gambling is very difficult to leave. if we want to really leave the gambling then the most powerful way is "leaving the internet". because now stems from internet gambling.
It's not that difficult, if one has strong will it's easy to quit.(or take professional's help) however blocking gambling site or leaving internet won't help. the addicted gambler can go to casino located near his residence/locality.
Yes only with the self-discipline a gambler can quit gambling addiction. We need to stay safer consciously with gambling by not getting addicted to it so that we can quit gambling at any time we prefer.

If you are a compulsive gambler and want to stop I suggest banning yourself from your gambling accounts by opting out from using the site for a period of time or contacting a site's official who will do it for you. Also there are programs that once installed on your PC will monitor what kind of websites you are visiting and will automatically disconnect you upon loading a gambling site. And if you are in need of urgent help you can always call a help line.

You can banned yourself from gambling by letting someone chain you or imprison you I think that will help you do anything stupid like gambling or go to a rehab facility for addiction of some sort, because by just disallowing you from the site doesn't mean you free from gambling addiction and I think the site official won't do that because of just a request from someone who is addicted he will even let you play for free for just a couple of days! I think.

all you need is some advice from a professional that is known from that kind of field and that is a psychiatrist perhaps.

The best thing to stay away from gambling is that you should have the motivation to stop and that you must realize it by yourself that gambling is only for fun and not to win some.
Of course there will be a time that you win some money and you call that lucky and that will not happen so often to you and that is the problem to win some money in gambling.

Leaving the Internet is not a solution, that is just a temporary solution. An addicted gambler will find that it is extremely 'painful' to quit gambling. It is because you do not want to stop. If you have a strong will, it's pretty easy to stop within a few weeks or less. I have a very strong will, and that is why I seldom gamble anymore.
Yes quitting gambling is not easier task like getting into gambling. I guess staying away from gambling should start from staying away from Internet and spending more time with other activities, meditation definitely would help.

I think you can try to visit some doctor or something like that to get some treatment.

I think it will be useless to get some treatment if the people don't motivate himself to stop gambling. He should motivate himself and find a hobby, so he don't have time to gambling anymore.

It's very hard to stay away from this Gambling there is no treatment for this. So it's all depend on your mind set. The better way is don't make your time free be rush in any other work then you can atleast come out this when you sit alone means automatically it come ur mind to do atleast small bet so try to avoid your free time to do other work.

Yes and better find other ways to spend your time, maybe porn is better than gambling Tongue

Well i had been addicted to gambling,nowadays i avoid it but sometimes i return just with a short ammount to try ,soo i dont bother if i win or loose just to keep the vicious calm.

With that way showing like you have no interest in your bets it goes to show that you will not get addicted to it.If you are doing it to start staying away from gambling, that is a very nice idea,taking small steps at a time, it won't hurt you...

Since you are very addicted to gambling.
-Try to get some support from your family and friends. They can help you to recover your addiction to gambling and they can share their experience and find encouragement.
- Stay away from casinos, race tracks, poke, or everything else that might remind or tempt you.
- try to do something positive like jogging, fishing, or any sport to replace your activity or hobby (gambling)

OR try to talk to a professional that will help you about your addiction.

It's sad gambling has worked out like this for the op, gambling is ment to be fun but when you start to develop a problem it's not good. The only thing you can do is walk away from gambling for a while if you can't control what you are spending. If you want to still gamble set yourself a pot of money to use when it's gone don't top up until you can afford it. You never want to chase a loss

This is the bigest problem for all gamblers if you can not stop it will not help to sert a pot of money because if they lose big they will refill it instantly and hope to recover the lost money what i have done is if now i feel the need to gamble i shutdown my pc going read a book or watch a movie until i forget it for a while

A person with some intelligence can easily be redirected to a some profiting means of life and business while the fool person gets addicted to that gambling sites and games
people who have more intelligence course they will look for methods and strategies of gambling that is considered safe. many smart people are rich of course they can buy fixed match/scores
I think it is the safest method. so people who have high intelligence do not have to stay away from gambling. just imo


There is no safe way or strategy for gambling, its sheer luck, if your are lucky you will win or else you loose, the only safe method is that you should know when to quit.

Gambling is like an enigma, and once you are stuck, you need to solve it through your mind to get out of it...
So, just stay away from it, and whenever you think of gambling, have an image of someone you love, in your phone, just look deeply into that image and think about them, you will forget gambling... Smiley

In my experience, your intelligence will not help to avoid gambling addictions. I have seen many clever people struggling with gambling losses due to addiction over it. Intelligence will guide you to make money, only the practice will protect you from staying away from gambling addiction.
agree with you I think addiction is not looking who you are , caste, intelligence, or wealth, gambling has more appeal to everyone interested to continue playing. not to mention a clever man
I myself consider myself smart Lol. and I've become addicted
