He need to tell us what happened in the end with his life and to lock this thread if its possible. There is no more place for any new suggestion as I can see.

Maybe the OP has completely quit from gambling and is now happily spending quality time with loved-ones in the bahamas or is now hiking in the mountain and just unplugged from technologies for awhile. Maybe, he will no longer open this thread again as he completely detach himself from all of this and now live a happy, hopeful, and meaningful life. However, here we are still giving advice to the OP

Even if the OP is already happily spending quality time in the bahamas and already quit gambling, there are still a lot of gamblers who may need to read these advices and may help them too to quit gambling. This suggestions are not only for a single gamble, but for all gamblers out there who may need this help.

i found it when i was reading this thread. people do give advises which i can consider as so much funny but on the other hand we give each others opinion so its up for you now op what to choose from.

so many suggestions, and everyone has a different way. but the most important thing to me is we are able to control yourself, you can slowly move away from gambling.

Yes this would always matter on your way of thinking, how would you decide because controlling your self is really that hard when you are in the act of gambling that is why most of us fail to do so.

Yes that is really what you must do if you really want to quit gambling. You must able to control yourself because if you are going to control yourself.

You are going to know your limitations and it is not that fast to quit in gambling of course you are going to take it lightly.

Slowly but surely.

It would be easy to say about how to control our seld that is i find it ironic because when we are already in the situation we somehow really be able to control our self. We are being overcome by our greed

Not all of us cannot control being greedy, because like me when I lose I think i will just lose again and again and I am thinking that I can just lose my money. So I stop immediaty cause I don't want to lose more.

just stop it and don't touch it again

Yup, this is the simple and perfect answer. Stop playing and don't see gambling site anymore. But this is not easy for real gamblers. They don't have control over their emotions. So I think they can take help from family members and also they need some prescriptions from doctors. And more importantly they have to control on their minds otherwise staying out from gambling is not easy.

Absolutely he can easily say and do that one because i think he isn't a gambler who gets addicted to it. But if he can experience also what op experience i think he will also surely ask for any advice on how to stop

If a gambler is addicted, it is not easy to say no to things that he is addicted to, just like those drug addicts, its hard for them to turn away from their vice, sometimes they go to a rehabilitation center to be cured, same as in gambling, if you are addicted to it, rehabilitation would be needed or if you want to do it your self, you would need a good research and the support of your family.

It will be harder to quit if you will just do it yourself. There are so many temptations that can pull you back to gambling. But if you are inside a rehab center, you do not have access to gambling sites. Then it will be easier to quit because you will be forced to others things and your luck of access to gambling will really help a lot to find new hobbies.

Having an external help is the best way to have yourself be cured of 'addiction' of any sort.
Rehab centers are best for these, which is why they exist. I know some people are pretty embarassed for having themselves in a rehab center. That steriotype is something that should be changed since people in the rehab centers are people who are willing to change for the better.

Once you realized that gambling is not worth to loose money and let other things for it , you have half success towards staying away from it. It is key to do or let anything internal desires and feeling which convince you to take further steps. Human nature is designed to adjusted with anything where you desires and mind drive you. You can just have some start first step is important .

I hope that happens, and what if the other way around happen, he does not follow all the suggestions here and still continue to gamble until he was bankrupt now and he couldn't update his thread anymore because he is already living in the street. Grin

Very sad for him if that happened to him, but this discussion is not only for a specific person as I know majority of the gamblers here does want to stop already but they cannot do it because they are already addicted with gambling and they think if they will stop they would not take back their loses.

Sometimes experts can't help you and you have to help yourself, there is no other way to do it but to do it yourself, otherwise you never make a real change. You cant depend from external input, it has to come from within to make a real permanent change.

The desire should first come from the addicted person. Without it, no one can force change. But if the person really desire to get away from gambling, friends, family and professionals can make a big difference if they help that person. It is hard to change if you just do it yourself, but with help of people around you, it will be a lot easier.

Yeah, it's the main thing in this case is the desire of the addict to get out of gambling, if it already exists then we should examine it if they really want to get out of gambling (addiction). then if that happens then we will be very easy to do something to get out of gambling. After that we should be able to forget all the things about gambling

The thing is an addict person has only one desire which the desire to gamble, it is very bad for him if he cannot get any help from his close friends or his family to help him change and quit gambling completely because I see that is the only way he can completely quit gambling for good.

I agree, the best way to stay away from gambling is coming from our own intentions. although it seemed to look very hard, but slowly if trying continuously will be successful.

It look very hard only in those cases when the person involved in gambling have not any other activity to do, but if he stay busy in some activity like to start a job for earning some money then I think he will be able to stay away from gambling easily.

If I understand you correctly, it's really quite impossible. For this kind of thinking statements need at least confirm the version of your opinion

its hard to avoid greedy when we have win gambling for more 5 games, and i think everybody will agree this. greedy can take all our money, then the only thing that we can do is anger, sad, every negative thing in our mind. so better we trying to control ourselves when we have to win in more than 3 times and then think to stop the game as fast as we can.

The only possible way of staying away from gambling is to involve yourself in other activities that will take most of your time and energy for the rest of the day, until you have nothing left to think of but eat, fix self up, and sleep. Continuously doing so would help you lost interest in gambling and eventually stay away from it for good.

In some ways your solutions is quite right. But this things is really not easy especially if you do it alone. Consulting to professionals would still be the best option for me.

Consultation to experts or someone who understands what you are complaining about is a very precise suggestions to do. However, specific to this case, the support family or people close to them (addict) is something that is most important. Because without the support of family or the person closest to it will not work

It is very easy. Forget the word gambling. Don't walk throught the streets where casinos are located. Don't play indoor games when you're free. Stay out and be physically active.

Right, but for real addict its hard to resist because its always on their mind. it would be better if you go into a vacation wherein there is no internet connection or far from the city. live there for a few months and i think by then you will realize that there are many things that is worth for your time.

If your addiction is not that deep, it's easy to do that... But aside from forgetting gambling, the most effective way is to make your self busy all the time, as much as possible load your self with works to be done or hobbies that needs more time, so you won't have time to think about doing gambling... Or best is you sign a contract for a job that needs so much attention like furniture making and you have a quota each day to finish... That way I think you are already earning and you have no time for gambling..
