If a quit decision is coming from a gambler then I don't think it should be a problem much for him to achieve but in most cases, we try to engage force and other means to achieve our own wish over the gambler involved to see the change we want come to pass in them, to quit is not the hardest task here, the approach we apply in achieving is sometimes are wrong entirely, this makes it seems so difficult so someone to change or quit especially when they were already found addicted to gambling.
If they use violence, it doesn't seem like it will work because change can only be successful if there is an intention from someone who wants the change. If other people force him to stop gambling, it will only cause conflict between other people and himself, where he will surely defend himself. But if there is a desire from someone who is addicted to gambling to be able to stop, it will open up opportunities for other people to come in and help them as much as possible. And people who are addicted to gambling will not just remain silent but will try to carry out their desire to stop gambling. We have to use a completely different approach from one gambling addict to another because maybe the root cause of the problem will not be the same.

Everything can be controlled as long as we stay sane.
It's difficult if you have become an addict because anyone who is addicted will feel that they don't realize it and feel that they are still sane, but they don't realize that they have gone far, so if you want to stop and get out of gambling, of course it's not that short, of course it takes time to treat it, namely By reducing activities and avoiding all gambling activities, especially if gambling at online casinos, staying away from the internet will be better by living an active social life outside the home.We will not be able to stop the habit of gambling, especially if we don't consciously feel addicted, it will clearly be difficult, the only thing that can make us quit and stop gambling is the people around us, because having them around us can help us remind us us to stop gambling, even so it takes time to recover and stop gambling, but at least reducing it slowly will help us.
But to stop gambling requires a strong intention and the right effort so that they can really stop gambling and never return to gambling again. Only people who have such things can completely stop gambling while others will return to gambling and there are even many who develop gambling addiction without help.
Exactly, for some people, they wouldn't stop gambling even they are already have a bad results. They will say I will quit, but in the next few weeks, they will going back. Without a strong inner desire to stop, there was no other way. Forgetting the defeat have experienced, focusing on other things, might help. But, they must also remember, that they already has the intention to stop gambling. Never ever trying to play again. Once they tries, the addiction has previously managed to reduce may feel stronger than before.Yeah, I see that point the intention was there, but if you failed to resist and you follow the dominance of your desire that lust inside you will be going stronger and your engagement to gambling will be more solidify you need to work more with your will and make sure that you have that inner strength that can limit your gambling session.
It's tough to work on your own lust. I mean, beating something that you are being please, gambling is entertaining and enjoyable, the problem is you really can't control once you already engage too much.
Everything can be controlled as long as we stay sane. But the moment we get addicted of it, it will change everything. Addiction means we are not in control anymore but the urge is. So whether it is lust, gambling, alcohol, or drugs, if we get addicted to it, there is no way of controlling it unless we ask for treatment and get cured. So in as early as possible when we engage in gambling, we must inculcate in our mind that we must gamble responsibly, have moderation, and always have a personal check to see whether we have the sign of being addicted and correct our ways even before addiction dominates our brains.
It is all about the way how we take it forward. If we can keep ourselves under control, then it is possible to stay out of addiction. Lust is something that can be overcome concentrating on alternative things. Some might fail in it, but there is possible choices. If we consider gambling is similar to lust, then it is controllable. According to me lust on gambling and lust alone have got different meaning. Lust is some sort of feel, but with gambling there is money involved which could cause a negative effect than just lust which is much about feel.
You have raised a very good point and I want to address it. It should be called "lust and gambling".Let's forget about the common meaning of "lust" (sex). Lust is when you desire something so deeply that nothing can stop you from achieving it. This is the right definition of lust. When you have lust for gambling then, based on the previous definition, nothing can stop you from playing/gambling. Keeping your self busy with something else or focusing on something else to forget about gambling may work if you are not lusting for gambling.
But to stop gambling requires a strong intention and the right effort so that they can really stop gambling and never return to gambling again. Only people who have such things can completely stop gambling while others will return to gambling and there are even many who develop gambling addiction without help.

