Gambling addictions is caused by aggressive stakes which the gambler needed to recover back his lost and then he may decide to quit or stop chasing after profits but while on the context he would always keep up loosing.
His grieves of unrecoverables would always justify his action at the points of aggrieve ness.
Aside counselings, can an addicted gambler ever moderate himself all by himself to quit or limit his gambling addictions?

No, I don't think that an addicted gambler would even be able to notice that he/she is addicted to gambling and when someone isn't sure about addiction then quitting it doesn't makes any sense.
Counseling and someone's help is highly needed to help the addict recover from the addiction. That someone can be a friend, or one of your loved ones but his/her help will be needed for the recovery of an addict.
Some gambling addicts have so severe levels of addiction that it would be a pretty tough job for even those helpers to help in recovery and in such cases a rehab center is the only place where such gambling addicts can get treated.
-
Yes, an addicted gambler can help him self to minimize or stop gambling if only he/she realized that they are too addicted and has lost more to gambling than profiting from it.
Doe its quite difficult for someone to quit an addiction or habit, but if you've learnt it the hard way, I think you can quit or reduce it, and its not just a one day thing, but continuos effort to stop it will definitely improve their chances of doing it.
-
Many people moderate themselves into quiting smoking. Why cant they do it in gambling addiction?
All it needs is a motivation to do it and has plans for his future.
-
I think this is not just gambling but also in all aspects of life that give of the same vibe, like trading.
Anyway, if someone is addicted, it's not going to be an easy road for him but I think it would be possible but it has a low chance. Having to choose to not gamble would be hard for an addict. It would always lead to gambling. What someone needs is outside factors which other things can give but it's still up to the person to completely change. It's all about willpower.

A gambling addict can stop or correct his gambling addiction on his own. It is a different matter if a gambler is extra greedy and if after gambling profit he keeps gambling bets in the hope of getting something extra. But if a gambler prepares mentally and decides that he will not involve himself in gambling then he can definitely prevent himself from the terrible addiction of gambling and prepare himself to take the right decision.

I think that a better expression would be that they can try to break with their addiction, but unfortunately the percentage of those who succeed is not very significant. Of course, the difficulty of quitting depends on how long someone has been gambling and whether they have the support of people around them - those who have been in it for too long and have no one's support will find it very difficult to break the addiction on their own.
After all, there wouldn't be so many specialized rehab clinics in the world if it was so easy to quit on your own.
-
This is very hard to do unless you have some help, this is true for all addictions.
If someone has a very strong will to quit than this could be a positive thing but he needs to do it in early stages, until it becomes to late.
When starting to drink alcohol or gambling it is easy to stop yourself, but it is very hard when it becomes a habit and passion.
-
It is very hard for ab addicted gambler to stop gambling by himself. Unless people talk to him the disadvantages of being addicted to gambling. And addiction comes in different ways. There are sometimes it comes as aggressive to chase the lose as your said op. Then peer play as challenge or bet and the hunger to win big one day. And the best way for an addicted gambler to stop is counseling everyday and also he has to help himself to stop if really he wants to. But to stopped himself with s not possible.

No and never , though maybe there is some big things that happened to change them from addiction but this is truly a rare occasion that an addict can just change like that, there must be something or someone that come along the way that made them decide and act to leave gambling.,
because at my age now and for how much I know gambling? there is a tin chances that addict can just change with no one helping them.

I totally agree, I would rather talk about percentages. Someone who has problems with gambling, but has only been doing it for a short time, and when faced with a punctual event of losing a lot of money, considers quitting for himself, I think he is much more likely to succeed than someone who has been doing it for many years with problematic behavior in that sense.
After all, there wouldn't be so many specialized rehab clinics in the world if it was so easy to quit on your own.
And the bad thing is that there are many people who, even after completing a rehabilitation program, end up relapsing.

An addicted gambling can stop by him self only when if start losing more than making profits, this is because is mindset is bet on recovery all he lost then ended up losing all he got. This is called aggressive staking.

