It really takes seriousness to stop gambling because it is not easy to avoid thinking about gambling, where a person will continue to be carried away by previous gambling experiences. If a person can have the firm will reduce gambling, he certainly can do it as long as he keeps practising to reduce it. Doing lots of activities will help a person slowly forget about gambling so if he can do it continuously, he can get out of gambling.
at this stage it takes a long time for gambling addicts who want to stop gambling and all of these efforts must require the support of some of the closest people such as family, relatives or partners who can help encourage them to keep trying to forget gambling. In other situations, gambling addicts must be given activities such as light work that can divert their minds from thinking about gambling, but of course they must always be encouraged.
with this effort, I believe that it is the spirit of the people closest to me that can slowly help addicts to recover soon.
I agree with your opinion and all of that, if it is based on really big intentions and determination then I am sure that even a crazy gambling addict can stop and recover from his addiction.
But the problem is there is this intention because it is difficult to have the intention and persistence to be able to stop and most gambling addicts really want to recover but when they try it they are tempted again to play games or bets that they have previously loved.

Saying how to stop gambling is easier than we imagine and of course to be able to get through all the challenges to stop is very difficult.

you can tell a person has sunken into his gambling vices if he has already done crimes like that grandpa who kidnapped a kid for ransom. it's probably not his first, he must have stolen lots before this like jewelry or so. it can be hard for this old dog to stop gambling as he is addicted. even in prison, he will still gamble that's for sure.

hard for someone to resist when he has money and can easily access a platform gamble. he doesn't just need community support but things to get busy about.


You are correct before committing such a henious crime this grandpa might have committed others which never came out in public. That is what chronic addicts do and since he was not caught previously he thought this time too he will walk away with this crime. Old man got overconfident and now will rot in jail for this crime.

It is not easy to get rid of the gambling addiction. If it was easy, then there would have been no addiction at all. It is more of a mind and psychological thing and a gambling addict needs to consult a psychologist if he is not able to get rid of this habit himself.

Usually, in our society, people deny the fact that they are gambling addicts, and even if they know it, they would hesitate to go to any psychologist to get their treatment. The gambling addicts think that he is to make money and those who are trying to stop him from gambling are his enemies.

Indeed, it would be better for us to seek various references from several people to be used as experience and reference material. There have been lots of people who have experienced downturns and bad luck in their lives because of the effects of gambling, but somehow there are still many people who do it. I realize that it is very difficult to get out of that zone and even if it can it will require quite a big struggle when someone has to fight the curiosity of their gambling addiction, and most of them cannot get past this. Be a healthy gambler, don't be too ambitious and don't ever assume that you will be able to get a lot of money just by gambling because this is really just luck that won't always come every time.
What is important is that we can distance ourselves from being addicted to gambling, especially if we have seen many people around us who have experienced many defeats at gambling. But some of them will surely be frustrated because they have suffered that defeat and still try to play gambling in the hope that they can win one day. Getting out of the gambling zone is difficult, especially if we have often played gambling before and need the practice to reduce gambling activities. However, we must try to be responsible gamblers so that we don't experience gambling addiction, which negatively impacts our lives.

The fact is that to stop completely is very difficult and almost impossible, but if someone is serious in their intention, they can start by reducing the time for gambling, adding a lot of daily activities will be a great alternative because with a busy life someone will not have time to express his desire to gamble.

Both consecutive wins and losses can lead to gambling addiction. When a gambler loses bets repeatedly, he needs to take a break from gambling, but the opposite reaction is seen among gamblers. They plan to gamble more to recover their lost money. As a result they become an addicted gambler within few days. Every gambler must conduct gambling within a limit. Gambling with the hope of large profit leads to the possibility of losing money in a short period of time as well as the possibility of becoming addicted to gambling.

Addiction is a complex issue, and it must be faced directly.

Some people are going to lose all their life savings in a few days. That's just not healthy, and people lose their minds first, money next, and sometimes even their life after that.

Gamble responsibly is more than just a warning, it's a life saving phrase in some cases.

but for those who are already addicted to gambling, this life saving phrase is very hard to implement. if not address early, the person will indeed be on the brink of self-destruction as well as destroying his family. because whatever his decisions will be, his immediate family is more then likely affected.
so if you think you are the one who is heading to addiction, pause for a while and contemplate on what you really want in life.
yes, you are absolutely right if someone is already at the "addicted" stage of gambling, it will be difficult to think clearly because of their mindset and mental problems.
it is true that "addiction" to gambling must be dealt with immediately and this cannot be done according to the gambler's self-awareness. instead, it is the role of the family and the closest people who must take firm action on him.
strictly what i mean here does not mean to intimidate the addicted person because it will add to his mental burden, what must be done is for his family or those closest to him to pay more attention to him and invite him to divert his activities to do things that are more productive.
and if necessary, people who are addicted to "offline" gambling must be invited to move from the environment where they gamble. for those who are addicted to "online" gambling, they must be limited to using internet access and must often be invited to do productive offline activities.

definitely
for some people the best way will be to avoid gambling completely
for others they'll be able to approach is as an activity they do for fun once in a while
best way is to avoid approaching gambling as a source of income

whatever you do is a matter of mindset and also your ability to control yourself, gambling will never destroy someone's life if he doesn't become a gambling addict. It's hard to avoid gambling completely when we see some people experience major life changes overnight when winning at gambling.

there are some friends who ask me about how to make a profit from gambling, I can only answer, control yourself, stop gambling at the right time, don't force yourself to continue gambling because everything can change quickly when you are gambling.

