do all sorts of things for it to happen.Dont just simply ignore because when addiction had consumed you then its really hard to solve it out on your own.

This is really true because an addicted person in gambling would only stop if he losses all his money, no satisfaction when winning because of greediness, and still greediness to not accept losses, instead, they'll bet more to recover without thinking they're gambling aggressively already.

As a gambler, we will only suffer to a painful defeat if we can't correct our mistakes and allow our emotion to dictate us, it's okay to follow our emotion if we are having fun, but if we are serious in gambling, we should be able to control that emotion and just follow our mind always.

I don't really know if this works as I don't see any additional information on the news about this person but my guess is that it won't help a gambling addict at all. Going to a casino is not the only way to gamble since there is always a group of people who gamble by playing card games like poker, pusoy (chinese poker), cock fighting and many more. He may be banned from casino temporarily but getting rid of being a gambling addict won't be an easy task to do unless ask help from professional with or without the help/support of family.

The only way to cure addiction is to focus on something else. Like finding activity that requires focus like work, trading and anything that will keep them entertained, sadly most of the gambling addicts are those who have plenty of time to spare even they don't have a lot I money to spend they will gamble the borrowed money or properties they have. Addicts must first accept they need to change for them to help themselves.

Distract yourself into something which would really divert your attention which might cause for you to avoid gambling which is really a good thing.Of course you would really be needing

to make yourself realize first on whats the problem you are currently facing.If you are really serious on quitting gambling or trying to minimize it as possible then you should

do all sorts of things for it to happen.Dont just simply ignore because when addiction had consumed you then its really hard to solve it out on your own.

Gamblers don't realize they are addicted to gambling until it's worse which they've done unthinkable already like breaking the piggybank of his kid just so he could gamble again. But you as a gambler can also notice it to yourself before you get to the worse situation like selling valuables like jewelry so you could play again.

Is seeking a new strategy or thinking of betting while you are sleeping signs of addiction? If not, what are little signs that unfold you are becoming a gambling addict?

thinking about something before you sleep doesn't fall into the category of addiction, it's just curious
but if it can't be controlled it can become addicted and becoming a gambling addict will destroy your personal life

It's important to realize that when you lose a gamble or win big you shouldn't keep thinking about it before going to sleep
because if you keep thinking about it the brain will naturally process it and make you addicted

Quote from: bitzizzix on July 16, 2021, 07:30:14 AM

The characteristics of gambling addiction depend on how to recognize the behavior experienced, especially continuing to play without stopping and just spending time playing gambling without thinking about other needs.
and betting more than they can afford, gambling addicts often spend more money than they should and often use money to fulfill their needs and many signs of becoming a gambling addict depend on the behavior they experience, and must be controlled before more fatal self harm.

Sometimes it's hard to recognize if you are addicted because we have a big ego and we don't want to fail in gambling, it's actually other people that would notice or recognize, and if we listen, then we might be able to solve the problem when it's still early. We have to take gambling addiction seriously as it could ruin your life since your family relationship will be affected when you are in financial trouble.

What happens is that we as humans have a difficult time judging ourselves, and many times our family and our friends will have a more precise idea of who we are, which means they can see things you cannot and this means that they can see changes in your behavior that they may not associate with gambling addiction but that will put them under alert, and this tell us that if someone you appreciate says you have a problem more often than not it is true.

Therefore, the signs of gambling addiction will not be easy or even will not be known by the player. If gambling addiction can be detected early on then of course, players will take quick action to immediately reduce their activities in gambling before things get worse.

Exactly, it's better to spot someone's Gambling habits building early on rather than knowing when it's too late, It's very hard to make someone drop their habits later on when it has become a norm for them to indulge into such action.

Quote from: hahay on July 17, 2021, 02:51:47 AM

Players will usually only feel pleasure until they continue to gamble and don't think about addiction, so gambling addiction is difficult to detect and realize from the start, and unfortunately most of them end with bad stories and not a big profit.

In starting they will not think much but the profit they can make from gambling and winning will provide thrill and adrenaline rush which is quite irresistible in the beginning but when they start losing it's quite an unbearable pain in the head and chest of the person.

I have heard of such stories in the past from fellow gamblers and former gamblers when I was in church before and our pastor talked about gambling. Anyway based on those stories I have heard from testimonials from other people, what attracts them to continue pouring money in the game is when they win and they were able to win so much that they continue to play and they do not have the urge to stop and gamble for another day. It is sad if you think about it.

When you savor winning and with amounts that you can't believe, that's going to keep you continuously in gambling. Those testimonials that you've heard, they really were addicted gamblers and good thing that they've found the help from the church that you attend and it helped them to relax their minds and made them realize that it's a bad habit that there's no one that can stop them. And the mindset that they have is to keep on winning since they've already have felt the joy of winning and the amount of money that they can get from it.

Obviously he is from some developed country. In countries like my gambling addiction, if it is considered a disease, then no methods of treatment or something similar are offered. It is believed that this is a personal problem of a person and if you go to a hospital (public) with such a problem, you simply will not be taken seriously. So I must admit that he was lucky in some ways.

developed countries have more facilities than poor or developing countries in helping citizens overcome their gambling addiction...

in my city gambling addiction is not a serious thing because my city still prohibits gambling business strictly but among 1000 gamblers there must be one who is addicted. someone who is addicted to gambling in my city has to spend personal money to go to a psychiatrist.

We can say that in poor countries the best treatment is a ban Grin

Which unfortunately applies to healthy people also. It should be noted that although this reduces the number of gamblers, this approach also has huge negative sides - the restriction of freedom and the criminalization of this business.