This is also true, because even after rehabilitation, many people find themselves alone again and very easily start the same path again. What I didn't mention is that many who need help can't actually get it because such centers are usually private and quite expensive.
There is also a very large discrimination in society towards such people in relation to their social class - because those who are in the lower classes and have some kind of addiction are mostly presented as a problem, while the rich have a way of keeping it away from the public or that the same public has some insane sympathy for their problem.

I can attest to say such happens where an addicted one fights out his addictive endivoirs but I do not believe it is practically possible for someone to realize that his endivoirs are being addicted by his actions. This is usually hard to be realized by oneself and even if by means a gambler or such an additive smoker could successfully stop with their additions somedays, I believe it is usually inspired and aspired by someone else.
Who will always be that one person behind encouraging the addicted one to quit or minimize their endivoirs.

Aside counselings, can an addicted gambler ever moderate himself all by himself to quit or limit his gambling addictions?
Well, the answer is yes, an addicted gambler can actually help him or herself come out from his or her gambling addiction, but this is if the addiction is still at its very light to moderate stage, that is, if the addiction hasnt eaten deep into the gambler's system or brains.
Like I would always say, there are different levels of and to addiction in general, not just gambling addiction alone, so, for a gambler who is just getting addicted to gambling, it's actually very easy for such a person to around and free him or herself if and when he or she realizes that he or she is beginning to gamble way too much than as it is considered normal.
But for the person whom the addiction has eaten deep into, it's almost not not impossible for such a person to help him or herself without some form of external help.

I would agree with you in this argument that to some point, a gambler who is addicted at the early stage could be able to help himself or herself from gambling because at that stage, one can control themselves from gambling, and when that is just their beginning but a full-blown-addicted gambler would need someone to always guide them through the process for their consciousness to be awakened and for them to know that they are on a therapy to stop their gambling addiction for their own good.

For me, there are stages of addictions. And quitting is not always as easy at it seems. And even you quit, you can relapse and mess with your efforts and come back again.
Every person is unique. And some might quit through counseling, peer intervention, or just lost everything. But for some, it might not work at all. Some might hit the rock bottom, but keeps on gambling. Some might take loans or worse steal. But like i said, not all but for some, there will be always a point that will open your eyes and tells you to stop. I've been there, and i almost lost my job, deep in debt and it opened my eye. That in gambling, losing is certain and winning is a probability.
-
Yes, an addicted gambler can help himself. If an addicted gambler is not ready to overcome his addiction, no individual can help him. Remember heaven help those who help themselves. The first step to overcoming gambling addiction must start with the addict. An addicted gambler must acknowledge that there's a problem with his gambling. This involves being honest with himself about the negative impact gambling is having on his life. When this is accepted then he can seek other means to help himself. This might involve setting goals for reducing or stopping gambling.

That's not how curing addiction works counselling from professionals are just a way to convince the gambler to undergo treatment and to give the gambler on the overall assessment of his addiction.
The gambler will eventually or intentionally forget the word of advice he will continue to gamble and will just realize all these advice when he lose a lot of money.
-
I don't think so. An addicted gambler cannot help himself to recover. Most addicted gamblers are not even aware that they are into problem gambling and so it takes a third party to help them heal completely. Just as a blind person needs people around him so it is with an addicted gambler. He needs support groups to help him.

That is right. An addicted gambler will never get rid of addiction by himself. Because he isnt able to look on the situation from side, from different angle. How can he tell himself that he is cured? If he wasnt disciplined enough at first place and become addicted, how can he be disciplined enough to say he is cured? A maximum what he can achieve on his own is a pause.
-

In fact, if you look at it from one side, the gambler has to try himself to get rid of gambling addiction, if no changes come from inside him, then no matter how big the counseling of psychologists outside, his addiction will not be freed. So I think if a gambler has an honest desire to get rid of his addiction and acts accordingly like he is tempted to stop gambling and maintain his self control then I think a gambler is himself. That alone is enough to moderate gambling addiction.

