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.
There's a saying about being a gambler, stays to someone's blood until he or she fully changed. We find something in gambling that makes us happy and even if we're losing, it doesn't matter. As long as we're satisfied and our cravings to gamble has been given, that's the only thing that we want to see. And to answer the question about how many times did I attempted to quit, well, they were like tons of times and I can't count them. Whenever I lose, I'll tell that I quit but tomorrow I'll be back so I'm sure that something like happens to all of us.
I guess that’s the spirit of gambling to keep our excitement and stay enthusiastic despite of the losses we endure at the end of the day. That’s the reason why gambling should be a good source of entertainment rather than to see it as another source of income. And yes, I have promised a lot of times to finally quit from gambling but look at me now, still gambling with the amount I can afford to lose. And for me that’s never an issue, as long as I’m still responsible of my losses and I still manage myself not to fall for deep addiction in gambling.

once , yes just once because the next time? i felt stupid wanting but cannot do it literally instead I only spend my time thinking about it.

and for those who had encountered the same> better to just let yourself gambling but with reason to stop whenever you wanted and that is a what we called self control and will not becoming addicted.
It is important to be very careful when it comes to our gambling, if someone makes the decision to stop and they fail this could create in them the idea that they cannot stop gambling no matter how hard to try, and this is a very dangerous belief as if they develop a gambling problem then it will be very difficult to overcome it, it is better to set very strict limits regarding the amount of money we will use when we gamble, that way if we respect those limits then there is no need to ever think about stopping as everything is under our control.

This is called consoling yourself. We can use the statement we need to use gambling for fun or as an entertainment same as that we spend on a movie or outing. In reality it is really hard for a layman, maybe the rich is able to allocate and do things in an organised without being hurt. According to me, even if we play for fun it hurts when we're on the losing streak.
It depends on what the initial goal is when you want to do gambling. If only as entertainment, anyone can do it without getting hurt when experiencing fatigue. What is important is that the allocation of funds is clear and not too large just for gambling and will not increase the allocation anymore.

Gambling that is only done for entertainment will not be done too often, maybe only a few times or when entertainment is needed. If done frequently it is the same as an addiction to gambling but camouflaged with reasons for entertainment.

When you are addicted, it will be difficult to stop gambling. so you need a strong desire to be able to stop and have alternative activities so you can be free from any gambling activity.

Quitting gambling may not be easy, but with the right commitment and support, you can overcome this problem and start a healthier and happier life.

There are several types of addictions, some that are really bad for our health and others that can even do good if they are well "managed".

Illicit drugs and cigarettes are examples of addictions that are harmful and need to be completely stopped.
Gambling, on the other hand, can be good for our mental health if managed prudently, and I think it shouldn't be completely eliminated from an addict's life because it could bring about a lot more "relapses".

It is better for the person to educate himself, to set limits on time and money spent, so that "abstention" is not his worst enemy.

Since I am not an addict, I can decided to stop gambling anytime I like. That would not be a problem for me and for a while now u have not bet get some odds to bet on because I can easily control my feeling and urge to gamble. Gambling should not be something that will reap us of our decision. It shouldn't make us to do what we don't intend to do.
We need to have self control and be able to make proper decision at any time of our life. Gambling is good but not able to control ourselves is bad

It's pretty common for those gamblers who lose a lot. I am sure that most of us hear this coming from a gambler who has intense emotions due to losses and is complaining to the casino that it is not fair, but after the emotions calm down, you see him again depositing money, and after winning some games, he wouldn't be saying anything. Though mostly the reason for this is that they are just addicted or they just can't quit due to their need to earn money.

Gambling is an addiction and anyone who's caught in this addiction will alway submit to the urge to gamble whenever it comes. It doesn't matter if you want to stop or not. Infact in most cases, whenever you want to stop that's when the urge to gamble increases. Gambling addiction has to be treated as a drug addiction and the withdrawal method should be used for anyone with this problem.

I have seen people struggle to quick gambling to no avail, while others who has quit for sometime quickly become an addict Immediately they run out of money. One reason people fall back to gambling after quitting is because they didn't replace their gambling addiction with another activity that'll take their mind off gambling.

Thinking to quit will always came up to us when we are losing to much money on the game and decisions like that always made when we are dismayed or even pissed off to consecutive losses we encounter and to avoid this to happen maybe we should start to not expect anything about it just have fun then always use the money we can afford to lose since. For sure once we came out not expecting anything we can enjoy gambling and eliminate those any regrets that came out after we play the game.

