Well explained. People who have gambled for a long time and have won severally will never take a break from gambling even when it is obvious to them that it will be of interest to them if they stop. But then, the feeling that I will win soon and so I don`t have to stop because if I stop how will I win will make them stick to gambling. They only try to change strategy and the kind of options they play and not quit the game.

I have a friend who will always cry after losing and then make a series of vows that he will never visit a gambling house because gambling has wrecked his life but the moment he has money you will see him gambling again and when you remind him of the things he has said, he will tell you that he will win this time because he has changed his strategy.

As you have noted, it is easier for new gamblers to quit but then this is not always the reality. Some individuals are too desperate naturally. When such a person goes into gambling they will continue gambling and rather than stop, they will always source for a means to win. This gambler sees positivity in gambling and sooner they become addicted and that becomes the end of the journey.

Yes that's right, gambling is indeed difficult to stop. Someone who is already addicted will certainly not care about the many losses they have experienced, chances are they will only think about gambling and gambling even though they lose more often. Also they will not easily realize that what they are doing is a mistake because the actions they take are not well considered so that it traps them in the phase of gambling addiction.

Usually it happens to novice gamblers, they tend to have a chance to win at their first gamble, and with the victory they can get at the beginning of their gambling it will determine the future, because there are gamblers who get a win at the beginning so they think that winning at gambling is easy to get, and if like that then they have opened the door to be in gambling that traps them, this may be a sweet start but it will end badly too, it could be a possibility in the long run.

Yes,  that's right, gambling addiction is just like drug and alcohol addiction. Gambling is a process addiction (also known as a behavioral addiction) involving behaviors rather than addictive substances. As for drugs and alcohol, it is an addiction to stimulants. The solutions to all addictions to alcohol, drugs, gambling, and even tobacco still have one big thing in common: Give up completely and never play again, even once.

If you win today in gambling, it is also a premise for losing even more tomorrow. If you win, it will only motivate you to continue playing even more than in the beginning. Understand one thing: luck doesn't come to anyone twice. If you continue, at some point, you will lose all your money. Therefore, we should set initial goals and principles if we want to play this red and black game.

that's why gambling addiction is difficult to stop, especially for those who have enjoyed the results of gambling, it is the main factor for them to become addicted, if they experience losses from the start, it is very likely that they will be far from addiction, a sweet start to a bad ending that ends in endless disaster. expected

Just as with regular tupes of addiction like drugs or alcohol, the hardest part about quitting the addiction is managing to completely and reliably quit without falling for relapse. Laugh about it or not but people who have been addicted to gambling sometimes fall for withdrawals and relapses when they quit it. As if they have been addicted to something that’s really that major or something. Now, once you’re past this stage/point in your responsible gambling journey it’s pretty much smooth sailing from here on out. Which means you’regaminv is relatively easier to get cured from compared to brain-altering addictions like drugs and alcohol. It just so happens that sometimes you get cues also cause you to suffer some afflictionsreserved only in the past for people who are addicted to drugs. 

Addiction can affect anybody, who gambles. But not all will be able to overcome the trouble addiction visits to the gambler. The only method could be cross addiction, but it's very difficult to achieve in gambling. However, one needs to begin from somewhere when healing a gambling addict. The addict has no strength in healing himself, like any other sick person. He'll need the help of close friends, to deal with his problem gambling. So, it's not easy to get passed the trouble gambling can put on a gambler. The whole healing process is quite ambiguous that nobody can detect what actually works in saving an addicted person. Even when they're ready to change, some countervailing forces begin to erupt from the person. He start looking for ways to avoid treatment. All these reactions from the addicted person may not be done willingly, but out of his sick mind, he thinks his helpers are not doing enough to save him.

When you do already make yourself that already addicted with gambling then this is the time that you would really be finding yourself on doing things on which arent supposed to be done.
Quitting gambling is never been simple specially on the time that you are already that addicted to it on which you would really be that having those struggles when it comes to
quitting completely because once you dont be able to control your mind and emotions on quitting then you would definitely fail. Some do even messed up their lives before
they would really be making out those realizations and there are ones who would really be that only minding on the time that they would really be experiencing those hurdles.

The gambler who use the income from the all the sources to the gambling to multiple means,he was in the gambling addiction.Because the gambling addiction was hard to retrieve from the full gambling addiction.The gambler who want to get away from the gambling addiction should do the physical games like cricket or football.So his mind slowly get away from the gambling addicted and the physical game also important one for the physical health of the gamblers.The gamblers can stop the gambling addiction by the slower process,they should reduce the usage of gambling money to avoid of big loss due to the gambling addiction.

