Many times in the past but the more I wanted to stop the more I fall in love with gambling.

Actually, gambling is not bad, what's worse is when you become an indiscipline gambler, it's okay to make mistakes at the beginning but if we keep making the same mistakes over and over, then although gambling is fun, this is not for you because it's very risky for indiscipline gamblers.

A good example of indisciplined gamblers is those gamblers who went bankrupt, sell their properties, and end up living on the street. We don't want this to happen to us, so we have to gamble with caution as it's a risky kind of entertainment for some people.

Bad thing or not, it depends on the perspective of how one defines it. and what makes gamblers worse is not because of problems because they are not disciplined. however, more on responsibility. if a gambler does not have a good understanding of gambling, then most of them will become part of the addict.

As we all agree, gambling is a part of pleasurable entertainment. but closely related to risk, and the effects of gambling itself. Gambling without good control can lead to addiction. also, potentially losing our valuable possessions. that is why it is very important for gamblers to have a good understanding of what gambling is, as well as the importance of being responsible. that way, we as gamblers will have pretty good control. also, to avoid the effects of addiction. and the most important thing to remember is, gamble with limits that we can afford to lose.

I believe I am very in control of my habits so I have nothing to be afraid of, for now.
I only gamble in a very casual way, so it is nothing I do in an impulsive way and whenever I reach my loss threshold I give up and log out my account. I simply accept I do not have any luck left.

I believe it is better that way to me, since I like to save money as well.
If you are not addicted to gambling, then you will find it very easy to quit if you wan't to, but addicted gambler's always find it very difficult to quit, the most funniest part is that must addicted gamblers don't really believe they are addicted, whenever you tell them about their gambling addiction, they are always denying and they believe they can stop gambling whenever they want. Just few among them believe they are addicted and they are finding it very difficult to stop. If you want to start gambling, just gamble for fun, don't gamble because you want to make money from gambling, if you do that you will endup being addicted.

If you can control gambling by your own strategy then it is good for you and you will get rid of deep gambling addiction. And if you can get rid of the deep addiction of gambling then you will be able to use it only as a place of entertainment and you will be able to use it as a golden place to relieve your tiredness and pain from time to time. I myself gamble but it is very limited and I keep a fixed budget for each week to enjoy enough entertainment but not to become deeply addicted.
But not all people are the same as us and can control our emotions; there are gamblers who have difficulty controlling their emotions, which results in addictions. That is why others tend to seek help or take some medicines just to make themselves calm. It is like us, we don't have anxiety, and others do, which they always advise them not to think of, but it is difficult. That is why there are experts on it to help them, but the problem is that a lot of addicted people won't do it because they don't recognize themselves as addicted to it.
Addiction and psychological help for it is something very important, because it gives people a chance to actually work on things that they can fix, and there is a tangible problem there. Psychological help without much concrete problem is hard to diagnose and fix, you can go to therapy for years and not really fix anything, but when you have something shining as much as gambling addiction, there are ways to stop that or at least road you can take, it is up to if you will take it or not.

I believe that we shouldn't be really shocked about the amount of people who fail to stop, or fail to get better but at least we know there is a path to be taken to get better.

These stories happen to people who not only gamble, but also run their own businesses. A wrong attitude to money or mistakes lead to the fact that a person loses absolutely everything. In my opinion, to prevent this from happening it is necessary to reduce risks in every possible way. I am not a professional in business management so I cannot help in this case but I know how to reduce risks in gambling which is to play gambling only with money which you do not feel sorry for, to limit yourself and not to try to win back your past losses.

There is something that sounds harsh, but it is very accurate, a person learns more when they lose, I remember that in 2017 when I started learning about casinos, where I always played was at freebitco.in, and it was a great job for me to keep an eye on from the faucet, play a little and try to multiply the sats.

One occasion I managed to raise good money and I began to risk with the multiplier, I used all kinds of strategies, even the most daring ones, which was the martingale, but I lost control and lost absolutely everything, the truth is that I was bad for two days, I did not want to play more, but after thinking about it so much I realized that it was all my mistake for betting too much without control, and I started to change my strategy to play, but I did think at that moment about leaving the casino and never coming back.

