Can I ask what made you make that change?

I wanted to do something else. The affiliate business didn't make me happy. Then, a friend suggested that I should help people instead, and something sparked in me. It was a challenge, and I quickly realized there was so much more to addiction than I had thought before.

I wonder how effective this program is. Have there been any testimonies from addicted gamblers who were helped by your platform?

This is free, as you mentioned, so I'm curious about its effectiveness. Gambling addiction is a serious issue and often requires expensive sessions to address. I appreciate the effort, though. I'll explore your website to gather more information, but I don't need help right now. Hopefully, I won't need it in the future.

We have many happy members on the platform. The most common comment is that they don't feel alone anymore. Other comments on the benefit of putting addiction in a new light. For instance how QuitGamble focuses on the underlying causes of the addiction (what gambling is doing for the person, rather than just trying to stay away from gambling.) I hope to get many more comments and testimonials in the future.

That is a good approach to cover the topic of addictions because having a single dimensional focus in approach to treating addictions could result into failure of the total structure, so for you to have covered a wide arrange of another aspect as important as clarifying the positive aspect of gambling and not focusing on battling against gambling addiction in a straight away manner.

We will give this topic our holistic attention and contribute to this discussion as we progress, wish you guys the best of times around here.

Did you see the URL? QuitGamble.com Which means you should quit gambling.

Yep, it depends on the owner who create this site too.

If they're someone who really hate gambling because it's bad, forbidden by many countries and religion, there's no problem to use quitgamble domain.

But if they're someone who being neutral or even support gambling, they should use a better domain e.g. gamblehelp, gambleguide, gamblecontrol, stopaddiction etc.

What I see the domain and content are contradicts each other.

We chose the domain because the platform and website focus on helping people who want to stop gambling. We don't condemn gambling, it's up to each individual if they want to gamble or not. (It was an added bonus that QuitGamble.com was available.

Sincerely, I looked over the platform and found that the goals are commendable. Others believe it is inconceivable that you could demonstrate, in any way, using this platform, what can be done when one is addicted to gambling.

Additionally, it appears that the platform's theme is sound, and it is open to hearing about any and all stories from gamblers in the cryptocurrency area; it appears that they wish to be involved in it in some way.

Thanks for the kind words! It's fantastic what words can mean sometimes.

If you're curious about our project, please feel free to reach out. I would be happy to receive any feedback, both positive and negative. If you have a gambling problem, I would recommend you take a look at our how to stop gambling addiction guide. It's a step-by-step process that will put you on a new track.

I just read the whole thing about how to stop gambling by following a few steps and it's good that everything is written in detail and also added a video as a sweetener, but I don't care whether this can help addicted and problem gamblers or not, what is clear is your goal in introducing the site You are on this forum to help gambling addicts and problem gamblers, which is very good because to be honest, we don't see many sites like this, let alone providing help for free.

I would love to see how your site works fully and I would like to see many more positive feedbacks about the services you provide to gambling addicts, I will wait for some of the community from this forum who feel they are gambling addicts or have problems in gambling, will they try your site and succeed with the services you provide. Btw welcome to the forum

Thank you! I appreciate your kind words. Let me know if we can do anything for you guys at Stake. We have some collaborations with companies like Kindred and LL Europe where they recommend us to customers via their responsible gambling pages.

I just do not understand how a website may help you get rid of a gambling addiction. The people who are addicted to gambling, I am sure their family and friends must have asked to stop the gambling frequency. The people near the gambling addcited must have tried to stop the person from addiction but to no avail. So how come a text website will be able to help get rid of gambling addiction???

Thanks for the feedback! The platform is based on escape theory. We believe gambling is doing something for the person, that's why it's so hard to stop (if you want to stop). For instance. Many gamble when they feel bored or lonely, because gambling is exceptionally good at distracting you. When you gamble, you don't feel lonely anymore. It's the escape that is addictive, not the gamble by itself.

On the members pages, we have developed video courses. In the video courses, we use CBT to help people overcome the different areas in their life that cause them pain. For instance, we have courses in handling loneliness, boredom, stress, lack of meaning, and worries about health.

We don't try to compete with Gamblers Anonymous or psychologists, instead, we offer an alternative. Something that is available 24/7 worldwide. Currently, we have members in 110+ countries.

In general, the website has useful information but certainly requires more tests, questionnaires, and content.

Thanks for the comment. On the members pages, the courses, most videos, and the community are available. The Happiness Test is available without signing up though.

First, let me say welcome to the forum even though you've been here for a while, but then, this is probably the first time I am coming across your post on the forum, so welcome once again.

Infact, this is actually a very good project for the gambling community, most especially when we have problems gamblers every where looking and seeking for help, I personally like the fact that you guys decided to make everything in the site free of charge, atleast with this, no addicted gambler have any excuse as to why they cannot access help.

One question I have for the op is, is the mobile app available on google play store?, I will love to try the app out. Anyways, I will be following the project through this forum and thread from now on, kudos to you and every other person involved in the project.

Good to see that there is now a resource that admitted problem gamblers can use to turn things around. Credits to you for creating this project and I hope that it is a success in the purpose it is aimed to serve!

Previously no one took gambling addiction seriously and everyone was of the point of view that gambling addicts should come up with ways to reduce gambling and engage in other healthy activities. Of course, this is not easy and if it was easy to move away from gambling, no one would be addicted to gambling.

