Do sports and explore new places. At the end of the day virtual gambling is not that rewarding compared to outside world experiences shared with the people you love and cherish. Just like you said, it creates a thirst that is never quenched. It creates an illusion that you want a little bit more of what you already have and then it's gone in an instant.

I have a friend of mine and I known him as an addicted gambler. And at first he talks about on his struggle about quitting what he did is just the same with you suggested. He get attached with basketball and sometimes he wants to go out with his other friends to go for a mountain gambling. Suddenly his addiction was changed to hobby on those sports.

i am happy for your friend as we can see that your friend is a proof that addicted gambler finally can live like ordinary people and he can change his addicted gambling into hobby. i think this will be a good example for us and it shows to us if we really want to quit from gambling, we need to struggle and create new habit for our life so our mind is not thinking about gambling games.
It's going to be a big sacrifice quitting in gambling but we need to do it in order to quit, it is never impossible to quit although it is hard but as long as we convince ourselves to live a better life we can do it anytime we want to. Actually that was the decision after the damage has been done, therefore it is still better to learn how to be discipline so we can prevent addiction.

Very precisely. that all of the profits or a change we can get only from ourselves and not of others, indeed anyone else could do it but it is just a thing to give encouragement and not change. So, you need to know that gambling is a very adverse impact on giving when we did it the wrong way and vice versa. So if we don't want to get the loss, one of the things that must be done is to control yourself and make an analysis of the strategies that are owned

I tried to give up gambling many times in the past but was never successful and I was able to stay away from it for some time but at the end it again attracts me to get on the gambling sites and try my luck on it and now I think I won't be able to give up gambling any time as I am addicted to it now.

If based on what you've done to surrender as gambling, I guess this time all you need is time. Keep doing what you've tried to do to stop gambling, you'll slowly stop gambling. Because to stop gambling we can not rush.
True , It is reverse in entering gambling it is so easy to play and bet but to give up is not as easy as entering ,it will really need a time with no past forward ,no shortcuts, just like life there is no easy .

One of the most important thing if you want to gamble is to have self control. Because if you do not have it then it will be very easy for you to get addicted and mostly there are chances that you will end up in loss because either if you win you will want more money and if you loss then you will play to recover those lost amount.

Also longer you do gambling more chance is that you will be in loss.

certainly true that giving up gambling is not an easy task, it is like a giving up a cigarette. gambling is as like as an addiction. when you got addicted then you have to make an effort to stay away from it. so that you have to choose an alternative way of giving up gambling and attach yourself with a strong determination regarding quit from gambling. then you can get a positive result in this case.

Gambling is same as ciggarette and drugs addiction. It's really hard to giving up and stay away from it, especially if you already lost so much money on gambling. It will become more harder. I think the only way to giving up on gambling is let other people to have your money. I mean, your family can control your money, so you can't control your money for gambling.

All types of addiction are same we can not come out from that addiction easily. It may be cigarette or alcohol or drugs or other addiction. To come out from this addiction we need self confidence and try to practice yoga this will control your emotions. Daily practice yoga you will be calm, and it will increase your patience. 
I agree with you utterly. It is really tough to overcome any kind of addiction. An addict needs a lot courage and support by family to curb his destructive desires. Yoga is one of the greatest ways to control your emotions and generate patience. Religious practices help much in controlling such desires too.

It is possible to get rid of addictions if properly taken care of. That means the person must be willing and must abide by abstinence. Their family and friends should help them in this and give them support. There should be consideration towards the person. The thing of utmost importance that the person who is an addict must understand the graveness of the situation and must stop gambling by controlling their emotions.

Willingness is the key. A person who wants to quit shouldn't have any excuses and would find it in themselves to be in control. I think it's all in the mind. If you really put your mind to it, there won't be anything that can stop you. Yes there are people who succumb to addiction but these people are the ones that are reluctant. They know it's bad for them but they disregard the consequences.

I think willingness is very important and also determination. If they are willing and determined then they can do anything they want with the addictions they have. They can control their own urges and self-emotions such that they wont be addicted any more and that they will be able to control their addictions. If the family support is good then a determined and willing person can be de-addicted

I am willing to quit and leave everything but it is just so hard for me. Sometimes I quit and I keep thinking of coming back , I dont even know what Im doing and the next time I realize was that I started to play again. It is very hard for me to quit that is why I choose to play now just with a small amount

Not just gambling, quitting all kind of addictive things is not possible in a single day. Only time has the potential to cure anything, we need to give enough time to find the changes.

When rushing up to give up gambling, that might lead to psychological disorder also. So, we need to be more careful on handling this. Professional support from experts will be highly suggested so that we can avoid any unwanted situations like psychological problems.

The problem are staking money on certain games is addictive just like a chemical addiction.
The feeling you have always drive you to be back continue to gamble even basically you don't want it.
Indeed it wasn't easy , at least just keep trying until you get used to it.

If we want to come back then we can come back. Why not come back if we only play for fun , if we come back only with a small amount then it is fine. We wont lose alot of money and we could have fun. If we think about only having fun then it isalright to keep on playing just like me
There's nothing called play for fun , gambling is addictive and you will need motivation more than just fun to gamble and addicted to it.
As an addiction come when you do it often anf continuously .
Simply when you want to avoid this just gamble as rare as possible , do it in occasionally only.
to me i think in very beginning i think most of the people think that they play gambling for fun and entertainment, but in fact when they become addicted and then they find it difficult to stop gambling.

Thing is sometimes they easily become addicted when they see the competitions and promotional contests that the casino advertise on. Sometimes they are just keep on winning back their losses. This is bad since chasing losses only lead to more losses. They keep stacking up and never go back. Hence its better to just accept that the money is lost and not to try to win it back.

When you are able to stay away I would suggest that you have to keep on staying away. Because later on you will be successful in quitting gambling as that I did when I was once an addicted gambler before.

I can say that its not really that easy to give up gambling because i have a gambler father. I witnessed his struggle to stop gambling but he cant just do it. Its in his system and it became his life. Before its too late you need to find ways to minimize or just give up on it. Try another hobby that can entertain you.

This I agree with. Imagine those times when you already won but failed to withdraw. And after you realized it, its gone and its too late. Just set limits and treat gambling as a recreational activity and not an everyday task.

It's not easy to give up in gambling in situations of having a lot of economic pressure like debt obligations, I myself have experienced it, but eventually I sold my family property to cover it, and I had time to rehabilitate myself from gambling for two years. But now I can limit myself to not being addicted and in debt even though I'm back in gambling, more on having fun because I've been chasing other prospective businesses.
