Actually, some of the tips work for me naturally lol. But not in the way Gonidis suggested. I start doing all these tips only after losing a significant amount: I start wanting to go for a walk, I start recording and limiting my spending for tomorrow, try to find other stimulations to keep my mind not to think in what shit am I. Besides jokes, I believe the last tip is actually worth trying. You do not control your thoughts when you catch a losing streak until you throw everything in your pocket and outer help from someone who truly understands your situation might help.
I think this is a very natural behavior of you. Everybody who gambles long enough will eventually experience a bigger loss. And it takes such a loss to start thinking more about risk management. When we start gambling and are only winning then it feels like we could never lose. I still remember my first big loss to this day and how devestated I was after it. But I changed my perspective now, its a good reminder for me to try and be more cautious in the future. We always need to factor in risk when we gamble.
These tips will be ignored by compulsive gamblers but those who are just strating out these are good pointers, when we are playing its the emotions that controls us not the logic only people with good and strong character can follow these tips
I was spending all the day by watching videos, memes, and booty girls on tiktok. 
And games and gambling too but I am not spending lot of money for gambling in the recent years so I can assure that I am not trapped into any kind of addiction related to gambling. And you are right if we are spending more time at home and we got money to spend then gambling is one of the way available for us.
So people who chooses it make sure that they are in control of what they are doing.
There are gamblers that cannot stop themselves even if they've planned it very well. The control is a very important matter that should be done when we're staying at home.And games and gambling too but I am not spending lot of money for gambling in the recent years so I can assure that I am not trapped into any kind of addiction related to gambling.

Or is there really something new when we've been even gambling when we're always at home even before the pandemic has happened? I think for us who have been here, nothing had changed a lot.

It's all about self-control really. Long as you know when to draw the line with online gambling, you should be good to go when gambling. As OP suggested, do something else that will distract you from the urges of gambling when you feel like you're succumbing to addiction. Exercise, do something that is entirely unrelated to gambling so as to not give you any hints and ideas while you're abstaining from betting.
At that point it is probably too late, people most of the time only look for help once they are completely addicted to gambling and they already have a significant problem on their hands, a person that is not completely addicted but it is seeing that they are developing symptoms similar to what we know can become a gambling addiction need to look out for help immediately, this way you can receive help early and avoid losing your money, friends and family because of it. 
Yes because a gambling addict would take some serious mental help to get out of gambling and the problem doesn't stop there because most of the gamblers have taken loans and destroyed their lifestyle so you just can't treat them mentally but someone from the family needs to support them financially as well. So, avoiding gambling too much is the best option and even if you gamble too much make sure you are not thinking too much about losses and wins.
People who have severe addictions must be mentally accompanied and strong support from all relatives, especially our families, should be able to release them slowly because this will undoubtedly destroy their morale, everything by gambling is sure addicted people will do anything when they want to bet then I thought what he was most worried about was there.Even though we are financially supported, it will still run out if not accompanied, therefore addicts must be watched a lot because their control is always out of control if they are being off guard.
Gamblers should spend some time taking a break before gambling again as if a person is focused on gambling will face health problems and also in financial if ever there is an emergency situation. It is important that gamblers always think about themselves rather than gambling all the time. It may cause a gambling addiction if gambled too much.
Taking breaks in gambling is important because we are stuck with a pattern and taking breaks from gambling from time to time break those patterns hence leading to higher self-awareness and one starts thinking rationally.Prevention of the symptoms is better than curing it, and the techniques mentioned are, by far, the most sensible and are really easy to do.

If it is true that someone is still playing gambling, even though he doesn't have the money to play gambling, this could be a big problem.
The effect can be dangerous for the person's life, even that person can make their family members experience problems. So my advice is
that if we don't have the money to play gambling, maybe because of the impact of the pandemic. It is better if we stop gambling for a while,
until our finances get better again.
The situations will become worst if he borrows money from other people and uses it for playing gambling and he loses that money. It will make him confused about how he can repay the borrowed money. He will have two problems simultaneously: he becomes addicted to gambling and will have a debt to other people. If he can not solve all of his problems, I am afraid that will make him frustrated. Stopping gambling will be recommended as we need to save money for our daily needs, which are more important than just playing gambling.The effect can be dangerous for the person's life, even that person can make their family members experience problems.

