The simplest effective way to reduce your gambling is to find a new hobby, a hobby is an activity where we will feel happy to do, then this will help our minds to gradually forget things about gambling. As a result we will be more focused and busy ourselves with the new hobbies that we find compared to gambling.

Hi play gambling always control because if I have any work 1st I complete my work then I play and in my opinion if you complete your roteen work then you feel relx and play good game during work I don't think gambling give you good results

it will take time but you can control it, if you start some other activites in your life, and make your self busy in some other works, like go for some outdoor games and hang out with friends, or start playing video games or watch movies or any other stuff.

you just need to distract your mind from gambling, if you do this successfuly, you can control this habit.

Maybe take a look out in the outside world and try some sports hobbies? (Even tho you don't like it you should have to) just to escape the gambling habbit you are facing off just a little advice would be good

It is very easy to control actually. All gambling is about money, so you need to control the way you spend money on gambling. Once you get that under control you do have gambling under your control and the rules are simple: never spend more than you can afford, actually spend a bit less than you can afford, never take loans to gamble.

addiction means you have a prob!em.. people keep saying gambling is an addiction.. to me is a form of entertainment recreational in other words.. i enjoy it and it does have its dark side and good side.. as long the individual enjoys it and not rui  his entire life.. then let it be.. is like a drug some can handle it others dont.. some might need it to function right some wont even care for it.. but its up to the individual.. is there choice.. any actions they do was up to them..dont blame the gambling b!ame the person.. especially financially..  the perso  gotta learn when to stop and practice e self control..

That's an important thing. And I think it will help me best. I need to control my money. I will try to spend less in gambling. And I need to save my money at somewhere else. Cause when I get extra money I do gambling with it. That's the bad habit I have much.
