We really can't quit gambling alone we need to accept the fact that we can't do it by ourselves. Seeking help with others is just a normal and it shouldn't be a thing to be ashamed of. Because if you are desperate to quit gambling you will do something for it, whether it will come from professional, friends or family.

Seeking help in professionals like psychologist will do. Friends and families that are there for you no matter what is a good factor because you will have a reason for change. But no matter that change is still depends on ourselves. Because we are the captain of our mind and soul. And sometimes dramatic event that happened in your life can make you quit gambling too.

quitting in gambling is the hardest thing that most gamblers can't do it so easily, and its hard because of the addiction they had in their character. But if you are really determined to quit, you can make it as long as you close person which it can be your family, parents, girlfriend/wife, and friend who can guide with your problem.

Yup, one it became a habit it will be hard to break. Some cells in your body urge you to gamble because it became hungry for gambling. Of course the determination is there but the factors that still urge you to gamble will be a problem on quitting. But still if other really did stop gambling why can't you? Right?

Yeah, once you are totally addicted on it. The same addiction with drugs and other things. With the help of those people you had mentioned and seeing the support they are giving to you, for sure you'll realize that they are not giving up on you and you should keep on fighting with that addiction in able to give back their support and show them that you can.

Families, relatives, love ones, if we have something to protect on, if we have someone that pushes us to quit, if we have someone that lit the fire in a heart to change it will be great. The problem nowadays is that lacking support of those who he love. Or he doesn't have someone at all. Sad right? They say that when people are not there for you and you need to stand in yourself you will be stronger. But the truth is that people you love and treasure that always been there for you is what makes you stronger. Don't leave people who like to better themselves.

You don't know any of these things because he didn't say anything about it. He said he is addicted to gambling and it's literally impossible to quit, and I can't agree with that. Also he said online gaming is good to forget about gambling and i can't agree on that either. Online gaming can lead to addiction too.


Anything in excess is bad, and anything that triggers any alteration of mood and person became dependent on it can also be called addiction.  But if we are talking about giving up gambling, anything that can divert a person attention away from gambling can help.  Are you saying that due to the fact that a certain thing is addicted he should not try it and be use to divert his attention away from gambling?  So if you can't agree with online gaming to forget gambling what would you advice him to do?  Go out on a date and have fun with peers?  That can be addicting too, so from your definition you should not agree with that too right?  Even eating is addicting. So he should not eat either?  All should be taken in moderation  that is my opinion and I agree with online gaming (not online gambling) as diversion.

As long as they dont destroy themselves because of it, it is better not to quit. Sometimes when you try to quit, you will keep on remembering the moment that you spend your time on that so eventually you will come back again. Just dont destroy yourself by gambling too much and you should be fine with it
You are right, It is extremely hard to quit gambling for addicted people. I think it's like a drug for them.  I don't agree to stop them for doing gambling. but if they decrease this addiction day by day, it will be nice.
Maybe one day, can stop it. Anyways, doing gambling is awesome for me. I don't do it for profit or to be rich or somthing like that, It's just for fun. Usually, I feel good when i placed a bet.

Many people became broke because of gambling, addiction is a serious disease, you know they can't stop when they win or lose. Pathetic gamblers.

It's pathetic and that's why I would recommend a psychologist for any potential gambler because when you eventually lose more than you can handle then you should know that's the dead end and if care isn't taken you'll become an addict.

A professional psychiatrist / psychologist needs to help gamblers that are in such serious situation like this one. There are some saying that it won't help and it will depend to the gambler but with such guides from these people will help you to give up gambling easily also don't forget your family will play a big role for it.

Quitting from gambling is definitely not easy. If someone is really determine to quit from it, it should come from both sides, the people that advices/guides you to quit from gambling and yourself that really want to escape from addiction. That way you will slowly get out of addiction from gambling and start a new chapter of your life.

Of course you should do the initiative and you need to have the willingness to quit gambling. If you are not that willing then what's the sense of quitting if you are not willing. Also you need to find some more interesting thing that will catch your attention so that you can have some time for relaxation to yourself and forget gambling a little by little.
Willingness to quit gambling would really be needed and should really be the first step because next steps wont be effective or useless if since from the start you are not willing on quitting it because you will surely play gambling again no matter what. Strong patience,determination and discipline would really be require for you to quit gambling gradually.
Those you have mentioned that a gambler needs to quit gambling is very essential. You should really push yourself in quitting because if you will not push yourself and you are not determined with your plan for it. You will just fail yourself on quitting. But if you are aspiring and hopeful to quit gambling, go for the goal.

I think that the best way to quit gambling is to realize that you are an addict and then to sick for help.
If you ask a professional help they could help you much better then u could help yourself.

We really can't quit gambling alone we need to accept the fact that we can't do it by ourselves. Seeking help with others is just a normal and it shouldn't be a thing to be ashamed of. Because if you are desperate to quit gambling you will do something for it, whether it will come from professional, friends or family.
quitting in gambling is the hardest thing that most gamblers can't do it so easily, and its hard because of the addiction they had in their character. But if you are really determined to quit, you can make it as long as you close person which it can be your family, parents, girlfriend/wife, and friend who can guide with your problem.

