You have to make your mind to keep away from gambling sites. It is very difficult to control yourself once you are in gambling or tired gambling one or twice.

I dont really think that keep away from gambling for a while is hard to do because you just need some distraction to stay away from it. When you are nothing to do you can play it for a while but try not to busted it. Usually after you stop for a while you will slowly earn back and getting some profit again and you can a little bit control yourselves

when you have free time, try something different like doing some work or sport, relax,watch movie
Just stay away from  gambling everyday I think Smiley .
I also do it on a daily basis but every weekend I'm always interested to see the list of match in that day then attracted to gamble. like that every time. any people same with me ?

you are weak. let be strong. if you don't want things keep going as old way, so it's time to try something new. break the prison and escape, fly away.
Its very hard to stay away from gambling. Because you will get easily addicted to it and that is the problem.
People should control themselves and that is very important. I hope that more people will know that gambling is very bad.

gambling is not easy to get addicted, it's just the problem of the weak. that's why i said let be strong. don't be weak at the first place.

If you do it long and intensely enough you'll get addicted too. No matter how strong you are, you will get addicted if you keep doing it. If you do not want the problems that goes with gambling, don't do it in the first place. Just keeping strong will not protect you in the long run.

when you're addicted to gambling, it will be really hard to find another hobby because you will keep thiking about gambling

thing you can do, is to talk to others about your problem, like family or close friends, once they'll know about your problem, i'm sure that they will help
Nothing is too hard or too easy. I have 8x(not going to tell you the last digit) years old grandpa, and he is a smoker since he was young. We asked him to stop smoking because his doctor told him that he should stop smoking if he wants to live longer, and he immediately "stopped", but he is still secretly smoking somewhere around the house (for some personal reason he wouldn't tell). A few months later, he completely stops smoking. What I'm trying to say is, no one can help you if you can't help yourself.

Because gambling and smoking are alike? Well I think maybe your right and I think that people can always overcome their addiction towards gambling if they try it even little by little they will realize that they are now ok without gambling.

Experts say that gambling becomes addictive in the brain and has little to do with the money or the prize that is at stake. It is the release of chemicals in the brain that cause a "rush" or natural high.... that is what the gambler is chasing.... the rush.
No matter what your addictions is... it is so much easier to quit when you learn how it effects the brain.. when you reach out for help... you are taught coping skills. Just the fact that you are admitting that you have an addiction, says a lot about your readiness to fix it

Not sure about family and friends. Usually random family members or friends do not know how to help in this situation. Best is immediately go to the specialist and he should tell you how and what should be done.

no, drinking small amount doesn't harm your body, at all, it's healthy. everyday, yes, everyday. gambling a little daily is fun, not so bad. i thought you are the one who do it and enjoy the fun from it, aren't you?

But Still I think that drinking is still harmful even if it is a little amount that is my opinion but if that is your way of thinking then I respect you for that, and yes I am gambling but not for fun, actually I am afraid of losing in gambling that gives me a safe respond to stop playing when I need to and I just do gambling in moderation.

The only way i think that you can stay away from gambling is to have a vacation and i think you can stay away from gambling or you can forgot gambling by having a vacation.. bring your girlfriend to far places and have fun with her.

If you return from your holiday you will be tempted to start gambling. So no this won't work. I think you should go into running around the park every time you think of gambling. This way you will get to tired of thinking about it.

It depends, if the vacation has a good effect and probably they talk about something during the vacation about his gambling problem then probably it would be helpful, and when they are back, his girlfriend needs to monitor his activities to make sure that he won't be gambling again..
Yeah right and also try to bring your self in psychiatrist it helps too to know how to prevent your self in gambling activities..
Many ways to forgot gambling and to stay away from them.. and i think you can stay away in gambling even you are so addicted.

You are posing in the Gambling section asking how to stay away from Gambling. It would be a good start to not visit here anymore, as everything reminds you of gambling.
Or, if you can't stay away anyway, set yourself a weekly budget. And whatever happens, do not deposit more than that budget: don't chase losses! On top of that you need an exit strategy: at what profit will you withdraw and take your money for that week? Think of that before you start, if you just keep going you are likely to lose again at some point.

and this thread has been grinding this long, so not a bad action.
it has proved itself that it's belong here, not be misplace.

actually drinking just a little amount daily is healthy and not harmful.
wiseman said: men without wine is like flag without wind.

Even if you say that there are still more negative effects that alcohol will cause to your body.
 
* Alcohol interferes with the brain’s communication pathways, and can affect the way the brain looks and works. These disruptions can change   mood and behavior, and make it harder to think clearly and move with coordination. 

* Drinking a lot over a long time or too much on a single occasion can damage the heart

* Heavy drinking takes a toll on the liver, and can lead to a variety of problems and liver inflammations

* Alcohol causes the pancreas to produce toxic substances that can eventually lead to pancreatitis, a dangerous inflammation and swelling of the blood vessels in the pancreas that prevents proper digestion

* Drinking too much alcohol can increase your risk of developing certain cancers

* Drinking too much can weaken your immune system, making your body a much easier target for disease.  Chronic drinkers are more liable to contract diseases like pneumonia and tuberculosis than people who do not drink too much.  Drinking a lot on a single occasion slows your body’s ability to ward off infections – even up to 24 hours after getting drunk.

i said drinking just a little amount, so no need to bring a wall of text about negative effects when drinking too much, or a lot, or long time, or heavily, or whatever.

Well I totally understand your point, I am just explaining my side and I think same goes for you, and I am just saying that drinking can really affect your body even with small amount intake if you do it always but that is not the point here because we are in gambling section and just like drinking gambling can certainly ruin your life in the process while doing it everyday.

no, drinking small amount doesn't harm your body, at all, it's healthy. everyday, yes, everyday. gambling a little daily is fun, not so bad. i thought you are the one who do it and enjoy the fun from it, aren't you?

You don't really need to bet all your money, and you should not drink until you pass out.


I agree. All problems arise because of overusing of something. You shouldn't "stay away" just try to learn how to control yourself. It's not about gambling or drinking it's about control.
agree with you if you can control yourself and not too greedy in gambling. you can do with separate balance to gamble and the primary balance. be sure amount to gamble according to your abilities. so when you lose it's not a problem. the key is to control yourself

Good way to start is to block access to every gambling site you have registered. Contact customer support and ask them to shut down your account, they'll help you.

Well that could possibly stop you from gambling if you try and block all the gambling sites I think that will going to make you sick if you can't play just a bit of a gambling but I think it will work good luck!

The best thing that you can do is just find some distraction. That will be very good. But that is very hard, and gambling is fun to do. We know it.
But you must realize how much money you spend on it and that is really bad because it is all wasted.
