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.

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.

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.

Yeah I would totally I agree on you giving up gambling is not easy,
And I don't really know why for some reasons after I decided to quit and stay away from it I will just return after a few days,

It's truly hard to give up gambling, you can try it for yourself and see it with the results on your life. You can conquer it for a week, a day or two. But after that you'll realize that you can't live without gambling. The only way to resist gambling is by seeking help with the almighty God. You should be willing on it and you need to do it with application.

That depends on who willing you are, everyone has its weakness and gambling could be our weakness but we need to realize that if we stay longer and we are already addicted, it will eat our life and we will be living a miserable life. It's all about accepting, you have to be humble in order to quit, it's money that we are wasting and we need that money to live a comfortable life for ourselves and for our family, so let's reflect on that and be unselfish.

We had our very own weakness and I can say you are right with it, we can include gambling as a weakness for each of us. And even we are keep on telling that we will quit gambling very soon, we just can't because it's our weakness and it is almost attached to our lives. Having a companion and helper with this type of weakness is needed.

but for me it is not a weakness of us and we stay stick to gambling because we have to play on these casino for getting entertainment and getting entertainment is not enough for playing only one time we often have some routine for our entertainment.

Nobody said that it is easy to stop gambling. If you are not addicted to it, you can controll yourself a bit to avoid losing rest of moneh, but if you are addicted, you can't controll and you lose money, and then you will always want to gamble again just to win money you lost, which often results in losing everything you have

I think giving up from gambling it's not easy like the title of this topic.
You are right, If you can control yourself when you do gambling with a small amount losing would not be a problem. As me, I do gambling only for fun. I am never considered gambling like a source for profit. because it's too risky.

It is not a matter of considering it as a source of profit but rather of getting profit from it. Most people cant see this fact and ended up getting too deep and considered it as their living. There are many proffesional poker player however not everyone has the chance to make gambling as their way of getting money

If its 8$ or 8 cents actually loosing even a penny in gambling is insane to me.

Why? If you can afford to lose it than it is not insane.

Quote from: naidray on March 31, 2017, 03:34:35 PM

You are working whole day in offices and get tired to earn that money and then you just hand it over to the casino owners ? this is insane !

If you gamble all earned money than it is insane. If you gamble few bucks(or as you mentioned few cents) i don't see how it can be insane.

Quote from: naidray on March 31, 2017, 03:34:35 PM

I have been myself gambling a lot but any week when I loose a lot I really stop gambling for next 2-3 weeks.

And you said gambling is insane? Also gambling few bucks or cents is not the same as loosing a lot. It really doesn't matter if you stop for 2-3 weeks because you won't stop until you lose a lot.

Would we ever pay a beggar 8 usd ? No then why we hand it over to the casinos man ?

It's cute how you think that it's insane yet you're doing it yourself.

This is the service that you get from the casino. You have some fun, and in return, you pay them money. There are times when you get lucky and they pay you instead. It's basically the same as any other services that you get from different places. When you eat in a restaurant, you usually tip the waiter $10. Don't you think that's insane as well? Don't you think that it's insane to give someone $10 for handing you your food when you could've grabbed the food from the counter by yourself and delivered it to your own table?

If your answer is no, then I see no reason as to why you should think that going to casinos and then losing some money is insane.

That's great, as long as you will stay in control, losing would not be a problem. $8 is a small amount of money and I'm sure you
can afford that. I lose more than that amount in a daily basis and I feel alright about it because I love what I'm doing and I do sports
betting which is my favorite game. However, you need to be very careful as when you get hooked, the problem will grow until it's getting serious.

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.

You know what the good things about you, that is you know where your mistakes is and you admitted to yourself that you became greed and and stupid fro all the wrong you've done it before. Therefore, if you really admit it and I think a way to stop to do it was self discipline and self control application.

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.

This is the hard thing to do for a gambler who is addicted in the gambling games. Maybe because they are already controlled by their mind in the addiction that has been input to their brain. I think this thing need a guidance by someone who will remind the gambler about it.

It's basically no use no matter how hard you try to make them realise that gambling isn't good it will all go in vein. Even if you keep any sort of guidance with them no use the best thing is to let them spend all there money , let them use all their savings I can assure you one day they will surely realise.

Well, it is hard for a gambler to realize his faults ,Gambling addiction is not an easy situation for the people around by the one who is addicted .I think it is more on emotion of being a gambler than mind .Emotions is hard to control especially not having enough self discipline .If you think on your mind over emotions you can think normally but, if your emotions exceeds to your mind you can't think on the wrong things that happens to you.
If you let them use their savings i am sure about what will happen next , they will more greedy where to get or to borrow , The time you'll force them and let them realize things what is wrong until its not too late is much better to do than letting them .

So the best solution for this is not to invest in any gambling site in the first place.
If you think you are a kind of person who can't control their emotions after losing or who
can't stop at the right time after gaming profit then don't gamble seriously you will feel better.

Human being is designed that way, if you do anything too much it will eventually become your addiction. Anything you do for fun is good until it becomes addiction. You should divert yourself to another task when ever to feel like you have to gamble now. Anything that gives you pleasure will do.

Not human being is designed that way as not all people are addicted to a thing which they do too much some people do a work for a longer time and when they feel that now they have to stop from that way they immediately stop themselves from there and only a few people who do not understand cannot stop themselves.

I think there is more to addiction than you might think. There are stuff you get addicted because you do it too much but there are also stuff that gets you addicted because of biological reasons.

For example you do not get hooked on drugs because you do too much, there are chemicals in it that gets you addicted, you do not smoke constantly because you do it too much, people who stop smoking for years may relapse. So there are more reasons to getting addicted than “doing too much of it”.

Yes ,quiting gambling is not as easy as we think ,but there are many ways to make unstead of gambling fun exploring other kind og investing or reading interesting and good news or stories also will help us .

It is as easy as we want it to be. Stop being bitches giving yourself excuses not to. You want to then you would, you don't and you won't. I gave up after breaking contact with a friend I used to gamble with, that was my connection to it. And everyone will have one, gutted for you if its because your just a greedy person.
