You can't quit gambling for sure if you lose tons of bitcoin it will make your self more stressed full than thinking to quit gambling. You always to try to think to chase all your loses from the start of playing gambling. That is why quiting while you want to get back all your loses is make you stay to play more gambling.

It looks like OP's strong decision didn't last more than few days  Shocked

Maybe it's time to lock this topic because OP failed to quit.

Good realization Smiley I sort of did the same and backed out from playing pure gambling games like dice and roulette. I have kept a foot into poker and sportsbetting as they are not purely gambling. Better to stay out of it. I have seen millionaries losing all their bitcoins in single sessions after a tilt.

The real test to know if you have control lover yourself is being able to gamble in a way that isn't stupid mindless way, that is how you test your self control. But some people just have to quit 100% and stay away, those are the worst cases.

Im able to not able for 11 months, and then gamble at the end of the year in the vegas casino with some friends when I make a trip there, just for fun. If you cant enjoy it for fun then just quit.

It is a good choice if you're unable to have full control over how you're gambling. Maybe play for fun with online casino games if you're feeling stressed.

True but when you win some matches or games, it'll take over your emotions and you'll be greedy in no time, if you're​a regular Gambler then controlling that is a tough job.
It's a good decision to stop gamble. Hold on to it.

i don't know why people are always so extreme when it comes to gambling. they are either going all in and taking huge risks and think they are getting rich or they give up on it and stay away completely.

you all have to start thinking about midle grounds and reach a balance. if you don't like gambling then that is alright but if you like it, then make reasonable bets. not something that you can't afford to lose like this other topic in this baord talking about losing 12BTC!
You are right, but some people are very white and black about things, you are with me or against me, and as such they cannot enjoy something by moderately gambling they  need to put big bets and take big risks and in my opinion those people need to stay away from gambling.
I agree, there are indeed people that really like the thrill of betting big amounts and trying to truly gamble their money and try to make a huge profit. That's their adrenaline rush and they love it. Though I think it is still a guilty pleasure they have, they will likely regret it in the end and will say that they will not do it again, but really they will do it again.

Good, you've made a good decision bro  Cool Cool but, remember gambling is like someone who is addictated to picking-up prostitute on the road-side only to be feeled with regret after few minutes of wasting money on her.

So, i encourage you to back it up this decision with consistency - in order NOT TO GO BACK INTO GAMBLING. You can do so by avoiding bookmarker's site(s) local bookmarker office & gambling magazine ..ecc

I made same decision 3-year ago. Today, i'm a FREEE MAN Cool Cool I choose to send my money wisely.

As you've mentioned earliar, programming a very rewarding task depending on your level & platform.
I suggest you improve your programming skill, be patient because this will be reward you in due season.

Finally, as someone who has knowledge of bitcoin, why not keep an eye on the trend, when it's increasing & decreasing.
You could make decent amount of money just like most exchanger's within the marketplace and on localbitcoin.com.

You can reach me via PM for details in regard's to more tip's on how to trade with bitcoin if, you are interested. Most of us here have been making money by simply taking advantage of these constant changes [increase & decrease ]in price.

Thanks & Congratulation⚐⚐

The way the above member explained it is true.
And at that point it is considered an addiction that only gives a false belief that they are receiving happiness and not in a good way.
This is destructive behavior that requires attention by a professional so to help them get out of this never ending cycle of believing they need this avenue of gambling in order to sustain this source of happiness in their lives,
They need another way to receive this same feeling of so called happiness but that is healthy and not so detrimental to their lives. This effects their families or whom ever comes in contact with them for a matter of fact. It is like a disease that is like the plague.
gambling are destructive in most people point of view i guess.

and you know that but keep moving forward to continue to gamble however , that is because addiction and something like that never ended with good things. better to stay away when you think you are not able to manage your money and your emotion in gambling.
Gambling isn't the problem of life destruction since it is a person's choice if he will still put his money at stake, thus there is no other responsible if his decision get wrong but only himself. If a gamble has a right mind set that the only goal is to put what he can afford to lose, there would be no problem. As long has  he know he is out of control and he let himself doing that over and over again, it's his fault.
Only if they have enough money to spend to do it and they are not using the money they need to live off of then I can see it not being destructive to their well being.
Can you imagine someone who is addicted to gambling using their money to play with instead paying their rent or buying their groceries with it?
Now that is the time they need an intervention and require immediate concselling.

