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.
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.

This denial even cause them more harm than good as they become adamant and not willing to receive help and before they ever come to the realization of needing help, they may have gone to far to be redeemed and helping them becomes more difficult at this point because they will still feel they still have control and do not necessarily need help.

Such kind of impression mostly common with those people who thinks that they are just fine and their gambling participation seems to be controllable, things that really difficult to address since the person itself can't admit that they are already attached and thinks that they don't need any advice or help to solve this ongoing issue with their gambling participation.

Quote
It's important to never allow ourselves get to the point we begin to think we are just good enough and need no help, whenever it's becoming ams issues than an entertainment as it should be, it's most ideal to stop or take a break so we can give ourselves time enough to recover and bounce back even stronger this way you can curb any form of addiction that would have gradually crept in.

Having such control and keep doing that right practices will help to prevent getting deeply involve with gambling, if you feel that you are exceeding and you feel that you already losing a decent amount of money and the time that you are spending is no longer in the same amount from how you set things up, better to pause and take a break, think again and refresh yourself, better to rewind everything it helps to prevent getting deeply involve and unable to control your gambling addiction.


Quote
Gambling addiction shouldn't be taken for granted as the effects could be so terrible that one could loose things that are so dare to them as a result. As always advised, gamble responsibly as it's the only escape from getting too addicted and loosing so much to gambling.

Well said, taking that big responsibility before and not after getting to that situation, prevention is always better than a cure.

The impact is not only experienced by people who are addicted to gambling but also their families because they will face a difficult situation because they have to help their family members who are addicted to gambling. There must be awareness among people who are addicted to gambling to want to undergo examination and treatment so that they don't have to take too long to recover from their gambling addiction. But everyone who is addicted to gambling must have the awareness to undergo treatment because it is related to him being directly involved in gambling. His family continues to provide encouragement and support for him to be able to undergo every healing process. Still, he must have a strong desire to cure his gambling addiction.

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.

In theory losing everything that they have ever held dear should be more than enough to help a person to wake up from their stupor and make a serious attempt to leave their gambling addiction behind.

But things are not always so straightforward,  someone that has lost everything to an addiction may think that there is no point at all to remain clean, as the life they had is no longer waiting for them, and in that case they may as well just keep going, even if they eventually lose whatever they have left at the time.
Yes, some people find it not easy to just stop gambling. However, if he continues to gamble then problems will always come repeatedly. This kind of mindset should be cultivated from the start in gambling, because people who do not have a good mindset will certainly harm themselves in every step they take. And this is what we must always pay attention to when gambling, we must remain consistent in gambling by being able to control ourselves when gambling.

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.

As you may have observed, when one family member is really into gambling, the whole family suffers. A single person sinking means the ship is taking on water.

Discussing control now. It goes beyond "Can I stop when I want to?" Much deeper. Can they tell when enough is enough? Do they realize their actions hurt loved ones? They and the community must watch out and speak up.

Some people dont realize they're in trouble until its too late. They keep going in and out, unsure of stopping, as you noted. Is it willpower alone? Is there a deeper issue we're missing?
Yes, that's right, and the family will experience big problems in their lives, such as lots of debt, divorce, and children being left alone because of lack of attention from their parents.
Someone will stop gambling when they have experienced destruction in their life as I said above, and they will reflect on their fate after they realize that they made a big mistake and caused the people around them to also suffer the impact.
Yes, someone who is still in and out of gambling, I don't think he has experienced anything bad, so he will do it continuously until he wakes up, and this is still a mystery that should not be missed because each individual has their own. confidence in determining what is good. in his life.

Better to say that most of them are still in that denial stage where even they already losses a lot they keep pushing and trying to continue playing, I think just like what you mentioned, people who thinks that they are okay continue to engage without realizing that they also harming people that surround them and they unaware that since they are to continue playing and losing those people will continue to suffer with the outcome that most of the time it's negative for the person and the surrounding people.

This denial even cause them more harm than good as they become adamant and not willing to receive help and before they ever come to the realization of needing help, they may have gone to far to be redeemed and helping them becomes more difficult at this point because they will still feel they still have control and do not necessarily need help.

You are right that those gambler who has fund in his/her bank account and/or can manage fund is quite impossible to stop gambling. But it might be stopped too if the person can think twice about the religious fact, family awareness, and responsibility of the person to his/her family. But for those who need to make awareness from a trusted person of the gambler.

That's why it is important for someone to consider things such as religious and family morals before becoming addicted to gambling.

I wonder how can someone consider things such as religion and family before becoming a gambling addict.  No one wants to be a gambling addict, it is a process that many of us are unaware of.  Instead, we can say that we should consider our family and religion before engaging in gambling.