I haven't tried to stop but because it's not a problem for me. I play little, with low amounts, being aware that the odds are against me, and always with money I can afford to lose. I take it as an entertainment expense, with the difference that from time to time I come out with more money than I put in.

So, I don't have to set out to stop, and in fact, there are seasons when I don't gamble, simply because I don't feel like it or because I'm busy and don't even think about it.

This is me. I don't gamble like my life depends on it. I stake low amount that don't affect me if I lose. I've gone on a gambling break once or twice but it wasn't because I was gambling too much or because I was getting addicted, maybe it was because I was too busy at that period and I didn't have time to predict games or place bet.
I know how dangerous it is to be addicted and I think you get addicted when you believe you are one step away from becoming a millionaire through gambling .

Experience is the best teacher but it's not the only teacher, I've seen what a gambling addiction does to people so it's best I don't experience it.

I've never had such an issue that would make me wish I totally stop gambling, but I've had reasons to stop certain kinds of gambling. This is personal, and the ones I had stopped have been effectively stopped by me, so there are no issues in their regard. I am a careful person that sees gambling as a way of making some fun, and if a little money comes out of it, fine.

I will never be a desperado in that field. Such are the ones that will always be regretting and wish they leave gambling.

If someone wins, he might also think about stopping gambling. Take a big hit, win a lot of money and then quit. But if you lose, different thoughts can come through a player. They may want to stop, but others want to continue gambling in order to regain lost losses. That rarely goes well, of course. Quitting gambling is a good intention in itself, but often little comes of it. And if players then stop gambling, it will be for a fairly short period of time and after a while they will still gamble again, often with much larger amounts. We can all do the consequences and outcome.

That is why it is said that those who can control gambling can completely escape its negative effects. They gambling also have relatively more winnings than an addicted gambler. They can only think of gambling from a place of entertainment. They don't even try to recover their lost money so they can truly enjoy gambling. Until a gambler is able to overcome their addiction, they cannot enjoy the excitement of gambling.

If gambling gets to a point that you have had enough of it and want to stop, then clearly there is a problem here... maybe gambling addiction or debt problems as a result of gambling !
But I believe the trick to not getting to this problem is developing self control over your gambling pleasures and not allowing greed to get to you and you should be safe. Let's have fun with gambling.
Everything's too much is bad and it doesn't matter whether you are dealing with gambling or any other things in life which does really need up that control to make things alright because having no control
would really lead you up into lots of mistakes which is something that you dont really want to happen.WHen dealing with gambling then you should really be aware about your finances.Dont make yourself
stop when you dont already have the money on your pocket.Make it sure that you are spending the amount which you can afford to lose and would be able to stop mid way if you wanted to.
In my case i hadnt been able to reach out into a point on which i do have that financial problem since i could stop mid way on the time that i do see that im losing that much.

When you consider how much money you have already lost to gambling, it is not as simple as that to quit gambling. I have a friend that is so addicted to gambling that you wonder if his life is dependent on it. He can't go a single week without gambling. When asked why his gambling addiction is like that. His answer will be he wants to recover all the money gambling has taken from him back. That's the only he can think of putting a stop to his gambling additions. Now knowing that the more he bets to win back, the harder for him to recover back

Glad that you know how to control yourself,  you know when to gamble and when to stop if needed.
There are lots of gamblers who can't stop themselves whenever they are either winning or losing money. When they win, they will continue until they lose all of their money. When they lose, they will find a way to get some money and ending up losing more money most of the time.

As for me, I don't need to stop gambling because I can stop whenever I need to. I mean I'm not greedy enough to get my losses especially when I know that it's time to stop already. Winning in gambling for me isn't all about luck, but there's a bit of attitude that's needed in order for the gambler to win big time. It's useless if you're lucky, but you don't know when to stop (lack of self-control).

I wish gamblers will learn when to stop when needed.

