Have you been able to resist the addiction and not let gambling consume you?

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.

Would be interested to hear how people can control this.

Yes I have been able to resist the addiction with regards to playing gambling because I take resposibility in every action I do. I just take playing gambling as fun and entertainment so that I can resist the tempatation of playing it more than my desired limitation. It is just easy to overcome once you know why you are doing it. If you are thinking and treating gambling to be a good source of profit, then it will be hard for you to resist because you will just keep on chasing your loss and that you will just keep on playing all over again until you get dependent on it and that leads to addiction. It is a must need that you will treat gambling only as a game to play and do not let this game play into your mind to resist being addicted on it. I have that strong motivation to resist it whenever I am playing into an online casino I am currently into because I am just enjoying playing their variety of games in proper moderation and keep in mind that I am playing for the sake of fun and enjoyment and not pressuring myself that I must win to have profit from it and also, I do enjoy their great bonus for doing my first deposit.

It will just be that easy to resist if you know how to control yourself and you do know the reason why you are playing gambling. Well, on my case, I do know that I am playing just for the sake of fun and entertainment which is nothing more and nothing less so I just enjoy the game play all throughout and can be able to resist from the temptation of playing more than the moderate play I used to do. It was indeed enjoyable if you were be able to receive such bonus so I do also want to experience how you feel on playing into that online casino you were talking about.

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.

I did. I usually put a time limit in playing gambling. One hour is the maximum. Through this technique, I was able to maxmize my control and going beyond that could make things worse. It maybe hard if it's actual but if you're really disciplined, it would be easy for you.

If you are unlucky enough even one minute is enough to wipe out your entire balance leaving you hanging with nothing to play with and your entire balance gone down the drain. Its as simple as taking a 50-50 chance with your money - whatever time you provide to it is irrelevant. This has nothing to do with maximizing control because to do that you need to reduce your time spent on gambling from 1hour. Not sure if you started at higher time and reached 1hour - in which case its a good sign.

However controlling your time wont affect your profit or loss. That would only be affected if you stop playing totally.

You also need to have money limit for yourself because while gambling for one hour even you can lose everyhing at no time so just stop playing on that day when you lost your limited momey.

Having a discipline will not easy for every gambler because we need an effort to practice every day and we need to do that thing over and over again until we can fully control ourselves. We need to have the power to control our mind so we can be able to resist the addiction and not getting another loss.

So far, I can resist myself to not playing gambling for more than 30 minutes, and I feel it's enough when I can play any games in 10-20 minutes.

It is not easy to stop gambling and to stop betting but one thing is very important and that is reducing the risk involved by gamble with the fund you can afford to lose.

If people have will power it will be easy for them to even break the addiction and come out of it . Also another thing is that people should avoid being greedy as it will solve many issues while gambling and play for fun and enterinment .

You can actually control it. Know your limits and know your boundaries. That's the first thing we have to consider in gambling. It is pretty good in feeling if we are winning but that doesn't mean that gambling will be the first priority.

Honestly speaking, There's a point where I couldn't resist and literally gambling consumed me. Though, after the rehab process, I managed to resist everything and managed to control myself above else. It was difficult at first but as time passed by, but it's must be done for the sake of my family and myself.

Well, There are times that I can control it but most of time I can't (Addictive state days). Especially, when I trying to chase my losses and sometimes when on a winning streak I felt like it could go for more and more, up until I lose. It' s a cycle, that never ends for me that time.

I can't say that I always manage to control the urge, but I can do it most of the time, and I think that's a good result already. The key is to never despair after losing your grip just once. You are not yet an addicted gambler even though you've acted like one on this or that occasion. Come to terms with the fact that you can lose it once in a while, and be glad that this is not happening frequently. Those failures should be taken into account, and the amount you lose per month with due account for them still shouldn't be greater than that what you can afford to lose. That's what I do.

When I first discovered Dice it became my obsession. I couldn't wait to wake up and open my PC and start gambling. In the beginning, I was winning and this harmed me more than made me any better. But suddenly I lost all my funds and I was feeling so terrible about my self that I wanted to recover.
Now, in order to control it I gamble with TRX which can be frozen so If i lose my fund that it is for gambling I am not able to bet more.

It's easy if you will not pursue, it's only hard if you are already addicted and you cannot just spend what you can afford to lose when you are addicted, you'll spend everything you have because you will never be satisfied even if you win. Self discipline is necessary, we can resist if we control ourselves, it's okay to gamble but there should only be a specified time for that as not all the time our life will evolved in gambling.

I did. In fact, gambling was never a hindrance for me for a happier life. It gives me fun at the same time I don't forget to control my emotion.

Good thing for you, what's your secret?

Nothing but control in youself. Playing gambling games should be in a moderate manner. It's fun, but it doesn't mean it should be limitless.

I have to agree on this one, it doesn’t mean that you are having fun you will still continue even if you already lose big money. Gambling is an expensive way to have fun so you must have a limit to yourself. I know gambling well, so I have to resist every time I hit my target limit.

I have seen many ways where people enjoy and have fun, but those who seek fun only in gambling are the ones who spent a lot of money to get such an expensive fun in case they lose Grin

Exactly.Gambling could be more fun and even profitable if we only play it based on our own limits.We know how addictive it is so once we gamble,we should see to it that we should not let our emotions be carried and just only play what we can afford to lose.I personally gamble depending on my own budget and once i lose,i really nevery tried chasing it again because i think it will only make me lose even more.

Firstly we should define the limits on how much we gonna invest in gambling. Secondly we gonna decide on how much profit we will be going away with and will not be greedy. These seems to be small things but they are very important for success.

Honestly once I started to gamle too often then I will get accumulate to the condition so easy but it will be hard to get out of the situation my mind keep telling me to keep betting and it will happen ince I start to make some profits while betting initially that is why most of the time I will just be happy when I lose few money while start to bet because it will make me less lucky and keep me away from gambling for few more days.

That sudden feeling who always calling you to play some more, this things happen from you and echoing your actions, good catch when
you able to accept your losses and quit after and not to push your luck and bring more money inside your bankroll.

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.

I have enough will power. If I go to a casino, I usually plan the amount I want to spend and beyond which I will not go. In order to get adrenaline I like to play roulette and poker.
I have never lost more than the intended amount, and often I even managed to return home with a win.

But that will power wont really be the same on each person.Lets say you do have enough but majority of gamblers doesn't really have which in result
they would go overboard on what they do spend on gambling.Those plans and limits are meant to be destroyed specially when you are already on a adrenaline rush that's why
its always been important to be aware on your own actions and be sensible enough.

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.