Your life, your choice. Nothing is wrong with that. It will get better.
But be sure that you will not get tempted again or it will be the worse.
Gambling industry will always be there and there will also be times that it is like something is calling you to gamble your money.
That is the hardest part of all. Because of the easy way that gambling can give and the faster way to double the money, that made us reasons to play it.

Determination and word of honor is what we should keep in our mind to be able to succeed in our goal to stay away from gambling.  If we are not determined on doing it for sure we will come back on playing it since there are more ways to earn from it.

Everything is a gamble in this life.

What you were playing was a high risk game probably. (Stupid shits like dice, roulette, football etc...)

Having a job for fixed payments are also games where you win %100 unless you are fired. In other words, they are sure bets till they ain't.  Cool

I always try to stay on the safe side in this life. I know it sounds boring, i know it takes too long to collect bits and dust into something big but it's a guaranteed win in the end.

You study, you get the skills, you use your skills to get money and because of those skills you learned, you will win every mf game you are in. That's called "having a job."

I've had good moments and bad moments in my life, but the worst moments is when I spent the entire day gambling and focusing only to winning money for this or that.
I'm tired, seriously, to win big and then fall in more deep "debt" because of greediness. I can't afford to have such experiences anymore, it makes me sad the fact that instead of saving those money I preferred to spend them on a gambling site, I was like oh ok it's just x, so If i can lose it it's ok, oh it's just a faucet, it's ok if I lose it. But when If even with the faucet I reach like 0.06 or more, and then I lose them it's still a touch to the heart, that makes you say if I start back with this amount I can magically make it 0.6, yes probably, cause I did that in the past, as my far record is been from 0.001 to 1.6 btc in 3 hours with roulette, but let's not dig that.

I prefer spending the money on what are my necessities now, than see my wallet drop in amount. Every single f*** time, every time I had the chance to buy btc, or doge whatever, I ended up expecting to win big.
EVEN if I win big, I repeat that, I waste the money afterward, because I think it's a good idea to bet bigger now if my budget supports it, and there it goes down the hole.

Why I decided to leave gambling anyway? I saw how rapidly I was going down in the past few days, and like an hot potato to keep sinking my butt on the wallet. I'm tired of that. I better move my butt and find something that used to keep me busy, like programming, I love programming. But then I got stressed and I started to gamble.

I hope you all understand. All my friends I made in these years on the gambling sites, thank you everyone for your support of my strong decision.
Thanks everyone.

Based on this your reason that I have read, I still have a feeling that you are still coming back because when it cones to dropping an attitude that has been with you for a while, it does not happen suddenly especially the one that you have equally made some winnings. I am sure in no distant future when you have recovered from the losses you have made which is the major reason why you are taking this decision, you will still cone back with your spare money to try of you will win and the moment that happens, you ate back in the game fully again and the cycle continues.

Your story is similar to other's, including mine except that you have won 1.6BTC with just 0.001BTC in roulette if it is true.  Grin

Greed is the main reason for anyone to loss all they have including what they have won by the end of the day. Players need to set limit per day for both profit and loss, when limit will be reached they should just stop playing for that day.

Agreed, is the main reason why gambler/player in the gambling site become addict in a long run.
Being greed always leads the player to their loses in the end.

It's really that simple, you won't be relying on someone else's decision because it is yours, you know what happens if you keep on playing, you know the consequences of being that part of a community. What do you think can happen if you just let gambling control your life? Nothing, it's hard but I know you can manage it.
Deciding to leave is good if you are thinking gambling is not doing anything good in your life, forget your loses and the entertainment you experience so you can fully quit gambling for good. Me, I have been in that situation once in my life but I end up not quitting because I already learn how to control my self  and now and I enjoying gambling.