I think it is still possible for a gambling addict to recover without the help of other people, as long as their level of addiction is still low. But they have to realize that they already have that addiction.
It's difficult, but when there is a drive within them to be able to stop or at least want to reduce gambling, I think they will be able to do it. However, this also takes time, because what I have seen is that the process by which they realize this takes a long time.
-
Well gambling addiction is not something that can be easily stopped expecially by one self, for an individual to stop the addiction of gambling alone without any one help . Such individual must try all means to reduce how often he gamble, like by engaging himself with other activities that would get his mind at of gambling for sometime. And should hangout with his love ones alot that would also help to get one mind out of it . And also try meditating . But if one see that there's no pregress in doing it alone ( stopping the addiction) he or she should seek for support from others.

I think it's possible but it's definitely going to be one of the hardest challenge that he or she must have given himself because I believe it's not easy to make that decision that will financially stable , so many gamblers have had their time and chances cut down because of the wrong choices they took but only a few come back to the realization of the action being rock and fewer gamblers make and keep that strict policy that helps them stop the act.

actually we can do better for them but we can use force , I mean we can bring them into a place where they cannot access gambling and wil divert their interest into other part of living.
also we can give them knowledge what have they lose from those days of gambling addiction to realized what they can do better instead.
-
Aside counselings, can an addicted gambler ever moderate himself all by himself to quit or limit his gambling addictions?
Depends on the gambler. The possibility for this to happen can only be achieved if the gambler himself decides to quit his gambling addiction. Having a full decision and realization that being addicted to gambling greatly affects not only his life but also his family can be one of his inspirations to quit and be enough reason to make this happen.
The same as article I have read before, states that it is possible with their own way to overcome their addiction. By focusing on some other things where all the time will be occupied. In this way, they will never have an opportunity to gamble even if they want to.
Again, this is only possible if the gambler himself decides to overcome his addiction. There's no way of overcoming this if he, himself, will not make the first move.

How to determine low or high level of addiction? For me it is either a person is addicted or not. Why I insist that it is impossible to get rid of addiction on your own? Because a person would never do anything harmful or bad for himself. Gambling for him is a joy, fun, something positive or good. Not a single person in clear mind would refuse that. It is like refusing a large ice cream in sunny day for lunch. You understand that it isnt food (just a snack), its calories, its wont help much, but you still eat it.
-
Overcoming addiction to gambling, often requires recognizing the problem, a desire to change, and seeking help. While self-recovery is possible, external support from friends, family, or professionals enhances the success rate.
Setting strict time and money limits, and adhering to them, can help maintain balance.

Exactly, you hitted the bottom line. It is so critical to be submitted in quitting to gamble as an addicted.
Quiting gambling at when addicted can be something easier said than to do because you might be delighted somedays to quit and possibly, you succeeded to but behold, you only had the gamble board s break in either a long or short period of time because at most intervals, you would always return back gambling.
Some addicted gamblers too are in communication with their personalities where the addicted gambler has to question itself and be the judge by himself whereas, he would be found guilty of irresponsibilities being upon himself by himself and then, he could be furthered encouraged to let it all go and there after he could become a free man from his addiction

I think one way to identify whether they are low or high addicts is to see how they respond when they get advice.
Gamblers who already have a high level of addiction are usually reluctant to accept any advice given by other people. On the other hand, if they are still low level addicts they will usually tend to listen. They also actually know what they are doing is wrong, but they cannot control their urge to continue gambling.

then that is not a self recovery because they are asking for their family to help the succession , what we need to hear here is that on their own meaning they seek no help for anyone and anything but their self only .
and also helping himself is possible but only few or a little that succeed here.

It is not advisable for us to chase our losers playing gambling in any casinos, whether it is physical or online gambling. We should avoid this habit as much as possible, because it will affect us in the end.
If we know that we are looked down upon because we often lose, that means taking a break first or stopping and coming back another day. Because your gambling is really salty, don't force yourself to play because the amount of loss will only increase.

