There are some people who have been messed up because of gambling addiction and doesn't have anyone close to open up to and that has resulted to more harm caused by gambling addiction. So for anyone who's addicted to online gambling, another means of stopping it is to find another thing that is fun to do by the person and do cross addiction.
Cross addicting to other activities like gaming or sporting  activities like playing of football would help the person not always think of gambling. If the addicted person can do this, he'll definitely stop online gambling.
If they can find other ways to divert their attention from online gambling addiction, they can replace their gambling activities with other things. But it's not easy for that person because he has to struggle to get started and do it regularly to change his old habits into new habits. This also requires help from other people who can motivate him, even though he must be able to motivate himself. At least with help from other people, he can be more enthusiastic about doing his new activities so he won't feel bored. And it would be better if he could do various activities to speed up the diversion of his attention to new, more positive things. Doing physical activity is also recommended so that he can move actively and increase his physical strength to get new pleasures.

Of course, support and attention from those closest to you is very necessary for people who are addicted to gambling so that they can be aware and reduce their gambling activities or can stop gambling because the motivation received by gamblers is really from what they do and is well received. .

Yes, I agree, a good friend will definitely give good advice, if a friend is doing bad activities then the friend will immediately make him aware so that it doesn't cause bad problems, because a true friend definitely doesn't want to see. his friend is in a pathetic or deteriorating condition.

The modern period may both create and destroy us; I've seen circumstances where we have to confront the consequences of our compelling scenes. A close friend is frequently all we need to avoid gambling. Though it will not be a simple endeavor because there is a lot to learn from the system, we will continue to push rigorously for those of us who are addicts, there is nothing that can hinder us, they become insatiable and desperate to wager on games, which is understandable, but they should not take chances and apply preventive measures to quit, it's everywhere and if there is no awareness, they surf the internet, there are numerous solutions to quit online gambling.
It is true that modern developments have had a big influence on changes in our lives, but as long as we can limit them, they will not have a negative impact. Just like in gambling, over time new gambling will emerge and if a person cannot limit it then that person will be influenced to take part in every new gambling, and this needs to be controlled by diverting him to hobbies or activities that are beneficial for him.
Having close friends is very important to be able to stop gambling, provided that we have to be selective in finding friends. This means that if our friends are gambling we must always remind each other, but if we don't respond to each other's reminders then we should just leave it.
It is true that there are many solutions to stop gambling, friend, but if it is not balanced with intention and self-confidence, it will be very difficult to stop gambling.

With how easily accessible online gambling has become with just a click to have gotten access to it and with advertisement through ads even in sites that are not gambling sites it makes it difficult to fight gambling addiction for anyone who want to in as much as they are still using the internet.

As an addict gambler that earnestly want to withdraw from addiction he has to avoid any online or offline materials, resources, articles and discussions patterning to gambling. And it will be more helpful if an addict can stay offline away from the use of the internet for a very long period and involve yourself with people of same interest with you as you both discuss ways of fighting the addiction together.
And this is becoming harder to do by the day, forget about a long period of time, how long can a person endure it and not use the internet? In my case I can afford to do so for a few hours, but I cannot stop using it completely for a single day as my job requires I have access to the internet all the time.

So those which have developed some sort of an addiction will have a massive problem leaving it behind as almost anything can be gotten these days through the internet, and the temptation will always be there for them to try to satisfy that unfulfilled need.
I won't argue about how hard it is in enduring it because it's truly hard a progress to embark as everything is now attached to the internet. But something we shouldn't forget is that anything is possible to achieve when your determination is strong towards a course. For the addictive temptation may arise am not disputing that prospect but when the determination is solid overcoming those temptation won't be a big deal.

The gambling addicted people mostly messed up by loss,because the gambling addicted person will do gambling as the additional income source at the beginning.But later the same gambling addicted person will do the job quit for the gambling play.Because they get strong opinion of winning from the gambling which give more money then their job is the gambling addicted person opinion.If the gambling addicted person doesn’t have money for the gambling,they will get the credit from the friend by saying they need the money for the business.If the gambling addicted person had crossed from the gambling addiction,it help them to get back to the job.

I can't agree with you. It is true that friends always want a better life of his/her friend/friends. But I Think/observed that friends usually drink with his/her friends and also in gambling they take part together too. Even I have seen a friend who doesn't give loan to his friends but give a share of his friends.

