What to do;

Always get engaged with other important works, or even gets more attention to your children/wife or Husband and family members within, with this there is less chances of you becoming addicted to gambling

Preventing gambling addiction is simple but many gamblers ignore the advice being told about how to avoid gambling addiction. Occupying yourself with activities isn't going to help you out. It might make you not get addicted for the main time but when those things that were making you occupied leave, you'll return back to your old habits and it might've been worst than how it was the last time. Don't run away from your problems but try to solved them completely so they don't come back in the future to torment you again.

Don't gamble as how an uneducated individual will gamble but gamble with a strategy so you don't become an addict. Stay engaged but the engagement shouldn't be because you want to run away from your problem but because that thing that's keeping you engaged is more important that wasting your resources in the casino gambling.

The third point you made is accurate, people expect too much from gambling as a result of this they tend to make some unwise choices... seeing gambling as a way to become financially stable is one way to actually hit rock bottom within a short period of time, you can easily get addicted once you start thinking of hitting millions from it. Instead of getting overly obsessed with gambling, get busy with your occupation so you won't have time to start thinking of how to make gambling a source of income.. Gamble moderately and stay in control.

I am not an active gambler, but everything that the op said I don't consider it a joke, and I still do it so that I don't get into trouble because of gambling and unwanted things, because there are so many unpleasant incidents due to gambling addiction.

As a gambler who was formerly a gambling addict, checking the overview of my gambling habits is what I do regularly in other to regulate my excesses in gambling. Checking your gambling habits helps in helping a gambler to know when he's over gambling and that's why it's very necessary for gamblers to do it at intervals so they don't end up with regrets.

I have hard a lot of former gambling addict's making this kind of statement that their have their gambling activities on check but then also we have to be very carefully in doing that and that is because once an addict it becomes very easy to fall back into addictions again, most especially through usage of cryptocurrency casinos and online casinos that makes gambling very easy and privacy oriented at most times, so for that we have to be extra careful while gambling most especially when we want to have our gambling habits checked, the best format to go with this is to involve some financial statistics that check our gambling inflow, sauce as how frequent we deposites into our casino account and how much we have witdrened from it and what is the leftover.

Because through that means, one can easily put everything under checked and be able to minimise the level of their gambling, at most having that in place and checked, the next thing to put into view also is you timing in gambling because if you check that you are not losing money, also check what the amount of time you have wasted in gambling.

Just as the title has expressed it all, and I would want to know how important and very necessary we have been taking our gambling habit serious. Like our overall performance, behavior attitudes and environmental impact of our gambling behaviors;

such as what people says about you, how your family talks about you or are you gradually becoming a problems to your family?

How your family reacts to your gambling lifestyle depends on your level of positivity or negativity in gambling because for someone who often gets winning from gambling i don't think they will become problematic to their families because their family will surely be a beneficiary to those winnings and gambling is mostly considered a bad habit only when a gambler is not winning but if he does wins most times then there won't be a problem.

Or are you finding yourself not to stay without gambling for 4-10 hrs per day, weeks and so on?
Are you having less time for other activities whereby giving your work less priority and making gambling your utmost importance than your work and home?

If yes then it's imperatively to narrow down your eagerness, and activeness towards gambling as you have already fallen into addiction and if you find yourself into this conditions then you need to reduced.

Just like i said, the time you spend in gambling only becomes a problem when you are not making a head way from it but knowing very well that gambling is highly dependent on luck, gamblers ought to know that spending a lot of time while gambling is not advisable, it is better to give much attention to other jobs that generates income for them. Reducing one's eagerness or activeness in gambling is a personal decision that comes naturally to someone who has already fallen to addiction, so for a gambler who is addicted to reduce their high urge to gamble all the time is not as easy as it seems.

Even though you are making progress from gambling there would be a time were you would definitely be spaced from your family and love ones due to gambling addictions, and you know what mostly brings and stir up addictions is how often you do win while gambling. If you are constantly winning then addiction is already sitting on your door because as then you would feel to keep the winning coming and people would always be looking at you to win especially your family when the benefits aren't fort coming then, you as the gambler would always want a way to please them.

