You treat gambling as a place for entertainment and you enjoy every minute of it, but your family tells you to stop gambling for a week and challenges you to check other platforms for the same level of enjoyment that you experience in gambling.

So what will it be for you?

Mine is having a long ride on my motorcycle I feel it's refreshing and enjoyable, especially when I take on zigzag roads.
I'm a responsible rider and advocate of safe riding and if I'm not gambling online I love to take a long ride I have the same enjoyment doing both.

Well, actually, I don't quite get the essence of the contents of the thread you conveyed, especially the second point. but okay, I will interpret it if you have two habits that you can be responsible for. On the one hand, you are a motorbike enthusiast and on the other hand you are a gambling enthusiast. However, you are still responsible for the two hobbies you enjoy.

Now let's focus on the real point, according to the title of this thread. if I were you, or say I was in your position. The first thing I will ask is, what are the benefits for me if the challenges actually have something in common? Well, so this is the point I mean from the essence of the thread you described. Actually, I don't really understand it and I'm sorry about that. however, if I were given such a challenge. without needing to think at length. Most likely, I will reject it. After all, what should we look for if we are comfortable in our favorite casino? moreover, the challenge offers the same thing. In essence, there is nothing more interesting to make me follow the challenge. So, that's how it is from my point of view.

Ill stick to the things on which i do prefer of course. lol

There might be some recommendations neither from my family or with my friends or other people but still i wouldnt really be leaving out on a place on which i do prefer
but if i do see something which is interesting then i might reconsider with those suggestions but if i do see there's no difference and i do still prefer the old
then i would be sticking for a while and might be transferring into place if ever i do see something interesting aside from the current that im dealing with.
So it would be always matter on someones preference.

I play sports but the problem is that during the night hours, I get free time and gamble. I am not addicted by any means but that said, I do want to get rid of it.

Now I try to sleep a bit earlier to avoid getting into the same cycle and keep myself busy and it works until it doesn't. Btw, refreshing to see people sharing their thoughts and hobbies because there are some good ideas to engage myself in and postpone gambling.

Late-night Netflix was leading up to gambling for me, so I have distanced myself from it now.

Going out, doing something that you've never done before like nature tripping, hiking and any other activities that's going to make you tired all day long. But if I just want to take sometime and then get the same level of enjoyment, is anyone find taking a rest is enjoyable as in doing nothing and you're just all over the social media watching all of those shits that are posted there all day long? All day lying on the bed without doing anything at all. I find it sometimes enjoyable and it's the same level or even more than the fun that I can find with gambling. I just remember the famous song of Bruno Mars' The Lazy Song. Tongue

I believe I will have the same activity as yours. Traveling and exploring areas that you've never been out of.
This for me will give enjoyment and relaxation of mind. Explore the nature and you will find out that you will be refreshed.
Should rest from all social media channels and as much as possible be off grid so you won't think of outside stresses.
Detoxifying from the use of social media I think is a very good chance of detaching yourself from others, hence, anxiety, depression and other negative emotions might go away.

To be fair, social media addiction gets way too much hate than it should. I don't understand how it's even addiction because for me it's more like a boredom killer. If you have something useful to do, you won't bother with social media and if you don't have something good to do, I don't see a problem killing some time on social media.

Gambling is a problem because you are losing money and control over your finances. Usually surrounding yourself with people will help because when you are around friends, family, or even professionals, you won't gamble. In fact, this works for most addictions that exist.

Well, it's a good thing that you are devoting your attention to something like a habit to avoid gambling. It's a good practice and also a good indication that you guys who choose to do other things than play gambling and waste money only show that you have self-control and self-awareness.

For me, gambling is only a hobby. I once experienced being addicted, but it didn't last long as I diverted my attention to something else, something like earning money or something that would entertain me, like playing games or watching movies. In short, I balance my hobbies, including gambling. I always keep in mind that I should not overdo any of my hobbies, especially gambling, so you don't have to stop it completely if you can't or you are really fond of gambling; you just have to balance it and also limit your spending; spend only the money that you can afford to lose.

"Like a habit ". But I think gambling can also be a habit. It only depends on the person though if their gambling habit is bad or good. If it is bad, obviously we should quit on it and find something else better. Most of us still has a self-control and awareness. It's just that it works hard on some other things. Anyways, it was great to know that you have overcome your gambling problem. And thanks for dropping a good tip there.

I agree that stopping it is completely hard and painful. This is why I kept on re-enabling my browser and installing my apps again, but this time I am trying hard to control myself. I make sure to allocate more time and money now on more important things.

It can also be a Habit and we know that but due to it's negative effect to some person that's why I prefer to call it as an obsession, most especially that it requires monetary value to go along with other players. You're right, It's quite difficult to overcome this obsession to the point that you need to seek medical help and worst case is being in a rehabilitation and If you know how to control yourself and you are aware of what will be the affect of this to you, then you are indeed a responsible gambler.

It is more like a challenge from family members or friends who care about you and want you to prove to them that you are not addicted to gambling as you claim not to.

LOL, I am not an addict; don't feel bothered there Kiss

. Sometimes work even compels me to take a break from gambling for like a week or even up to a month. Some months ago, when I had some business issues, I traveled for about a month. Sorting things out alone was enough stress that I had to even cave out and get a little sleep. So, there is no need for them to want to even test me to see that I am not a compulsive gambler.