Well from the point of view as friends, there are many, some say they are friends because they can help you in that sense, and that is something that should be appreciated, not just any friend becomes so concerned with collaborating so that the other can get out of a terrible problem. As is the case with addiction, then when you start to observe things When they are like that at that level , the closest ones, most of the time even people with addiction are friends, because sometimes not even the family finds out, they only find out when things have been changing or changing for the worse, then the first thing that in some cases of addiction is Evident, are the anxiety, and of course , Advice, outings, even if it's Drinking, well you can talk and try to see but you can help that person who is in addiction.

I have always noticed in open houses, casinos, physical sports betting games, that people bet when they are drunk, that is when friends should not stop telling them that this is not the right thing to do, that not much can be done, because the main thing there It is to have a vision of what is possible.

For some it is easy to get out of the Addiction , because they run out of Money and have Nothing else to get from, with a family member, sons, the fact of losing money at stake is something undeniable, because if not where are they going to do to get more money? If the only one who can work at all is the father, or the Breadwinner? Those are the things that should be considered, we always have a different view of addicted children, just because we have not been there, but it is a serious problem, it is a problem that must be treated as quickly as possible , because the more the addiction grows It brings more problems to the judge, and you Only lose money , you can lose family, friends, everything, and whoever is not a good friend by advising a person like that, it is because they are honestly not a real Friend , that is that simple , in Reality In some cases, those who most Want to Intervene and help are Friends.

To be honest, I don't doubt or blame your opinion, but whether an addict will easily take the steps you mentioned above, in my opinion is very difficult, and depends on how confident the person is to stop gambling.

I agree with you, if someone who has stopped gambling addiction tries to find good activities such as hobbies, sports or social activities in their environment, that is a good step, and it could be without them realizing it. , slowly he will leave his gambling because he is busy with his activities. the new one.
An addicted gambler will need some support to get that done, they can't do it themselves because they are addicted and the urge to gamble won't let them go out and try some sports or anything, they will think why not just sit at home and gamble instead? So, a person who is addicted to gambling but has realized that the addiction is affecting their life and they want to get out of it will need a helping hand to get them out of the situation that they've got themselves into.

A friend can be the best support in such a situation. If you are addicted to gambling and you have a very good best friend who is always with you in any situation, they can help you get out of the addiction by taking you places and keeping you busy with sports and games or any other activity because a friend would know what you used to like before the addiction.
Actually, there are many steps to avoid addiction but what is easier to do is not to access online gambling too often and to look for work that can keep you busy to avoid thoughts wanting to gamble.
These two methods are very easy to do but become very difficult to do when someone ignores gambling addiction.

Support and attention from the people closest to him can encourage him to stop his gambling addiction and feel that he is not struggling alone but that there are people closest to him who are also helping him. There is always motivation that the gambling addict will receive so that he can remain focused in going through all the stages of healing his gambling addiction, and he will not feel that it is hard to do. And that's because there are people closest to him who always accompany him while healing his gambling addiction.

The impact of gambling is very significant so it is not uncommon for us to find news that shows some people who finally end their lives because they are in debt as a result of gambling, this is really a big problem and must be avoided, I'm sure everyone doesn't want to be in the same position but if they don't take precautions and think that there is no problem in gambling I think they think gambling is too common, especially in terms of its own impact, they don't know about this. If you are a responsible gambler and also gamble just for fun and not addicted at all then that's fine and up to you, of course in the sense that you have to stay within such limits until an unspecified time. But the fear is when you are too serious about the opportunities that exist in this gambling, don't let you get trapped by your own mindset because you are too ambitious and put too much hope there.

Gambling addiction is indeed very scary, even though you are still at a low level but still over time it will continue to grow worse. That's right, one of the things that can be done for prevention or to stop is that you must be able to find other activities that are fun but do not have the risk of gambling, if you can do it then indirectly your mind will be distracted from gambling and gradually you will be able to forget it.

