Topic: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. - page 29. (Read 10434 times)

self control is really needed, but if it is not strengthened by high commitment, self control will only be a passing wind. I mean, if someone has high self control but does not have a strong commitment, one day they will definitely be tempted by all the risks involved in gambling, such as emotions and greed, which will destroy that self control, but if someone has a strong commitment, they will never be able to defeated by emotion or greed.
because commitment is something that is difficult to maintain and if someone has high commitment he always avoids big risks or even stops his gambling habit.

Inasmuch as I know, the reason why most of us derives joy in gambling is because of the fact that we see it as a way of making fast money if one eventually wins and again we stake with little amount and expect to win big.

Gambling most times is difficult to quit not because people can't quit but because we still hope we gonna win someday.

In life, almost everything we do involves risk and possibilities of making loses in businesses are there also so it's just dependent on our mentality towards how we can play safe knowing too well that the possibility of winning is on a 50/50 Chance.

The best possible measure for tackling this issue of gambling addiction is through rotal withdrawal from gambling and at that we have to be able to disconnect ourselves from every gambling-related material and also at the same time try as much as possible to build the discipline needed to stay ahead of possible slid back into that position again by making sure that we do not only delete every possible contact from gambling but also place a no go to any place that may trigger our desire to gamble again.


But the best thing to do is to make sure that you hard never get addicted, you should avoid anything that can get you into that addiction state at first because os easier to battle against addictions than to fight to withdraw from addictions.

Even if he is doing great (I hope he continues that way). It is not rare for anyone of us to lose control of our gambling session. Has not ever happened to you? You are having a good luck streak while gambling and playing your favorite game but greed takes over you, so you do not think about withdrawing your wins and move on. So you keep rolling dices or spinning the slots wanting to keep getting more and more money, before you realize you have lost your earning and part of your starting balance.

It is easier to lose control when one is having green numbers, than when one is in the red. I do not know why, but also happens in trading, it is easier to accept the loss and sell the bags that selling for profit, because of the fear of missing out even more profits...

That's great, that's how it should be. Gambling is fun especially if you know how to play it. What I mean is for those people who know how to control themselves you will really enjoy it. You won't get addicted or lose your way if you can control your emotions when it comes to gambling.

This is so true. This often happens in most household and commonly, the children are the affected ones because of bad behavior being displayed by their so-called role model in life. I've heard and read a lot of stories about children growing up to be miserable and depressed because of verbal and physical abuse at home because their parent/s is a gambling addict. Gambling addiction really impacts the relationship within the family and affects the upbringing of the children. It's important to be disciplined and control the anger issues brought upon by gambling. This way, no children will be traumatized and no wives will be battered due to financial issues and temperament problem brought by the aforementioned.

Because its easy to get to right away and is digital, players often give it "just one more try." What people really want is to be accepted, but this is something that is often missed. This need to be accepted and the desire to win are two dangerous things that can happen together.

Its good that people in the community are actively encouraging safe gambling. If your money and relationships are on the line, especially if you're married and gamble, the stakes arent just numbers on a computer. Control is everything; who's in charge is always important. The rough waters of gaming can easily sink your ship if you're not in charge of it. Keep in mind that you shouldnt have to gamble. You should choose to do it.

You are good enough to have complete control over your behavior because that is the most important thing a gambler needs. Because there are many cases where gamblers become aggressive when they lose, especially gamblers who have families, sometimes they take their anger out on their children or wives which makes their families miserable.

But most of the time being please and enjoy push or lead us to go deeper and we just find ourselves deeply involve and unable to resist the lust to keep playing over and over, I see your view and that's right we need to have that discipline and maintain that control but in the real world it's just a good words from our mouth but in terms of placing it into actions that's something that too difficult to practice.

Gambling is a way of enjoyment and killing some time, but with the desire and greed inside, that can turn to something that can create big problems in the long process.

It will be difficult for them to get back the money they have lost because it depends on their luck and analytical skills. But most people will return to gambling no matter how difficult it is because they feel they can still gamble and get back the money they lost. And they will say that they enjoyed getting their lost money.

Yes, it is normal for them to return to gambling, but it should be accompanied by an understanding of how far they can go so that they do not lose more money. It will be better for them if they have good control because they will know when they should stop gambling before things get worse.

It will enter our subconscious so that we can become greedy and want to achieve big wins by taking bigger risks. Yes, even though they have won, it is not enough for them, and this is where self-control is important so that they can understand that they have had enough of gambling. And that makes us not chase after victory, especially if we already get it because that is enough for us to feel satisfied with what we have. So if we have good self-control, we can stop gambling without difficulty so that we will not have any burden.

everything related to money will automatically indoctrinate our minds to become greedy even though we have won a big win. If we get it, we will feel that it is still not enough and bet again, and when we lose, we dont accept the loss and continue chasing without realizing that we have lost all the funds he has and his winnings will also be used up after an incident like that a person will regret and be angry about gambling and as if he wants revenge he comes every day wanting to get the same results while he ignores the luck that does not come every day and ends up becoming addicted because he is chasing the big win he has lost.

