Topic: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. - page 50. (Read 10434 times)

This is a topic of conversation that is quite interesting for me and also maybe many of them are curious and want to know if other people also experience the same thing as they do. Let's discuss that it's true if someone wants to stop or has the intention to stop gambling then it will come back to each person as you said. Well, it will depend on how serious they are in carrying out various ways that can make someone stop gambling. And on the other hand, it really depends on the person. I admit that to be able to stop gambling is very difficult and maybe only a few people are able to do it, I mean only some of them are able to resist all the temptations that come to them that push them to gamble, that's because everyone has desires in him and every people have different levels of curiosity, so it will be very difficult to get out of the gambling zone, especially for those who have a high level of curiosity. The lure of victory will always haunt their minds and because of that it will be very easy for them to return to gambling even though they will lose again in the end. But yeah, everything will come back, as you said, if they really have the sincerity and strong intention to stop, then maybe they will never give up on doing various ways that can give them the opportunity to get out of gambling.

Well that's true and it is in accordance with the facts that occur. Everyone has their own traits and personalities and of course this is very influential in gambling, when they play or want to get out of addiction things like this always accompany them. Previously I have also said this that everyone has different habits or different traits in any case, especially in gambling. I would say especially to those who have a personality trait that is easily provoked or provoked it is very likely to enter into addiction and also maybe they will not have the opportunity to be able to stop doing it, because curiosity and also lust will always encourage to continue doing it. I have suggested several times especially to my closest colleagues that if you want to quit or forget about gambling then you must be able to find a new activity, and if possible it must be more fun than gambling. If someone is able to find a new activity and fill all their free time with that activity then I am sure that slowly they will be able to forget about gambling. We have to remember that the urge to gamble always comes when we have a lot of free time and it's like something is pushing us to gamble. Well that's true but it will all come back to what we are talking about now, which depends on the intention and the person.

Yes, because I once had a friend who was a gambling addict and had even been assisted by a professional, but it never worked, even family support would not be able to help him, because indeed he himself had no will to stop. it's useless, it's better to let people like that feel bored and then after starting to realize that they will lose a lot of money. start helping him to stop.

It takes time to get someone to stop gambling, at least by slowly reducing gambling activities so that they are more accustomed to managing gambling time until they finally stop gambling, because basically gambling should have limitations, be it budget or time limits so you don't become addicted, because if you have being an addict is rather difficult to stop.

Of course, it's up to each person because they are in charge of their money when they gamble. Easy or hard depends on how they try to stop or eliminate their gambling habit. If he really intends to get rid of his gambling habit because it has had a bad impact on his life, he will surely try very hard to be able to do whatever is suggested to him. And actually, if he has a strong will to stop gambling, he can do it. Maybe it doesn't take long for his efforts to stop gambling.

it's up to the person if he wants to get rid of the gambling habit, it's easy for him but if the person loves gambling, it will be difficult for him to quit My answer to this question is that it depends on the person

Not all the addiction can be short out like the gambling.The gambling should need separate method compared to smoking or drinking.When you want to gamble,just try to fix the habit of going to play ground and play the real cricket at the time.This will enable you to win the gambling addiction.By this you will start to reduce the gambling addiction and the healthy life because of real game.The real game will improve your health compared to the online games.You had never mention the method which you choose to quit the smoking,it was very eager to hear you tactics to quit smoking.Because it may or mayn’t help some people to quit smoking.So can you share how you had quit the smoking habit.

But basically it has same triggers as any other addiction so you can use same methods to quit. Visualising the outcome, remembering the consiquences of spending money. And doing other, and filling your life with healthy activities that you can do when you feel the need to smoke/gamble. I have an unique trick that made me quit smoking, but i don't think that applies for anyone but me. It's just the fact that i hate the need for doing something i don't really want to do. So it starts by waiting until you don't really want to do the thing you are addicted to. I couldn't have stopped if i had a tiny bit of doubt on what i want.

Then i just focus on that and reward for myself the time and money that i have saved because of quitting.