Gambling has become an everyday thing for some people and this act has lead to serious addiction which is not good. When gambling we should understand that we are just playing for fun. Most people i know around always take gambling as a very serious issue and i have this particular friend that always complains to me how he has stopped gambling but from no where you still see him gambling again. Me myself am a sesonal gambler and i only gamble on the sport i know which is soccer, i think exploration of new gambling games you are familiar with also causes this repeated feeling of always quitting gambling. I just want to know if this phrase is common among everyone or its just he catch phrase whenever you experiences a big loss.
When a gambler constantly loses in his gambling he suffers from depression. At that time sometimes he can express his frustration through these words. Another thing is that when a gambler regains consciousness after losing everything due to addiction, he can still use such words. However, people who use such words often become active again after taking a few days break from gambling. This is a common term and I think those who have been involved in gambling for a long time are very familiar with this words. But for those who really take gambling as fun or entertainment, normally the words loss and Stop are not heard.
I know how disapointing and irrating it is to come up short, and I've been there. I know what it's like to feel like the odds are stacked against you and desire nothing more than to try your luck at a casino. However, gamblers should keep in mind that they shoud never let their guard down. Feeling helpless is a signal that we need to take a step back and reevaluate our posision.

What you're saying about taking breaks from gambling is very important, and I aplaud you for bringing it up. It's easy to lose sight of long-term repercussions when you're immersed in the excitement of the present. A change of pace and some distraction might help us regain objectivity and persepctive before returning to our gaming.

From my experience in playing gambling, I have tried several times to stop gambling, but it seems difficult for me, who is already addicted to gambling, to really stop.
I felt the unintended effect of losing most of what I had to gambling and I regret it a little.
Even though I have at least been able to get back what I have lost, there is still a feeling of regret in me because until now I still continue to play and bet.
But to be honest, I already have a little sense of self-control and control every game or bet I make so that I can minimize the number of losing a lot of money.
For now I only use 15% -20% of my income every month to gamble, so I have started not to lose much in gambling.
as long as you consistently set aside your funds for gambling every month, of course it will not make you lose in gambling because by being consistent like that you have managed to control yourself from more losses, play wisely  Wink
Yes, and I have done that in the last few weeks, maybe I can control myself so that I no longer lose large amounts of money, but to really stop gambling will be more difficult for me to do.
In fact I'm sure 95% of gamblers who are addicted will not be able to easily stop completely.
For me or some gamblers, gambling is considered entertainment and a place to seek pleasure and profit, so that we will always think about gambling and always want to play games or bets every day.
Hopefully the method that I do can be emulated by those who want to control themselves in gambling so they don't lose a lot of money when playing or betting.

Only having intention and admitting we have made a mistake can stop us from gambling. And accompanied by increasing maturity, we can understand that everything requires responsibility, especially gambling, so we will not become addicted. And if we have experienced addiction before, with everyone's help, we can cure it properly and even leave gambling for good. It will be better if someone accompanies us while we are healing ourselves from gambling addiction and they continue to encourage us to let go and leave gambling.

This is just part of my past, then I was very young. as far as I can remember, there were only a few fiat online casinos and one of the most popular was PokerStar, Sbobet. throughout my experience, to stop completely from activities that have become a habit is something that is very complicated and difficult to do, believe me. However you have the intention to quit, if it is not accompanied by strong determination and the desire to break free from addiction it will not work.

To be honest, I like the hobby of gambling. this makes me a little entertained in the middle of the saturation of the activities of the work routine.  but now it's different, as I get older, I have more responsibility, a good understanding of how I define gambling itself.  I still gamble, but not blindly. just being part of the fun of entertainment, with the money i had budgeted and could afford to lose.
I also have experienced this before and agree with you that it is difficult to quit the activities we are already involved in completely. Even now, I still can't quit gambling completely. But lucky that I can try to reduce the time I play gambling so it's not the same as in the past. I realized that gambling too much would only be bad for me and before it was too late, I had to be able to stop it. At the very least, reducing the time I play gambling if I still can't stop playing gambling.

Gambling can entertain us, especially when experiencing saturation with our daily activities. But we also must remember that playing gambling must be accompanied by properly limiting ourselves so that nothing bad will happen to us. And we also should not exceed the limit we set so we do not run out of money.
