Yeah i did, for a couple of months i have not been gambling at all, up until a few days ago (maybe a few times just for free rolls).

How did you managed to resist?

Is that all you did, you didn't gamble at all and your mind and body just get used to it that you practice no gambling for a couple of months.

Well, the initial objective of almost everyone here is to make money in gambling but it is a proven fact that you should never walk in the casino thinking about profit.

There are many ways devised to deceive you. So you should rather have your own ways to escape the traps, win and leave. People often loose money and still want to give it a try thinking they will win and loose again so better keep in mind your bank balance.

Have you been able to control the urge to place that bet, spin that wheel or roll
that dice?

If you have a healthy lifestyle and having to put family and friends on top of your mind, gambling wont be a problem to you. The urge to click the bet button will no longer be a problem or even logging into a gambling site.

Good for you

That's what I have been doing too . If we get busy in real life , no need to bother about the gambling . I love being at Bitvest though because well it is like a family for me . I have learnt that , we can control the temptation .

Your attention was diverted into some other things and that's effective.

Your peers are really influensive when you are that type of person that can't say no with their offers.

That is not resistance mate it’s obvious that you only have no time to play and this is not what OP is asking

I can resist sometimes but when my best friend ask me to,then for sure i will go with him in live casino but when I’m at home the call of online betting is resistible and i can manage myself from betting and most specially when my GF is around for sure i will spend my time with her than playing

Yes I can. Gambling does not need to be forced and you are free to bet whenever you want and when you are in a good mood, then you can control the calm in the game. But, when the losing streak hits you then as much as possible you should take a short break, because when you let your emotions be controlled by defeat then it will only make you lose more money.

This is only applicable for the occasional gambler but those already involved for sure it’s not easy for them to resist the call specially when they have amount to play

Would be interested to hear how people can control this.

Lucky for me, I have resisted myself from getting addicted into gambling. There are times that I want to gamble everyday but I don't have any funds to gamble and to be honest, my lack of funds helped me to prevent getting addicted into gambling.

I wish some gamblers can control themselves when they are gambling. Many gamblers can't resist themselves when they started gambling. In their mind, they want to gamble everyday and will just stop if they have no funds already.

Have you been able to control the urge to place that bet, spin that wheel or roll
that dice? For you to be able to go a length of time away from the adrenaline.

Maybe not control, but actually i don't spare money a lot for gambling. That is why maybe i can spend all of my money and then back again with spare money if i already profit from something else.

That is not what every one does and losses actually have a psychological impact on the mind and really make you stay in the gambling which results in more losses under pressure.

So, what I want to say is that having good control over your nerves and in the same time following your strategy that is your set price levels and your stop loss points, you might be able to resist if you are loosing. You might be able to stop and take away the profits home when you are winning.

Well for much better give my self a limit it comes to gambling or bets because in the end of the day we are the one who lose and win. And much better to put a money that we can afford to lose to our every bets. We all know that gambling is for fun only not just serious type of gambling special online casino.

I also now i have total control of gambling, i gamble more in past but now i only gamble for fun, and i not gamble this year yet, but for me is enough even if i gamble once at 3 months, i have other job to do and really don't have enough time to gamble as in past and now i only gamble sometimes but rarely.

Gambling for fun is our of the best way to gamble because if you bring profits in it there is no way you will not make loses. For those that are struggling with gambling addict it is advisable for you to shift your attention from profit making to fun making!

Gambling for fun can also make you addicted just like playing a video game but its more better than having a mindset of greed where you will aim for the profit and if ever you will not won it will make you sad or depressed which can lead to more issues . gambling is really hard to resist at first but once you realize that there are other important things that needs to be prioritze , you will slowly limit yourself from playing .

Right.I agree.Do not focus your attention on gambling alone so that you can refrain from always doing it and spend some of your time from your priorities.Gambling is good if you don't play it often and you only gamble for fun.Because if you make it as your only source of living,then that's when greed attacks and addiction follows next.

This had been always the purpose of gambling on where it is just really good for entertainment purposes but most people or gamblers do extent out too far away
and coming to a point where they do make it as a living which is really a bad thing because you would come to a point on risking the money that shouldn't really be spent like your life savings.
If you cant resist such temptation then expect for your life to be messed up.

Once you get into it, you cannot control it and you get addicted. Even if you don't think you are, trust me after you play a few dozens of times you will get addicted because thats how they are designed to make you. I personally cannot stop the urge of betting and that's because I want more money every time. And that's probably what everyone who is gambling or betting feels. You can't stop it.

If a person does not have willpower, then it is better for him not to participate in gambling at all, otherwise he has chances to lose everything he has.

Let me make the real time scenario very clear to you. People are who are going to gamble are obviously those who are having a low to medium income and living a high risk life. You wont see established well earning people getting addicted to gambling much. This is because of the difference in intellectual level. The low income group has nothing to hold on to and are thus ready to risk all their money for that big multiplier amount. They are obviously dumb enough to gamble that way.

Mindset is the most influential of assets humans have been blessed with. It no doubt depends on your level of intellect about the gambling that is how well you understand it and are you willing to gamble despite the risk of loosing.

Having sufficient finances might back you to go for gambling and loss might not bother you but those with low financial background always end up asking for loans after they loose everything. Thus walk out of shame to their homes.

I totally agree with this. People who have a job or are trying to get into one should be aloof from the gambling addiction. Addiction mainly happens to those who dont have a job or are trying to make ends meet with little amounts every now and then. Social security in the States makes things worse. They end up gambling with their money and still living off it. It makes them less productive in my opinion.

One of the best ways to get rid of addiction is accepting that the games will only make you lose more and that you are capable of making much more in life than trying your luck and milking out your money to the casino owners. This needs determination but surely it will help.

Learn to control yourself, what if you have more free time in life then it would make your life miserable.
Gambling is not bad, it can entertain us but without limitation, we will never get the real entertainment, just allocate a certain money and time in gambling and you'll be safe.
