Topic: You Should Begin a New Life and Quit Gambling today? (Read 1496 times)

I think so that is good you had a lesson after losing your amount there, but that is very strange you are still placing some bets, after having this kind of bad experience when you got busted than you must quit it, I think if you still doing this than there is pretty good chance to get started again.

not much people like you which can make good decision to quit gambling forever, and i am happy that you can quit after what happen to you. i wish you can begin a new life with good and can stay away from gambling.

Its a common thing that we  would quit directly if we lose  such amount  or  we dont have money anymore but  when at time that we  have money to spend for surewe would keep still playing  until we lose it all. Quiting gambling would not  be easy  especially if  you are already get addicted in to it.

Nice  decision if you get addicted into gambling you not control your self to gamble gamble and again until you think you lose your money.

We all know gambling is not good and it has bad consequences most of the times. If you play limited gambling and stick to your plan and have self control to not keep playing in case of loosing it isn't bad. Gambling is good way to learn some experience and to understand the feeling when someone loose. I am not very careful person and play bets of mbtc because can't afford loosing. If win what happened sometimes good if not don't take it personal and move ahead. It is risky and can loose this is what I keep in mind before start playing each time.

yeah in essence, if you want to play gambling, you must be prepared to accept any loss or play with money can afford to lose. but if you are already gambling and already getting results and impacts that are bad for you, better quit and start a new life.

Gambling is always risky and its better to know that before start gambling and i think many fail to know this risk on starting phase. As well as controlling over gambling is better than trying to completely stop gambling. It is always fun to play some time like once a week or month with small bet size which you can afford to loss.

I whole heartedly agree with the post. I definitely think a lot of gamblers should consider something else in their lives than considering gambling as a career option or wasting time to take a chance at short term gain.

i think it depend on the nature of the person, as i am not playing gambling as we have no such facilities for girls gambling, but perhaps i was playing gambling i would never quit it as it will be an essential part of my life and i will like to continue it but in a limit and not out of limit.

The problem is who really needs to quit gambling they are not ready to do so. Addicted gamblers are not ready to accept at first that they have ruined their lives because they do believe that one day when luck will be at peak can win some huge money. That's why whenever an addicted gambler will receive money will go straight to casino always. Some people really should take in consideration whatever op said and I do agree with many comments here.

Yes, i was very addicted to gambling, after i lost my salary, i quit it forever. No more gambling any more, maybe just bet a few.

We can not apply anything generally as everything has different situation. Gambling has no exception some people are playing for entertainment and fun whereas some getting living out of gambling. When you see something is not working for you including gambling should quit. I don't feel need of having any change in my life so I will keep continuing with gambling like before. Your advice is good for some people and they should listen to you.

Well if you have too much money on your wallet then wasting them sometimes are just fine but instead of doing that why not try to help other people than donating to those crocodiles am i making sense?

I appreciate whatever you mentioned at start of this thread about gambling. That is beautiful piece of writing but I am fully satisfied by my current life as I know how to manage everything. I am gambling on regular basis on different sports events but believe after 4 years of gambling activities still all is well for me. Gambling is part of life to learn and earn different things.

that is certainly true, but I think everyone who does gambling definitely has trouble in life or their economy. so gambling is the place for those who could not fix the problem, so they go looking for a place that can eliminate the problem

Quit gambling? i think it is only for those people who has a problem with gambling, i mean who become addicted person, than they should left it and start a new life. But also gambling is good and useful way for someone like me, because gambling always give me fun time, when i feel boring than i play gambling and i feel happy, so that why i never Quit the gambling in my life.

I am agree with you, if we have a big amount and we have no problem to use the money in gambling, than definitely we have no problem to quit the gambling. Gambling is not a bad way, it give us fun and entertainment, and if we play gambling for fun, than it become good thing for us, so i think no one is here who want to quit the good think.

I think this would depend on your situation. If you're making good amount of money out of gambling, then why should you quit, right? You will know that you have to quit gambling once you notice a lot of loss of money in your bank account. In that case, gambling isn't helpful to you anymore and you should quit it right away. It might be hard at first but with the help of the people around you, you will improve little by little.

if you are an addict, I think you should do it from now on. Begin a new life and quit of gambling.

but for me gambling no effect, not even ruin my life. so I keep playing for fun and get some benefit with free money.

