Divert yourself into other activities and if you do find out that you cant do it alone then this is the time you would really seek out for help from your loved ones or friends which would really make yourself
divert out if you are really that serious on quitting gambling for good or on the time you do realize that you had found yourself to be that addicted already on gambling. Once addiction do shackles you on
then you would really be having a hard time on getting out from it thats why you should really be that sensible and be aware on what are the actions you are taking. Play on the amount you can afford to lose and dont make gambling to be your main source of income because you cant really able to do so and thats how reality works.

I've been an gambling addict before and diverting into other things made me slow down doing gambling and focus on more important things. I've entered many hobbies with the intention to avoid gambling and divert my time into focusing in these things that made me happy on things I achieved with these hobbies. Today, I'm proud that I can avoid playing gambling when I think I need to stop, I can control myself from temptation of playing a lot and I improved my relationship in real life given that I spend more time with them and lessen their stress knowing that I'm a gambling addict before. I'm glad that I didn't resort to consulting into professionals just to make me control my gambling addiction. I'm still playing gambling from time to time now but I can fully control it.

I think its very hard to change behaviors that turn into habits. Considering the fact that our body literally produces hormones that will effect our psychological health if we keep following our routine. Gambling as a habit is no different. Best way to finish this habit turning into addiction is to cut your brain wires symbolically. You should stop yourself producing that harmful hormone making you slave.

Managing addiction in general is very hard to change or remove it in our personality. But if we do the proper management in our daily habit during gambling activity.I think as a gambler where going to have a good result in the end.
However, it is still better to lessen the habits we had in the gambling until we will notice that addiction in the gambling will be disappear in the end.

One of the positive things that an addicted gambler can do is to take a few steps away from the casino and have a safe distance to a circle of friends that could bring the gambler again to the casino or platform, that will certainly be a struggle at first because the gambler is already used to the gambling environment but if that said gambler is certain to get his life straight then I don't see a way that he won't endure that struggle.

i think the best thing for this matter for us not become an addict in the gambling online is that the individual gamblers must do this as one of His/Her hobbies only, if they do this addiction in it will not come to anyone. Just don't allow greediness to control us so that in the end addiction has no power to us here in any of the gambling casino.

Yeah right, I also think the same as you. if we only make gambling as a hobby without exaggerating. or to a certain extent. then maybe we can minimize it to avoid gambling addiction itself. although sometimes there are many people who prioritize their hobbies more than their work. but that's rare. Gambling should not be the focus. but only used as a means of having fun for a moment. and related to greed, when someone has already entered into greed, it is very difficult to stop people like that. because when greed takes over, common sense sometimes becomes dull.

Nah! You're just getting yourself more prone to get addicted in gambling, you surely wouldn't want yourself to pick a hobby in gambling activities as you surely know what is likely the result of that. Gambling should just be a pure entertainment and a way to forget the reality especially when we're too soaked in work and stress.

If you need a hobby, it shouldn't be gambling. You should try different ways to reduce stress. You should increase your hobbies with arts, sports, hand skills. If you want excitement, you can do things you have never experienced before. Online gambling makes people addicted. Being able to gamble every second and minute triggers the human brain. If this event is not brought under control, there will be dire consequences.

Exactly! Making gamble as a hobby will definitely be one of the worst decision that a man/woman can do, well except for the one's who's been successful enough as a professional gambler but even these professionals are still losing big time as defeat is inevitable when it comes to gambling because the result are very unpredictable. If you want a hobby, maybe you can find some other things that will get you more creative but gambling? That will get you more problematic.

If gambling is made as hobby it means you are going to see the person always attached to his hobby. A hobby is what you enjoy and like doing all the time and unfortunately gambling involves money and we are attached to where our money is. It is a very difficult thing to do attually to take someone out from gambling and addiction. Getting help is the best to restrict someone to a certain limit.

But do you actually know that greediness can come at anytime, people should not see gambling as hobby if I should make suggestion, they should just see it as fun, but not fun to the extent they will see it as hobby, they should only devote little of their time to it. The second is that they should always keep it in their mind that gambling is not for money making, but should be only seen as fun and nothing more, they should always know that gambling is riskier and can take than give profit.

As long as the person is not aware of his addiction, he will not try to quit and will even continue to gamble. That way, the addiction will continue to be a part of him without being able to be cured. Gambling addiction is bound to have bad consequences for a person and even if someone tries to remind him or tell him to stop gambling, he will not want to stop. But we can overcome gambling addiction by always limiting the time and money we spend on gambling.