In my thinking, an addict is an addict. I don't believe there is such thing like low or high addict. There is a thin line which demarcates an addicted gambler and a responsible gambler. The day a gambler ceases to be a responsible gambler he becomes addicted. A person who is responsible some times can go out of his budget but that doesn't mean lack of control. I will justify this by an instance. I am not an addicted gambler but sometimes, after placing a stake, I might miss out on few games and then I can decide to pick out some coins to place bet on those games due to the juicy odds. Most times I win. So, since I always have that consciousness I am still a responsible gambler. Addiction simply means lack of consciousness. When you are addicted, you can't control how you gamble.

Yes, maybe we have different views on this, and that doesn't matter to me, because I understand that we will definitely not remain the same in terms of thoughts or opinions.
I also usually do the same thing as you do, but it is still within the limits of what I can afford. Usually when I still have a little money I bet again, but even then with a nominal bet that is not large or small money, and several times I win too.

So, its a bit dificalt but it's still possible to make significant progress on their own.
It could be self-awareness (recognizing the problem). Setting limits.
Seeking alternatives or self-exclusion.
However, complete recovery is often challenging without external support, because its important to noting that any addiction is still in the psychologic plane.

It is possible, if only the person really wants to quit the habit then, he or she can stop it by his or her self. Doe it us very difficult for someone to quit an addicted habit, but if you really wants to quit then you can, but it will take time...
-
It is possible, if only the person really wants to quit the habit then, he or she can stop it by his or her self.
No, I think it's not possible to give up on addiction all by ones own self because an addict never knows that he/she is addicted to gambling and that's why it's not possible for someone to end something whom he/she is unaware of.
That's why I believe such addicts need someone else's help to realize that he/she is addicted to gambling and that someone else could help the addict with ideas and supervision so he/she may slowly start getting unaddicted.
-
Yes, an addicted gambler can help himself. It's often said that the advice given to oneself is the most effective. Without going too far, I used to be an addicted gambler until the day I made a decision never to engage in problem gambling. Though, initially it wasn't easy because sometimes I still go back to gambling against my desire but gradually I stopped. I believe other similar stories like mine circulating online lend credence to the fact that a gambler can help himself overcome addiction.
Well, I always advise that gamblers should be responsible in their gambling because escaping addiction is not easy. It is easier to prevent addiction than to try to overcome it.
-
Aside counselings, can an addicted gambler ever moderate himself all by himself to quit or limit his gambling addictions?
From what I have seen, it is hard for an addicted gambler to be able to moderate their gambling addiction by themselves without requiring the services of a counselor or their friends or family members to help them out. Stopping the addiction to gambling is not an easy one for someone who is into it would stop easily.
I have seen many who have tried to stop their addiction to gambling but it was unfruitful because the friends they have are addict gamblers like them, and the place they live they have gambling houses around them. Stopping gambling in those instances will be so difficult unless the addicted gamblers begin to cut ties with their friends who are gamblers and also change.
-
In fact, the only and possible first way for an addict to heal and get rid of that addiction is only possible when he decides himself, way before considering to call for help from anyone else as a friend or relatives, the first very crucial step is admitting to reality of being an addict. The point where gamblers thinks they are just playing and under control while everything is different and they already lost control is the most dangerous period and point of addiction, recognizing that you are addicted and losing your savings or worse is important. If that person himself didn’t admit to the facts, than it’s hard for others just to put themselves inside his head and activities, knowing that online gambling now is accessible in any place and everywhere.
However, healing from this addiction in a very better way is when you tell and face your relatives, even going to a rehabilitation center where they treat similar cases might be more effective and easier for that person returning to his normal life.