With the introduction of such sites, at least people will realize that addiction of gambling is like a disease that needs a medical solution and it is something that can't be ignored.

Such sites will bring this issue on the table, the people will take it seriously and eventually, we will have gambling addiction rehabilitation centers online or offline.

So even though if the site, and the activities within it as listed by the ops aren't able to change your addictions state, you should be able to at least figure out one or two features that will help you in your personal quest to kill gambling addictions.

As we know that any method will not be able to stop someone's addiction if that person does not have the confidence in themselves to reduce their gambling or stop gambling, to be honest it is very difficult to fight the feeling to stop gambling, it takes time because of the level of that person's addiction. different ones are not always the same, for addicts who have a high level of difficulty it will take a lot of time to stop, in contrast to gambling addicts with a lower level it will not take long to cure them.

But there are several features there that might be a reference to start with, even if using the site doesn't change the situation, at least find out about yourself what the level of addiction is then slowly reduce it continuously like my friend did. He managed to cure his gambling addiction because he started by reducing his gambling time. and desire and strong determination. it becomes a weapon to convince yourself to succeed. Wink

The two links you provided they are all nice. You really break down the steps to stop gambling addiction but there is one that you didn't mention from the guides or the steps. Most people involved in gambling from the onset because there was no any other work or job for them to do so they see gambling as a part time job. I can still vividly remember in 2018, in one the compound I had lived, and the youth in that community were saying that "Thank God that they brought gambling because there is no any other job to do", then I quickly recalled that "so it is because there is no job for them to do, that is why they are gambling", the job is government and not manual jobs. Those are some of the things that were making them to join gambling.

I skim through the site and the method for solving addiction is to attack the "pain" which causes a person to gamble in the first place. The less you feel the "pain" then the less likely one to gamble and be addicted to it. It's a personal development in a way with a specific purpose so I guess that's not a bad way to approach it.

The thing there is personal discipline and following principles, this is so important that tou as a gambler holds 90% of the solution to the problem and instead looking for a solution from external places, you should,, first of all be able to tell yourself the truth, after you have measured your level of involvement in the act and making up your mind to quit, regardless.

So even though if the site, and the activities within it as listed by the ops aren't able to change your addictions state, you should be able to at least figure out one or two features that will help you in your personal quest to kill gambling addictions.

This is very interesting. I have seen lots of threads here talking about gambling addiction and how to stop it but for the first time I am seeing a website fully dedicated to the course of stopping gambling addiction. Gambling addiction has eaten deep into gamblers that they can not control themselves anymore. It is obvious that some addicted gamblers do undergo therapy before they could be able to break out of gambling addiction and some too even after undergoing therapy, they still see themselves addicted but however OP have fully shown how dedicated he or is to Stop gambling addiction by coming up so this project. I believe addicted gamblers would see this and make use of the opportunity to aid themselves in following the steps provided on the website to ease to ease their gambling addiction.

hence, this site may come in handy for those gamblers here who want to address their addiction for free or those gamblers who are on the verge of addiction. better take care of it early rather than when you are already too deep in your troubles.
as the thread says, free help, so hopefully it will attract gamblers here that are asking for this kind of support. as you said, there are so many threads here already discussing about addiction. so yeah, time to have that kind of free service for these people.

Yes, its free and its not something that you arent that forced to make use of it but this kind of step or move made by OP is really that something that deserved merit and commendation.
Its totally unlikely or really that not common on seeing free service nowadays on which if there's someone bothered up and making something for the benefit of these gambling addicts then
it is really just that good to know that there are ones who do give that kind of importance on how to resolve out such problem. Most of people on this thread do really tells
about on for it not to work on which there's a point but its not bad to make out these kind of steps either.

Others might not appreciate this type of help that you're doing but you're doing something that will help those that are in dire need of being an addicted gambler.

It's all for free and they will have someone to talk to if they want to at least on chat to maintain their anonymity because most of these gamblers don't want to let others know who they are.

@OP, you're doing a good job with this advocacy. Because in a business perspective, those startups that might have come up with something like this. There is for sure going to be a stream of making money but yours is free and hopefully you'll maintain that continuously and you've got a nice domain, I wonder how much you have acquired it.

...and who might be those that would be against the help of gambling addictions, other than casinos who are crossing the line of greed and disrupting responsible gambling? I would hope you are not referring to any members of the community, as that would be troubling to hear.

This topic about addiction is not an easy topic, addiction is a disease that destroys the life of the addicted person and all other people who are close to the addicted person. Although I congratulate the efforts of your website, still in my opinion just using your website will not be enough for addicted people to cure their addiction. This is because unlike what your website says that to cure addiction you need to achieve happiness, in my opinion for people to cure addiction they need to be admitted to the hospital and away from anything that is making them addicted. for example in the case of a person addicted to gambling

This person needs to be admitted to a hospital, without a telephone, without internet access and without access to any game for months, this person will need to do other things to have fun, only after many months will this person be cured of the addiction. Now, if a person addicted to gambling has a phone with internet access and doesn't go to the hospital and stays on your website, that person won't be cured. that person will continue playing and will destroy his life, as long as an addicted person has access to the thing that causes him addiction, he will never stop the addiction
