In holiday we trust
I use to gamble a lot for on and off 10 years losing everything I worked for. You have to break the cycle the high and lows are addictive comparable to drug abuse. Now I invested my money in CUBE and everyday it grows I no longer have that urge to gamble and I have DigiCube to thank for creating a game changing coin.

make promise with itself that i will not play any game of gambling

Thats my promise too. but I break it the time I noticed that I want to have some fun in gambling.  Smiley hehe

to stay away from gambling, stay away from gamblers, specially if they always talk about gambling.  Smiley

yes true, we actually have to promise to myself, not to repeat,
there will always be something that makes you want to come back
but you should be able to hold back and firm stance

Golf Golf and more Golf has helped me.  I have an addictive personality by
nature so for me I need to stay busy doing other things. Also things that
can get my adrenaline going help feed that need for excitement. For me its
video games as I'm not a sky diver or anything crazy. Stay away from the
booze and stay busy helped me from constantly wanting to check football
spreads lol.

This maybe a bit off topic but I want to say this : So all this time you already know how to stay away from gambling , what's  the point of this thread if you already know the answer to your own question? Huh Strange.

Will a crack addict stay away from Crack?  probably not.
If you have a gambling addiction, by all means try playing basketball... But when you go back to gambling SEEK HELP

well if it is an addict, even going to try other methods, he will still be addicted to try to go back to gamble. distraction is actually not a gd solution.

Yes, that is my point, if you're a gambling addict, gambling will probably take all your money, your dignity and maybe your friends and family.  It's not worth it, SEEK HELP.

Try to involve yourself in other tasks.
Start planning wisely about your money.
Get a guide about quitting gambling.
its a lot easier than you think, an addict only thinks about getting their fix, nothing else matters to them except survival and their addiction, they wont voluntarily go out and find another hobby to take up their time. you have to forcibly keep them away from any gambling outlet or forcibly make them do something else.

To stay away from gambling you should go away at least from your pc for a while, you should stop visiting the websites which you learned or gambled before and so one you will leave it completely.
IMO, leave your PC for awhile just to stay away from gambling websites is just a temporary solution because once you are near to your PC, you will start to visit gambling websites sooner or later.
thats not a solution then, in the modern world a lot of things involve use of =computers and the internet, its wont possible to just cut yourself off from a computer without cutting off access to a lot of what society has to offer, unless thats what it takes for some addicts to quit of course.

Start slowly. Keep a separate wallet and limit the amount you want to gamble.
You can then slowly decrease the amount to gamble.
I think it won't working, it will even make you more addicted to gambling.
My suggestion is, bet all of the money you have to a gambling site and then if you lose you will never gamble anymore. Otherwise if you win, you will be rich and get some real business with your winning money

are u f***king kidding me? do u even dare to try your own way? who will be stupid enough to burn the whole all their money at once? and if that happens, no guarantee for stop gambling, at losing case, there are loans everywhere ones can grab and throw to gamble once again, and with winning case, greed may not let u stop, and fed the gamble addiction a big win like that just make it grow dramatically.

So in order to stop yourself from gambling away your money, you could make an all in bet to lose all your money in the first place? Sounds like a plan lol    / sarcasm

Sometimes what you dont expect it will become a real one so people believe that by yolo they would not get anything because it is the last bet. Winning or losing they will stop it no matter what thats why some of them can win through this method but still all games will need some luck when you play it

That could actually work sometimes.If you lose a significant amount of money or something you were not supposed to lose then you might get sick of it and don't do it anymore.

well it is true. if u bet one shot, you wont feel the fun of gambling, and wont even think of winning it back cause it is almost impossible.

Spend the time and only some of the money courting women if you are single (or men if you are gay...no judgment).  If this does not work, seriously seek help, there are several good organizations to work with.  Talking to people with addiction can be helpful and counseling can be helpful.  Good luck!
Lmao, I love how you just assume that every bitcoiner is a man Grin

My advice is focus on your study / college. hang out with your friend and delete all your account on gambling sites. find a real job if you don't have it. go to bar with your friends.

Yes exactly I think this will work. Because this virtual world attaches you badly and unless you detach yourself from it, because getting addition is only automatic, and getting rid of it requires lot of self discipline kind of works. Its hard to avoid the addictions of gambling, in time being everyone will get caught.
