Well this is true if you do not follow the basic rules

1) To have discipline in life
2) Self control that only this amount to be played if lost, then you will leave the casino
3) Not to borrow any money from any one

It depends on a person though, following this rules might just lower the risk of losing too much money and not really want to quit gambling. Gambling is not that easy to quit if it becomes a habit, because no matter what you do, it is just feel that your day is incomplete without you doing it, so there is no way to quit just like that.

It is like you are trying to forget someone you knew even though you know you cannot, but if you are really dedicated to do so, then you can do it, just don't fool your own self with your promises.

nothing easy when you want to leave your habit, the only way are by replace it by another habit , hope with that new habit as time goes by you could forgetting the old habit and moving onto the new one. so better to find something you like most in your life and set it as your hobby to keep yourself have no time to even think about gambling anymore.

Yeah if you want to quit gambling then you need to divert yourself towards some other hobbies and that will help you in giving up gambling but if you are addicted to gambling then it will become very hard to quit it and you will keep on coming back again and again.

when you feel you have got addicted to gambling usually it's just the feeling. the only one who can judge whether are you addicted or not are other people , so you need several opinion from someone that close enough with you and you might can draw a conclusion. after that you are good to go to start thinking about a distraction , to move your ass from a bad habit called gambling.

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.

Are you serious? You tried many things but you are forgetting one very important thing - you are promoting gambling site in your signature and you are talking about gambling every single day. Of course it is not easy for you!
When you feel bored, why don't you take ball and go outside? Call friends and drink coffee with them? Unplug your PC for a month or two?

Since his addiction in gambling is quite severe, It will be better to just shut himself in anything that includes gambling, I'm sure he haven't tried that yet Wink

. If you're looking to divert your attention to, Look for something productive like the one he suggested first, I'm afraid that you might get something new to be addicted at when you play games . If you literally tried everything you can think of then the time has come to visit a doctor .

I dont think that anything is wrong with that. What if he only gamble a small amount and he could make alot in a month from his salary? thats not really destroying his life but he is just more of having fun with gambling because he has nothing else to do so I guess that is just a fine thing to do if he is not frustated with it

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.

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.

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

For me first and the third point looks very effective, It is not easy to quit gambling suddenly so first try to kill your free time with any other work or any other activities. Once you do not get time to play gambling then slowly you will come out from this addiction. And The parents help is much needed, the experts just give you suggestions, but the parents will take care for you until you come out from this addiction.

Yep that is not easy you can give up by gambling by part by part small by small,because in playing gambling sometimes it became a addiction so better to play for fun than play for winning because if you win at first you can loss many times and it became addiction so better to play it for fun purpose only.

You are right it is not compulsory to give up gambling if someone is losing their money in gambling but they have gamble for fun only and for that purpose they have to spend only that money in gambling which they can afford for entertainment and which will not affect his daily financial life.

Yeah and if you are gambling once in a blue moon then there is nothing wrong with it and even if you loose then it won't affect your financial wealth badly as you will be mentally prepared from the early stage as even you loose it will not make any difference.

Hi guys and girls! After making quite a lot of money then losing it and crying about it half the afternoon I have decided to give up gambling for good. Its not for me in have a much too addictive personality. So now I just plan to work for casinos but not gamble.

The thing is you know you should cash out but you always want just that little bit more and then u lose the whole lot. I'm stupid and greedy. Right after I lost i put more in and doubled it then I went all in and lost it. So yes u can make a killing gambling with such a small about like a few dollars but then u lose all u make and waste a lot of time and energy and end up getting upset. Also i shake like mad when I gamble and I hate that. I tremble. When I lose I can't believe what the screen is telling me.

So any thoughts ? Ways to stop ? Ways to gamble with play money ? Maybe there are dust gambling casinoes I can use? U know just for fun and for the fix.

My thoughts in you is I think those people who can help you first personally before asking help in this thread section was you family, relatives, wife if you have, or other closest friend to you. It will surely, can give you a guidance for concern problems of yours. In the end, you will never notice these people will you a hand for to change for you to give up your gambling problem.

its a very nice diversion to keep your mind busy instead of thinking how to play smart inside gambling why not try to play online games which also allow you to think if what particular strategy that you can use in order to win or in order to upgrade your character, just find time for yourself to control your gambling problem and try new alternatives.

Yes. The strategies are more when it comes to online gaming because the games are not just for a day or a month, it'll take years to get a good character.
I agree that online gaming too kills our time as gambling does but at least we'll not loose money. So I think it's good alternative when you want to stop gambling.

Not only gaming could be the killer of your time. Whatever activities we do can be a time killer. And to distract from gambling, gaming can be very useful indeed, gaming is one of the best time killer. But in addition to gaming, the more useful activity can be a killer time. Working in the morning and during the day, and use the time for a gaming night before bed can do.

Gambling is a time killer and also a money killer, most of the time when we spend more time we lose more, that is the reality and we have to agree with that. Giving up in gambling is not easily if you cannot let go of what you have lose, every move you make is necessary and you will never gonna quit gambling if you cannot find another interest that would attract you to spend more time on it.

We have different interest but let's ensure that it is not a gambling related interest because the process will be ruin and we will still be in gambling.

Online gaming suits only a small user group to avoid gambling, because online gaming too cause an addiction in other form,. Online gamingcan be used to kill time but gambling at least gives an experience to avoid losses and sometimes the time and money we loss gets gained back in a single event just because of luck.

Playing online games might work but does depend on individuals interest regarding into it because if he just forced his self on playing online but his mindset is on gambling he will definitely play up again because its easy to access gambling sites when you are holding up pc and you will surely be tempted to play again better to focus on physical games.