You should study other people's experiences to get valuable lessons from them and not experience the same thing. And if you really can't make money gambling, you better not push yourself so it won't frustrate you.

Everyone has their own choice and it will be up to them what they will choose. And you should always think about what might happen to you so that you can make decisions wisely and not take the wrong step. Apart from that, by controlling yourself while gambling, you can also control your emotions because when you lose, there is a possibility that your emotions will increase and that can make you use more money.

A gambling addict who wants to recover should also help himself get through it. It's a challenging thing especially if they aren't aware of the negative impact of the risks that they're taking or if they if it don't bother them anymore.
It requires willingness to change because if not, even with the help of professionals, they will not still recover from it.
A person who has commited crime just because of gambling are more likely to do worse because they will always find ways to make money for gambling. It will be hadd for them to resist if it's already been part of their system but if they want change, nothing is impossible, they only need to have the eagerness to be get through it.

Gambling with the hope of large profit leads to the possibility of losing money in a short period of time as well as the possibility of becoming addicted to gambling.
If their plan didn't change, they would only lose even more without being able to recover their losses. And even if they keep doing it repeatedly, they will have the potential to become addicted gamblers in the future because they are not aware of the dangers of over-gambling. Every gambler must know their respective limits to prevent gambling addiction that can appear at any time. Gambling in the hope of getting a big win is possible, but gamblers must also be aware that this will not always happen, so they are better off gambling enough to stop whenever they want.

Learning it the hard way or learning it from others experienced you needed to assess yourself if you are capable.

If you think you can't afford to lose a lot and you are not willing to do things, that will result in
something worse in life, it's better not to continue your gambling participation.

It's a choice while you are not engaged that much, as once you involve yourself too much, you'll
find it difficult to control and you may do something that you never imagine that you can.

One very common problem is that many people do not believe on theoretical evidence and instead they rely almost exclusively on empirical evidence to create their beliefs, so you could show them the calculations why winning long term and beating the casinos is not possible, but they will ignore you and give you examples of people which won big once or twice, so they try their luck thinking they will be able to replicate their results only to obtain disappointing results and only then they will accept you were right, but not before they lost a massive amount of money while trying to prove you wrong.

Better overview and good control of your emotions are the things that you need to equipt yourself when you are into gambling.

It's tough to maintain your self-control as gambling is really addicting, and without that control you are
risking a lot, not just your money, but also your health.

Giving enough time to always assess the result and having a good mentality to avoid doing unnecessary action when
you are already on the losing side.
Yes, and without good self-control, we will only experience increased emotions, resulting in losing self-control in using money to gamble. It has happened to many gamblers and we really have to prevent it from happening to us, especially if we don't have good self-control. Playing gambling may look easy. We only determine how much money to bet and start gambling but it doesn't look like that because we have to have self-control so we don't play gambling for too long and use a lot of money.

Assessing results or self-reflection will help us know how far we have gone in gambling and what we have. If we have experienced more losses than wins, we should be able to decide to reduce the time we gamble or maybe even stop gambling because the results are not good for us.

A distinctive lack of self-reflection is something very common these days, in my experience many people have very short attention spans and they do not think long term, so they simply react to whatever happens to them, and instead of making a small research and finding out that obtaining profits out of gambling is almost impossible, they keep trying, and once they lose they keep trying anyway as at some point they think their luck will change.
After playing gambling several times, they should be able to reflect on what happened after they decided to play gambling to see whether gambling brought or gave good or bad results. If gambling brings good results in a sense, they can still gamble but must still be able to control themselves and not cross the line. Meanwhile, if they lose, they should try to reduce the time they gamble and even stop gambling before they get into a lot of trouble from gambling.

I'll give you a little extra advice.
it would be better to avoid the mindset of winning big or making big money from gambling. in simple terms, if someone is too ambitious to get a win, all they have in mind is wanting to win, but when they get defeated, it will definitely be difficult to avoid emotions.
almost all gambling addicts must have started with a lot of money.
usually thinking like gambling is the best way to make big money is the beginning of gambling addiction, when it continues to grow then their ambition will begin to damage their awareness in making decisions

so it needs self-reflection to be able to prevent whether oneself has entered the addiction stage or not. do not let you commit criminal acts such as stealing, robbing and even killing just for gambling and the craziest thing is suicide because of gambling debts and so on

anything that goes out of control and starts to be a problem in your life can become an addiction
but usually people in balance who have good emotional networks, exercise, eat and sleep well don't become addicted
so it's a matter of taking care and always being alert
the main thing is to control emotions. as I said before that even professional gamblers will sometimes lose against their emotions and will end up losing which makes it difficult for gamblers to avoid emotions.
all of that just depends on the situation at that time, I mean if you gamble in a calm situation without any problems I think you can control your emotions but if when you gamble you have other problems of course it will be more emotional and difficult to control.

I like the idea of emotional awareness... and calm! a bit more than control

being able to not take a decision based in emotion, but use your rationality

totally agree with your response
better to avoid gambling if you're under stress, sleep deprived or passing through some difficult situation in life.
