Recovering from gambling addiction is not easy as you think but it is still possible,the first stage in recovery of gambling addiction is need to understand that are losing their life from the betting so they need to get out from that then they need to seek help from the doctors to get our from addiction.But prevention is always better than cure so we need to understand that gambling before starting it that is is not a job or money earning business.

Quitting on gambling was so difficult to do specially when you are already addicted to it but if determination and willingness to change will go together also by the help of your love ones there is nothing impossible.

Don't lose hope man! If others can do it then you can also, divert your attention spend more time to your friends and family who don't gamble and remind your self all the time why you need to quit gambling. It's going to be hard but you will get thru it as long as you are determined to do it.

First of all you have to start with the determination and will, it’s the main strength and foundation inorder to start and stand to finish. Quitting is not easy when you were addicted already in gambling,that is why tighten your belt to survive and surpass the call and temptation to gamble gamble again so that you can successfully leave gambling forever.

in this case I am very difficult to leave the gambling, maybe by changing the environment and my association hope I can forget gambling

Moving to an area where there is no gambling element for a while is a good way for me to get an addict to recover. Sometimes to quit the habits we've been doing for a long time, we have to find new environments that are much different from where we lived before.

I agree with you my friend that If one wants to quit gambling forever, he can definitely make it happen because nothing is impossible in this world. I know that it will be a little bit more difficult for him to quit gambling suddenly because it is very difficult to change the mindset of gambler but it can changed after proper treatment. He would have to go to psychiatrist and take proper session and will be able to quit it in the later part of his life.

The will is coming from us, if we want to quit, I am sure we can make it happen.
Quitting is really hard but it's possible to do, we should only look straight forward and accept the reality that we need to change to make our life better.

we must be busy working, and must always have busy. if not working, may be looking for other activities such as doing a hobby. remember, gambling is only for lazy people.

I don't think they will leave just because they don't have the money because others will find ways to get money and use it for gambling instead of putting in good news. The only way for them to stop is for them to realize that gambling will bring to good in their life.

I think I agree with every single fact that you have discussed in your comment because gamblers can’t leave gambling if they wouldn’t find anything more fruitful to them rather than gambling like you said. Also, one more thing that I can think off for which I think gambler will leave the gambling is the financial crisis on him because when he would be having no money to play, he will automatically leave it.

Quitting gambling is not easy but if we urge our self to leave then there is nothing impossible, there are good reason to leave gambling and one thing is for our family and love ones, think that gambling consumes a lot of time that steals us from our family and the money that we have lost instead it can help a lot for the benefits of our children for their daily needs.

To quit gambling is like a death to the gambling addict because they cannot live without gambling as they have made it as a source of income. they only possible way that the gambler can adopt to leave his gambling is to find something more interesting for himself other than gambling. If he can’t find something more interesting than gambling, then he will continue with gambling for the rest of his life.

Addiction is the hindrance to success, once we are addicted, expect that our journey will end very soon because we will be aggressive
without properly thinking our bets. Control is very important, and we have to be realistic as well so we can accept our loses anytime.

I think once the person becomes addict to gambling, there is nothing left for him in this world which is more interesting to him than gambling because he is earning money from gambling and there is no such other activity as much easy as gambling is and from where the gambler can easily earn money with putting much efforts, so he decides to go for gambling and to end up like this.

if you really want to stop gambling it must have a strong belief from within you because it will be difficult if it becomes an addiction and should be supported also from the family.

I have a friend which is addicting in gambling before. he tells me that when he becomes a gambler, he always spend his money and he is a lucky person because his parents are the richest person in my town. so he doesn't have a problem to spend the money until he became an addicting person in gambling. suddenly his behavior is known by his parents and he's been asked by his parents to stop or continue for playing gambler. he said that he wants to stop from the gambling and he asks his parents to help him.

so, the next thing that his parents did is creating a business for their son, give a heavy task to complete in every day and don't let him get a free time except for eating and for sleep. and my friend can do every task even the difficult task he can complete. and after one month he runs the business, he came to me and tells me that his mind stops to thinking about gambling and his mind is attract to complete one by one the task that comes into his business.

I think it's a good story from my friend although not every people that have a better life but at least we can learn something on here which is we can build or create new things that will prevent us to thinking about gambling in every time. so we can do that new thing without a problem and if we can do this for a month, then we can evaluate about what we did so we know how good the progress for our life.

For some it is very simple as they only gamble for entertainment . So it is not frequently they gamble but on the other hand when people who gamble for money will loose out the money regularly as those would be addicted gamblers and longer they play more they will keep losing money. No motivation might help such people.

Yes it is not easy to forget the gambling if you already play and live with ot for a long term. But I still believe that if you have the drive to achieve something you can change it and became a better person.
Every person has its chance to change everything its just a matter of choice.
And if someone will help you and motivate you to choose the right way, a life without any bad habits for sure you can do it. Or you may ask your family members to help you to divert your attention in order to forget gambling.

Always have faith in God that you can do it because with Him nothing is impossible.

In my point of view, diverting to something  will help you to a lot quit gambling. Based on my experience  but not as a gambler but a dancer, I divert my attention into reading wattpads or anything  that has no related to dancing.

If you really want to quit on something  there is always a way that you can do it. Just always remind your self that you cannot  do it.