It's because you guys are not really into gambling that's why you say things like that. That's not applicable for me as a regular bettor for long. It's easy for you to just say things without experiencing the real situation on your feet. You don't know the feeling of being a pure bettor so for me, just sit back and relax and allow us to become addicted responsibly.

You also have to remember that even if we are already addicted to gambling, we are automatically irresponsible all-around. It's already very common that there are lots of people that is addicted to gambling but NOT ALL do have the same irresponsible act. From what I observed here in the forum, especially among those not gamblers or newbies, when they saw the term "addict" it means that person is now going nowhere else and has already fallen into the trap of gambling which is not in reality.

That's not very helpful. Once someone who is into gambling is not getting conscious anymore despite the prying eyes of his family members, its always worse. Once h e doesn't care anymore of what his family members are going to say about him, the addiction had eaten him completely. So before that will happen and while a person still feels bad for himself when someone close to him tells him to stop it, there is a chance to make it easier.

This gambling addiction is something very delicate, personally, thank God I have never suffered from it, because when I have some losses, well, that makes me step on the ground and not think that the world is beautiful, but I have a friend who was the one who the university took us to see casinos, what surprised me was that he always played betting with a lot of money and when he lost he did not care, his cousin told me that when he gets paid he spends all his salary there, now I know that he does not go there the casinos but if he plays in some that are online, he bets btc and everything he finds, and I know that he is addicted, but the good thing is that he has followed my advice, to go to a psychologist to help him and that is how he is currently going, But I think that the best advice of all is for the person to recognize that they are addicted and that is the only way to help them.

To remove an addiction is not overnight, I think a very intelligent way is to play with little money and when you lose it, immediately after you leave and do not play until the next day, and to avoid the old, what you should do It is another activity so that you do not relapse. For example a sport, going out, walking, riding a bike, something that keeps your mind busy.

oh right. your suggestions are all very good and open my mind. And I also remember that people who become addicted are also not addicted at first but they become gambling as a hobby so it becomes a habit and eventually becomes addicted. I forgot for a moment this important point. that if gambling is made into a hobby then we are just as deliberately giving time to play more gambling which will make it even more addicting. because many people are addicted to their hobbies such as fishing and sports. So yeah, you're right, don't make gambling a hobby. and I also rephrase what I said about making gambling just a hobby. that's the wrong move. because we need other hobbies to divert from gambling. such as exercising, traveling or for those who have skills, they can hone their skills.

One way to manage gambling addiction fir me is that, you just have to make your best prediction and somehow believe that your going to loss. You might ask why bet if you know you would lose? The simple answer is; there is that small chance that you could get lucky!
I mean, you wouldn't go big in a bet if you know your going to lose right? Having that idea, you would be conscious to the fact that, you wouldn't want to gamble always and loose money in the process so, you tend to watch it and that would help to keep addiction at bay.
Gambling addiction is a very serious issue and can wreck you if you don't discover it quick.

LOL great advice. Treat it like a hobby! Why so serious Mr. Gambler? Cheesy

The truth is some people fall victim to gambling addiction and some do not. There's a lot of things that influence this. You cannot know which one of your friends will be an addict until you see them play for a while. Some people have this drive, their character changes when they gamble, they become aggressive, ready to sacrifice everything in that one moment. They turn into animals when they gamble. You can't reason with them and it's very difficult to help them.

That's easier said than done because as a gambler, we will be getting this challenge not to become greedy and avoid getting addicted every time we get to gamble, we surely would not want to become those gambling addicts who badly need some help to get their life straight again. I think the best thing to do is to have self-discipline rather than just thinking not to become an addict.

Great post OP, I would like to add some points of mine to this open discussion thread -

1. Do not deposit more than what you can afford to lose.
2. If you lose, you don't deposit more, you just say it's over for the day.
3. Trying to double your amount to recover your loss will eventually bring more losses. Revenge bet is a totally no-do.
4. Overall, Gambling is an addiction, If you think you are getting addicted, ask someone in your family or friend for help.

Good Luck!

This is actually good, especially that #3. Although we already know these things but we tend to forget about it sometimes when we are already at the moment of gambling. I'd say that's also why a self-discipline is a must to refrain these things from happening to us. We surely already know that gambling is not good if our goal is to make that a kind of job because it's not stable and gambling is only for pure entertainment purposes only.
