How do you guys manage to take a break in gambling? I’m not asking for advice but rather I’m just interested to know what you are doing on your own or if you really do a break.

I recently decided to take a break since I want to hold my crypto due to its increasing value and I don’t to spend it while it’s giving me passive profit. I just claiming bonus now or anything that is free to still enjoy gambling without risking my money.

What is the instances that makes you take a break in gambling?

I have been into gambling for 15 years now and in between I have taken breaks from gambling. I have had different reasons for taking breaks. First, when I don't have so much money I take a pause. I don't believe in gambling to enlarge my income so when I am not prepared for a loss I don`t gamble because it will be difficult for me to get over the loss. Also, I am into sports betting focusing on England's Premier League, Spain's La Liga, Germany's Bundesliga and Italy's Serie A and so when these leagues are on break I also go on break. I don`t try to gamble on other leagues. In addition, whenever I record so much loss, I don`t try chasing those losses rather I go on break. Furthermore, there are times when I get too busy with my job and so during this time I don't involved in gambling activity.

I just delete all the gambling apps and clear the data on my browsers so I automatically log out from my gambling accounts. I don't know if this will work on any other people out here but if you have other hobbies besides the usual gambling and computer games, you can actually use those hobbies as an excuse to pass the time so you can stay away from gambling. I believe that the best way for you to take a break from gambling is to get busy in other things, same way that I did when I was heartbroken, just do something new everyday or get back to your hobbies and it will help your mind be occupied and it did help a lot and trust me that there will come a time when you're not even want to go back to gambling anymore because you're so preoccupied with the hobbies.

I did it in the past when I played poker. I take it break for a while, I have to save my money for some reason. How?, I just downloaded the poker games on Android, so when one day I felt like I had to gamble, I just played that games. Just easy like that, but you know, it's not as interesting as when we play real poker, but it could be a diversion and can make you calm down a little bit to play gambling. Apart from that, do lots of exercise like sport or reading some book.

Gambling is not something I do by spending too much time and too much money so I think that I do not need to take a break. I can start and stop at anytime I want, I do not need to wait for specific instance to stop or to take a break. I will stop once I get I nice win and I can stay away for a while to spend my winnings in real life for several days. Other condition that make me stop is when I feel that I'm in a bad luck. All in all, I do not need to have other instances out of my gambling activity such as to hold my crypto because I have separated funds for different activity.

I place daily limits on my gains and losses. This way I didn't wear myself out in any way and I can still continue playing without too many problems! Because I believe that if the user stops playing out of nowhere, it will cause even more damage.

The thing that makes me stop gambling is when I have dependents or have urgent needs so I will stop gambling for a while and prioritize my needs first before deciding to gamble. When I gamble I always use money that is really loose so that I don't worry if I lose or experience losses, apart from that I can limit my spending so that it doesn't go too far so that my financial management system is not disturbed and remains stable and can enjoy gambling even with little money small because for me spending big money actually becomes a high risk for me if I am not willing to lose.

There a many things that could make you as a gambler to take a break from gambling these can be voluntary or involuntary circumstances and admittedly you will have no other option but to take a break.

I noticed a colleague of mine who some times gives me update on certain games, then after his wife gave birth within those period  I wasn't forth hearing from him I had to reach him own my to inquire why he sudden went low, he told me he had to take a break from gambling since his wife just gave birth he should use that time he spent on gambling on his wife and his new born baby. And all I could reply him was Okay and that's because his reason was so beautiful to me.

There are reasons that make you take break from gambling and due to how important it is you wouldn't have issues struggling with it.

I only managed to take a break if I don't have money left to gamble lol. That's the only time I will be able to stop because nothing I can do.

When monthly due now came, I can't found a way to gamble because I need to settle my bills first.

After a week, I do now have some extra, chances of returning to gambling will now be commenced. Smiley

Well, I usually gambled a lot up until 2022; I just reduced my frequency of gambling. I don't call it a brake, but I just got too occupied with other more serious things that can provide a consistent and sustainable income.

If you want to save some money and take a break from gambling, just make a decision and discipline yourself, and you will get a result. Normally, it will be difficult but you just have to make a choice either to save or to enjoy fun and risk to lose because you are not guaranteed of winning.

After a series of continuous losing streaks, it now become my habit to take a break from gambling. This is to give time for my account to refresh everything, and also for me as a gambler. I don't need to push for a win if there's currently a losing streak happening.

Keeping busy with other activities is one of my ways. After 3 days of taking a break, I will try again if my luck will now associate me.

Gambling doesn't take much of my day, that I will say let me take a break from it since it is consuming much of my time. Gambling is what I do when I am less busy, and I feel like gambling for fun or luck.

Anyway, I don't intend to take a break from gambling because I have other commitments that take up more of my time than gambling. However, my time involvement in gambling is a once-in-a-while kind of thing

Edited out

if you feel you need to pause your games, then pause by all means. because you are the one who knows your real financial situation and taking a break will give you time to assess your situation as well. it is also a good time to contemplate your goals why you are getting into this addictive activity. check and balance is needed to keep track on your gambling activities

this period will also give yourself to refresh and be clear with your goals and see where you are heading to when it comes to your gambling lifestyle.

