The best option is to find some distraction. I think that is the most important. And you must also say to yourself that you must stop gambling.
If you can say that to yourself then you are good. Or you just can find a hobby or a sport that you like to do.

Staying offline will save you, do real sports instead of betting on them. There are so many things that can be done out there without gambling.
Does betting offline doesn't contributes towards gambling or anything other then dice is not gambling ? The addiction is in the person and not in the playing area,which he needs to get rid of.

online is a necessity. I could not leave it mate
Since when are people dying lacking the Vitamin - ONLINE  ?

You can stay away from gambling by not gamble at all, its the best way to just ignore the suggestions from other people.
Its all in year head that you want to gamble, you just can stop or ignore its not as hard as most people think.

While this may seem like the easy and only way to stop gambling, some people are actually addicted to it. Like cigarettes, its easy to say you can just stop but a whole hell of a lot harder to actually do it. I would recommend anyone who has a gambling addiction to find an alternative hobby to spend your time on. Whether its sports or video games, books, building, anything that will get your mind off the games has got to help you at least cut back.

While my guitar gently weeps!!!
in order to completely stay away from gambling i would most probably try to find some new hobbies that would help me to avoid thinking about gambling

Yup...find something new to focus on..finding a hobby that don't include internet might be a good one...also, forgetting how much fund you have in your wallet might also help.. it is tempting..  Smiley

The most decent way IMO is restricting your access to money and bitcoins, if you can't control yourself completely then avoid having access to your bitcoins in a paper wallet and money in general "keep it with a family member or someone who knows your problem".

The only down side of that is you know who keeps your money... there is tendency that you will still ask for it... might be good if you keep your money on time deposit in banks or in any bitcoin investment..  Smiley

I had a sports gambling problem due to having a serious financial issue pop up around the same time I lost some important people in my life,so I know gambling can be hard to kick and I can really only give you what I did.

I switched from sports to another gamble in poker,which I then turned into Travian and other games online.
The brain just need some kind of kick start to get going down the right path.
I started working out more and lost some weight,which helped me think clearer and not be so quick to look for a way to relieve stress. Now I can gamble without issue and know my limit.

It took a long time to get here and I had 3 months hiccups until I realized I had a 3 month itch. Slowly the waves of itch spaced out and became farther apart. Also letting people know what I was going through helped a lot.

I think the best solution to stay away from gambling is just finding another income's sources and simply don't visit the Dice and Casino sites at least for more than month, because as we know gambling is addictive and so risky

I don't bite.
Staying away from gambling is not easy deal. Especially for peoples who got addicted with gamble. These people should use their will power and find something else to do like another good hobby can help to stay away from gambling.

Yep, especially if you already won lots on it and still hoping that you can do the same run, then it's hard to stay away from it. The best thing you can really do is don't hold too much money on your hands and try not to visit sites that have something to do with gambling.
So, what if you are naturally rich and always hold big amount of money most of the time?
You should have donate your money to charities instead, lol.

What you can do is tell someone you trust to change your password for all your coins, so you cant access them. I think there is a function to lock your coins for a particular amount of time yourself  but I dont know how to use that yet. If you are still robbing people and stuff to get your fix of gambling, then we would be talking about a serious problem.

-_- No money, No Gamble... You work hard more.. and send your money to your wife or mother! Gambling for fun with $1, $2... so on?


That's a nice self control...if you really don't hold a money, you'll work hard and if you have money and already send it to your wife or parent then you'll really work hard again, it would be a good cycle to stay away from gambling..its more on discipline...

not my favorite way. in fact, i used to not agree with it, but since many ppl here mention it, make me think again. for whatever method, just bring the result of quitting gamble is all good.

Start meditating, stop gambling... Wink
That's the best way, as you will get your concentration power improved, which will help you stop doing things you don't want to do...
It will break your addiction towards gambling and you will stop visiting those freaking sites which look so well-designed that you get attracted towards them and start playing there...

hm... call it the best way is too much, i think. i have just turn to agree with it, but not too much into it to call it the best. but good for u since found the best for yourself.

You need to keep yourself busy in some other activities like playing sports or going for a movie, or even going on short vacation for few days, that will divert your mind from gambling.

That opinion may have a point. Because if we do things to make ourselves busy, it can be ascertained that diverting our minds from alah an addiction such as drugs and gambling. But the transfer that thought also has a time limit, and if we can not divert the mind, it is certain we will do it (drugs and gambling). So if we want to get out of gambling, Put away thoughts of gambling and avoid things that concerned about gambling.


I actually agree with you. People who are addicted to gambling must indeed have a distraction. Because without distraction they not stop gambling.
People need to find a sport or a hobby they love to do.

The two of you are mostly correct in term in concentrating your thoughs with other things than gambling hubby will be great but when money is involve you will never know how much you will loss with just hubby than gambling well that will be very disappointing indeed, but when a hubby doesn't involve money it is a great thing to do because of no money involves
