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 )
You are doing the right thing, you focus yourself in you other hubbies.If you can keep up doing it, you will be successful in staying away from gambling. This is for those people who are weak in gambling which can easily be dictated by their emotions while doing gambling. Good gamblers are those who only treat it as for fun.

hi

i am getting addicted to gambling.And i am loosing a lot of money.I am loosing what i can't afford to lose.its sad that when you start loosing its just busted me again and again.at last i gamble for fun but now when i am getting addicted i am loosing too much.

Any suggestions are welcome  Smiley

Regards
Honestly i never feel addicted to gambling,and dont know how the feel if we dont playing gamblign in one day,is just like drugs addiction? Grin
but i think people can stop playing gambling when they really brooke and dont have any friends to loan bitcoin.
It's worse than drug addiction cause it will bring big damages into your life. If you are consistently losing on gambling if might lead you to bankruptcy which really hard to imagine that we just lost our hard earned money for years in just a blink of an eye. Really hard.

If you do not have money, I'm sure you will stay away from gambling. But the best option to stay away is find another activity or control yourself and dont open/visit the gambling site.

If someone is addicted to gambling he/she will probably lend money and continue gambling
There is a big possibility that he will borrow money, and saddest thing is when he lost that borrowed money due to gambling, eventually it would ruin his life. Next thing you know he already committed crimes by getting money illegally.

Gambling is only for individual who knows how to treat it right, gambling should be fun so treat it as an entertainment where you have to pay to enjoy the show. If anyone gamble don't expect huge return and let it go when you experienced losses.

Limited in number. Limitless in potential.
I guess theres no way you can stop from gambling if your using internet and bitcoin in gambling, because internet and bitcoin will never be gone. And as long you have a bitcoin its hard to stop gambling if you are used to it. But if like casinos in some other places, maybe you can avoid it, bring always,your family to a trip and never go to a place like casinos even its only toys for kids. Because there are tendency that you will back being a gambler, so much better to go like restaurants and a movie trip.

Staying away from gambling is pretty easy if you compare it with other addictions, I think gambling is purely about self controlling.
If you can control yourself there would not be any problem and you can easily stop with it in my eyes.
I think you can not take lightly to the affairs and problems "addiction" if out of a gambling addiction as you say. certainly few people still be addicts or even some people become addicts. because out of the gambling fairly easy?

Staying away from gambling is in my eyes not so difficult because the fact is that gambling is just a way of enjoying yourself.
If you can find another hobby you will most likely stop in a no time.

I also think this can be a good way to stop with gambling and find something else, tell your friends that you want to do something.
I think this could really help you without a doubt.

You might call me strange but in such conditions this actually works :  Start to drink and stop using internet , this way after sometime you will be badly addicted to alcohol but actually leave gambling, then you can treat your alcohol addiction easily as its a physical hobby and not just a virtual or online hobby.

This will not work, you are just replacing a bad habit with another bad habit. Worst case scenario, you get addicted to both and you will end up a drunkard gambler. And you'll always lose because you bet drunk. This is the fastest way to lose money not quit gambling. Get professional help, it's better if you are not afraid to ne judged.

i tried staying away from gambling, butttttt i cant, its always calling me back poker, sportsbet and dice, this 3 are my vices the temptation is strong Smiley

solved it and find a solution or better you find some offline games
and try something new like doing some sport to stay away from gambling
Yeah I always go back to gambling somehow if I see a soccer match and there I was not gambling. The match was not cool and not stressful. feels something is missing so I'm always a gamble when there is a soccer game. I don't know if this is addicted or not. but I'm always a gamble in soccer

Just focus on investing ang blocked all the gambling in your browser

That is a good idea of blocking some particular sites which you feel you are addicted to. But investing is another kind of gambling with low risk, basically investments hardly ever pay you more than what you invested, unless they are legit investments.

haha, that is not going to work because a block is never going to stop an addict from accessing the site unless they ask someone else to do the blocking for them.

because even if you block the site for example by adding it to your Anti virus or firewall you can always remove the restriction with 1 click and even password protecting the AV is not going to work because you will know the password.

It is hard to stay away from gambling and especially if you are addicted to it, you have to know that you can be poor because of gambling and to realize that it is bad to do.
We just can give you only some tips but you have to do it all by yourself.
Yea it's hard to stop gambling when someone is addicted, but we can stop playing only games based on luck and play games which involves skills one might end up in profit.

It is not that easy to stay away from gambling because gambling let many people think that you can earn a lot of money with it and people are now also these days greedy.
So that is already bad but they will only stay away from gambling if they are realizing it by themselves.

The fact is, we can easily give advices maybe because we are not on his/her position. There are times that we can really do by ourselves but they can't

If you are in a rush to make yourself away from gambling,  you can't decide the best thing to do but all I can say is start little by little and the time comes and you will notice that you have already stopped from gambling, just keep in your mind to stop it.

Well sure it is easy to talk but remember most of the things we say here are known too by the gamblers. In such cases
they just need to hear it from another person for some confirmation.

It is not that easy to stay away from gambling and that is because many people likes to gamble because they are also thinking that they can earn some good money with it.

But the most important thing to stay away is that you have the discipline to stay away otherwise it wont be possible for you.

I aggre with you, its not that easy to stay away from gambling, but we can try it slowly
If you never try it you can't to stay away from gambling.

okay then what is your specific suggestion about a way to stay away from gambling?
just saying try it slowly wouldn't solve anything , i would tell everyone to spend your most time with someone you love like a girlfriend , family etc by have a happy times you might forget to gamble.