We are held responsible for whatever outcome we face in the system, we ought to be sincere when dealing with the system, always recording inspecting categories of gambling and thoroughly emphasize on the disciplinary measured to follow inother to quit gambling for the very good. We know how the space works and ought to cut off everything linking to gambling, both real and on phones because it's more like temptations tendered to us that's difficult to resists. Quitting is mere just words concerning the system, the real deal is quitting and total exemption from gambling related activities.

This is an example of good attitude for all gamblers to follow where they never care about winning or losing but also don't chase it because whatever they force themselves to get will also give less than optimal results.
But from what you have applied there is one point that gamblers may rarely be able to do namely accepting defeat because here they lose certain amount of money and there is feeling of dissatisfaction with the results they did not win until in the end they try to continue to chase victory and after that all the money had ran out quickly.
Here, I sure there are also many gamblers who are married therefore many users give each other suggestions and suggestions for all of us to remain more responsible gamblers.
Even though it is very difficult to stop gambling at least we ourselves must be able to control it, don't let gambling control us.

Exactly, that one last shot or most of the time those who Yolo loses a lot of money, a single mistake creates a huge impact to the gambler and will re-try to recover that money, instead of quitting and enjoying they will be force to keep trying as they wanted to recover the money that they lost while playing.

I'm sure there are many gamblers who can relate to your statement, as instead of having that good control, they missed it out, and they are pushed to keep betting and using a much bigger amount trying to recover their previous losses.

Actually, after all. We are addicted to gambling because we always enjoy playing it. But from a particular perspective, we can control our behavior. We can stop gambling for a long time. But we still want to gamble later, and no game can replace it.
It can be said that this is a mild addiction. For example, I like drinking wine but haven't consumed it in the past few months, and I still feel normal. Controlling this action may be due to surrounding causes. Perhaps the main reason is that our families help us maintain this controlling behavior.

I can relate when you say you have a bad behavior or reaction when you experiment losses. I have myself felt bad for a couple of days after I had a bad luck streak rolling dices, in my case I get depressed and do not feel like doing anything.

I assume in your case you get mad instead of sad?
Because in my personal opinion, anger can be more difficult to control than sadness or melancholy. Either way, I hope you do not start to keep track on your wins and losses, because that is a very short path towards trying to chase money and we both know what happens when the chasing starts, it usually does not end well at all.

Good luck and take care of you and your family.

Yes, because I have a family and children, my top priority is still family life. I will not have a fixed balance to gamble regularly. And I also don't keep track of my wins and losses during the year. I don't care if I make a profit or a loss. Because even if I lose, the amount has been predetermined, I can still accept that loss. I know I have bad behavior, but I still have reasonable control over my behavior.

Yes, that's right, because they think it's just one game and stop gambling for a while. But they lost, which sparked their curiosity, so they decided to play one more time. This happens repeatedly until they finally stop gambling and use up all their money. If that's the case, only defeat will come, and they can only regret it because they have used all the money they could have used for other things.

There are many reasons why they lose a lot of money, and the most common is because greed comes to them, and they keep saying that just playing one more time will be okay and maybe they can win big this time. And that's when their lust gets bigger, and they can no longer control themselves, so they continue gambling. But reality only sometimes happens the way they want because most people lose.

People who have won still want bigger wins, and that is normal. But they should be able to realize that they are gambling and don't need to play seriously because that will only make them experience more losses if they realize that when they can win, it is time for them to decide to stop gambling. But not for them because they are too greedy to want to get a bigger win.

That's where self-control is needed to control the desires and greed that come. If they could realize this, they would not continue gambling and withdraw their winnings or if they lost, they would just stop gambling and calm themselves down. They need to break the cycle before things get worse, and they can't cash out their winnings.

So I thought the same thing: but it’s true that women still need to be protected a little more from the possibility of becoming addicted to some harmful passions, which include alcoholism, drug addiction, abuse of sedatives, and, of course, a passion for gambling  level of painful attraction. 
I believe that in all these manifestations of addiction in women they appear much faster than they can in men.  And therefore, men, as calmer and cold-blooded creatures, should always notice in time that some woman he knows has begun to show too much addiction to gambling.  In this case, you should immediately apply some simple measures.  To begin with, these could simply be words that a woman who begins to behave this way loses attractiveness to men.  Such words can have a very good therapeutic effect.  Simply because any woman wants to please men and such words create in her a feeling of inferiority, which can be gotten rid of simply by giving up such attachment to gambling. 
But this recipe is, of course, only suitable for the early stages of gambling addiction.  If this does not help, then you need to use other methods that only professional psychologistts know.

We need to always test our willingness to leave an activity behind, sometimes I just stop gambling for a month not because I do not want to gamble a little bit, but just to prove myself that I can remain that long without gambling, so far I have been able to do this, however if for some reason I found myself thinking constantly about gambling or being unable to avoid gambling for that long then I will know I have a problem, and then I can take the necessary measures to avoid the worst possible outcome which is to become addicted to gambling.
