Topic: Life with a Gambler - Solution! - page 6. (Read 1239 times)

It is very sad to see the families that are ruined by "irresponsible" gambling habits by their family heads and the saddest part of it is that they are unaware of the problem that they have and the root cause of it. Seeking professional advice could also help people with this kind of addiction. Acknowledging it right away will be very hard for them and they will be able to do it if they will be assisted by professional practices.

Yes.Gambling problems or let's say gambling addiction can only be cured if you admit it by yourself.There are a lot of gamblers today who never acknowledge their problems and so they end up ruining their own lives even their own families.I suggest to gamble only with what you can afford to lose.Setting limitations for yourself might be a great help and of course self-discipline is the only tool to help yourself get out from that big problem you had.

The moment when you put gambling before your family and friends, then you know you have a problem. I gamble for the fun

 and excitement, but I know where to draw the line. Unfortunately not everyone know where to draw the line and then

gambling become a problem. Some people will "ban" themselves from casinos to stop, but it is not possible with online

casinos. The best thing for these people is for them to acknowledge that they have a problem and to stop by themselves. 

Although it seems to you that there are no solutions, I assure you that your answer is within your reach. The answer to the question of what you should do cannot be given to you by your friends, families or even experts, but only by yourself.

What I can tell you is that you can not influence the will of your loved one to solve the problem if he/her ever thinks he has it. The behavior of the loved one can certainly indicate that he/her is a gambling-dependent person. Gambling addiction is sometimes referred to as - "hidden disease" because there are no obvious physical signs or symptoms such as drug dependence or alcohol dependence. Compulsive gamblers usually deny or alleviate the problem, and they do everything that is in their power to hide their problem.

The gambling addiction is the type of impulse control disorders and because of that, the compulsive gamblers cannot control gambling impulse, even when they know how bad and harmful they are. The gambling problem can burden relationships, hinder responsibility at home and at work, and lead to a financial disaster. Although gambling addiction can be cured, every treatment is the key readiness of a person to admit to having a problem and wanting help.

In most cases, the relationship is burdened to such an extent that it also affects the health of the non-gambler in a relationship, and ultimately determines the further course of life that does not go in the desired direction. Blackmailing the loved one to terminate the addiction will not lead to the desired effect, nor the "forced" treatment will. If a loved one is not aware of at the moment that he/her has a problem that needs to be resolved, none of the above solutions will result in improvement.

It is important that you realize what you want and how well you are willing to neglect your own needs, wishes and priorities until your loved one feels he/her has a problem.

I suggest an honest conversation with the loved one, without condemnation and blackmail, which will show you in what way is he/her looking at his/her own problem, and then comes your decision about the further course of the relationship: the willingness to fight with the uncertain end, or the decision to continue your life course in the other direction.



To all of you with the same problem, I wish a lot of luck and courage!



My questions are:

Do you have the same problem at home?

If you have this particular problem are you trying to solve it?

If you have solved it, can you share your "personal fight" flow and outcome here?

Thank you!

Well honestly i don't think that gambling addiction is that hard to get over, for me i think that people get that into gambling because they have nothing else to do, nothing else to keep them busy from spending money on it, if they have friends and family who encourage them to do activities and keep them busy from doing so than i am sure they won't find the time to gamble and they will lose their desire to do it, at least that is what i did for my friend when he started falling to it.

I also have a very bad experience of that. Life of a gambling is no doubt very difficult restricted and always in trouble, they always face financial problems and even create financial problems for people who are living with them. I will play that God may protect people to spend life with an addicted gambler.

Life with a gambler is very bad experience of my life. In my country gambling is prohibited and police raid of the place of gambling. If they found you on that place although you are not playing they will arrest you because you are setting there with gamblers. They will out you in jail. Your friends, neighbors and family will think that you are also a gambler.

But I am against this point. Reason is, why to involve families in this harmful game. Once you have decided to make fun of yourself and trying to ruin your own life, then why to grab shoulders of your family too? Don’t do this. Take good care of them and don’t let them down by doing this harmful gaming. Better to pledge on right way and that owl only lead you to best gate out.

I have also experienced going home without any winnings in gambling and i get really upset when i lost all of my money in gambling, but i do not get addicted in gambling because i only play when my friends just ask me to play. Only my friends who are a regular that almost every night they play in the casino and always expecting to win a huge profit.

Usually when a gambler gets to gamble a lot and start to lose all his money to gambling and if he has a family than there the problems start. I have never seen someone gamble away their life savings and not have a family meltdown, mostly ending up in divorce. Gambling is the sport of single people. You can't have a family and gamble recklessly, there is no way. You have to be careful, even if you want to gamble, just gamble the money you are willing to lose and can afford to lose.

As far as one can stay away from it is the best solution. Once you start gambling then ensure in life you play for fun and to make yourself entertain and not for just making money. Also always set the goal in a day max loss you can take and if it reaches you just leave the gambling for that day or month etc.

There is no one solution to this. Gambling is an addiction, so the best course of action is to be supportive towards them and offer ways to re-engage with something else, or perhaps hold a discussion about possible therapy sessions?

probably everyone will agree with this ,, because the risk of addiction is very frightening .. if you have been gambling, gambling. I am convinced that addicts can not get away from gambling before they go bankrupt ... this is an event that always happens to gambling addicts .. and in the future if we have been able to control the learning and running every game, my victory will come

Right mate i agree to your thoughts the most important things herein cryptocurrency besides from the knowledge as a weapon to earn money need also the self discipline to avoid addicting in the very risky gambling site, playing of gambling aren't a source of income as you said is for fun.

actually i always take risk in gambling here in crypto and in real life but i'm not addict or whatever you post about gambling OP for me better to understand that we play for past time with so fun then for knowledge and experience although this is very risky another thing we can bet here in affordable for us so that's the solution i think also that you need to remember that if your here in crypto knowledge is the key to earn so always try different kinds of way to learn then use that as your weapon for your future here in crypto

Yes only few people were seriously addicted to the gambling and then most of them can tackle it even if they were addicted to it with their daily life.
Gambling has lot of positivity too but in most of the world it was just portrayed as bad thing to do,like a sin and sometime even like illegal activities that is why many people afraid to be a gambler even if they wanted to be.

Everything works when is done or used in some limits. That’s why when we buy some new electronic appliance, there is a note printed somewhere on that thing with precautionary measurements written on it. These precautionary measures are basically the limits of that thing which means that beside these circumstances, this thing will not work.

The gambling is addiction to most of the people but if we realize our family situation and our future then we may don't get too much interested in the gambling the only people who hate life or just alone or have money which has no purpose for now will attract attention towards the gambling.Even though we didn't win any big rewards we will hope to win that on someday.
