You can't really stay away from gambling if you are already addicted to it. Unless you don't have the money to use in any gambling you are playing. Find another way to spend time will work if you do step by step until you will be able to forget about gambling.

The best thing to do is to get some motivation from your dreams or inspiration. First you have to think what motivates you to earn bitcoin and then, write it on a peace of paper or on a sticky notes and put it beside your monitor. If you see yourself that you want to gamble again, motivate yourself written on sticky notes. On that method, you will think that you need to stop it because you need to earn in a precious way, not on good bad way.

A lot of gambler might tell you how good it feels to get out of the serious gambling addiction but still these gamblers still go back to whenever they have chance and money to spend.  the only way for a gambler to stop gambling quick fast and in hurry, these gamblers better to have given some responsibilities feeding their kids or paying the rent else they;d be homeless if they loss big money.
I have not met any gambler who got recovered from gambling addictions. But if it would be possible for any gambler then he might be the luckiest person as he will regain his life back. But quitting gambling is not possible for many gamblers as gambling keeps on attracting them to go back to gamble again and again. It must be better to stay away from gambling to avoid addictions of it.
We are discussing that only, how to avoid gambling addictions by staying away from it. Once you were into gambling and staying away from it must be a very tough challenge of your lifetime. You must need very strong heart to avoid gambling after you get practice to use it more frequently.

Yeah it is not an easy way to get out from gambling once you started it because gambling can make you addict from their great money payout and if you are lucky you can sure win a lot in that instant of time. Actually it depends on yourself whether you want to get it out or not, if you want to take some risk you can play a little bit and then get out or if you cant bare with the result just dont play it. Do something else out there will be better although the payout doesnt really good. Make some distraction by doing something else will let you stay away from gambling for sure

Makes your day busy, like doing your job or doing your hobby like playing online games, watching movies. It will takes your time and makes you busy and not remember about gambling.

Probably it's not effective because being part online or with your pc can't help you stay away from gambling. Because an addiction cannot be avoided if you are still using the device where you are betting.

Same situation sir im being addicted too in gambling two years ago everyday i do gambling if one day i cannot gamble i feel sick see what addicted me in gambling. I have no luck in gambling but now i stop gambling i find another hobby not to gamble now i go in trading and here in forum. The best thing you can do self decipline.

It is good that you finally stop/quit from gambling in your own and you made it without any other people implicating.
And for me, your new hobby are much more better that the old gambling hobby, cause for me you can just lose lots of money in gambling but in trading if you have patient then you can earn money in a long run which is good.

agree with you, Im ex gambler too, now im focus at etc trading and mining today i earn arround 0.1btc that's big money for me, because with gambling im never win any amount. and trading make me forget to touch gambling again.

That was good you already found yourself in trading. I think you don't meant in gambling. I am also a loser in gambling before but I know how to handle my money so I don't lose huge amount. I just gamble occasionally and nothing more.


It is better if you are going to focus yourself in trading rather than going to focus in gambling. And it is going to help you if you want to get addicted with another addiction which is better and going to be profitable at all. And good thing that you are now into trading and as well as mining.
Keep it up the good work.
That was true, it is better to get addicted in one thing which is a better and profitable than gambling, I also wanted to learn about trading so I can also start investing for now, so I can be addicted also in much more profitable activity.
Don't also enter an investment company that you don't know how it works; make sure you always go to their seminars to know more.

It's also a good thing you yourself identify your problem/ addiction that is the first step of being able to change. Admitting your problem helps you know what the solutions can be. Have you tried telling your problem to close friends or your family? It helps  a lot.

Close internet connection, lol. That's the most effective way to stay away from gambling. Don't go casinos, don't go illegal gambling places. Don't think about anything gambling related. If you are addicted seek for medical help. You stopped using forum, I hope you found solution for your problem. You got 162 pages of help messages. Cheesy

Don't you dare store BTC in a gambling wallet. Block those sites or try to use your laptop near your parents. Don't gamble, try to lock your wallet.
The moral of the story is not to ask someone else to block a casino's website for you. It is flawed logic if you think that could help.
You have to *want* to stop gambling yourself. If someone else block it, you will try to find another way, play on another machine, on smartphone or during work etc.
As said by a person, " Gamble what you can afford to lose"

Like many people are sharing here, staying away from gambling is becoming essential when you are having more losses with it. But the consideration of staying away is turning into a big concern when you are going for gambling beyond the limit of your spending capacity.

When you are controlling your gambling within your spending limit, then there is no need to stay away from it. Gamble always but do it with ONLY excess money.

You can not stay away from gambling as long as you have money. Gambling is one way traffic because whenever you will be able to manage some money your first thought will be to try last time to get all losses back. This last time will never be last time as this is seen over and again again. I don't think that everyone can stay away from gambling just someone with powerful character can succeed not everyone.

The addiction of gambling is sure to be very strong and it is very hard for one to control their feelings and urge. That is why they need others to help them. They need professional helps and they also need help from their loves one to constantly remind them and divert his attentions away from gambling.

I agree, any kind of addiction is very hard to remove but I don't agree that it is only a oneway traffic.  There are lots of people who are addicted to gamblin but somehow managed themselves to go normal.  With the professional help, they manage to overcome those urges to gamble.

if you wanna stay out of gambling then stay out of internet. If you stay out of net you won't be able to play gamble in online.because if you on the net you will see many features of gambling which will attract you. I know my suggestion is little bit funny. but I think its quiet well

in my place you can gambling in offline mode too, i think it's not a real solution, im ex gambler, i stop my gambling because i found other way to growing my money, and im not interesting to deposit or gamble again although 1satoshi, because if i start gambling with small capital, i will deposit again to recover my lost, and not stoping except all my money out.

the real solution is don't touch gambling, don't thinking about gambling, if you have money/bitcoin withdraw your money then buying mining hardware Smiley

Yes that would be a great solution! and it is great seeing people that stops gambling before the worst occur to them because you will never know when addiction will strike on you, and yes bitcoin mining is still in, but it is not really recommended in some countries because of electricity cost, internet speed and cost, and the mining rig is highly expensive!

we can try other way to stop gambling, maybe trading is not bad, we can manage our time to learning about trading, then invest our money to growing our skill, it's better than gamble then lost our money

Yup! trading can be learn but you will need a lot of experience when trading, you can certainly ask a help with someone familiar with it too, and I think a lot of people are trading right now and instead of gambling and mining they will trade there bitcoin or what ever alt coins they have
As they say that experience is the best teacher, so when one like trading and want to make money he should always start with a little amount of capital so if ever he will not succeed at first try he can easily recover and make that first failure as your learning experience to continue your journey in trading.

Yup! that example is a best way in making progress if you really want to achieve a certain learning you need to experience it first well a little amount of bitcoin or so will never harm your wallet right? and I think it can lead you in better mind set before you trade.

Having money is not the main reason why people doing gambling, people can stay away from gambling as long as they want to do it even though they have a lot of money.

Makes your day busy, like doing your job or doing your hobby like playing online games, watching movies. It will takes your time and makes you busy and not remember about gambling.

Keeping your self busy would really help to prevent you from visiting gambling sites, working on your day job and making more over times and accepting extra jobs would really make you busy the whole day and even before dusk..During weekends too, instead of playing online games, I think going on an outing/swimming or hiking could really help you and  it is good for your health too, physical and mental...  Smiley

That could help but I would suggest you do games that would let you stay away from your computer. Doing a physical games like sports would help and it would be beneficial to you because you are living a healthy life style then.