Usually people start to mess their lives after playing gambling using borrowed money, because gambling is not used as a source of income.
So it is very dangerous if someone forces to play gambling using borrowed money, I make sure that the person in the future will experience
very severe financial problems. Moreover, the person is addicted to gambling, using borrowed money will only make his life ruined, and it could
end that all his assets are used up to pay off debts. That's why playing gambling must have a separate budget and it comes from the extra
money we have.
Since online betting comes with its own comfort coupled with the lock down I believe it's not wise to engage in online betting in total isolation because in most cases one might be tempted to gamble with a budgeted fund thereby risking what he can't afford to loose. Prior to the covid period when people had full privilege to roam the streets some consious individuals gambled with their spare money. But in a case as this it's still recommended one get a manager who would over see his gambling records to avoid spending and risking more than he/she can afford to loose

In my opinion to borrow money to gamble is a big red line, a very strong signal the gambler is losing control over his hobby and that something really bad is going to happen next. There are evidences that during the pandemic people tend to do crazy things more often than they would do in normal times and gambling with borrowed money is included on these things.So it is very dangerous if someone forces to play gambling using borrowed money, I make sure that the person in the future will experience

I believe it's due to the fact people become too lonely, what lead them to become stressful and impulsive. Gambling seems a good antidote to loneliness at first glance, but without proper management it becomes unstoppable and at some point gambling's budget will be gone and a loan will be needed to keep the gambler busy and entertained with something. When it happens it's time to stop and find another hobby for a while. At least until next month, when gambling's budget can be renewed.
The best option is to stop playing gambling rather than forcing to play gambling with borrowed money. There are still many other entertainment
to overcome our boredom because we spend a lot of time at home because of the pandemic situation. We don't have to play gambling online,
there are many things we can do to spend time at home. But if we really want to play gambling, we must be able to find capital to play gambling
without using borrowed money. One of them is by participating in signature campaigns in this forum that pay BTC, I also use income from
signature campaigns to play gambling capital. The conclusion is there are still many ways to get capital to play gambling without having to use
borrowed money.

Decent advices, tackling mainly about the prevention of gambling addiction before it even begins. Being aware of how much you are spending on gambling alone IMO is very important considering that you will be very conscious on spending money the next time—especially if you don't have enough money to live comfortable for the next few weeks or so. It's a very crucial thing to be aware of your spending habits otherwise it will slowly eat up to you without even noticing it.
Prevention of the symptoms is better than curing it, and the techniques mentioned are, by far, the most sensible and are really easy to do.

If they will keep losing, but if they are winning then gambling would help them during this pandemic. Though the saying is correct that casinos win in the long run, but it did not say gamblers will never win, there are some people who are smart and they make money in gambling, but that doesn't mean this opportunity is for everyone since it's needed to have the skills before we can make a living in gambling.

That's right. I personally knew two guys who had a very strong gambling addiction. They repeatedly lost their entire paychecks in the slots and pawned gold chains, bracelets and rings at the pawnshop. Their craving for gambling was so strong that they not only didn't think about the consequences, but they consciously committed crimes in order to spend a little more time playing slots.
I haven't met them in over 10 years, but I know that one of them died of drug addiction and I don't know the fate of the other.
I feel that when in such an environment, I also have relatives with addiction to online gambling at roulette and slots, he has also used up all of his valuable assets including his private house, now he is penniless but when he has little money he immediately plays. Gambling without thinking, I have explained and how the risks in the future still do not enter his mind so this makes it difficult to save my relative, indeed when he is addicted this will be very difficult and can destroy all of them.I haven't met them in over 10 years, but I know that one of them died of drug addiction and I don't know the fate of the other.
Honestly, I also feel sorry when he started to have a hard time.