Gambling addiction can seriously damage your finances. Someone who has a mediocre income when they decide to gamble will definitely become addicted and because of the limited money in their account, of course they will look for other ways such as going into debt or selling their assets. Because it is important for someone to be truly financially intelligent and also care about their family.


Gambling addiction does not only seriously damage our finances, it can do worse by destroying us if we don't get rehabilitated and treated ASAP.  So the best approach is to gamble responsibly.  This way we can engage in gambling but due to our moderation, we can reduce our possibility of becoming a gambling addict.

The gambling addiction mostly affect your family like the divorce because of the financial problem in the family due the gambling.The gambling addicted person will not contribute the family in the financial way.So it may be the biggest reason for the divorce after the gambling addiction.The gambling addiction also increase the time use by the gambler in the gambling site compared to their family.So the wife of the gambler will choose the person who spend huge time on her then the game.This was root cause of the gambler and it should be avoided.

Also when you feel that you are not making any effort to combat your addiction, it's better to ask for some help from your family because they are the one who knows you and they know how to protect you from further distraction from yourself since you can't stop to play anymore and the worse part is, you are also spending the money which is supposed to be for your essential needs and your family. This is not right and people should avoid this thing happening because it won't be great if they lose the money and end up borrowing some money to sustain their families.

Yes, several factors that encourage people to recover and get out of their addiction are when they lose a lot of money and become poor and are abandoned by their loved ones, usually people like that will continue to ruin their lives again by gambling until they get into a lot of debt and always end up tragically dying. I often see news stories on the TV screen where an addict commits suicide because he is in debt.

But there are some who have managed to recover from their downturn, they realize that they have gone too far in gambling, so they try to get up and start from the beginning, even though it seems difficult, they believe that everyone can change and everyone has the opportunity to be better, it's our job. also to remind people like that not to become addicts and our duty as family or friends is not to abandon those who become addicts. always help to get out of there

But still, I can suggest some advice; you can take it if it's beneficial. It's an addiction like any other addiction that can't be controlled within a day, week, or month. Many people say that it all depends on your willpower, but I suggest that you don't have to struggle alone; you can ask for help from others. Controlling ourselves is not always helpful. And the government should take some steps to control unnecessary and fraudulent gambling ads.

Although I believe that "the best advice is the one which someone gives to himself," one needs to make the decision first before they can listen to advice, but still, I also have to give it a rethink after reading your comment. The family and people around someone's life can really play an important role in how the person can deal with their gambling habit, especially if the person is from a family where they listen to each other and take one another's advice.
 
Family support can help reduce one's engagement in his gambling activities, not where they are going to bully the person, insult or call him by his manner of name, but they can be advising the person and gradually trying to talk him out of it, making provision for some kind of fun games that he can partake in in the house, just making the person feel like they are not bored moments so that they can at least reduce the free time they have and times they spend alone in order for them to reduce the time they could have spent on a gambling platform.

The thing is that,  gambling have and most be done within a planned period and location to avoid it interference with family life and other social responsibilities,  although as a none addict,  it quite easy for you to understand what the level of risk of you gambling activirtley every day,  but still on still I am still of the opinion to come in,  all way out and avoid addictions by be more.


Responsibility in meeting the needs of the family is very important and if one of the family is addicted to gambling, the family will definitely be shaken or get into a lot of problems, and we need to anticipate this when gambling, we must always be careful. and stay under control.
Every individual is aware of the risks in gambling, it depends on the person himself whether he can be consistent in managing his money or not, if someone has difficulty carrying out activities and has difficulty thinking well so as not to become an addict. there's no way he'll just stop, it'll just get worse. brutal in carrying out his gambling. Like you said, they think that he still wants to get in and out of gambling, I think it's still doubtful that he's not sure about stopping.

Everyone is unique. Trying to break a bad habit like gambling is no different. Strokes for different people, right? If someone is truly determined to breaking gambling's chains, they'll discover their own way. Can they do it alone? Maybe, no.

A support system of caring, understanding people can make all the difference. Having a safety net during tightrope walking. If you fall, they'll catch you, remind you of your goals, and tell you you can and will get back on track. Can't it be easier to overcome obstacles when you're not alone? Be positive, get support, and take it one step at a time if you're battling with gambling. Be a light and inspiration for others. Friends and family are for that, right?
People who are not yet involved in gambling may be able to break the gambling chain more easily than people who have been gambling for too long because they can replace their gambling activities by doing other things to divert their attention. But those who have been gambling for too long, especially those without self-control, need help from other people so they can really divert their attention to gambling. But it all takes time and will not be done overnight, so people who want to reduce or even stop their gambling activities must strongly desire to stop gambling.

And those who want to stop gambling can ask for help from the people around them, especially their family because support from the people closest to them can have a good influence on them being able to stop their gambling activities. And with a strong desire, support from the people around him, and undergoing a healing process that will allow him to cure his gambling addiction.