This is because gambling is not part of your life. There is some gamblers who have been exposed to gambling since young. The habit is already within them and it is hard for them to stay away from gambling because their mindset will constantly drift towards gambling.

that is for people which have strict control to theirself but for people which don't have it, its so difficult to try. they need to try over and over before they can feel the benefits. for people which don't have addicting in gambling, they can easy to begin a new life and quit gambling, but for people which is addicted gambling, its really hard to start a new life and they really need to be helped by other people.

it is all about self control and i don't really understand why people keep saying gambling addiction. i have been gambling and i have all my finances under strict control and i have never been addicted to anything.

i also find it easy to do all this and there is no point in quitting something that i enjoy.

i know that i sound like someone in denial but looking back at my stats, like the amount of money that i have spent on the casinos and the amount that i have earned after all this time i feel i am in a good place.

I think you're right. Yes, it is in some cases, especially for those who are really addicted, those who can't control themselves can't live without gambling (I mean people who doesn't want the day passed without playing regardless of what they loss). Maybe you need a Gambling Counselor/Gambling Addiction Therapist already if that's the case because you want to change, but you can't help but play. You need to make a way before it also affects your social life, relationships or career.

Yes, way better if you quit from gambling. Because so many dangerous thing if you get addoction. But as long as you can control yourself,  as long as you can control your emotion, just do what you want.
But still remember, dont spend too much money for gambling.

I don’t want to look as a doucheb@g but the title of the topic is wrong. It should be: You Should Begin a New Life and Quit Your Gambling Addiction/Problem today?

If you know what you are getting into it then gambling to have some fun is not a problem.

quitting should be encourage after losing some real money don't hesitate to look back and try to regain loses because it will not happen it will only let you stuck keep playing and keep losing all over again the reality should be face off gambling is an addiction that really hard to stop on our own its needed time and dedication we should use our money to much better and profitable ways. good luck

I agree that we all have to do that. We have to quit gambling and start doing something else. We can spend the money and time we use to gamble on our hobbies or creative projects. Gambling is like a prostitute. It can give pleasure but also demands money for it. And we may also catch a disease (gamling addiction). The worst thing is that there are no condoms here.

i only bet for contest and competition and i think i still can controlled my emotion in gambling, but i feel poor for who think people can be rich in gambling and don't know they will only end with dust

Nobody could deny this gambling is always ending to get busted with a lot of pain and suffer, every time is the perfect time to give up and we can start a new life without gambling, because if we take a look deeply around us than we can find this there are still something interesting exist to do.

Well, I agree with you. if you often gamble and even addictive, it can make your life threatened to be broken, even it will have an impact on your family. you might be able to gamble, but you have to limit it until you get tired and do not want to gamble again. but I agree, if you want to build a good life, maybe build a new life away from gambling is something that is very nice

Well that is really hard to do if you want to get back your losses with gambling. I would say if you really want to start a new life and beginning you must accept defeat first, accept that you are being defeated in gambling and gambling is not the thing for you. For sure that is going to help you to move forward to find some more good things to spend your time and money.

Yes agree and i have thinking it before read your thread because i never get back my lost from gambling and till now gambling has blow up my life but i never suggest to anyone to stay away from gambling because some people can earn money with this way.

It depends on the person. Some people cannot really stand losses and they get desperate about losing money. One things lead to another and these persons starts to show signs of forgetfulness , signs of depression and feeling sad without any reason. If such is the case, they should stop gambling immediately.

Other persons who remove a part of their money as a bankroll for gambling monthly don't get these symptoms. Usually these are persons who follow tipsters and they don't care if they win or lose but if they win for sure they are happy.

I do prefer sports betting i cant stop my self to bet on that   but in dice games i have no luck so i always keep loosing

This was a great topic ,also i agree on some point that have been said , most of the time gambling wrecks your lifestyle .it will let the person to much focus on gambling and don't recognize that they have been losing his lifestyle ,health and family . As said it has a psychological ,physical and overall mind set up. Gambling when it becomes severe it have bad effects .
The peoples like that should begin a new life and quit playing gambling .

it is a nice and long article, but it is only true if you are mistaking gambling with a method of investment and lose your mind over making bets non-stop in casinos and lose money over and over.

but instead if you look at gambling as a way of having fun, like when you go to the amusement park and spend some money to play the games and have fun, then none of that is said here is true about you. because you wouldn't be wasting time instead you will be enjoying your time.