Well, sometimes there are things that are very difficult to do, including leaving the game just like that, I'm not the one to tell someone what they have to do, how they should do it and how they can execute things, I just I tend to think that when a person is very into the game and just wants to play, they have to put a stop to their activity, especially if they are active, it takes the money out of their mask, I am a person who when they do things in a casino sitie e have to be very measured, I can't do them just to do them, it has to be well measured, I can't invent and do things like crazy, especially with money, I'm a person who with money I'm very careful, because when I was learning about the casinos and all this I never had anyone who told me about putting in money willing to lose, or anything about waiting as long as necessary until I had more money for another game session, about putting only Money like that is something he had to learn and not in the game, he learned it in trading.

So there are many things that I learned in trading that are applicable to me in gambling, so this means that anyone cannot fall into addiction or go for it, because the greatest of the problems of a person addicted to money, when money runs out, everything ends, everything ended there, there is nothing to do, then if we know how to manage our money, then we will be doing things well, and there is nothing we can do afterwards, because it will end in money If we accept it, it is the right thing to do, if we assume the truth is the right thing to do, there is no other way, that is what a mature judge does, and what a confident trader obviously does, the one who cannot understand something like that, well You will always have losses and you will have ways of doing things differently, losing much more than you can gain.

If a person finds it difficult to stop his gambling activities and tends to want to continue gambling, that is a sign that he is starting to become addicted to gambling. With the signs before that, he already feels that something has changed about him. He should immediately try to reduce his gambling activities before everything changes because when someone is addicted to gambling, he will not be able to see other things and will tend just to gamble.

And people who are addicted to gambling will not find it easy to stop their gambling activities. They will instead continue their gambling activities because that has become their priority, and they do not want to do other things. If you are starting to feel that you are too involved in gambling, you should start reducing your gambling activities before you really get too far into gambling.

Just because you can, it doesn't mean everyone else can. Brains can act very differently and can be wired differently when it comes to need of dopamine, and while rational thinking help, it doesn't always help. Addicts many times understand that they shouldn't do something, they just can't help themselves not to. This is why people need treatment in the first place, as without it they are taking extreme measures that doesn't make any sense to someone who has more control over their decisions.

It's true that want to be healed needs to become inside from the addict, but sometimes that's pretty much one of the few things addict can have control over to. And lots of the times addicts don't really want to heal for themselves, but the pressure and people around them. And gamblers can definitely benefit from drugs. Bupropion for example helps for all sorts of addictions. It however doesn't give a reason for people not to play, it just helps with the addiction and compulsive need for something. And Concerta can help people with ADHD to act less impulsive, stay focused and follow plans. That can be essential for fixing compulsive behavior for some people.

         -   Yes, you are right. The only scary thing about gambling is that when a gambler has an addiction, there are other casino players who become violent in their actions, sometimes even having suicidal incidents, which is not good.

But if a gambler is responsible and can manage his gambling habit correctly, I think it's fine, as long as there is no addiction in the personality of the gambler at the casino. But if you really feel like letting go of gambling, it's good to do it little by little, as much as you can.

Same with other addictions without self-will, it is difficult to remove, you can quit if you have that mindset that you want to stay away, and with the help of all people who are caring about you, that kind of struggle can be workout, to the point that you will be needing professional help, but it is indeed that self-will is always the key factor to quit away.

There are people who can quickly deal with it as the will inside them is really dominating, but for those who are heavily addicted, it's tough and there's a long process before they can let go.

​

Addicted players who don't wish to change are the hardest to heal or cure of their problem gambling. Every other addicted player can be rescued out of his gambling struggle. Families can achieve it with the collaboration of the addicted person. If he's not ready to comply. He wouldn't think of letting them know in the first instance. Addicted people have the tendency of hiding their habit from any third party, not minding if they're family or not. People don't want to be blamed for their habit. Especially when they're still comfortable with the habit. Hence a family that wishes to change a member from addiction, should be willing to engage in constant discussions with the person. The aim is to know as more information as possible in the person's life. How they discuss about gambling. They can mention about how much they spent during their last gambling session. Whether a person is known as a gambler or not. He deserves to be loved and allocated some discussion time. It matters in figuring out what the person is under passing hiddenly. The more the problem is hidden, it escalates internally in the person, thereby increasing his pains and suffering. Instead of them complying and sharing the problem with people, they'll think it's preferable than getting rejected or blamed by other people. Who may go ahead to spread the news of their ill condition. In a nutshell, our thoughts are different.