I am certainly not in doubt to your opinion but I find it hard to believe that an addicted gambler can be able to quit his addictions.
To me, he might want to quit but does not think him alone can successfully make it a reality and subdue his addiction.
Fighting addictions out has to do with disciplines and I do not think any addicted gambler can afford to discipline himself on that note because it would be a denial of enjoying himself. It can be possible to happen but not easy. I can still be submissive to say yeah, a mean addition gambler can still make it a reality
-
"Aside counselings, can an addicted gambler ever moderate himself all by himself to quit or limit his gambling addictions?
aside counseling, it is very difficult for an addicted gambler to limit or quit gambling because addiction goes beyond the physical, as I said is not possible, but if there is any possibility for an addicted gambler to limit gambling it is 1% out of 100%. Though that's my opinion.
-
For me yes. It is because we can only help ourselvessince we all know that we are the only one who knows the root cause of our addiction. By assessing ourselves we can figure out what is the best thing to do and what not. Though third party intervention is common but it should start with ourselves. If we are part of the problem then probably we are also part of the solution.

There is the counselling from an external source, and self counselling which is the counsel that you give yourself. An addict can help themself, If they can be truthful with themself and can exercise a high level of discipline. Truthfulness to self requires you constantly remind yourself of the reasons why you need and have decided to quit gambling, while the discipline is so that you are able to hold on to the decision you have made regardless of the challenges you will face.

For me yes. It is because we can only help ourselvessince we all know that we are the only one who knows the root cause of our addiction. By assessing ourselves we can figure out what is the best thing to do and what not. Though third party intervention is common but it should start with ourselves. If we are part of the problem then probably we are also part of the solution.
Believing in yourself is the only way to get out of any addiction. But once someone gets addicted to something, it becomes very difficult for him to get out of it. But willpower is the most important to break any addiction, because only a gambler knows what he is capable of and how mentally tough he can push himself.Everyone has their own way of thinking, so one can try to control oneself as much as one can, but at times one may fail but one should not give up.
-
In order for an addicted gambler to help himself, he must have a certain willpower and motivation. I forced myself to give up excessive gambling because it took up a lot of energy and time, but it was not easy. I constantly felt like I was about to hit the jackpot, but this only led to a deeper problem.

For heavy addiction or serious addiction, it is difficult to expect the gambler to recover by himself. Logically, the gambler won't be addicted if they know how to limit his gambling activities. Someone becomes addicted because he failed to limit his gambling habit, he did it excessively. So, in this case, he needs his close people to help him. And he probably needs experts or doctors to give special treatments.

Aside counselings, can an addicted gambler ever moderate himself all by himself to quit or limit his gambling addictions?
If he has fallen into gambling addiction, it will be very difficult for him to recover on his own. Or to really come back to your senses and not be addicted to gambling anymore. The percentage is very small. And this seems quite impossible, unless he has not yet entered a real addiction situation.
Because of the nature of addiction, don't even think about stopping or getting better, if you don't do it, you can become very stressed and depressed. This has really affected his mental and psychological condition. So, to recover, he usually needs help from other parties. Whether it is someone closest to you, a friend, or even a professional who is designed to help someone get out of an addiction situation.

Gambling addictions is caused by aggressive stakes which the gambler needed to recover back his lost and then he may decide to quit or stop chasing after profits but while on the context he would always keep up loosing.
His grieves of unrecoverables would always justify his action at the points of aggrieve ness.
Aside counselings, can an addicted gambler ever moderate himself all by himself to quit or limit his gambling addictions?
A man can make any impossible task possible if he wants to. Here a person must succeed in recovering himself from gambling addiction if he goes ahead with his willpower. But a person can never recover from his gambling addiction if he doesn't want to. All the gambling addicts we see around us who can't recover from gambling addiction are basically not trying on their own. If they had tried themselves, they would surely have been able to get themselves out of addiction and create a better life.

Aside counselings, can an addicted gambler ever moderate himself all by himself to quit or limit his gambling addictions?
Every addicted gambler makes the mistake of losing a gambling game and then managing the money anyway, and somehow managing the money, they gamble again. Gambling is losing money and they realize that it is wrong for them but still they cannot come out of that mistake. When he gambles and loses money he becomes more excited and more excited he gambles with more money resulting in him losing money again. There are many differences between an addict and a normal gambler. A normal gambler will never make the same gambling decisions as an addicted gambler. He always thinks and thinks about what might happen next and then makes a decision, which is why normal people are generally less likely to make these decisions than addicts.