Gambling is fun but at times you can't afford to spend money on gambling, not even the lowest amount, so you have to wait for some day to make some extra money before you continue to gamble and find something else to spend your free time on, for example video games or visiting the cinema with your family.

There is something I like doing on my free time, that's hunting, my family farm land is in the forest where you can hunt for animals, you need to know how to handle a gun at least and you should also go with friends, I don't do hunting on my own alone because it can be dangerous at tomes but it's really fun.

Family gathering, or going out with friends are fun too but I can't do this if there is no holidays around the corner, my family members are living far away from me and we only meet up when Christmas is nearer or some local festival is happening.

Gaming can be an alternative provider of top-notch entertainment. Many of the favorite sports that gamblers bet and gamble on have games which can be played on consoles and offer same excitement for whoever gets in control. There are many varieties of games suitable for any gender, female and males, so gaming can provide entertainment for either the woman or man who has been challenged by her or his family to give gambling a break.

Fortunately, no one is going to tell me to take a break from gambling because I don't gamble recklessly,

It is more like a challenge from family members or friends who care about you and want you to prove to them that you are not addicted to gambling as you claim not to.

You do realize that the same adrenaline rush that you are getting from "gambling" are released when you are participating in a high risk activity... right?

You are addicted to the "feel good" chemicals that are released in your brain, not in the actual activity. So you can participate in any other activity, where there are a high level of danger and still get the pleasure from that. (Sky diving / Base jumps / UFC / Motor sport... etc.)

The fresh air will also do you good..... and also the physical activity that comes with this activity. Wink

If I don't have to gamble on weekends, I also have options to relax with relatives at small monthly parties. The things that I often like to do are paint and listen to music. I'm not a person who likes noisy places. Sometimes just sitting alone and reading books to find inspiration in life is also relaxation time.

I highly recommend gambling if it's simply seen as a platform for relaxation, but usually around me people can't control that, which makes me realize that I can't become addicted.

At a time when I thought gambling might be a lifeline for difficult times, I actually got lucky, but thinking back, it was risky. From seeking relaxation to becoming dependent, balance in life brings us back to seeing what we need to experience.

mine is MMORPG that is heavy on PVP or large-scale wars. currently, I am playing an MMORPG that is like that, it is heavy on PVP, large-scale wars and inter-server wars. what I meant about inter-server wars is that you can visit another server for several hours using a ticket and can join weekly war event that is going on that server to support allies that are on that server to either defend the resources or take resources. there is also a region war where each of the castle holders on each server can join the region war and have the chance to become the emperor, this region war lasts for 3 weeks.

I have cut back on my gambling a lot this past year but the game I mentioned is always my go-to game if I want a break from gambling.

If we gamble for fun then it is okay to stop gambling when we have a hobby or other enjoyable activity. In my opinion, gambling is not an activity that we should always do, stopping or taking a break from gambling activities is not a bad thing

But sometimes we don't just see gambling as a fun activity, we see hope in gambling, where we hope to get the jackpot or we hope to get back the money we have spent gambling. If we have thoughts like that then we will refuse to leave gambling. Some people may see gambling as a fun activity but most gamblers don't so they don't want to stop their gambling activities

I'd say video games are probably the next best thing.

They offer some degree of thrill and can pump you full of adrenaline. That's true especially for horror games and battle royale type of games like modern warfare where you feel alone on the battlefield with other players looking for you.
They allow you to relax if that's what you need.
You don't have to leave the house, so it's accessible 24/7.
When you find the game you like they allow you to immerse in the world and forget all your troubles.

The downside is they're also addictive, especially MMOs, so if you have trouble with gambling addiction it's possible you'll turn one into another.

Playing games, I like playing games than going outside and interacting with people. I prefer indoor activities to outside but I think there is no harm in going to malls to check for new movies to watch and treat the younger family members.

But as I said, it would be mostly playing games and looking for new MMORPG that is newly released to play. This activities may distract me and possibly let me forget about my gambling activity for some time.

For me as well, playing basketball or any other games, like even chess with my son. So there's a lot of outlet that we can go to to be entertain not just the regular gambling. Of course it won't replace the feeling of winning, but at least there are activities that might benefit it physically like indoor and outdoor games just to soot out our selves away from that gambling.

And it's good to see that most gamblers here have their own outlet similar to mine. And as a human being, we need diversity in life and not just focus on like playing and gambling all the time and it can also damage us mentally.

If you think of something of enjoyment, it should be things like games and leisure and not gambling that keeps your heart busy and tempo raised. No matter how we trick our heart, there is a special feeling that is associated with gambling that is not in ordinary games. The simple reason is that money is involved so the focus is always to make more money. The only thing we realize the full fun of gambling is when the winning comes it. This is the only time joy and fulfilment is realized.

In order to fight gambling addiction as well as depression, many people have suggested we gamble for fun and not just for the money. This might make sense to a lot of people but the fact cannot be distorted and that is the reality that winning brings joy while loses bring pain.

In conclusion, gambling is not where I catch fun, there are many other things that gives fun. Gambling is to enable me make more money.
