Wealth and fortunes can be made in gambling but both wealth and fortunes can be also lost in gambling. There are people who see gambling as bad but for me it only became bad if you got addicted to it. I'm a type of gambler who have control over myself where I can decide what is right and wrong. Gambling cannot destory your life if you have control over your emotions, skills and risk management are also factor that can lead to sucess in gambling.

I think the word addicted, When your addicted and wanted to stop doing it you cannot stop it because you are addicted like for example in gambling. People that are addicted in gambling also wanted to stop gambling but they cant because you are addicted in it. Comparing it to people who gamble a lot but not really addicted to gambling. For sure even if we are addicted we could easily stop getting addicted with our discipline if your really going to focus in changing your self you could easily stop gambling but the problem is a lot of people just go with the flow and not really want to stop gambling, and the thinking that they are addicted make them not discipline and believe that they cannot stop it.

Actually, people who addicted to gambling can stop themselves from playing gambling, but they must have the power to control their bodies and mind to stop and leave gambling. That person must have a high awareness of addicting and how they can stop the addicting. That will difficult because they get used to gambling almost every day, so it's like they will feel something is missing from them if they don't gamble.

But they can stop gambling, especially if some people help them to solve the addicting so they can focus on stopping gambling. They need to have another thing to distract their mind not to think about gambling so they can build a new habit or they can do something else.

Leaving gambling after getting destroyed by it, will be very difficult for any gambler. Because, they are always looking to recover their life back from gambling itself which means when the times of they intensively need to continue gambling the actual remedy could be quitting it.

Gamblers do realize why they are broken and how gambling is destroying their happier life still they want to continue it to restore all of them because they do not know any other method to earn back what they had lost in gambling. Because, gambling is a way to lose more in fraction of second whereas no other business or job will be paying like that. This is the reason why gamblers are continuing their gambling and getting their life more destroyed.
What pretty much happens. These gamblers are ready to leave gambling for good. They know the reasons for their current problems and are aware of it. Problem is that withdrawal syndrome and the same reason that makes them reconsider their actions also hold them against it. They see huge destroyed aftermath, they want to quit, but at the same time they wanted some payback, so they'll try for another hit, only to fail again. And if the gambler is not perceptive, he'll find himself stuck in an endless pool of gambling once again.

Kind of sad, but that's what most of our gamblers do. They tend to forget that gambling is a pastime, not a lifestyle. Next thing they know, they're broke
That's the effect of addiction, can't control even you're losing already. So it's better that we have a strong emotional and mental strength that can conquer those. The worst part of this, even they're already broke, they still find a way to gamble. If you lose, then stop already, it's not a good idea to bet for another just to lose again, it's a totally waste of time and money.

2. Individual mindset: this is very heavy, most difficult for many heavy addicts to do.
The mindset of individuals used to associate with gambling gangs, the mafia, now change the mindset and associate with wise, good, and respectable people, little by little addicts will wake up and the days are full of good deeds.


This is big part and difficult step to avoid gambling forever, in our mindset when hear " gambling " is the easy way to become rich, that's wrong. We can see around us many people become bankrupt and involve with crime because gambling but more people came every day with hope will rich in second. To stop it we need government with their law enforcement, we can't do by our self need help from everyone and institution to handle gambling addict forever.

Government can't control this point because gambling is one of the biggest business around the world in terms of entertainment. The only worst cases that put every person to a certain circumstances was due to their wrong mindset. They became out of control because of wrong decisions and other factors which is raging among themselves. Gambling addict couldn't be blamed into some reasons, but a person himself is responsible for everything.

Because, gambling is a way to lose more in fraction of second whereas no other business or job will be paying like that. This is the reason why gamblers are continuing their gambling and getting their life more destroyed.
Actually, leaving gambling is not easy if you are really into it especially when you are really interested or happy doing it. Because there are still some people wjo are doing gambling even if they are losing money. It is not what they think because the entertainment giving by the gambling is too good for them. But if we think of it, it is really bad for a person if he is losing all of his money.
If gambling for fun turned into addiction,  stopping it is the best decision to take,  gambling breed greeds, and we all know that greed is why most of gamblers keep going back to gamble no matter how many times that they have been caution not to go back to gambling

Despite the fact that majority of gamblers knows that the probability of winning is so low,  a gambler keeps on gambling because he or she feels will win more,  especially when they heard someone else won a jackpot

The problem is that not all gamblers can stop gambling if they use gambling for fun to turn into an addiction. Many gamblers will still play gambling, although they know they slowly become addicted to gambling. That will grow bigger if they win for many rounds, and that can make their greed bigger too.

