Topic: Longest Break You Have On Not Gambling - page 4. (Read 2437 times)
The longest break I take before was about 3 months, it is when I lost everything I won before that. At first, I lost a little amount but then because I wanted to take those losses, I continue to play until all my money in my wallet was deposited and lost in gambling. I took 3 months break because I can't remove the fact that I wasn't able to control myself and end up losing all my money.
Is rolling Dice considered as gambling? I've been playing with some Doge and, right now, it is looking just like a regular video game that you play when you are bored because of the quarantine 
I've been able to manage/control my gambling habits but with too much time in from of mobile/pc/laptop, the longest break is less than 12 hours.
I've been able to manage/control my gambling habits but with too much time in from of mobile/pc/laptop, the longest break is less than 12 hours.Well it involved crypto then I guess it is considered as gambling, although it might be just some loose coins on your wallet just to get away from this boredom due to the lockdown. Personally, I just totally stop gambling for now, will just wait till everything settles down. It looks like though, I'm 'softening' with my gambling habits, Lol.
For the other player this is your opportunity to break playing gambling because for sure others have don't have money because they cannot work because of the Pandemic of Coronavirus. Also once the lockdown are ended maybe the other will not play because they realize how big money they lose but Im really sure at this moment many people playing gambling because they feel bored at staying home.
For some others this lockdown is a way to spend some time in casinos so they bet more than they stop.
And apart from that, after the lockdown we are going to have all leagues starting so all gamblers will start gambling for sure. And probably the amount of money they will bet will be much higher than before.

Same here, some of my friends recommend esports because its the only available at the moment but it's really not gonna give you some satisfaction if you are not too familiar with it.. I am also an sports bettor but there's nothing we can do now but wait..
It would be a wrong decisions to jump into something that you are less familiar with due the withdrawal effect of normal gambling that you are having now. Dont let yourself break your good streaks on those sports that you had previously by betting on something that you do know. Instead use this time to spend more time with family and take part in some indoor activities and working out - things that people normally miss during hectic times.You could also learn eSports to be able to bet on them but you know that for keeping the outcome of your sports betting EV+ you need to know your game and analysis.

That is the right place for people who want to search for a peaceful place without an internet connection. Not all people who can do that, especially if they don't connected with the internet, and you are the one who can do that.
Just book a vacation to a well known place and you are all set. Indeed it is important to return to such places at times because a continuous gambling spree does have its bad effects just like too much of anything is always bad. Unwinding is an important aspect of life and lack of it does lead to problems.I think that could be one of many methods to learn about controlling ourselves, stay calm because we can feel boring while we stay there.
Soon enough one feels the urge to go back because they are missing their work. That helps fuel the user with a new enthusiasm to do their work even better. Now how much this has effects on gambling is not known to me, but it will be good if you are trying to reduce the habit of gambling.
Haven't even dipped into virtual sports yet, not sure I understand it, but played a few esports hands. Not good!

I haven't stopped gambling, but I have paused my sportsbetting for weeks now, since the final night of European football. Tried a few exotic league games after that but still with those I'm somewhat familiar with, and when that dried up, just gave up. Haven't even dipped into virtual sports yet, not sure I understand it, but played a few esports hands. Not good!
Taking break for my gambling activities is highly an impossible task for me as I do get my own reason to get back to gambling. I am a regular user of freebitco.in site and I do have some balance always which always enforce me to roll again and again until I get busted off. I do write coding most of the time in a day and to refresh myself, I go for dicing on different sites which are having free way of rolling.
Being an online worker, I do get more time to be spending with my system which must be the reason why I am unable to give my gambling activities a break.

I think for most people it gets hard to stay away but there really solutions to it, like having a vacation or reflecting to the loss you made and could have save money instead.
For me i only always bet money that is idle and i can afford to loss, i avoid betting seriously like having to put lots of money in casino. In order to not get addicted and become a compulsive gambler.

Honestly, if you're tracking how long it's been before you've gambled, then it's likely that you're trying to overcome gambling addiction.
Counting the days is a good way to track your progress, but you should also be doing more constructive exercises, including learning how to avoid cues and triggers that might make you relapse again.

This is an effective idea. Do activities that can make you be distracted from the idea of gambling. They said gamblers also has the underlying reasons why they gamble. For example, stress. anxiety, depression. They also need to address those underlying issues.
Correct. Doing other things could help you in a lot of ways, you could make your appreciation more wider and deeper, with that, you could possible see that gambling is not the only thing in the world that could make you happy, because the truth is, there are so many, for example is your family that stays by your side whatever happens, they deserve your time too, so be wise on making decisions where to use your time and effort, also the money.
The time when I invested in a bankroll of a casino was the longest break for me I think it lasted up to half a year or at least a few months.
i understand your concern Boss though i address OP because of His Heart Issue thats why i advised Him to Just find other place where he can enjoy without the risk of losing money because it may cause Him bad effect.
But since you are just having Fun while playing thats another story and no reason why need to quit,People like you who has self control is not a problem for gambling at all
You might've misread his post as he only mentioned health issue or did I miss something on the previous pages of the thread. Imo as long as he doesn't let gambling take over his health and could control his emotions he should be fine. But since you are just having Fun while playing thats another story and no reason why need to quit,People like you who has self control is not a problem for gambling at all
it is Good that you can live without gambling and enjoyed the company of your family so start from there.find things that can make you happy without spending money.
Well said although what about individuals who find pleasure in spending like myself which is one of the reasons I find it had to quit gambling although I'm not a gamble addict as I plan my every move. I'm in control of the funds I allocate forq my gamble related actiy and don't over react when I'm in loss which might probably lead to making poor choices.

Responding to the question been asked on the OP which say "longest Break You Have On Not Gambled" I think this quarantine (lockdown) period as a result of the Corona viruse outbreak has been the longest, as over a month plus now I haven't place a bet officially on any sport games.
Last year I went to my village home for two months due to my health issues. Unfortunately, there were no bars or casinos nearby and there was no internet connection. Although I did not spend my time boring because I had many relatives there, but that was my longest break from gambling.
you have heart issues?i think this is the best way to leave gambling mate because the intensity and the frustration may bring you another disease and that would give you fatal effect.it is Good that you can live without gambling and enjoyed the company of your family so start from there.find things that can make you happy without spending money.

The difficult way to stop gambling is when you are playing with a lot of money and usually you are losing them.
If you have lost a lot of money, you are thinking about that and ways to recover your losses and the only way out to get them bck fast is to keep gambling. This is why most people cannot take a break from it.

I also stopped for a months because I was focus with my studies and it is one of my new years resolution which is to stop playing gambling because I know that it can lead me to become a gambler who is addicted to it. For those who manage to stop playing gambling, congrats because it is really difficult task especially if you are the type of gambler who is addicted to it.
