someone who is addicted with gambling what the person needs is a counseling not a medical doctor for treatment because it's not a sickness you can treat this only works of information that you need put and brainstorm another one to know what exactly gambling addiction can lead into so I think that doctors don't have any impact to play for addiction of gamblers

Excess of everything is bad. Be it gambling, consuming alcohol or even eating and doing other stuff in excess. There should be a balance between things.
If you are gambling you should know when to stop and when to leave the casino. Being patient and getting crazy for money is not a good move whatever the situation is.

Agree on this one on which excess on everything is really bad that's why you should always be considerate on what you are tending to do if that one would be ideal or not because excess on everything will be having a corresponding effect specially in gambling.If you don't make yourself aware on that then it would be hard.

Addiction on gambling is really hard for you to get out or even on other things too on which too much involvement or engagement will really result into this outcome.If you don't like to mess up your life then getting some good control of everything should be done.

Is there any other way to manage any kind of addiction other than stop doing it?! We are all addicts in some way, but most of us have some control! We know how much we can "force ourselves" and spend without getting into troubles of any kind! When some people lose that control, or can't achieve some level of control they should stop, literally! Remove that activity from your daily routines! Find some other interesting activity or you will just sink deeper and deeper!

I don't believe we can help someone who doesn't want to be helped! Some people (and partially I include myself in that) are simply destructive in some way, so the only way to cure their addiction is to put them in some kind of jail, but is that a good thing to do? Of course not, it's better to work on education, better to prevent than to treat! Simply vices are everywhere around... it's something we all have to deal with on daily basis! And as I said before, it's like playing with fire, and we all like to play with some fire! We need to learn how to do it, or there are consequences!

A good thread that can correct or pay attention to ourselves if we are in some of those threads if we read properly will definitely fix it so as not to become an excessive gambler, and this thread is very good for serious addicts to follow.
but back again to them, whether the person has the intention to get rid of the addiction. And also have the determination, intention and passion to get rid of addiction of course you can.

addiction is a disease, being a disease only a doctor can treat this disease, reading articles on the internet will not help at all. the person needs to look in the mirror and say to himself: "I am addicted and I need medical treatment and I will seek medical treatment", this is the only way a person needs to go to get treated. In my family, there have been many addicted people who died due to addiction, that's why I know how addiction can destroy a person. and something sad!

MAaaN...!! CUT THAT STUPID SHIT

When gambling becomes a habit and addiction, it needs attention. Gambling addiction is not good and will have an impact on the quality of life.

Some of the things that can stop gambling addiction is to find the real reason why you have to gamble. If gambling is only for entertainment of course and to forget a problem, of course it takes time to stop gambling.

To be able to end the habit of gambling can also block access to gambling, so that there is no way to gamble anymore. must be really aware when all access is blocked because it is a wrong habit.

Gambling is just for entertainment and every once in a while will not be a problem. Must be really aware that gambling will not always win.

I agree with you,once you have build up the self confidence that you are ready to quit gambling and never look back,do it by all means.I was not long ago in addiction to slot machines and every time I told myself this is it I am going to quit gambling but I will do it eventually rather than instantly,I ended up losing everything in those times when I was gambling to just gamble less and less,I could not keep myself at bay and as such for me this strategy does not work.

Once I told myself I am quitting and never looking back,it is then that I know I have a huge self control (except a few cases where I get mad by not getting the bonus round and losing everything) and I am not addicted anymore,I control the money and I am the one to manage my session most of the time.While many gamblers who are addicted they think they are managing the session but in reality it is the session managing them.

Doesn't the bold one take time? So it means, the plan to quit is there but yet due to the circumstances you needed time to do it. Then the gathering of self-confidence until you have enough build, and quit. From that perspective, it isn't an abrupt decision. It was carefully planned until you meet the status where you are ready to ~~quit~~ take a break in gambling.

We don't have to condemn addiction of gambling because that is their own source of of getting whatever thing they need they are the third to gambling because it is only chance of survival in their own way so I will not like a situation whereby some people will condemn it Cumberland as a bad or or negative attitude of life some people get addicted to something because it is the place they survive and please that helped them feed daily and the monthly so therefore you cannot leave it or take it for granted.

Admit to Have a Gambling Problem
Once we identify that we had those signs, we must admit that we have a gambling problem so that it will be easier to process a recovery therapy. Denial won't help because it will only block all the medications needed to recover from gambling addiction. One we admit the problem, it is the best time to seek help from professionals who specialized in this kind of addiction.

This is one thing that prevents many gamblers from admitting that they have a problem with gambling. Those who have problems with gambling will not realize it because they just play continuously and will not even stop even if they have won some money. As long as they do not admit it, it will be difficult to assist them even if they use professional help. It really needs to be brave to admit that they have a problem with gambling.

Those who gamble and and become unlucky to lose their money - they quit most of the time.
It is like consuming too much alcohol. Only the stronger people come out of these addiction victoriously. Rest either keep suffering or face miserable circumstances.