There is always schedules for my gambling in as much that I am not a gambling addict. I do have gambling budgets in other to maintain a good bankroll and so also, I could concentrate to other of situations aside my gambling life. Sincerely, my gambling lines is specifically for fun and of which I can't trade my tangible times for it so I just give it to break to attend to others that matter

unfortunately, not all gamblers can contain their gambling desires. so be thankful that you can still manage your gambling activities and set your boundaries. so long you can keep at it, you won't have financial problems regarding gambling.
There is a need to always watch out for how we exude our time while gambling because the a need to take some break at some point to help you to readjust and strategize to make better gambling decisions and be able to monitor and control the gambling involvement.

So taking a time limit and also money limits,  such as pausing for a while before continuing,  so for a better refocus there is a need to take a sear back at some point.

Honestly, I believe that it is necessary to have "constancy" in games.
Just as I don't think it's right for people to spend all their excess money on gambling, I also don't think it's right for them to stop temporarily completely.
Why? because that person, most likely, when they return to playing will be very excited and will spend more money than they should.
Worse still, she may be disappointed with the terrible results of the game (if she makes bad choices or is very unlucky) and thinks: "did I sit still for so long to be disappointed in the game like that? I wish I was having fun!" so she bets even more to suppress this pleasure deficit.

Anyway, if a person plays responsibly, only with the money they earn and still manages to save a little, why stop playing?

The break can be useful in the case of addicted people, who need to stop to analyze their actions, seek advice and gradually resume, with the game under control.

Sure, i have taken several breaks for various reasons. I took a break when i had better success rate by investing to random new microcap altcoins. It was sort of gambling as well though, even if it wasn't trough casinos. Few times i have taken a break when i gambled more than i planned. I wanted to punish myself and set a clear line that i can't cross. During that time i almost lost my house so i needed to take a good look at the mirror.

And sometimes i take a break from certain type of gambling, like live sports, poker,  slots and even crypto trading, or where ever i am having a losing streak.

Have a regular and sustainable source of income,
Have plans for every money you’ve got and
Redefine your purpose for gambling.

Maybe it would start with you building a mindset that, it’s not entirely good for you. This will gradually push you into defense mood or should I say, safe mood. You wouldn’t want to gamble because you want to make money, you wouldn’t see the need to gamble every other day.
You will only gamble because the opportunity presented itself and you just want to have that fun in that moment with nothing more.
You’ll find yourself in charge of your gambling habit.

 - I uninstall the gambling app on my phone
 - I encourage myself not to open gambling sites for a certain period
 - changing hobbies like sports

It is to be found hard for other gamblers but it was easy for me because I'm not a frequent gambler. It really depends on us on how to adjust and manage our time in gambling and I know we can do it if our mind isn't just focused on gambling. If I go home, I keep myself away from gadgets where I have access to the internet which I see as an effective strategy.

Nothing really special but just forcing myself to do so. There's no choice but to force myself to take a break from gambling.

Look for other activities aside from gambling that can make you busy or focus on your day job and try to be productive there.

You can also consider hanging out with your families and friends and enjoy the upcoming weekend or holidays.

It's really healthy to take a breather from time to time.  Otherwise ypu start making stupid decisions.  I try to look at my bets after they have either won or lost and assess if it was rational or not to make that bet.  When I see myself veering away from my normal betting patterns I take a breather.  In terms of what else to do, plenty!  Just pick up one of your other hobbies and go enjoy yourself. 
If from me there is a hobby that can forget about gambling for a moment, that is fishing. I think there are quite a lot of people here who like fishing because the tranquility of looking at the lake or ocean can calm the mind and also provide entertainment if you catch a big fish. By fishing, I can often forget about life's problems, including losing at gambling, and when I return from fishing, my brain can always be fresh.

I prepare for when I want to take a break. Most of the time there's this nagging feeling of just wanting to take a break but not really having enough heart and willpower to do it. But when the stars align and I find myself wanting to take a breather away from the world of gambling I go for it and formulate a couple things before I bite the bullet. First, I make sure that I will definitely take the breather for the specific timeframe that I provide myself with. Let's say I got an out-of-town vacation trip planned for two weeks and I take the timeframe as a solid schedule to align my gambling breaks with, I make sure first and foremost that I don't gamble at all during those times. Second, I slate something to do while I'm not gambling for that particular schedule. Could be some other game, a date, or whatever that would take my mind off of gambling for the meantime. Soon as these are all taken care of. Only then will I start to really take the break.

Not doing this out of some ritual or whatever. It's just that sometimes I find myself going back to gambling even when I say I'm gonna take a break for that particular timeframe.

Taking a break,  shouldn't be a big deal to a gambler,  this is because,  by all means possible a good gambler must also have a stop time and that is a crucial time and for that we have to take not of such a time.

It's easy as ABC because when you are gambling for the fun and entertainment,  it becomes great to explore those factors that provide you with the flexibility to escape any possible risks and losses since being excessive in gambling could lead to losses.

if you feel you need to pause your games, then pause by all means. because you are the one who knows your real financial situation and taking a break will give you time to assess your situation as well. it is also a good time to contemplate your goals why you are getting into this addictive activity. check and balance is needed to keep track on your gambling activities