Aside counselings, can an addicted gambler ever moderate himself all by himself to quit or limit his gambling addictions?
I think it will depend on some factors:
1. The amount of losses - The higher the loss that he got, the more depressing it is to the gambler especially if he's just an average gambler. It will be more depressing if those money will be used for something important like paying bills, or buying medicine, etc.
2. The reaction - It's kind of connected to the first one, but his reaction to his losses will determine whether he can help himself in times where he's at its lowest, or he will be needing the help of other people.
These 2 are I think factors whether a gambler will need help from others or not, but most of the gamblers are seeking help to other people because they can't do it by themselves. Addiction got them really bad that they can't prevent it only by themselves. Quitting in gambling is like quitting in your vices. It's hard but doable and sometimes, you need help from other people.

The lack or the absent of a capital may force a gambling addict to quit gambling for a short while but if he find way to get some money then i think he will be back at it again. For me, rehabilitation or counseling is the best way to treat an addict and this needs strong family support.

But it is still depending on the gambler. Even if we assume that due to the reason of having no capital to start gambling, is why he ends up quitting gambling, if he decides to quit it is still possible if he insists on helping himself. Initiating to stop gambling all by himself is possible by taking the initiative to start looking for ways and of course, some family or close friends, to at least have a conversation with the gambler. Having a conversation can help to have a realization and also to kill some time and forget about the gambling activities until it becomes a routine.

When a gambler learns to love his money and himself, he will surely be able to get out of the addiction. Everything has to be thought for oneself, the money is exclusively my own and if we lose that money by gambling like this, then we should think in advance what will happen to us later. Once you get addicted it is difficult to get out of that addiction but people can do anything if they try. Doctors always say one thing that the patient's self-confidence and recovery will make the patient half-healed, if an addict wants to, he can get out of this addiction.
-
An addicted gambler never wants to quit gambling. Because the amount of money he has spent on gambling, he will try to bring that amount from gambling. But through this thought he will be involved in gambling. If someone else informs him about the addiction and shows its negative aspects in front of him, then that person can get remove his addiction. An addict does not escape addiction because he does not realize that he is addicted. When he is influenced by another person, he can become aware of his addiction and get rid of it.

I constantly felt like I was about to hit the jackpot, but this only led to a deeper problem.
Realizing that gambling makes life more negative and feeling the need to find a way out is the first step to quitting gambling.
However, addicts often get stuck in a stage of denial. They know it's bad, but they want to do it anyway.
Distracting by finding other, healthier activities and always trying to avoid high-risk situations are tricks you can use to manipulate yourself and your mind away from the urge to gamble.

I can attest to this. While I'm not addicted to gambling, I have a family member who has an addiction to something else. It is not as bad as gambling addiction or any destructive behavior though, but they can feel the urge to do that activity quite often which can affect their health. One of them needs to drink coffee every morning, and if she doesn't she gets a terrible headache. Fortunately, with diet and physical activity, she doesn't have to drink as often anymore. One thing I realize though, she finds it easier to change her habit whenever someone reminds her or watches out for her. The same can be said for another member of my family who likes to smoke a lot.

Most time gambling addiction is generated from the habit of regular gambling, with the urge of wanting to win more or trying to recover that he has loss through gambling. It is possible for a gambler addict to help his gambling addiction mostly when he haven't gotten too dip in it . Because he may get to point when he can not fight the gambling addiction all by himself but by the help of his loves ones or therapist. And such individual may need to focus in other activities apart from gambling like hanging out with friends, doing all forms of exercise and others. To get their minds of gambling for a while.
-
Gamblers can recover from their addiction on their own, but this is rare. There are some gamblers who forcefully retire from gambling after losing their assets. But as long as a gambler has wealth and is addicted, he can never recover from that addiction. There are also some gamblers who do not claim to be addicted because they do not realize that they are addicted. To be free from addiction, the person must follow the advice of others. Not only can the other person play too much role here, but also one's own effort is needed.

