I think it a bit ridiculous... There is no reason to spend all your money in one thing that makes you lose money.

If you aren't making profit, just go away, don't play anymore. If you can't do this simple thing, sorry,
but you are a weak person and should look for special treatment, like a psychiatrist.
Going to a Psychiatrist does not guarantee that you will stop Gambling, but it is the best solution together with Rehab also having time with your family can actually make you feel better. And also keep your mind distracted away from gambling to prevent you to even think about gambling, as your mind is only tempting you to do gambling again.

It's easy to say just stop gambling, but if you can't stop, you can try what i do. Set a limit to how much money you can spend each week on gambling and stick to it. It helps me keep from spending too much.

You can't control your greediness since it is in nature of human beings and that is main obstacle of staying away from gambling. If you are used to gamble with Bitcoin then you are lucky and can stay away more easily than typical gambler. All you need to do is not to keep Bitcoin in your possession or immediate access this will be helpful for sure.
gambling online using bitcoin even much more harder to stay away as you provided an easy access anytime and anywhere to gamble just to touch your smartphone and you are sit on the casino table. technology sometimes become a boomerang , you need to be more careful use them . it's more easier when you able to stay away from internet then you would stay away from gambling too.
The revolution in communication technology has allowed us to have anything in the tips of our fingers, for better or worse, so today self-control is more important than ever.
You are right when someone is addicted like I am a bit addicted then we feel that there's nothing better than gambling and even the pocket money children get they spend in lottery in the hope of winning much more. I have children near my house who often gamble their money, and well when I am myself addicted I can't say anything to them.

I think if you are addicted already on gambling it is hard to control it we can not say that you can control your self to gamble..
I think like other said find a new hobby that you know you can be addicted and forgot gambling.. like you play dota 2 or league of legends it can be help to forgot gambling and play dota2 as his new addiction game. .
Changing one addiction for another is not the right course of action even if the new addiction is less damaging at the end you will end up paying the consequences of your actions.

I think that is a good way of course just choose those good things that will make help you to stay away from gambling. Just like making yourself addicted with recreational activities and sports surely it is a good way to forget gambling. But it will make you addicted also but in a good way not that the old way it does.
I think we will have to agree to disagree, in my opinion not a single addiction is good for you even if you get addicted to something that you may think as a healthy activity, for example someone may get addicted to workout but by working so hard on it it may end up damaging his body by so much exercise.

Only those rich and big timers can make gambling as their passion. ~snip~
That's not true at all. Every one can gambling and that makes it possible for everyone to make gambling as his passion. You can always bet small amounts of money so you can stay in the casino longer. You can even do practice gaming in gambling sites. Most of the gambling players are actually those people that aren't rich in real life and the rich people usually are busy in their business. Most rich people don't have time to waste on gambling.

Only those rich and big timers can make gambling as their passion. It would be easy to stay away from gambling if you will think that you can not even win so better to keep your money and spend it for important things that you really needed.

True. If you're afraid to lose some of your money in gambling then stay away from it. Just invest your money in other business or opportunities which you think can be more profitable for you especially for your future.

Staying away from gambling is never easy especially when you are addicted to it. You will need a lot of self determination and motivation to fight of any addictions. I don't suggest you to replace gambling addiction with any other additions such as spending hours playing DOTA or other games. The best thing is to do something that would add value to your life, to your family and to the society. That can be like getting a job or working for the good of the society or anything of that kind.

I am sure everyone was not born to make gambling as our passion, before you came in to gambling you have something or an activity that really interest you therefore you should focus on that activity and leave gambling for good. You cannot win in gambling if you are addicted and that is for sure.

Chasing loses is not a really good idea when you are lose big then much better if you are not going to play and pushed to hard to just earn too much and win the profit again although yes it is easy to win but it easy to lose either if you are going to check don't idolize those veteran gambling that can really earn good profit.
But if you will not chase your losses you will simply loose more and more, I mean if you will not chase your losses then actually you have no motive and gambling without a motive would lead you nowhere.
If you have goal like I will dig up 0.1 from my loss and then stop, maybe that can help and also will make you less addictive, I think this way you can quit gambling too soon if you achieve your aims.

I agree, that chasing some goals are better than trying to recover complete loss because that's not possible at once and if you gamble with higher amounts just to get it back in one go, then chances are you may even lose that and that would be a double loss just to recover your single loss.
I think having goals in gambling is also one way to become addicted in gambling, if you just play gambling without any aiming that you will gonna win, I think this will not make you addicted in gambling because for me one you wanted to win in gambling without any assurance that you will gonna win I think this is also one way to become addicted to it.
You cannot be addicted if you treat business like a business, it's okay to have goals as at least you have something that will inspire you but make sure your method is very relevant and always follow it based on the right way to do it.

the problem is many people is not realize about this, they just keep playing gambling in all day and don't think that this can make their going to loss their money for quickly and they never learn from it. there is only few people that realize if they should not be addicted in gambling business so they still keep the money for another thing.

That is making them wrong about gambling and because they are aiming to claim again their losses it tends that will keep on gambling because of it. But in reality, they will just keep on losing if they will not stop. So the first thing that they need to admit first that gambling is not really for them and they are unfortunate with it and after realizing they should do something else so that they can easily forget their losses.

That list could help addicts in gambling... There's a lot of activity that we can do to avoid gambling. For me, we should be productive so we can always make the important things first before spending the spare time. I agree that only ourselves can help our own from addiction in the first place.

I agree that the way you look at gambling will affect how you deal with it. Sometimes, losing is a very good reason to stay away. Experience will teach you a lot of things and experiencing losing money would be more than enough reason for some to veer away from gambling for good
It is true that no one can help you us get away from a addiction than ourself.
For example when you google, you find these,

Take a short break.
Find a replacement activity.
Remember how bad it feels to lose.
Educate yourself about gambling addiction.
Find self-help materials.
Find a support group.
Hand over control of your money.
List the cons of gambling and the pros of quitting.


but really none of them will work unless you really want to quit and have made up your mind.

if seen, most Answer here is "find a new hobby that can take a lot of your time". And I think that is the best way to stay away of gambling. Because if you've got a hobby that takes a lot of your time, you're not going to have time to gamble and little by little away.

Exactly, because anyone want to left the gambling, so better for them should chance the way of our routine life, also change our mode because we have decided to stay away from gambling, and gambling is a game and we always play it only when we want to spend our extra time and find enjoyment but our greedy take us in a wrong way, that's why we want to stay away, Otherwise everyone know that gambling is pure game for give us entertainment.

In anything we do, just like in gambling, and do it regularly, it will become a habit and once that habit is formed, we will be having a hard time in getting away with it unless we form a new habit in replace to gambling habits of ours. It could be gong to gym or learning new skills - anything that will just replace it is a good start.

Those new activities should be outdoor activities instead of related to online things then one can come out of this gambling habit in a faster way. Try to spend more time with your friends outside or spend more time with a family member and stop talking about gambling. Slowly you will surely come out of this habit.