Exactly , theres a lot of sports bettor and poker players who already makes a living out of gambling. I think this advice are useful for people who can't control their addiction.

Well, it's easy to say quit on gambling but it's really hard to do, especially like me who addicted and hardcore on gambling, even i already lose much money on gambling. I want begin a new life without gambling, but it's really hard to do

Your right that gambling has high risk but you should have luck too not only strategy to make a profit its not depends in gamblers its always depends in your luck in strategy to make a profit.. gambling made to give entertainment not to give free profit.. so for me better to stay away and quit in gambling..

as long as the person is wasting his money he should quite gambling for sure , but in the other hand there are people who are living because of gambling
also there are some people who started the journey with literally zero and build a couple of millions withing 5 years
so it's tricky when it comes to advise people if they should or shouldn't gamble

about the creativity thing , there are many poker players who are supporting charities and there are many poker charity events and this for sure is helping the society , the REG is a great example of that

Its good to see you taking time and making people aware that they should could gambling who are the addicted ones and make them start a new life forgetting every bad things.The problem is that those who are addicted even after loosing so much amount still thinks that they can win at some point and cover their loss,but they should understand it and realise that gambling is not for them.

Seems hard to start a new life and quit gambling especially desperate here . Since most of hard to stop gambling addicts because they actually think they do not like it so much especially if money is lost to them because of gambling . So hard to stop  immediately must have come in their own right decision to stop the gambling .

Hmmm... Gambling is has high risk and need strategy for play it, i think depend on to gamblers its self. if gamblers can not control their money,emotion more wise quit play gambling and start new life without gambling.

Yup Every Real Gambler final decision is this. Stop gambling and start a new life. Because they almost gained bad and good experience from this gambling. And they know if they continue gambling what is the future of their life. So they decide to quit gambling. The OP decision is 100% correct, but I think it is a bit late decision.

I agree with pereira4 you should quit gambling if you are just gaining nothing with it. Even though you are going to treat gambling as entertainment.

Still if that is not giving you anymore enjoyment then you should start to stay away from there already.

And making gambling as main source of income for sure you are going to have problem with it, because you are just going to have source of income by on your luck.

Thank You, OP, aka "Dr. Phil" for your life-changing, community service words of wisdom.

Now can you tell me more about your gambling referral link: 500 CJ FREE Bonus goo.gl/4moS34 ? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1608524.new

For me it depends to the gambler, if you are a responsible gambler and you are not forgetting your duties and responsibilities like your family and job. Then you can just gamble in able to remove your stress but if you are going to get attached with gambling and going to make it part of your life then that is already a syndrome and you must really quit with it.

You are so right and it is the easiest way for us who want to get out of gambling. The fun of gambling is only temporary, so we'll just get pleasure while and after we'll get grief for having a lot of harm. So, don't ever think gambling is the place to look for profits

That is the good decision made ​​by a gambler . Because many gamblers have been negligent in their lives especially those addicted to the habit. So it's better to stop gambling to raise money and to start a new life again . Because gambling can not provide a good , but you will have problems or especially when you do not have to gamble . You always wonder where you get to invest you are able to gamble .

I think that is just to much. I agree with you, but those bad side effects from gambling only happen when you are addicted to it, and they are somehow related to any addition and not just gambling. So yes, if gambling is harming your life in any way, all your information makes perfect sense and you should quite, but if it is not really doing harm to your life in any way, that means that you are not using to much time for it, and you are using it just like any healthy hobby you have and gives you some sort of pleasure and I don't see any harm in that.

this is very true but also this is not happening to everybody. many people are only gambling for fun and you don't need to lose a lot to have fun, you can do it with much smaller amounts.

also you can still be creative and make different strategies, especially in some of the games that need some thinking like card games.

i think its a good advice, addiction to gambling is a very serious problem, if any of you have it, then i suggest to look for help and stop gambling, its okay to gamble as long as it still in a normal portion, and you play it for fun, and when you lose you need to control yourself to stop it

Yes I think for some it would be a good outcome but  its also depending on how you are looking towards gambling itself if you are asking me, I only gamble for the enjoyment not for the money.
The people that do it for the money should consider some ideas without any doubts!

i think if doing gambling as fun and do not interfere with our lives and our daily activities that's fine because for those who could considers gambling such as that gambling can not ruin their life and they could leave gambling anytime they want without feel addicted

if it really effect your life badly then you should really leave it, but i think it is too easy to say and too difficult to do practically, to me the best option is to make a strategy for gambling, you should also fix a limit for your gambling and then not to cross that limit.