Gambling addiction is a serious issue. Even if we are not gambling addicts but we are in gambling activities, we are also too difficult to stop gambling, even if tried several times, gambling will be much more interesting and attract us to join again. Moreover, people who are addicted to gambling, this is a serious issue that sometimes they are driven to all in until they have nothing, get big loans, and do crimes. Although not all addicted people to gambling do these, some of them are doing so. This will depend on the personality, but with the fact, it is really clear that gambling addiction without any good management and treatment will always be worse day to day. For me and for several people, maybe we need not only once or twice to stop gambling, but we will also need several times because there are desires, big eager to always do gambling moreover it's really enticing. many people will have high expectations to earn money and have much money from gambling so that they try and try again. But in fact, gambling is not kind of worth moreover without any good knowledge, moreover in slots.

Gambling was never a problem for me. I rarely gamble. But yeah, I have seen people to stop gambling, but they end gambling again after few days or weeks. Those are the kind of people that are addicted to gambling and in the long causes themselves irreversible financial damage. It's like people trying to quit drinking or smoking. They do stop for few days and then once again is back to drinking and smoking and doing drugs. The only way these people can get out the addiction and stop gambling is getting professional help. They need to talk to someone and take their to recover from gambling addiction.

Total stop I never have but reduce or stop playing a game to go a different direction, I have many times.  Mostly boredom determines whether I bet or not, if its not interesting dont kid yourself about making money on it.  The money part is the bonus,  I only intend to play things I feel some interest in and typically I get bored after some period so stopping isnt the problem its finding something I like more Smiley

Addicted gamblers can not stop gambling because gambling is just like inbuild in them. So for them to go away with gambling is a thug of war in their life just like smokers. They can't leave it. The real gamblers use the loss games to predict the future games in a tactical way. Gamblers are liable to loss all coin but they won't heard. Because it entered into their blood.
They can stop but momentarily or on the time that they dont have money to spend on with their gambling addiction.On the time that they had replenish out their wallets or pockets then they would be playing once again.We do know that addicted gamblers are those people who cant just resist on playing gambling as long they do have the funds.They would be definitely doing as much as they can
and as long they do have the money.In my case, i could easily stop mid way if ever my mind telling me on doing so.

To someone who has been making a good profit from gambling, gambling is always a cool business but to others who have encountered multiple losses in gambling, they only get stocked with the addition hoping that they can get lucky and they will win big that day. Back to the topic and using myself as an example, the only time I tried to stop gambling was when I lost in a soccer bet I was hoping to win big due to the high amount I staked but I find myself gambling because that is the only way I can win back my money so I can only think of quitting gambling when I lose in my bet.

Once and I've succeeded at that. One time in my life I've gambled away more that I could lose. It was early on when I had some spare money because bitcoin was pumping. It was in 2016 or early 2017. If I held on to that money instead of gambling with it I'd be able to gain at least x6 by the end of 2017. That's when I turned my habit into casual gambling and I've never lost big since that day.
I have everything under control now. No dicing, no big deposits, casual sports gambling not more than once a month.

how many times have you intended to stop gambling

Every time I lose I think I should stop gambling. Whenever a person loses in a game of gambling, it is evident in his mind that he will stop gambling. I myself am not addicted to this kind of gambling, but I have indulged in gambling once or twice in my life. Gambling is one of those addictions where one cannot recover from the addiction once he gets into it. I have seen people addicted to this drug never progress in life. They are making a living very hard. Gambling addicts around us lead very bad lives. So I would like to say that you should never take gambling as a serious addiction. Just take it as fun.

Personally, my addiction is not on the point that I should intentionally "stop it" since I can practice its discipline and self-control from the very start.

People who struggle in eliminating and stopping gambling are the ones who are addicted to it to the point that it is destructive to their livelihood. Though that may be the case, they are at least on the first step towards curing their addiction- which is acknowledging that they are indeed addicted to it.

In order to fully eliminate such addiction, sacrifices must be made and sheer amount of patience must be exercised by the person. Not to mention, an active participation of their peers and friends may significantly help and speeding up the process of curing it.

^I am also a seasonal gambler now not like before when I was fully addicted to playing poker but no I want to bet only in sports betting.
I remember before when I have a huge loss playing poker and I said to myself to stop and never gamble, this attempt has probably happened twice every time when I have a huge loss but after a few months, I still miss gambling. Thinking to quit gambling after a huge loss will probably be a natural reaction in most gamblers but I know deep inside they will never let themselves come up with such a decision. So gamble only what you can afford and enjoy gambling because that is for fun.