There's always those cons and problems which really might that occur if you wont really be making yourself that mindful about the risks and really that tolerating on whatever risks that you are really that facing
specially on gambling which we know that addiction could really be able to mess up your entire financial status on which this is something that shouldnt really be done in the first place if you are really just that minding about your situation or condition. There are really just those people who are really that not mindful about on the current dealings that they are into but rather they would really be that coming after for
the result which they are thinking about winning.

On the time that gambling addiction would really be able to hit or shackled you then you would definitely be that in a tough situation on which getting out or getting rid of it would really be a huge challenge.
Gambling isnt bad as long you are really that responsible and mindful on what you are doing but if its not then expect on what are the next possible things that could happen.

It's very hard to quit the smoking after the addiction from it.Because you may have the cyclic habit of smoking,then how the possibility of quit the smoking.Once the smoker get the cough he will try to quit the smoking for certain period of time.But the same will be changed and the smoker will start to smoke again.

Gambling also work in the same way,because you can quit the gambling for certain period of time.When new gambling sites with more bonus and feature come,you will automatically join the gambling site and play the game.This was the repeated act of the gamblers from the old times.

I'm on my way to quit smoking as well but it's just not making me stop when I see no one is at home. I still sneak out to the store and hide a pack inside my drawer. It's hard when I still enjoys doing it. But I can stop whenever I have flu and coughing. That's the difference. 

What a gambler needs to be able to quit instantly is an unexpected event that will make him stop for a long time and when he is able to resume he will lose his interest and example I think is going to prison 

Everyone has a different mentality, that's why it all depends on the person, if you want to stop or reduce gambling activities, you should start by not accessing any gambling sites or avoiding things that contain gambling, for example, if you are used to playing gambling on the internet, at least disconnect the internet and stay away from cellphones are also laptops so that you don't have the desire to access them.

But it all has to be driven from intention because without intention it will not work after all even so it depends on how the person wants to quit, if he has a high desire to quit I'm sure he can, because I was once a cigarette addict and it's hard for me to quit smoking unless I have a high intention to quit, even now I have quit smoking, success depends on the level of intention itself.

I guess the internet have opened us up to a lot of chance and freedom to take individual responsibilities of what we allow and how we set the limits to our daily activities,  there os no doubt that there are somethings that the environment can influence such as some learning a new language,  if you find yourself leaving amid other natives you may be easily influenced into learning and speaking the language the natives are speaking otherwise you won't be able to communicate with them so the environment can influence such characters.

But in gambling where we have the internet which is a global village itself, making it easily available to access any casino,  gamblers are left with the option of controlling their activities themselves and this is what is likely the best way to quit an addiction is by self-restrictions.

You have spoken the truth my friend, it's exactly what I was pointing at in my comment you quoted above, gone are the days when environment was the only factor that determined whether a gambler is able to quit or not, with online gambling becoming even more popular this days than their offline counterparts, online gambling casino ads are every where on the internet, so even if a gambler decides to change or leave an environment due to heavy gambling influence in that environment, the gambler also cannot leave or run away from the internet..

So in such circumstances, personal decision has become to most effective way of quitting gambling, environment still plays a roll but no longer a major roll, he or she who wants to quit gambling must make the decision to do so, and gather the mental and emotional strength needed to stand by that decision, else it's just gonna be "quit today, come back tomorrow".

It would be rules for common gambler without problems. For me(for example) there is no problem to stop gambling even if i have enough money on deposit. But the gambler that can`t stop - mustn`t have more money than he ready to lose. 
And i can`t agree with your second rule. Trying to win big prize is normal, but only when it doesn`t repeat after loses again and again.

wrong in that mate, I think you are not really a gambler or never become addicted.
because this is depending in about the level of gamblers you are.

if you are just occassional gambler then indeed that you can just quit easily ,

but if you are addicted ? how can you measure its addictions and the desire to quit?

have met addicted gambler and I know how hard it is.