It not all about self-control only but also broad thinking about recognizing that gambling is just a place to gamble with small amounts to please oneself without having to come to gambling every day and this strong desire and broad thinking can create good self-control but if only say regarding self-control it will be very difficult as long as the thoughts and desires are not very strong.
Because as far as I feel now and from my experience, even if I try to control myself or try to hold back my desire not to continue betting, it will only be in vain because my thoughts are still imagining winning at gambling and also the fun of this gambling which make a person comfortable and difficult to avoid gambling.

or totally opposite thing on which it do become even more bigger and revenue and profits made out is much more higher on yearly statistics on which this one really proves out that there are tons of people who do
come on this field and lots or tons of newbies who do touch up this space. Cant really be denied that dealing up with gambling could really be just that fun, yes its not bad but on the time that you are already
spending tons and being that impulsive then this is where problems do start. If you are a person who cant really be just having that kind of approach then making yourself getting addicted would be so simple.
Speaking about quitting and having that good control then it would really be entirely be depending on a certain individual since not all would really be having that kind of the same control
and discipline towards themselves when engaging out on a particular situation.

It is all about the way how we take it forward. If we can keep ourselves under control, then it is possible to stay out of addiction. Lust is something that can be overcome concentrating on alternative things. Some might fail in it, but there is possible choices. If we consider gambling is similar to lust, then it is controllable. According to me lust on gambling and lust alone have got different meaning. Lust is some sort of feel, but with gambling there is money involved which could cause a negative effect than just lust which is much about feel.
Gambling have both negative and positive effects, we are the ones that will choose were we belong. We look for possible opportunities that will make us comfortable in the system. We are the only ones who have complete control over ourselves and our actions. Abstinence from gambling and face the realities of this world. It's easy to say "quit gambling," but it's much more difficult to accomplish. I've seen numerous circumstances when the gambler wants to quit gambling but lacks the determination to persuade the necessities involved to cease, leading him to wager again, and this time he's even worse.
Addiction is the only thing that ties people to gambling even when you're no longer comfortable doing it, this is why it is like we see a lot of gamblers who want to quit but are unable to, it is simply due to addiction, I hope this is clear and understandable enough.
To use myself as an example, there are times or periods that I can stay for as long as two to three months without placing a single bed, if I wanted to quit gambling from there, it is very easy, and this is possible because I am not addicted, but for the addicted, it is very hard for a day to pass without he or she gambling.

OP, there are many things' people do for fun but later ended in what has been generating income for them. People get paid to play games online using Xbox or PES, most content on YouTube are also fun content but YouTube get them paid. I do not advice that gambling is good and all that what am saying is that it is a choice and if a person gets his income from there then it's obvious his good at it and he can continue.
Some gamblers believe in superstition and it's working for them as they win whenever they do whatever the superstition is about but that doesn't mean that the superstition is real. If you decide to follow them, it mightn't work for you as you don't have their level of luck.
Superstition is just a mechanism the individual uses to deceive his mind into believing there is a concrete evidence of a working strategy behind his winnings. He doesn't want to believe he wins just because he is lucky, because it's a too unstable way to see things, since your luck can vanish anytime, giving place to the unluckiness. On the other hand, superstition looks a safe method to play, since it works like a cake recipe you follow to reach the same results everytime. That is his mind protecting himself from the insecurity emotion of playing a game that can change anytime against him.Also, when you are superstitious it's harder to quit, because you always feel like you have an ace up your sleeve.
Yes, but for this gamblers, they will have to lean onto something, a belief that they can win again and again and that's why most gamblers are superstitious. Met some of them locally, and they have like a bunch or rituals before playing on going on to let's say a traditional base casinos.
But we all know that everything is based on pure luck, I don't think that superstitions can help that much. If you are not lucky that day, then there's nothing that you can do. Maybe the best thing is to just quit for good and try maybe tomorrow to see. Maybe it will be different, in my opinion.
I believe that all these are unnecessary but people are doing it for the desperation of wanting to make money very easily and fast, which is not wise. Gambling is not the place to turn to become rich, you will hardly see people getting rich there except a few who are just destined for it. Gambling is where you can get a moderate amount of money, and can be consistent with it only if you know how to play well and luck is on your side.
I don't know if you can call superstitious gambling belief as spiritual though, but we all know that gamblers are one of the most superstitious persons that you are going to be meet because they believed that things can affect their winning or losing a game.
That's why I said that everything is based on pure luck and pure luck alone. There is no amount of spiritual or whatever we call it that can change the game in our favor. So just enjoy and have some fun and gamble money that we can afford to lose.
Does this thing work? I don't know but the fact remains that people do it and will continue to do it. Nonetheless, it has not stopped the house from winning and smoothly running its business.