But however, losing more money makes you starts having double thought to keep gambling while winning energized you to keep gambling to make more winning at this point it becomes a problems that is why you must watched your overall performance, It does not matter whether you are constantly winning or not but it's a kind of overview to check your life styles and make adjustment if there were chances of you falling into any of the outlined writeup.

I may have gained control over gambling now but there was a time when I lost complete control over gambling. When I had misconceptions about gambling, I thought that the more money I used to gamble, the more likely I was to win. I lost a lot of money gambling with such thoughts but I never quit gambling even though for a while I felt that what I was doing was wrong and I should stop here. But when I started to motivate myself, I slowly tried to control my gambling and to some extent I succeeded. Now I gamble when I want to and gambling doesn't make me feel bad if I don't gamble.
People will want to do what they are used to, so those who are still addicted to gambling, if they want to get out of that addiction, they can certainly come out.

That is normal if you experienced losing control over gambling because many people have the same as you. But you are lucky to realize your mistake and trying to control yourself when playing gambling. Not many people can do that instead going deeper in gambling without taking the realization that they are lose too much money and have more problems. If someone aware of what he did in gambling and want to stop the mistake, he will have a chance to solve the problem while he will trying to motivate himself by saying that he can do that because he doesn't want to get deeper in gambling. Yes, we can do that and we have ability to control ourselves so we don't have to give up to control our gambling habit. We must check our gambling progress time by time and stop gambling if necessary.

I haven't been able to explore the impact of gambling on my life since I have it under control and do not gamble all the time whenever I can. I'm more into playing games and not gambling. I know that gambling addiction is crucial, and there will be signs once there is an effect on parts of your life.

I believe that self-reflection is a key component to being more controlled and acknowledging what you are going through.

Other activities might be better, IMO.

The more you gamble, the more you will lose, and of course that cannot be denied, everything that OP said is almost complete to overcome the effects of online gambling addiction, it's just that the implementation is so difficult, but if you are serious I am sure you will definitely get rid of it

Losing should not be the major concern of a gambler because like it or not, loses will always come as long as it is gambling. So, instead of focusing on how not to lose money like many gamblers do by chasing loses, the best is to control how much you put in so that you will be able to protect your capital from being wasted when you encounter an unlucky gambling day. As long as the bulk of the capital is protected, luck will always shine on the gambler to win another time. What is bad is losing everything and coming to start all over again.

Of course, I agree with your first opinion that defeat should not be a concern for gamblers because defeat will always be a real part of the game, moreover from the beginning it is clear that gambling is a risky activity that not only provides opportunities to win for gamblers but also certainly provides the possibility of losing some money for gamblers.
Therefore, this is why the approach to gambling must always be done with great care, not meaning that it will free you from the risk of defeat but to minimize the amount of defeat so that it is not too big like gambling with only a little money.

Basically, gambling is recommended to be done with full balance, in the sense that besides a gambler hoping to win, they must also apply risk management such as an approach that is full of consideration and prevention.

Overall I think I have got gambling under control pretty well, I have not found myself in a situation in which I spend more money I can afford to lose yet and my family is awre of my personal finances, which is something I have learnt many gamblers do not like to talk about with their family, because of the stigma associated with gambling. In reality, if one's family actually cares about our well-being it is very constructive and recommendable to talk about them about it, so they can serve as some kind of "thermometer" so we can know whether where are going out our own personal boundaries with our wager and losing control of our gambling budget.

I also find it is necessary to have other activities in mind, not only gambling or betting in sports, things like working, exercising and talking to others in real life keep us in touch with reality and do not allow addiction to develop without our noticing. As soon as we started to fall for problem gambling there would be a warning from both friends and family on how much we have changed our habits and the wrong doing we are committing against ourselves. There is nothing worse than being addicted to gambling and having nobody to support us before we fall even lower into a bottomless pit...

