes, we can start with small and light activities to help them reduce their gambling activities until they can really get used to doing activities other than gambling.

It was his increasingly strong desire to cure his gambling addiction that was able to make him survive a situation that made him uncomfortable because he was still thinking about gambling. This must be prevented immediately by continuing to invite him to do other activities so that he can slowly think about other activities and not think about his gambling activities, which he has started to abandon. The gambling addict will feel progress if his family members try to help him get rid of his gambling problem. He will see that the healing process is going well, and he has succeeded in reducing his dependence on gambling until he is completely cured of his gambling addiction.

How can one control the uncontrollable urge to keep gambling despite the toll it takes on once life.

It's getting worse every day. I'm extremely depressed I have thoughts of unaliving myself more often, some times I feel the betting companies manipulate people spiritually to get them addicted where be playing without plans and strategy. Once a bet place get cut, there is this uncomfortable urge to quickly book another one with the plans of recovering the first money lost but it will end up cutting again.
Sometimes some things appear to be abnormal in the eyes of many, but when you look deep down, you will notice that they are just normal actions that could be controlled and prevented if one focuses and channels their energy somewhere else.
 
In your case, I will tell you for free that there is no form of spirituality attached to casinos, but the only form of manipulation that is happening here is between you and your mindset, on which you need to focus and work upon yourself in order to get yourself out of it.

The best thing I will advise you to do is to limit the kind of gambling or game conversation you engage in and try as much as you can to have more social interaction with people in order to get your mind distracted.
People with gambling activity should realize the importance of self-awareness and redirecting energy towards more positive activities. In the case of casino involvement, there is indeed no inherent spirituality but rather a manipulation happening within people's mindset. Socializing with others and finding alternative outlets for energy can indeed contribute to a healthier mindset. It's crucial to recognize and address the underlying factors contributing to certain behaviors.

If someone is facing challenges related to gambling or other activities, seeking support from friends, family, or professional help can be beneficial in the journey towards positive change. Recognizing and addressing the underlying factors that contribute to certain behaviors is key to sustainable change. Building a support network can provide both emotional and practical assistance, making the journey towards positive change more manageable.

Everyone should be aware of gambling, so that all his money goes to gambling. An amount of money should be budgeted for gambling, so that the joy of gambling is not lost even if you lose. Gambling is definitely a matter of fun and enjoyment, I think gambling companies never influence a person to gamble. Everything depends on yourself in gambling. Gambling companies can never be held responsible for an individual's uncontrolled gambling play. If you feel that you are addicted to gambling then you must gradually come out of gambling. However, it is not possible for gambling addicts to completely stop gambling. Gambling addicts should gamble once in 15 days to break the addiction

In fact, not everyone is aware of the gambling they do. I mean, like you said in this post. in essence, awareness has a broad meaning and meaning depending on how a person responds and interprets it. of course, every person who gambles can be said to be aware that he is gambling. however, it is not certain that someone is conscious in the true sense. more precisely, the outer and inner base, understanding, knowing, and being aware of its limitations. for me, this is a form of awareness. especially, if it is related to gambling. however, I really understand what you are saying. that's why, if we are fully aware, of course we know the limits of what we can afford and play without having to force it, let alone having problems with gambling disorders.

It's just that, the problem is that everyone has different thoughts and levels of awareness. the point is, we cannot generalize this awareness. however, we agree that casino platforms or gambling companies never specifically force anyone to gamble. Casinos only provide services and services as entertainment with prizes that have been provided and adapted to the features of each game. Likewise with the other points you said, yeah, gambling companies are not directly responsible for players who become addicted. that's why, every licensed casino always provides self-exclusion. so, the point of what you are saying is to the gambler.  and yeah, that's right. so that we don't become addicts, of course we must have awareness, understanding, knowledge and limits according to our abilities. in this way, at least someone can avoid gambling disorders.

Get yourself busy doing other things than gambling, avoid having anything that will enable you gamble around you, try to distance yourself from any form of addiction and get your hands on something to get busy.

some times I feel the betting companies manipulate people spiritually to get them addicted where be playing without plans and strategy.

There's nothing like that, if they do so, it would have been everyone that will be involved in this kind of behavior, so this is more about being personally enticed and having the inability to control self while gambling.

Once a bet place get cut, there is this uncomfortable urge to quickly book another one with the plans of recovering the first money lost but it will end up cutting again.

This is nothing than addiction, if you care about yourself and bring responsible, then try as much as possible to deal with that addiction before it brings the worst in you to manifestation.