But, they must also remember, that they already has the intention to stop gambling. Never ever trying to play again. Once they tries, the addiction has previously managed to reduce may feel stronger than before.
If they can increase their intention to stop gambling, they will see a way to stop gambling completely. Maybe they will try to reduce their gambling activities first while looking for what they can do. Maybe it's not easy for them but with strong intentions, they can do it, especially if their families assist them to stop gambling. It will be very valuable for them because they feel that someone still wants to help them overcome their problems. If they have successfully tried it and seen the results, the desire to stop gambling will get stronger and in the end, they can really stop gambling.Seriously, it is not easy to quit gambling, even if you are not addicted to it or your religion is against it. Once you are into gambling, leaving will definitely be very hard for some people, especially when you are on the winning side at the moment. Sometimes we win gambling without losing many tickets, while sometimes we lose as usual, and that is how gambling works. However Some people are very religious. Once they are aware that gambling is against their religion, whatever amount that gambling generates, they will never gamble in their entire lives. The same is true for some people; even if it’s again against their religion, they will still gamble. They don’t mind; they only need money. But for me, that is not the case. Gambling is something that we must do with caution.
Although it is not easy, it depends on a person's intention to try to stop gambling. And when that intention becomes stronger, no people or promotions can tempt him to return to gambling because he has already seen the impact if he returns to gambling again. And there is no need for religion to intervene to stop it, but his awareness makes him have a strong desire to stop. But if they realize that religion forbids gambling and want actually to stop, that's great for them because they want to return to their religion and become devout followers of that religion. 
But to stop gambling requires a strong intention and the right effort so that they can really stop gambling and never return to gambling again. Only people who have such things can completely stop gambling while others will return to gambling and there are even many who develop gambling addiction without help.

People who are religious fanatics will indeed hate gambling and advise everyone to stay away from gambling and not even gamble at all. They know that gambling can have such a bad effect on their lives that they will never want to gamble. But even so, some still like to gamble because they are tempted to win money. And that's what makes it difficult for people to stop gambling and instead, more and more people gamble because they think they can make quick money from gambling.But to stop gambling requires a strong intention and the right effort so that they can really stop gambling and never return to gambling again.

It's very hard to quit gambling once you are being addicted cause the mindset of the addict are only being happy when they involve in gambling and also they aim for the winning so they can't control their emotion. And once they are became addict they don't mind that they will loss more money or even those their things cause once they don't have enough money some of them are selling their things in order to have enough money to sustain their wants.
As for those that are already addicted to gambling, they can either quit or they can adjust how they risk money for gambling, either way, it depends on whether they have made up their minds or not.
This is a bit confusing, to be honest. Being an addict to something means that you can't stop doing it or, at best, it's hard to stop doing it. So, how do you suggest those gambling addicts to quit gambling just by deciding to do so. If it was that easy for them then they wouldn't be addicts in first place!So what I'm telling you is that you have to understand the difference between the secret behind being addicted in gambling knowingly and unknowingly
Do you mind expending more on this? What do you mean by being addict knowingly and being addict unknowingly?