That being said it seems like you don't really care if you win or lose those bets so they can not be for a large sum of money or bitcoins that you put down on them for the risk of winning some on top of that.
Which matches did you bet on that you won today if you don't mind me asking. Were they sure things or did you bet on the team with the highest odds? People who do that have a bad reaction on their brain while the game is in progress because they know they have a lot on the line and too lose.

I don't see any bad reaction from my brain when I am gambling honestly. Should I get worried as maybe this is one of the signs of addiction ? I do my research before I place my bets and today I won a parlay bet with 3 games which made me feel really good and my heart was happy and so was my brain. I don't bet uncontrollably even when I am losing. I have my objectives clear in my head what I want to achieve with gambling (only sports betting I play).

Am I a different case, you can ask your professors at your university, I would be happy to know their opinion on the matter. Personally I am not worried but after reading this thread it put my brain into thinking.

This is an interesting study that you have set forth.
For us to understand how the brain works when we are gambling is the first step in how to know with finding out if you have a gambling problem and then find a way on how to deal with it.

As a biology student here i want to disagree with you. Because when it comes to start playing gambling than YES! You can control your brain, That NO i dont want to play. But when you strated playing and make a bet than no one control it to comes under the stress attack. Because your brain started thinking what could be the reults? Win lose, win lose, win lose? This is called stress which cause chronic problem to your brain like forgetting and emotional problems, production of new brain cell and most importantly free radicals that kill the brain cells, depression etc.

You should only quit gambling if it supposes a real problem for you. If you can control your gambling impulses then you can enjoy gambling as an sporadically form of enjoyment and fun and not as a problem that will ruin you.

You have definitely pointed out some good titles there. You just waste your time and lose money when you gamble. Even if you don't wager any money you just lose your time, and , time is money friend!

What Could be the Outcomes of Gambling?

Losing money
That’s a no-brainer. If gambling loses you money, why keep doing it? Sure it is a form of entertainment, but would you disagree that is a costly one? We all have dreamt of making millions by gambling online sitting at our desk, yet dreams come cheap. Reality can be quite painful when one checks his online bankroll and constantly make new deposits. Quit gambling and keep your money in your pockets. Blogging on the other hand won’t cost much in the beginning at least (before changing your blog’s hosting plan), and one can continue dreaming making tons of money, since plenty of people have become professional bloggers making a living out of blogging online.

Tilt
Tilt is the psychological state when big losses have a tremendously bad effect in our calmness and one starts betting uncontrollably. Tilt usually refers to poker, since bad beats more often than not cause tilt situations. However tilt can happen in every aspect of gambling, such as losing in sports betting for several days in a row. Bankrolls get erased in a couple of minutes and items on the desk like the keyboard or mouse are broken, as anger leads tilted players to irrational behavior. Losing in gambling might sometimes lead gamblers to even harm themselves or get angry with their families and friends, although those are extreme situations. Blogging on the other hand can’t possibly be that frustrating. By quitting gambling you effectively quit tilting.

Creativity
We all admit that gambling is the least creative hobby. We neither create anything, nor do we provide some kind of service to society. Creativity is often missed for people actively gambling in their daily lives and blogging can fill that gap. I myself have been blogging for years, in order to feel more creative instead of spending money in gambling.

Time
Now, time is perhaps the most precious asset and I suppose plenty of readers will agree with me. Trying to make money in gambling or even become a professional gambler is very time-consuming. It’s a career actually that will consume all your energy apart from time. Endless nights are spent building a betting system, family trips are cancelled due to popular football games taking place during weekends and avoiding exercise in gyms or even walking, so that we discover the Holy Grail of gambling, are just a few sacrifices an active gambler makes. Devotion and dedication are certainly needed if one’s goal is to succeed not only in gambling, but in other making-money hobbies or jobs as well. In gambling, hours and days may be spent without meaning and in the end gamblers will question their abilities to make money. That is when they will begin asking themselves if it’s time to quit gambling. Referance: http://www.haveigotaproblem.com/download/517/4-Reasons-to-Quit-Gambling-and-Start-Blogging