And if they chase the jackpot, that will waste their time and money because to win the jackpot will not be easy, and they need to have big luck to get the jackpot.
I agree with you on the fact that not all gamblers can quit gambling once it becomes addiction,  I knew of someone that was broke as a result of gambling,  despite being broke he still went to borrow money to bet,  the addiction is too strong for him
It is actually depends on a person if he realizes that it will destroy him too much that it will bring him to its lowest point. But if you are really addicted to it, if you got some money, you will still risk it for gambling just to win and get back what is being lose to you.

This is the reason why gamblers are continuing their gambling and getting their life more destroyed.
And it is for this reason that you should avoid getting addicted to gambling or any other thing by that matter, getting out of the addiction once you have it is incredibly hard and it is way easier to prevent that outcome, if you begin to notice that you cannot spend a day without gambling then you need to take a very long break regardless of how difficult it may seem since this will help you to get out that gambling need from your system and if when you resume your gambling activities you find yourself in the same situation then it s probably a good idea to quit gambling for good.

If something is destroying you, you should leave it. This is not just about gambling, it's about our lives. Gambling, like everything else, has its pros and cons, if you are not careful you can lose all the money you have! If you are reckless you will borrow money for gambling and that will lead you into bigger problems.
Without risk, you can't win in gambling! You should know how much you can risk losing in the first place before you start with gambling. When I gamble I know how much I can lose, I can go a little over that amount but I never risk all I have, keep control over your funds and emotions and gambling will be a positive experience for you.
Gambling isn't supposed to be destroying someone's life, its for self satisfaction and entertainment. It won't destroy you unless you allow it to happen, try to look on how you manage yourself when you gamble. Ask yourself if you have self-discipline because gamblers are keep complaining on how gambling make a negative impact on their life when they are also the specific reason why they end up losing their money and being on that situation. Like they don't even know how to control themselves and their own limitations therefore they end up blaming it when its clear from the beginning that gambling won't give them any assurance.

This is the sad reality thats why most of them do mess out their lives even more because they were hoping for something which isnt guaranteed to happen.
Its true that theres no other way on how to make money fast which is only possible with gambling but to think this is also the fastest way on wiping all of your assets.
I cant really blame if they would end up on the same option on doing gambling because they do really know the chances of recovery incase they do hit big
but well its all in a matter of chance.Leaving should really be done while its early or before gambling destroys your life.

Easier said than done actually. Once you got deeper into gambling, there's no turning back. And if there is a way out of the mess, it will be pretry hard and the withdrawal would be pretty long as well. Even a regular trip to the psychiatrist didn't save some of thr chronic gamblers I knew, and ended up in jails due to their unpaid debt to different people and companies. The best thing to do when one knows that they don't have any self-control is to not start gambling at all. This way, worse things would be prevented and no such problems would arise regarding addiction to gambling.

If you are still single, you can ask someone close to you to help you out, always have a companion that will remind you when to stop. For those who are married, no other choice but its your better half who can help you out.
True, but it's harder than it seems to confess that you are into gambling addiction and the main problem is that if you are aware enough to tell your parents/family/friends then you are not actually addicted because someone who is addicted would never find enough time and energy to do so.

Its the same for those who are so much into shopping, if you have someone with you that can remind you of how much you already spent, then thats a gift from God.
I can relate this to someone who lives near me, I sometimes feel that shopping is also an addiction where you buy things that you don't need and similarly in gambling you make bets which which a healthy mindset you won't make.

Realizing your limits is sometimes really important be it gambling or any aspect of life.

what about fun ? the first thing when i hear the word gambling is fun and not profits  but for you and many other , it was profit thats what first came into your mind  . but what is wrong with that  ? people need money to live and small money is not enough to some , that is why they are looking for ways to up thier income and they found gambling as one of those  . recovery from being an addict is hard and yes you might be right that its hard to recover all by our self , that is why as early as possible some government block gambling sites now .

