What to do is never think gambling as a way to make money, even you think there's a possibility, just think it's impossible and force yourself to look into other opportunity.

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

"Always get engaged", humans aren't robots, I really doubt you're always get engaged with works, anyone always need entertainment to recover from stress.

Wife are less likely to end up become an addict, they're more likely cheat with other people. For husband, they're forced to work and make money as much as possible, this is why many men fall into gambling addict.

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.

These two reasons alone are enough to cause major problems in life.... however, they can be avoided if, from the start, we educate ourselves about gambling addiction. We always hear the phrase like “gamble what you can afford to lose,” which is the foundation of responsible gambling. However, if we don’t actually apply that, we’re already on the wrong path.

What usually happens is that people learn the hard way, after they’ve made costly mistakes. Some manage to learn from it, but others lose so much that it damages family relationships or even results in losing their jobs. It’s important to stay aware and prevent addiction before it takes a toll.

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?
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.

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
Get an allocation of funds to gamble^{1. I mentioned this on my other topic created before}, when the funds are exhausted do not use any other funds to gamble till the months ends
Do not budget of hitting millions or billions through gambling, just be positive and gamble with expectations to hit anyone it could be higher or lesser.
Give much priority to your work and field of study than gambling

This is the only way we can control addiction by regular releasing post like this for people to learn and make their corrections. You can add your let the discussion continue.