Quitting is not a word for a person who got addicted to gambling because they will be in that situation if they are not already addicted. The chances are they will just quit for short term then come back again once they have already funds to play and lose once again. An addicted person doesn't stop gambling as long as he can still have ways to gather money to fund his addiction. The can’t just simply quit because they want the satisfaction they are getting from winning and they will always look for it when they lose. It's just a cycle tbh.

Gambling addiction especially the severe ones couldn't quit easily because their urge and desire to gamble are uncontrollable. They need to seek professional help for them to be treated because it's already a mental health condition. Gambling addiction is just like any other type of addiction which are unbearable and could ruin lives in the long run. If a person is experiencing a severe level of it, he won't be able to treat himself but he needs professional medication or rehabilitation.

Nah, addicts doesn't quit when they're already lose all of their money because they can beg to their family or taking a loan or wait the next monthly pay check. They will try to double or triple their money to recover from the previous lose, usually they can do it, but since they're greedy enough, the unrealized profit they got turn become losses. Even gambling isn't a stuff that have a caffeine, but it do have similar effect like caffeine.

Do Not Quit Gambling Cold Turkey
If you are planning to quit gambling, don't do it in an instant. It is best to quit gambling slowly like making less and less time for gambling until we are ready to stop full time. Quitting in an instant won't help because there is psychologist behind it. It is said that altering behavior in a whim is a very hard thing to do unless a person have strong wil to do it. People who don't will have more problem than usual because stopping on anything a person is fond with won't happen overnight. It will be a better thing if a person who wanted to stop to go through a process. This way, family and friends can help.

I tend to disagree on this part , I use to be a gambling addict in the past and yes I really spend a lot of money and time , I almost spend my family because of this as I also involved in alcohol addiction and smoking , But when I decide to stop? i quit instantly and yeah , I never take a look back , i return to play again when i finally find myself not longing to gamble anymore and now using this as a way to spend my time enjoying the game and not tending to win.
Maybe there is different approach but what i do believe is depend on how dedicated you are in your plans and decision and how you will hold on to it.

For me, once we saw a person that already falls into the wrath of gambling, we should be the one to come to that person and not the other way around. They need help that they can't voice out their problem as they are already out of their mind.

This might be the right thing to do but I don't think it is that easy. Remember, gambling addicts, always have a denial on their side. Approaching them and telling them that they are possibly a gambling addict might cause trouble. No matter how much diplomatic approach you do, if he is currently close to any suggestion and in denial may cause irritation and an invasion of privacy to the person. It might end up in a misunderstanding.

Quote from: harizen on June 19, 2022, 05:54:52 PM

As much as possible, convince them or their family to consult a professional person or institution to help that gambler overcome their gambling problem. I'm sure in any place or region, there's a government agency or private one that helps those people with gambling problems.

I think we must have patience and time it right if we wanted to encourage him and his family about the treatment. If we see that the person had opened himself for help then we should do what is needed to do to help him recover from gambling addiction.

good and informative thread ,maybe some people have experienced or need such guide for rehab.
the gambling company fully provides the best service for a euphoria and celebrates the little things.
the points you mention may not all experience the same thing but some people experience certain points.
if things weren't superfluous it might just be a fill of time in a time void. And this wouldn't burden psychology.

even something that is done every day if it is not regulated and limited will be more disturbing and more addictive.
I don't think it's from gambling, but from a habit, in a hurry and wanting to find multiples of pleasure (the meaning of a game).
Addiction is a pleasure you always want to do.
So it depends on the individual.

your tips are very useful if those around me need this information, I will provide a reference link to this thread for a study and their reflection.
I think this can be applied in everyday life regardless of their obstacles.

Remind Yourself that Gamblers Change
It was a thing of the pass that gambler don't change. Many people speculate that once a person is addicted to gambling, they will forever a gambling addict. But this thing has been proven wrong. Many gambling addicts who gone through medical treatments are able to recover and avoid gambling all in all.

I was once an addict and I was very addicted to gambling to the extent I even can go hungry because of gambling, but it got to a point, lessons from being an addict taught me to change for my life not be remain devastated and not meaningful, addicts life are not meaningful at all until they change.

But what people do say which is very right is that, for example, you have a friend, he is an addict, you told him not to gamble and told him also how he is losing that gain and how his life has become, but you still see him gambling. You can see other people telling you that gambling addicts do not just changed, that it is difficult to change.

I have never heard that addicts can not change, but I do hear that it is a difficult process and it will take time.

As said, it is a difficult task that takes time as well as requires self willingness. Because, a gambler can change his life on self realisation and not on someone's suggetion. Above user is a clear example. A friend can suggest, but it won't come to an end unless he himself realise the effects of gambling over him.

Myself too an addict, and I'm trying to keep myself in control. I used to stay away from gambling for a month's time, and later I won't be able to continue it. I gamble and and loss. This is routine with me, and I'm happy that I never think of ending my life. Often come across news about youngsters ending their lives after losing big on gambling. The amount lost by me in gambling is higher than the youngsters who've ended their lives.
