If you feel you can handle it just make sure to stay away from a pc/desktop or whatever you use to gamble. If you can control it make sure to find somethign else to do so you are too busy for gambling.
Try doing some training for yourself. For example, if a whole day passed and you didn't gamble even if you urge to, you get yourself a pizza or smth that you want. Like a little reward for your action. You can get other people involved with this reward, like your wife or some member of your family.
You can try doing punishment to yourself. This isn't a good punishment but this might get you to try to discipline yourself. Whenever you gamble, you wouldn't eat for 24hours. You can tell your wife to not give you food, lock the ref, etc. Once you get a little traumatized with this starvation thing, I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to have this punishment again. Thus, pushing yourself to not gamble.

Then you will end up dead of starvation by the time you realized that your cure of your addiction or maybe not!
I think punishment isn't really needed but although this is just way to extreme to do in my opinion because what you really need is some proper attention from a psychiatrist on what he/she think on your level of distress, and if you really need rehabilitation is his/her go signal!
Well, that was my point. Quit gambling or you'll die of hunger.
Yup! your opinion really is that deadly hehe well I respect your opinion and I am just saying my opinion to yours well as at least that is a great opinion, the only problem is you'll be dead in attaining your goals with it. and your right might as well quit in gambling in the first place!
If you are really addicted to gambling then you need a self discipline and a motivation on why you should get out of that addiction. Maybe you can start little by little. Many of us here already mention some of the ways and i think you can corporate some of it. It may help you a lot.
Gambling addiction is hard to treat, its a mental or emotional disease when there is no medicinal cure. It always start with the addicted gamblers on his acceptance that he really is addicted. I must say one can be easily addicted with gambling if he has let his emotions control his decision making.

if you ever get into the world of gambling then you will not be able to get out of it. gambling is to have an addiction, you will lose time and you will leave part of your family. gambling is risky.
you can simply stay away from gambling by searching for another habit. You are only gambling because you're
addicted to it just find another small habit its not that gambling is such a bad thing,
but you can lose allot of money with it so be careful.

To avoid it, he/she should focus on other things to be productive. Must know what the interest except gambling... Gamble can cause laziness. So sleeping is better than gambling... I would rather choose to sleep to refresh my mind and forget gambling...
That's not true, gambling won't make you lazy...besides, you will work more because of your loses...But true, you need to focus on new things, or get out of the house, look for a real life day job, it will keep you away from gambling when you are tired...

I was a lot addicted but at the same time I loved designing things, so I developed my skills more and easily got rid of gambling ( though I used to gamble small )
Congratulations to those of you who managed to control themselves. It is true that to shy away from something that started from intention and then perform the way it's been designed with consistent. Then gradually we will be spared from something that we did want to leave like gambling. Without a strong and consistent intent any plans will not succeed.
Yup! So long that he is not really addicted to gambling at all he can do it on his own without any further suggestions needed and I think that if a person is not really that addicted to gambling without a further help he need a will that can change his ideals!

It is not that easy to stay away from gambling because you will get easily addicted and that is quite bad because they chance to become poor because of gambling is really high.
So you have to realize it by yourself that gambling is bad to do and that you must know that gambling can waste all your money.

Yup! and partly in addiction towards it, you can really be a big problem towards your family and your society mostly because you can cause certain amounts of disrespect toward others because an addictive person or what they called compulsive gambling really can't stop there addiction on there own.
find things that are interesting and focus on that and you'll soon forget about gambling
It's hard to find new interesting things when you are already addicted to gambling...It will be much better if someone would introduce to you new things...But if you are just starting gambling and you were afraid of losing more money, then, you your self could find a way to escape...
you are now looking for something that you love others. example you like watching movies or sports. you can do it.
then you're going to focus on that and forget about gambling

yeah it's like when you forget a girl so you break up with your girlfrirend. of course if you want to forget quickly. you have to look for another woman. and you're going to focus on her
This is so you can forget about the woman once.
Which means to forget a gamble, he has to find another type of gamble? Is that what you mean? or atleast that's what your logic means as you're chasing the same thing either way

addiction to anything is not good as with that we do not care about our time and other duties of the day , we should have to give a specific time to all the activities of the day, and have to keep ourselves busy in different duties at different time according to a preplanned time-table.