I think that it is the circle of friends that plays a very important role in the question of how difficult or easy it is for a person to stop gambling.  His image in their eyes depends on the people around him, and many of his friends may not understand and wonder why and for what reason this player refuses to gamble.  And in the company of other players, such a player will immediately feel superfluous, which is very unpleasant. 
And if the player is just unemployed, which happens quite often now, then gambling is generally simply dangerous because he initially does not have the money he earned himself to place bets.  And he plays with other people's money, which he either borrows, or his relatives give him just like that, or, in the worst case, he stole it.  Naturally, such gambling cannot end well.  It is often difficult for such people to stop, especially if they become addicted to gambling.

It may be a factor in it, but again, that is really natural right now. The government is providing jobs to those unemployed, but again, not enough, as we can see that the unemployment rate keeps going up. Also, also with your company or circle of friends, you can leave them or don't hang with them if you really want to quit. Though that is where the difficult words begin, there are tons of factors that affect you, such as just browsing social media and seeing an ad about gambling, which again factors into the fact that you can't quit and play it again. It is really a matter of discipline and controlling yourself.

Maybe he can move from the old neighbourhood to a new one to escape the influence of people still gambling in his old environment. This is necessary so he doesn't associate with those people and can also focus on healing his addiction. Usually, that is what many people suggest to people addicted to gambling or others so that they can build new habits without any interference from people who are still doing old habits. But it takes a big struggle to move to a new environment because he has to open up and adapt to the people around him. Thus, he can gain new experiences that will be useful for him in healing his gambling addiction.

If he can't move to a new environment, he must control himself and have the courage to say no if someone around him asks him to return to his old habits. But usually, a person will gradually return to his old habits if his environment can invite him and give him something more interesting. This will certainly affect his gambling addiction recovery process because he has to struggle to stick with his new habits and leave his old ones. And only with a strong determination to leave his old habits can make him continue with his new habits to recover from his gambling addiction.

If they are not too deep or have been playing gambling for too long, maybe it won't be too difficult. But the problem is when they have found pleasure in playing gambling, they can come back to find other pleasurable experiences. And that is what triggers them to feel addicted to gambling so they cannot control themselves and if they want to stop gambling, they will find it difficult to leave what they have been doing.

So they need strong controls to moderate their gambling games so they don't overdo it and can enter and exit gambling whenever they want. They will not become addicted to gambling because they already have strong reasons only to make gambling as entertainment. And they can also leave gambling for a few days because other activities require their presence so that they can divert their attention to other things.

Easy or hard ? It it depends on the person because if he wants to get rid of his gambling habit he can do it but if he really doesn't like and loves gambling, it can be said if he has a hard time quitting gambling

Whenever money arrives to a person, it happens that that person is free to spend it, if they want to spend it in a casino that's fine, if they want to spend it in any other case, that's their problem, but what should be understood is that a habit has already been created, things go more for what they want or what they want to do, there is nothing else there, in the game, regardless of age, anyone can become addicted and they can do things that they did not do before, sacrifices or even some who are so addicted to casino do not eat because that money is used to bet in the casino and that is something that happens in most cases.

Age in this case does not matter, there are young people who are addicted and are very young, even so they suffer from addiction problems that do not let them live their lives in peace, and they can do many things, but here who has to act correctly is the person who is sending the money, to ask what the money is spent on, to show him, with so much technology out there , a video call or something is enough, you always have to be very aware, when a person is older you have to be more pending because things with the elderly may have someone who disrespects them or worse still takes advantage of them, in this case it is not like that, but the woman must have more supervision.

The fact that money is sent, with a lot or little Effort, is something that has to be seen as a nice gesture and for it to be totally complete, you should at least ask, or have a special person inform you of what has been spent your money, because I am sure that you will stop buying basic things just or play in a casino, I agree that you play in a casino, but that it is not the full money, because it is easy for you to lose it, that you have a small amount of space play , so you don't get out of line with your things and you can enjoy the game , sometimes playing with little money is exciting, and first play in demo mode so that you can have more experience when playing with real money, otherwise all the money they send you It will be for the Casino..