Agree a lot of gambling business will operate illegaly and in underground. Though a ban is really a good thing to stop to be addicted but i think people are going to find ways to play although it could be illegally. I dont know if you could assess your self that you are already addicted to gambling because you are just thinking that it is your normal routine unless someone or your relatives are telling you about your doings.

I think most of us are just going to think it's normal just as we got addicted to riding our bikes after we learned it when we were kids. But that was something that isn't affecting, unlike gambling addiction.

If a person got caught over and over but will still seek ways to play even when it's illegal in their state, it's sure an addiction. It doesn't matter anymore if he does it for a money source. This is worse already. His early signs could be seen while he plays in hiding with friends.

Yes, it is an indication of gambling addiction if you are unconcerned about the consequences of your actions. Most of us do not believe this since we have a gambling addiction and only want to play and play without considering whether or not we are still financially sound.

In such a scenario, many of those who become addicted to gambling lose a lot of money, and it has a mental, emotional, and occasionally physical impact on them if they become violent as a result of their addiction.

True! even there's restrictions gambling addicted person will always find ways to continue playing.
And it's not impossible since there are many alernative ways.

Online gambling offers a lots of digital ways and even banking system is no longer hard to interconnect with those gambling sites.

I mean, you can easily transfer balance from your online account to any digital payment transaction that you choose to play your
favorite games.

Most of the time they can find a huge list of alternatives if they really want to play, I remember back in the few years where the pandemic was in its early stage, they were prohibited from doing cockfighting. Instead, they used Beta Fish to suffice their hunger from gambling and managed to bet even though the fight usually takes hours to have a result. That's how they were desperate to back then. If it's not called Addiction, then I don't what the right word to call that.

We are from the same country, but seems that you did not notice that there are hundreds online casino that accepts our local money as payment methods and there are still so many people are playing gambling every single day on that online casinos.
Addiction, whether it is a serious thing or not is not based on our own assumption or based on the local government rules.
Gambling addiction is always a serious thing for the gamblers as even if gambling is illegal then those who are addicted will always find a way to gamble.

The signs of gambling addition vary from every individual as its manifestations are also different depending on their respective circumstances.

Generally, people who suffer from gambling addiction exhaust almost of their resources into gambling. They also tend to have a poor hygiene, health, and lifestyle since their priority is to gamble away. I have personally seen people who suffer from gambling addiction in casinos. You can clearly observe that they tend to be very nervous and stressed at the same time.

I remember watching someone bet like $2,000 on the roulette and he lost. After that, he just went outside and started selling his watch to a random stranger (which turned out to be my friend) for a very cheap price.

Perhaps this problem has no solution - if a person has decided to be a hermit (socially), then you should not interfere with his choice. In the end, the risks of being alone are quite high, even if you do not take into account gambling addiction and it is the responsibility of a person to take them upon himself or not.

If he decided to be a hermit, he will not socialize with others or communicate with others Grin

If he decides to live alone by himself, he will still meet others, making him have a relationship with that person or people. We never know as we are not in that situation and hopefully, we will never be like that because socializing and having relationships will be better. So if we have a problem, they can help us or ask us. But hopefully, there is a solution to get out of that.

By the way, the hermit lifestyle is a rather serious problem. As we saw because of the lockdown, a lot of people began to live in something like this and now we see the results of this: all statistics on suicide, drug use and death from them show tremendous growth. Although perhaps this is due to the fact that this hermitage was forced and not voluntary.

Probably this is a problem of a high standard of living (paradoxically) people do not really need anyone and they may well live alone, therefore a small number of common interests and affairs leads to what you described. But after they find themselves alone, the danger of a variety of addictions will increase. In fact, I have no idea how this problem can be solved.

It could be. But even if they think that they do not need others, the fact is they still need others. They can hide their problem from others, but they can not hide them forever. Sooner or later, their closest people will know and will help them if they needed. I even do not know how it can be solved but I am sure there will be a way to solve it. Maybe it need a right time to get the answer.

Anything that is desired and tasted, becomes an addicted. Yes one can limit themselves by controlling desires, though its really challenging, it would become easier to avoid falling into addiction. Many have lost but yes many have succeeded. Its better to realize what they are before pitching into. Self control only can heal addiction.

I do agree, only self control would be able to heal addiction but many people cannot achieve this since they are addicted only self realization or probably help from others would help the addicted players to overcome his addiction. I for once getting close to being addicted to sports betting but I managed to control my desire once I realized that I almost lost all my savings money.

Well, that's the most good way to make a gambling addict to stop gambling or control their urge to gamble. I have seen a television news in my country on 2017 where a gambling addict ask the gaming corporation to banned him for months or years from entering any established casino. It just proves that even if you are a gambling addict, you can find a way to control your urge to gamble if that person is desperate to stop being a gambling addict. I don't see any information though j whether that person have family support or not and of he did go to a rehabilitationcenter but good for him to make a decision like that.

I'm really curious to know if this technique actually worked. Did it?
Well, one thing i know for sure is this, if your really addicted to a thing, not even a ban can keep you away form it. Take cryptocurrency for an example, some nations have taken turns to ensure the inoperative of cryptos within there jurisdiction but then, crypyo enthusiast always seeks out the loopholes in the system and exploit it. Its the way things are in our world, a ban doesn't change things a lot, especially things that have got to do with freewill for the determined.
Only you can stop yourself. You've got to tag it a bad thing or something that is of no benefit to you and it just might stay as such. Seeking therapy and yet not being willing to practice what the therapist is telling you without being compelled to do so, its no solution at all. Its hot to be you who stops you even with help.

And getting help from professional who assess and really do the help for those addicted gamblers. They're the best ones to get some help if there's no family or friends that you can get close.
But having some support from any or both of those parties will really help you to comeback to your normal state and get rid of that addiction.