Sorry in advance whether this topic has been created or not.
I often see topics related to stop gambling.

Arise in my mind, everyone is easy to say stop gambling but doing it is very difficult.
So I have the urge that every individual can stop gambling by having the six elements that I give below.

Thought:
Many gambling addicts think to stop, but emotional problems that encourage individuals to have more money when winning in gambling games, the biggest impact is the opposite that gets is defeat, not to mention the impact on the family when problems arise: "I want to stop gambling". Out of the mouth.

All that is based on the mind, no, sincerely to stop gambling.

There are things you need to remember to stop gambling, not based on money, money is just greed: again, again and again.

To stop gambling there are some addicts to do.

1. Intention: the main capital intention in determining individuals to stop gambling, if someone has a strong determination to stop it will have the percentage of someone actually quitting gambling.
2. Individual mindset: this is very heavy, most difficult for many heavy addicts to do.
The mindset of individuals used to associate with gambling gangs, the mafia, now change the mindset and associate with wise, good, and respectable people, little by little addicts will wake up and the days are full of good deeds.
3. Family: in this case it is prioritized, first the family in the number position......now the family is made number 1 more time with family.
4. Hobbies: this also supports to stop playing gambling, used to be a hobby of balls, horse racing or elements that easily fall prey to gambling, now switch hobbies that do not blend gambling, such as reading, hard work, etc.
5. Debt: if the habit of debt, for now stop, accept it as is, do not look too much up, multiply look down, which needs to be remembered, above the sky there is still sky, below the ground there is still land, thankful.
6. Positive: positive thinking can also encourage someone to be more confident, first thinking evil now thinking positive patterns.

If you do the above I believe that anyone can get rid of the habit of gambling.
The important thing to do something that must be a commitment in determining success.

For me gambling is fun.
There are so many reasons why people became addicted to gambling. They may earn money, socialize, excitement, and many other things. Gambling becomes terrible to them if and only if they spend more time in gambling and if it already controls his or her mind. Gambling is not good at all, so they should stop gambling, and for me, the best solution to stop gambling that you have said is the Individual mindset or having a proper mindset. You cant be addicted to gambling or anything if you have a proper mindset because having that kind of personality can lead to many positive results. I also want to add the character of being busy, if you know that you are getting addicted to gambling try to make yourself busy, you will not be used to betting if you don't have more available time. Besides, of that, you will also make yourself productive. It is better to spend your time doing other things compared to gambling because gambling will lose all your money and can cause of doing some valuable stuff.

OP, you didn't add "will power". Having will power can also add up and help a lot for anyone who truly wants to stop gambling.
Someone who is truly committed to stop gambling can strike out to not gambling for a whole month and he/she can succeed in it so far they have will power. But then again, will power can be altered even at the minute of trying so hard. Yet, it's still one of the best way to go.

If something is destroying you, you should leave it. This is not just about gambling, it's about our lives. Gambling, like everything else, has its pros and cons, if you are not careful you can lose all the money you have! If you are reckless you will borrow money for gambling and that will lead you into bigger problems.
Without risk, you can't win in gambling! You should know how much you can risk losing in the first place before you start with gambling. When I gamble I know how much I can lose, I can go a little over that amount but I never risk all I have, keep control over your funds and emotions and gambling will be a positive experience for you.

Exactly that. Gambling is just one of those things that can be abused, and eventually cause a detriment to your quality of life.

It's even possible to get addicted to positive things, like sex, power and health, which can cause detriments elsewhere when abused.

I think it's always important to tell people when you start these things, just so you've got some support if it all goes wrong later.

But hard work is not a hobby, is it? And since it's definitely not, we have a problem here.
You are wrong, in warding off the bug...

I mean "HOBBY" and "HARD WORK".
Not the opposite of hobbies / hard work, hard work / hobbies, that's not it...

The real meaning, if you used to be a hobby ball, boxer, horse racing, and so on, if you stop playing gambling, it's good you are not too active in your past hobby, where there is a match you must be present, it all can attract you again in gambling because in your past hobby there is an element of gambling.

So, you turn to choose a simple life as it is "without gambling" with your family, of course if you stop gambling, the demand is "hard work" to meet the needs of your family.

That's the true meaning and understanding.

if you don't "work hard" your body will die because without the food you produce...