Well, awareness that comes from oneself is one of the keys to being able to limit their gambling so that they don't become addicted, but the problem is that sometimes they don't want to admit that they are addicted to gambling, exactly as you said.
This is actually a more difficult thing, the problem is that when they don't want to admit that they are addicted, then if any advice comes to them they will reject it. And they will think that someone who advises them is someone who is interfering in their lives.

Yes, that is our difficulty in determining whether they are addicted to gambling or not, because we have to be self-aware to admit that we are very addicted to gambling. So far, curing people like that is very difficult to do.
-
It's possible for a gambler to help himself through an addiction, but it's not an easy journey, it takes a great deal of self discipline and control to be able to help himself through addiction. Because sometimes you don't even know when you'll see yourself overspending in gambling or exceeding your gambling limits, it is after you've exhausted all your resources that you realize yourself and then you'll be left with nothing but regret.
This has happened to so many addicted gamblers who has already made the decision of not gambling or overspending and exceeding their gambling limits.
So to be on the safest side, it's advisable to seek help from others you know can help you. Maybe relatives or better still, seek professional help. It'd be alot more easier that way.

It's not hard to determine whether a person is addicted to gambling or not. The gambler himself probably does not see it, but the people around him can see it. The hard thing to do is to provide help to someone who has a blind eye or those people who don't know how to identify the level of addiction they have. Because giving a hand to those kinds of people is hard if they don't accept any help from anyone.

Indeed, recognizing addiction in oneself can be quite challenging, and the external perspective from friends and family can be crucial in identifying these issues early. The real challenge, as you mentioned, comes in offering help to those who may not yet realize they need it. It’s important to approach such situations with compassion and understanding, maintaining an open line of communication. Providing information and supporting access to professional help can make a significant difference. It's also uplifting to see communities come together to provide support and resources for recovery.
You're absolutely right my friend.
It's almost impossible and often difficult for the addicted victims to see what the people around him sees, so people around him plays a very vital role towards ensuring he gets all the help he needs .
Criticism isn't often the best way to approach someone who already suffering from addiction, because there's always this stigma around addiction and also fear of being judged, so even if it's just a harmless criticism, they may actually misunderstand you and take it as being judged and this could make them lose the interest of recieving help from you or others around them.
So it's important to approach such persons with understanding and love, try to engage in an open and honest conversation about their addiction, sometimes, you can also share other worst stories of addiction, it'll help them not to feel completely helpless and beyond redemption.

Addiction is a condition that makes a person lose control over something.
And basically, all therapies to overcome addiction have almost the same therapy pattern.
Diverting thoughts to positive things and support from family and close relatives will speed up the healing process.
Thanks for your statement, and I hope your family is free from other addictions that may affect their health.

Im with you. Such people are often sensitive and unsolicited criticism is rarely constructive and brings no results. People without addictions must learn to cultivate empathy and treat addicts with understanding. And probably this is also easier said than done because usually the first reaction to the action of a person's addiction is negative. But still since those facing addiction may not fully grasp their situation, expecting them to respond positively to criticism is unrealistic.

Yes, that is our difficulty in determining whether they are addicted to gambling or not, because we have to be self-aware to admit that we are very addicted to gambling. So far, curing people like that is very difficult to do.
Any smart person will know that when he his losing all the money he has been using to bet, then he or she is to be self aware that the time is due to quit gambling because he is not making anything, this logic is simple and pretty straightforward, only a delusional gambler and careless person will not think this true if they are gambler.
Another thing you can use as self awareness is that when your initial bankroll finished on time and you don't make any profit from it, that means you are due to know that yes indeed you have reach the points where you have to give gambling a little break and then come back when you know your are good to go again or just quit.