It is part of your life if you choose not to let it go. There are always an option for you to stop, either you take it and stop or that you continue to gamble. Nothing is going to change when you choose to stop however your mind is not determined enough to stop. It is crazy to see people see this as a huge complex problem

The best way to stop is to take all of your money off of the  gambling sites so you can't access it as easily. Then just make your money harder to get to by leaving it in the bank and only get out what you need for bills, food, rent, etc.

i dont think what you are saying will work in stopping gambling because if one is already addicted to gambling, he will do anything to have money to gamble. even if he put it in a bank. remember he has still access to it. so he may cash out from his bank, cash in to his wallet then buy bitcoin and gamble again. Smiley

Maybe, but I think it could possibly be one thing he could do along with many other things. Of course, some kind of counseling and a support group would probably be needed as well.
- I think when a person is addicted to gambling, they will do everything to make money playing gambling. They can not control their behavior and they will be very upset if they do not gamble. And making them more difficult to withdraw money, that only makes them crazy, it's hard to imagine what would happen if they did not get the money. Maybe they are going to rob or kill someone and then they will become a dangerous criminal. Giving up gambling needs to be done over the long term, we should not force them

you are less apt to ask here and I guess all the people here have never stopped gambling. The first you should do is stop accessing gambling the rest you can wrap yourself with work or something else that takes your time.

If a person will calculate its expenditures in gambling and for his other daily needs then he will not be in situation that he will lose all of his money and will not be in a position that he will lose his money which he have kept for his daily needs.

It is not about calculation that will make you avoid spending , or losing money that you should not have lost, instead it is the execution of plan.  It is how you will control yourself from betting those money allocated for family needs.  Many people know how to calculate but the problem is the implementation of it.

Most certainly. People just get greedy as soon as they start winning a little and forget their own limits. This is why gambling is so dangerous for newbies. Only a certain percentage of people pass through it to become experienced and also financially normal.
People should put their limits first, they should know what they are afford to loose.

I also like to know and want to learn if any member here can share his idea how to stop my addicting with gambling, specially in sportbook betting..

There are a lot of ways to stop your addiction in gambling.

1. Try to look for some activities that can eat the time you use for gambling.
2. Consult a psychiatrist or a mental expert for helping you out what to do.
3. Learn to appreciate your parents help, they will be the most effective people to help you out with it.
4. Use your money wisely.

This is just some on my list.
I think when the problem is too big already you have to do the number 2 in the list, you cannot quit or give up without the help of other people and since there are professionals that can help you, you must be willing to be help. We need to change from bad to good and it is just right to be submissive all the time and follow what is right for us to continue the healing process. Never underestimate gambling addiction as it has ruin many lives already.

I agree, it should be tried out though there are people says that this isn't helpful but for me this will help you out. Even it will cost money, it will be worth it if those severe addicted gamblers wants to give an appropriate solution to stop their addiction. Just follow what will be the possible solution or suggestion he/she will give to you.

I think the third option would basically have the best impact if you're really considering quitting. Just think about what you're parents are going to go through if you continue with your addiction. Though if you are able to gamble responsibly, I don't think it has to come to it. You can gamble if you want but you have to know the responsibility that comes with what you're doing

It depends on how much you appreciate your parents help. All of them are helpful and it depends upon where you are able to give up gambling. As long it will be helpful to you just take the advantage of them all otherwise you are not giving some space for other things and you don't have the willingness to give it up for real.

Find a new hobby to replace gambling. Try working out, learning to code, video games or something like that. I wouldn't recommend gambling with play money, the best thing to do is do some new hobby whenever you feel the urge to gamble. Just keep it up and the urge will eventually go away.
That's a good idea dude, or you can also try to play sports were you can also have a chance to build some new friend which I think is a good new hobby and a healthy lifestyle too. At least your attention will not be focus in gambling site, with this thing you will be expose publicly in the field.

That is just another reason on why people shouldnt gamble when they cant afford what they are going to lose. When you choose to gamble, be aware of the risk that you are going to lose some money so better be prepared and only use funds that you can afford ( meaning that you could lose it and dont care about it )

Easy..? It's literally not possible. I tried many things to loosen up my addiction but only gaming was useful, that too online gaming. All other ideas were good only for 5-10 data after that I got bored and started gambling again.
So I would suggest you the same. Try some online gaming where you can kill your free time and forget gambling.

Well, i want to tell, i started to play gambling, because i did play online games, and than i start to do betting and in this way, i started gambling. But as you suggest it worked because we are addicted to play games, than online games, both are same, but we are save in only online games, because in this way, our money is save.

When you have very little time from your job and you are earning well, it would be better if you are addicted to games rather than gambling.
Gambling may take all the money you have earned where as gaming would take only time. So I feel it is a great alternative if you want to leave your addiction to gambling.

i am agree with you because if we are addicted in games only, then we don't have to use our money to do gamble and we can use our money to buy another thing like food, drink or others while we are playing the games. we should thinking serious that playing gambling can make our money loss forever.
If a person will calculate its expenditures in gambling and for his other daily needs then he will not be in situation that he will lose all of his money and will not be in a position that he will lose his money which he have kept for his daily needs.