Yep, things that can make you busy really helps if you are trying to get out of addiction, no matter what addiction is it. As long as you are busy enough and interested on the new thing you are doing, the chance of you in losing that addiction stack up everyday. Actually I'm a gambling addict before and having different hobbies where I can put my money on was the one that ejected me from being a addict. I'm a bad on finance before but spending money on hobbies that I'm really interested before was the one who put me no choice but to not spend it on gambling. I don't have money to spend on gambling = I will not do gambling, easy. Though after escaping from addiction, I focus on finance and I stop spending on the hobby that I have.

Yes, having other things in mind will allow you to explore to another things it will help you to avoid thinking about another strategy to use for your gambling session, if you can find that venue to keep yourself busy then it will intimidate that supposed time for your gambling, though it's too difficult when you are already engaged with gambling, most of the time you are fully occupied and you are not letting anything to bother your mindset.

Most of the time it will continue to be all for gambling that's the very reason why gambling addicted person only thinks about gambling and nothing else, but, if there's already admission and there's provided help even how hard it is, that self-will inside that person to find a good diversion will give him space to re-assess and paused for a while then think for what possible ways to stop.

Gambling addiction recovery may really take some time. Unfortunately, there's no one solution and treatment that might fit everyone suffering from gambling addiction. Hence, the progress and the timeframe won't be the same for everyone. Some might overcome it for a short period of time, while some might recover a little longer compared to others. This is because there are certain things to be considered such as the level of willingness of the patient himself, the support and guidance of the people surrounding the patient, and many more. You see, these factors varies from one person to another. So we can't really speed up the rehabilitation. The gambler will recover on his own pacing and time.
It does take time and effort to produce the desired results. All existing solutions and treatments must be tried to find the right one so that it can work optimally for gambling addicts. The solution and treatment will be even better if someone accompanies him during the healing process so that the gambling addict can feel that he is undergoing the healing process. And if a gambling addict can remain enthusiastic about undergoing recovery, it will help speed up his recovery. Indeed, the level of healing can vary from one gambling addict to another because it depends on several things so it cannot be the same. But support and assistance from his family can help gambling addicts to speed up their rehabilitation.

If you are addicted to gambling and you have a very good best friend who is always with you in any situation, they can help you get out of the addiction by taking you places and keeping you busy with sports and games or any other activity because a friend would know what you used to like before the addiction.
When an addicted gambler wants to do away with his addiction, he must take every relevant steps to making sure he or she is free from such experience.  In that course seeking the help of an external or third party should be put into consideration. The gambler friend can come in as you have said. This is so that the friend could help draw away the attention of the gambler from gambling activities and engagements.  Possibly with the gambler best games that would keep the gamblers mind away from gambling. This could be done at the specific time and day the gambler mostly carry out the gambling exercise so as to channel the energy and focus to another exercise. This could be of help to the gambler to scale through successfully.

Addiction is one of the biggest problems there is, I am not one to be involved in complementary activities, I do do some sports on weekends, but I believe that the best thing is for an addicted person to go to a psychologist and receive help from There, and if the person does not want to accept that she has a problem, the best thing she can do is take a lot of courage to accept it, because otherwise she will lose many things, and there will come a time when she does not have money and that can complicate her life, because addicted people They do whatever it takes to get money, and that is where the serious problems begin, because that addiction makes them do inappropriate things.

But at the same time I think there is no half dosage of gambling. If someone really identifies and feels the need to reduce gambling, I think the best way to go about it is to stop gambling altogether. There is no half addicted. It is like an alcoholic who knows about the problem and who admits that remedy is needed. If that's what the addicted person is aware about and is also willing to take action, I would never recommend to just do less of a bad thing. I would recommend quitting altogether. It is the easiest way to get rid of it and then build a life outside of that addiction. Reactivate social contacts and do sports and get hobbies. It sounds simple, but that is how I would recommend someone to approach it.
To be honest, I don't doubt or blame your opinion, but whether an addict will easily take the steps you mentioned above, in my opinion is very difficult, and depends on how confident the person is to stop gambling.

Well, eliminating something harmful in its entirety and replacing it by something that strengthens your mind, like relationships or sports, is much easier than trying to reduce the evil while still keeping it in your life and in parallel start sports and new relationships. It may sound as the harder route for someone to get away from an addiction, but I personally believe that the best way to get rid of something is to not expose yourself to that evil something at all. There may be difference between some addictions, but someone who is addicted to smoking weed will probably never get rid of it if the dosage is reduced temporarily.