I am not a person who has played games of chance that depend on luck, but I have played a game of chance that depends on luck and I confess that to this day I remember that day, because I spent 5 hours non-stop playing. That day I realized that games of chance like Plinko, Gates of Olympus, Sweet Bonanza are games that can make people play for many hours. So being able to create a plan of maximum hours of games that a person can play and setting a maximum limit of money that a person can play will not be an easy task. For example, in my case, I only place sports bets and the games only take place on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and in some weeks on Tuesdays and Wednesdays when there are European Champions League or Europa League games. So I do not place bets every day and it is easy for me to only play with money that I can afford to lose. Now for people who play Gates of Olympus for example, they can play every day and every day

I also prefer betting on the Champions League and do not spend too much time to understand who to bet on. But remembering my young years in gambling and the heyday of online poker, I could play MTTs all night long. If I managed to get far, I had to play almost until the morning. I was able to withstand this regime for about half a year, but then I realized that this is not life and tied it up completely. Despite this, I would occasionally play a few online poker tournaments with pleasure, but I'm afraid if I start, then in the middle of the night I will just fall asleep from boredom, lol.

As a responsible gambler, you should never face problems simply because you came unprepared. What I mean is, we need to educate ourselves about the risks of addiction. It’s true--learning how to gamble and falling in love with it is easy, but we can’t ignore that some gamblers get addicted over time. Based on my experience, here are two main reasons why this happens:

Greed** aiming for bigger wins and never being satisfied with small victories.
Chasing losses**not being able to accept losing and placing more bets just to break even or come out ahead.

This is the problem most gambler's always have which they feel their is no need to get education in gambling because they believe gambling is a game one can go into just like that. Because of the lack of understanding people don't even know when they are getting addicted to gambling. I think what gamblers needs is self consciousness , atleast this will help to pattern one's self in gambling. All gamblers have in mind is making profit and they never care about having understanding. Understanding reduce risks and prevent one from becoming addicted to gambling.

As a serious gambling addict, it will be difficult to change their way of thinking, and whatever they think is all about gambling, OP's advice will be very useful if successfully implemented, even though it is difficult, do it slowly so that you feel more comfortable.

The gambling addict will not able to think in the different way,because he was in the gambling addiction.So he will think in different way as compared to other gambling people.The gambling addicted person will only think to recover the loss from the gambling site.But if you play the gambling to recover the loss from the gambling site,it’s not possible one.Because the gambling is not a business,it’s the game.So the gambling had the negative effect,if you play the gambling with the emotions in the gambling.The gambling addicted person will not feel comfortable if the not play the gambling when they have money in their wallet.

It all depends on the gambler's desire. I have known people who have been gambling all their lives and some of them have replaced this entertainment with less risky activities. Anyone who gambles should realise that gambling is a pastime that constantly requires money like many other pastimes. Playing gambling for the last money in the hope of winning is a difficult goal to achieve. But unfortunately many gamblers do not realise this. Or pretend not to understand.

Gambling is of different categories. there are those who gamble just for fun and always accept their losses immediately. and they don't care in the country because his income is a very small amount he spends on gambling. Because of this he never tracks his gambling activity. Another category of gamblers do not check their gambling activity because they are deeply addicted to gambling which is why gambling acts like oxygen to them. But responsible gamblers always track their activity. Because they always want to protect themselves from great harm

It takes a huge amount of determination, time and very decisive self will to achieve that to review your own habits. I have been doing it not from so long and so far I have achieve some results, some good results but definitely not definitive results, so I have come to a point where I started depositing one time 80% of what I used to do then 70% and now am at 50% which I have as an objective to go as low as possible and a final objective to make 0 deposits, this can only be achieved with time as you see I am doing it little by little so start from where you are use whatever you have like that US president said once. It is in no other way possible to stop addiction if you are deep into it without going to a rehab center.

Checking your gambling habits helps in helping a gambler to know when he's over gambling and that's why it's very necessary for gamblers to do it at intervals so they don't end up with regrets.

In order not to over gamble you need to introduce two restrictions into your gambling experience: a deposit limit and a limit on the frequency of gambling. I have been trying to adhere to these restrictions for several years and quite differently look at gambling. And in general to play less gambling a person should have other favourite activities. It will be good if they will be related to sports, because sports positively affects the psyche, which from time to time suffers from gambling. Play gambling only on free money and in moderation and then you will not have problems!
