Xantys Posted July 5, 2018 #29 Posted July 5, 2018 most of us can stop easily, but an addicted person can't until his life is ruined
MianhaeX Posted July 5, 2018 #30 Posted July 5, 2018 I can only stop gambling if I don't have money. You know that playing gambling is fun especially if you win but if you lost then just hang out outside with your friends.

davinmark Posted November 10, 2018 #38 Posted November 10, 2018 Hmm stop from gambling is your personal decision. because even we got a big lose, we still want go back to gambling so its about your establishment to not coming back, and find another way to get a money from real life
jualid Posted November 10, 2018 #39 Posted November 10, 2018 How to stop gambling? Tbh it's very hard to stop/quit gambling. Just don't let you hold your money, maybe like give it to your parents. So you don't have money to gambling.
lupandina Posted November 10, 2018 #40 Posted November 10, 2018 Actually, it's not so hard, if you know real reason of your gambling and finding alternatives. Do you gambling because strugling in money and hoping to win? Find a better job (that worked for me). Do you gambling because you bored? Get busy with smth else. Do you gambling because of "high" feeling when win? Try skydiving 😂
Realraidengod Posted December 11, 2018 #41 Posted December 11, 2018 you can put a lock on everything that has something to with gambling or do something to suspend you forever . or you could just visit a doctor to help you out with that problem
FotisNt Posted December 11, 2018 #42 Posted December 11, 2018 Hello, deciding to stop doing something you enjoy can be challenging, there may be times when it feels impossible but remember lots of people have quit gambling and we can help you. Do your best to stay away from gambling, the ideal outcome is that you stay away. However if you do revert to gambling don’t get down on yourself. You can always get back on track and use the experience to learn how to stop next time. It is helpful to know lapses are normal and can happen at any time when you are trying to quit. When lapses occur, becoming aware of the triggers that lead you to gamble can help you manage urges more effectively in future situations. To give yourself the best chance of sticking to your new path, try some of our strategies for change. As with quitting smoking, people who stop gambling experience urges to gamble. Urges are an inevitable part of stopping gambling and a natural part of the process of regaining control. Every time you overcome an urge, you are gaining more and more control. Read more about urges. While you can restrict your exposure to gambling triggers, you will not be able to avoid them completely, which is why it is important to learn ways of managing the urges. Delaying the decision to gamble allows time for the urge to pass and for you to feel more in control of the decision. This is different to urge surfing as the focus is on the person using distraction from the urge to gamble rather than letting it pass without distraction. Distraction takes the focus temporarily away from the urge and can give you time to rethink your decision to gamble. Try the following next time you have the urge to gamble: -Relax and focus on staying calm. -Take some deep breaths to slow yourself down and refocus on what you can do now. -Try to distract yourself with an activity to keep calm, such as a shower or a bath. Or you may read a book, cook or watch a TV show to stop thinking about gambling. Find an activity that suits you. -Say to yourself "maybe I won't go, I will see how I feel in an hour" and then go and do something else. Remember you may find the urge returns when you stop the other activity. If this happens, perhaps try the urge surfing technique as above. Set a goal that you can achieve if you stop gambling or develop a list of reasons why you made the decision. For example: -I will have more money to put towards a holiday. -I will be able to hold my head up high. -My family will be proud. - will be able to pay my bills. -As my savings begin to grow money will have value once again. Staying quit Remember urges do not usually last longer than one hour. DELAY + DISTRACT = STAYING STOPPED Once you have decided to delay the decision to gamble, shift your attention to what you might like to do. It might be something you used to do before gambling became a problem, or something you've always wanted to try. Many people find engaging in sport fulfilling; this could be anything that gets you moving. From a daily walk or run, to joining a gym or team sport. When you feel an urge, do something else immediately and keep the following in mind: -Limit access to money -Surf the urge -Distract from the urge -Seek support from someone you feel you can trust. You don't have to call someone to talk to them about experiencing an urge. You might just want to ring and talk about something completely unrelated to gambling. Hope i was helpful.

FotisNt Posted December 11, 2018 #48 Posted December 11, 2018 Hello, of course we can stop anytime but its way too hard, here are some tips to balance it. Tips for Managing Money Carry only a small amount of money on you Leave debit and credit cards at home Cancel your credit cards Ask your bank to fix a maximum daily withdrawal limit (for example 40 Francs) Learn how to live within a budget that is realistic for your income and expenses. Ask for advice from a social service or a debt counselling agency, in order to manage your finances and debts. Put in place standing orders for standard bills (rent, insurances etc.) Tips for Managing Gambling For casinos, use the "self-exclusion" service, or the "visitation agreement", to limit the amount of visits and their duration. For electronic lotteries, such as Tactilo, it is possible to make agreements with the vendors Arrange some enjoyable activities and do not punish yourself Regularly think of things that motivate you to stop gambling Consider activities that you have enjoyed in the past and that you have given up due to gambling Plan activities, other than gambling for the days that you receive your salary Try to spot things that cause you problems Try to avoid going to places where you can gamble, for a while Change your routine, to make sure that you do not come across opportunities to gamble At gambling establishments, keep yourself as far as possible from the games, avoid speaking about gambling, try to modify your usual habits. External Support Give your credit cards to a friend or family member that you trust Ask for a co-signatory for bank withdrawals Speak to someone that you trust, about your gambling difficulties Tell those close to you not to give you money Take someone with you when you are withdrawing money. I believe that those tips might reduce gambling or make it even safer.
federcampos Posted December 11, 2018 #49 Posted December 11, 2018 I think not because sometimes I think about quitting but the next day I have the desire to continue playing but I have been able to stop playing for 1 month ☺
