Quieting gambling can be easy for some people that are just addicted to it, but for the long term addicted its gonna be a lot more difficult to just stop with it.
I think you just have to speak with it about it with a relative because they can control you and have eyes on you, good luck!

Once you decide you stand on it,in some circumstance it is you to decide the right thing to do.Focus on things that interest you,things that you think its the best remedy to stop your addiction in gambling.We are responsible enough in every decision we make in our life,choose what is best for you.

The mind is indeed a major factor in stopping and leaving the gambling. Without the determination and disappearing in their minds certainly gambling their desire to stop and leave the gambling will be a mere dream. So indeed very thoughts affect anything we want

To most people, quitting gambling would be like killing themselves. Some people only do this because they "sort of" want to. Guess what, if you're only quitting gambling just because you feel so, then you're not gonna be able to quit it. Once you get this urge of gambling again after weeks, you'll get back into becoming gambling.

What you should do is focus all your energy into something else while you're trying to forget about gambling. After weeks of not gambling, and weeks of being busy into something, you'll become committed on that something and you wouldn't even be able to picture yourself gambling.

There should be a commitment if you really want to quit from gambling. A weak will to stay away from it will just be broken by some teasing advertisement you see here in the forum. And what others have already said, focusing on more productive things to do will help you get over of gambling. And if you can afford, professional help can do a lot.

To fight any addiction, you should always keep yourself occupied with something: your hobby, sports, socializing, work, books/movies/games, etc. When you are bored you are very vulnerable to addictions, so keep doing something all the time!
If you are already addicted in gambling it is really hard to quit even if you are doing something that is also great, cause if you say ADDICTION it is really what you really wanted to do or to have, but there are a percentage of addiction, some people cannot control themselves and some of us can control themselves, cause I think sometimes it is also depend of the result of their game in gambling. If their gambling stats are good then I guess there is a possibility to them to become more greediness that they will become addicted in to it.

For what just spend a money for nothing you get, in fact you can easily stop gambling if you want to stop it's just how you want.

Easy for you to say cause you haven't experience the fact of getting really addicted to gambling all you can do is mumble on what you see in it, but if you have experience it at hand you will know the hardship a person suffer when he becomes addicted with gambling there is no turning back from it and to regain back your true self again you will need assistance from a specialist of addiction.

That's right and I even want to say more because I know that to find a good specialist is not easy, most of them do nothing to help and just take your money. I know there are exceptions but I'm talking about most of them.

Any person is the best specialist for themselves IMO and since quitting gambling is nto an easy task you should engage in it only the best which is you. Only you if you decide so can quit gambling for good, most of those "specialists" just help to quit it for a period of time.
When it comes to psychologists to help deal with gambling, then I think it's a waste of not only time but also money. First of all people must have the willpower to quit this habit or hobby.

it is a best question for those people who have bulk amount of btc .
it is true that in starting there is always a fun but at last there is totally loss of money .
i think to quit or exit from the gambling the best way is wait for the loss of all money then finally you will comes to know about real loss of your time and money ( btc )
Losing all the money/bitcoins will be really hard, i've have had that experience when i'd lost all my coins(i had ~4 bitcoins) back in 2013. since then i try to gamble less.

Quitting gambling for good is very very difficult, especially if you're not really committed. Keep yourself busy and when you find yourself thinking about gambling, Don't.Stop yourself. You have to remember that you can't and won't gamble. Also, educate yourself, because it's a real problem and an addiction, you need to learn about ways on how to get over this. https://healdove.com/mental-health/Gambling-Addiction10-Ways-To-Stop-Gambling-Before-It-Is-Too-Late

Maybe many ways how to quit gambling for good. Like first thing block some of gambling sites on your router and in this you cannot visit those sites anymore until you unblock it. And then be mindful of things that will help you earn, don't focus on fast earnings this will lead you to gamble your money.


This requires strong will and honesty... It won't be effective if you are the one who block the sites, as there is a tendency that you will visit it again as you know how to unblock it.. Also, there are times that you would consider as "cheat days" which you let your self visit a gambling site, I think that would lead you back to gambling.. The most effective way is your second sentence, avoid thinking about how much you could earn fast with gambling...  Smiley

It's going to be hard especially for someone who's already addicted to gambling to put a halt to it permanently. I think first thing to do is to avoid people associated with gambling. Try to socialize more with non-gambling peers. Then try other hobbies that are non gambling related. It starts with a few simple steps but eventually with the help of friends, one can actually quit

It is true but no matter how hard it is if you really desire to stop it , you can stop it.  You will seek tools and other peoples help to get rid of  your gambling addiction.  Psychiatrist is a way to go for advice and other procedure.  This will help you at least to make it easier for your withdrawal procedure.

I think the best is to replace it with something else you will enjoy. Something that involves risk too but not as bad. Otherwise you will just go back to your old ways of gambling half your money away. A new hobby will provide great distraction.
No i don't think that's can work, replace with something maybe work for a while but when you get bored with that new one you will back to gamble again.
I don't think so, cause for me, other hobby to avoid gambling is one of the best way for us to quit in gambling, there are so many things to do, not even one but more kind of things to do, but if that person really loves to risk, I suggest to invest than to gamble, cause for me, investing in a long run can be more profitable than to gamble.

this practice will help gambling addicts to stay away from doing gambling making yourself busy would be the right way to avoid playing back again, it is important that you can look for something that also will allowed you to use more of your time to forget your lust to gamble, self control is built in on us so quitting is not hard if you have the will  doing it.

This post is one of the best way to fight addiction, be occupied by something in your mind and not only the one you used to be. Engage something that will change your perspective in life and change the way what you are now. So remember fellas, when you gamble, "Gamble Moderately" Grin.

addiction really comes from a habit. If you will start a new habit for quite a long time, then the old gambling addiction will be replaced by the new habit - just make it sure that the new habit is more productive and healthy.

That would be the goal (becoming healthy and productive) if we want to get rid of a bad addiction.