Gambling is an activity that involves taking risks and betting money or other assets on an uncertain outcome. Gambling may be an exciting and exciting experience at first, but it can quickly become destructive to lives and personal relationships.Stopping gambling is not an easy process at all. You may find yourself stuck in a spiral of addiction and debt, and don't know how to overcome this huge challenge. You may want to continue for another dose of thrill and a chance to make up the money you lost, but the painful truth is that gambling will only provide you with more losses.

However, this does not mean that stopping gambling is impossible. You have to start by taking responsibility and admitting that you have a problem. It is essential to seek help and support from professionals who specialize in addiction and psychotherapy. It can be difficult for an individual to decide to stop gambling, so support and engagement with people who understand your problems provides a safe space to heal and discuss the challenges you face.You may experience setbacks and find it difficult to keep going, but by continuing to strive toward wellness, you will discover that there is a better life waiting for you outside of gambling. Don't let gambling control your life, but make the bold decision to stop and regain your freedom and inner peace.

It takes quite a long process, because addiction is one of the diseases that exist in a person's mind that has a direct relationship with what they want, I mean one of the things that makes addiction difficult to overcome is because they like the gambling activities they do even though basically it makes them experience downturns in everything, especially money. Basically addiction can be very difficult to overcome and can also be quite easy to cure, all of this depends on themselves whether they want a change for the better or not, so actually this is a choice and on the other hand I'm sure all of the addicts don't want all the problems to come to them and that means a change in mindset is needed to solve this problem.

If we look at the scenario, it is probably the same with alcoholics or drug addicts, and there is no other way to get them out of such a bad situation except for self-will and after that there is a process they have to go through, if they are addicted to drugs or alcohol then they have to reduce the amount of consumption slowly over time until finally they consider that "it doesn't matter if they don't consume it" because there is no way they can solve their dependence in a short time, and this also certainly applies to gambling addiction which also starts with awareness, openness which ultimately results in desire. On the other hand, I understand that doctors or experts can help, but especially for gambling addiction, I think it all has to start from their own desire.

Sure, addictions are by definition uncontrolable desires. It makes.me remind one occasion I talked to someone very close to me and they mentioned to me they had problems with alcohol. They described to me how alcoholism feels like: one you begin you cannot stop and feel like drinking all the alcohol in the planet of you had the chance to do so. I have never met someone seriously addicted to gambling, but I imagine it must be something similar to that kind of feeling: wanting to be able to have all the wager possible to roll dices and spin slots for the rest of the time. Reality collides with the desires of the gambler and alcoholic when they run out of money and drinks.

Also, you would be very impressed on how many people there are, which are not okey with the use of medicine or drugs to treat psychological problems, specially related to addictions. There is an inherent fear the patient could also become addicted to the medication.

Any addiction can be treated but it is very difficult, for those that have no problems with it stopping is very easy, but those which are addicted cannot do it once they begin, this is the same pattern that we see with alcoholics and drug addicts, in which they will consume those products until they die, and we have seen this with video games too as some players have played for so long that they die of exhaustion, so gamblers which are addicted need all the help they need, and if a doctor believes they need some medicine to make it easier for them to overcome the first stages of their recovery then they must use it.

Gambling is not something scary, but many people have changed to the point where they are addicted to gambling. This must be addressed immediately before things get worse and affect us mentally. If we feel that gambling does not provide any benefits for us, we better immediately stop gambling and look for other activities that can also provide entertainment for us and will not use too much to get that pleasure. Everyone who wants to stop gambling can do it easily because it depends on their intention to stop their gambling activities and do other things. But it won't be easy because people who gamble too often will find it difficult to stop their gambling activities unless they really intend to try. They can think clearly about what they have done in gambling, and they feel that they have gone too far in using gambling.

I dispute the fact about what you said about gamblers who loses bets having less interest or quitting because I've seen most gamblers losing conspicuously but rather calling it a quit they continue with the believe that they will win on several attempts and this mostly happens to people that have won before as they are always the people that believes they can win again no matter how many times they have lost but someone who is new into gambling and tried on several occasions and couldn't win can easily lose interest and maybe call it a quit because he hasn't tasted the sweet side of gambling. Yeah no body that puts sugar in their mouth and complain it is bitter so someone who plays and wins will always talk good about gambling unlike someone that have been failing on several attempts.