As it was said, it is only self responsible gamblers can refrain from gambling addiction. And someone that is committed to gamble and became a gambling addict, it is not easy for him to come out or come back to normalcy again because at that stage he is chasing all his loss to gain than back. And the more he chase them the more he went into the deep. Because they are not even aware of themselves so when they are losing they don't even realize themselves. So the only way to make him to realize himself is the orientation from others before the self awareness can be guaranteed. All what I mean is that people have to call his attention to correct him before he will know he is addicted in gambling if not, he might be thinking that he is doing the right thing. It is not easy for an addicted gambler to realize himself that he is addicted so he has to stop. Unless the assistant of others.

Yeah, when it comes to helping someone through an addiction, whether gambling, drug or alcohol addiction, empathy and understanding is your greatest tool.
One needs to always understand that addiction isn't just a matter of weakness or some minor diseases that people understand easily, it's a very complex one, very complex that even the addicted person doesn't even understand the addiction or how to stop it.
Walking through an addiction is often pretty much one of the hardest thing anyone can do, at some point you may even get tired and frustrated with the outcome or the person's progress. Cos you may feel like the person isn't even listening to you or your advice.
But always remember that sometimes addiction can make a person display new characters that they didn't initially have at first, and mostly characters that are not always in their best interest and the most difficult aspect of it is that they don't even know how to quit it again.

From what I see in my environment, it is not that they don't get help from other people to make them aware that what they are doing has gone beyond the limits, but they have not been able to realize this, so the advice that comes to them also cannot be accepted. well.
As I said before, they must first realize and accept that they already have bad habits from their gambling activities. So it becomes difficult to bring them to their senses even though there is a lot of help coming to them.

Addiction is a big challenge for many gamblers, you can change them unless they are ready to change for good, if they don't change there is nothing an individual can do to help them.

I wouldn't completely agree with you that the reactions to the actions of an addicted fellow is ALWAYS negative. If you say it's mostly negative then I'll agree but not always.
Let's assume you were once addicted to gambling and then you finally got help and quit the addiction, are you saying that you'll get a negative reflex or reaction when you confront someone who is still fighting addiction.
In such a case, I bet the first thing you'd do is put yourself in his shoes because you'd understand what it means and how it feels to be addicted and how helpless the person is.

Its true, my perspective might have come off as a bit too general. Reactions can indeed vary widely. But what I was trying to say is that most of the time, people's first reaction is negative, and that's because not many folks have been through this themselves or seen someone close go through it. They can really relate and understand. But the truth is, most people haven't had that kind of close up experience with addiction. So my point is as a society we really need to learn how to be more understanding and supportive. We're not really taught how to handle these situations, how to treat people who are struggling, which is something we need to work on. We need to bring a bit more empathy.

So the consequences are also different when they consider gambling as a place to make a profit, because they will be out of control and will later turn them into gambling addicts. They must be able to realize things like this themselves, because this is their decision.

You're right,
How a gambler chooses to approach gambling plays a very vital role on how gambling affects the person, whether positive or negative.
That's whyany people gamble but the effect of gambling I'm their lives are often different from person to person, and this is because of each person chooses to consider and approach gambling.
When a person considers gambling as a way to have fun and relieve stress,it's often quite difficult for them to get addicted and experience terrible losses, because whether they lose or win, they've still had a share of the fun but it's quite different from those who consider gambling as a source of income( especially those without the required experience and facilities). You'll observe that these people are often more interested in the outcome of the game and when you become too attached to the outcome, your emotions start getting entangled and you gradually start losing control along the line.

Sometimes it is very difficult for a person who is immersed in gambling addiction to get out of it, because practically things can get out of control when they are playing, if a person does not have sufficient self-control, they do not have control of their money. Well, it is difficult, because it may happen that when they are looking for a way to control themselves, they want to earn more money, or recover the money that they have invested previously and that they have lost, that is something that we have to see clearly, of course, If we see it from that point of view, it can be said that when we are looking for another way of seeing things because those who control only their money will be more successful and thus can gradually alleviate the addiction.

It is very difficult for an addicted gambler to recover from his gambling addiction by himself. He will need advice from a professional psychologist/doctor to guide him properly. In this way he can reverse his gambling addiction. His will and determination are also needed.
