what other situations should be taken as cue to stop gambling?
Just one but not a situation but for the situation not to occur:
Do not use more than 1 to 5% of your income as bankroll on gambling sites. The recommended amount is 1% of your income to be used as bankroll.
-
The cue to stop gambling is for the gambler to set a financial limit on what they are to spend or earn on gambling. They shouldn't exceed that even if they lose or win.
Another stop factor is for the gambler to have a time limit for any of their gambling days. Like they are to gambling at their leisure time between an hour or two
-
some gamblers wouldn't realized a cue was there for them and so they need to take that hint and stop. for some of them, a cue may be enough like going to work late and his boss called his attention about not going to work late. especially the reason was that he wakes up late as well because he have been gambling all night.
there are worse than this cue but and they are already addicted to gambling before they realized they need to stop. i've read a mother who has to sell the stuff of her daughter just so she could gamble.

For me it's the basic, if you don't have money to gamble then for sure you will have to stop it. That's what happen to me in 2015, I suddenly lost my job and instantly I was not able to think gambling until 2017 when I was able to get back in my feet slowly and earning enough money to go back to gambling again.
Want cause a rift with my family is obviously I can't provide food because I don't have income. But I did try to work in every way to make ends meet until such time that I have bounce back. It was good though that I have been tested like that and my mentally change about gambling. Although I still gamble, but not like before, I've learned to prioritized things.

You’re very lucky to have been able to stop and get yourself back together because in situations like these most gamblers tend to not know what to do and instead of them to sit back and think of how to make their life better they’ll rather go around looking for where to borrow money and gamble thinking that they’ll be able to multiply it and recover all that they have lost before but in the end they’ll only make things worst.
I don’t have any experience of addiction or using money excessively in gambling - I have always been the type that would go months without gambling and when I do I only use an amount that if multiplied by 10 it won’t still amount to anything significant so that when I lose that money I won’t feel a single thing.

If you are spending too much on gambling and cannot control yourself, you need to stop gambling because it shows that you are turning into an addict which will be very harmful to you and people around you. If you cannot control your emotions, you should stop gambling because emotions plays a vital role when gambling.

When a gambler tries to overindulge in gambling, he can run into various problems. But many of those problems could serve as signals for him to stop gambling. If a gambler loses after gambling and at some point he thinks of borrowing to manage his money, he should stop gambling. Also if someone tries to spend a long time gambling it can also be a sign to stop gambling.
-
All these you mentioned can be implemented or put to practice if the said person doesn't long control her or himself anymore because when you are at normal state of gambling there is no way you would want to stop gambling if you haven't gotten to worst State. What matters most in gambling is that you should always maintain your healthy gambling practice when it is cultured and controlled then there isn't a way both could be compromised, for instance you always gamble within your limits and without going through the maximum length that could warrant of excessive and uncontrollable acts of staking bets.

The things you already mentioned can be the basic things to stop gambling. When a gambler faces these issues in his life, I think he should stop gambling immediately. And if he ignores these things and continues his gambling then surely in the future he will be addicted to gambling and later he may have to wear a bad situation for it.
However, if I add something additionally, I will mention these things -
-Gambling should be turned off only when you don't have free time.
-At the same time, I will also say stop gambling when you are under mental stress.
-
The points you said could actually be one of the factors why people stop gambling. But will this affect people who are addicted to gambling? I do not think so.
Those who are addicted are people who will find it difficult to stop the habit, even though they may have feelings of wanting to stop, they are controlled by bigger feelings to continue gambling. They tend to follow their feelings to gamble rather than follow their feelings not to gamble.

If we do not have a stable income I think we should stay away from gambling. If we are not mentally and physically fit we should stay away from gambling as well. If we have loan money then it is best to stay away from gambling or else we end up so badly if we lose it all.

Well I think that's how it is, we shouldn't play if we have little money and the money that is little should be managed very well so that nothing is needed, it's difficult, but it is like that, however there are people who are irresponsible and even with very little money they don't give importance to the real needs and this becomes something very strong and something that they can't control well, that's why it is always emphasized that at any level of life that we have , we have to be responsible, with and without money, for me that is the only thing that is essential.

I wouldn't call that lucky though, perhaps him losing his job could be a blessing for him as it did snap himself from the addiction and then learn how to prioritized things. It's his mentality that keep him not to fall for the addiction. We have heard stories that those who have lost their job has committed crimes just to fuel their gambling addictions. We even have one women who works in the bank who steal from the elderly until she was caught. So it could be case to case basis on when we are going to stop our gambling and what circumstances lead to that. And some can't recover, and then those on the other side that got back and didn't become addicts or they really fall to become addicts but control themselves and think of their families.

what other situations should be taken as cue to stop gambling?
There are many, but here are 3 situations that I think will be taken as cue for the gambler to stop gambling.
1. If gambling causes severe financial hardship to the gambler. It means if the gambler can't pay their debts, or can't even buy important things like foods, or mortgage etc. Add also the fact that if the gambler can't pay his debt because of gambling, that's the time for him to stop.
2. If gambling causes broken relationships towards your family members. There are some gamblers who already experienced this one, and I guess it's safe to say that this will never be prevented anymore.
3. If gambling causes severe depression towards the gambler. If your experiencing stress, anxiety or even depression, I guess it's the time for the gambler to stop gambling already.
-
I think when someone tends to gamble more frequently could also be a cue too. Because how often a person gamblers should have a limit, maybe once a day, if you really enjoy gambling that much or if they have free time more often to gamble, but when a person gamblers more often or discovers he spends more time in gambling to the extent that it even interrupts or prevents him from doing other important things, then we can consider that to be a red flag or a cue that the person shoulf take a break for a while, because proceeding further with such attitude could lead to addiction.

But there are very few that consider gambling as fun activities , remember that everyone enters gambling to win so I believe that there is no way that we can consider this as funny things when we are losing our money (with small chance of winning)
- Gambling is becoming impulsive - this is always impulsive each time you drop bets and win or lose.
- Gambling causing Rift in family relation - there is always a rift in family not even from gambling.
those other 2 are already given so I need no to address .

All these mentioned above could not be enough reason to stop gambling because they are things we can control from our own personal end and not what gambling itself offers us which were at the expense of things we dislike, gambling is for fun, not a means of making money, its not a venture or an enterprise, if we are looking towards curbing for addiction in it, then we have to apply some serious means to tackle some of the ways that we are gambling in other for us to have positive impact from it.

I think that an addicted person who wants to quit can't quit suddenly, it's done little by little. It would be great if someone had the strength to face their problem and quit once and for all, but since not everyone has that fortitude and mental strength, sometimes you have to change your gambling habits. That is, if an addicted person is aware that they want to quit, it's better to look for much shorter periods of time than they had before. Also, if you're doing things this way, it means spending less money and doing other activities that consume that time you were dedicating to gambling. I think that could be a solution.

Yeah I agree, to change is not that easy or instant we need time to fully recover from being addicted to gambling. This change should atleast taken into account very seriously because if not it will just fail and continue as usual. To change is to do it not just say it. Diverting our attention to something else other than gambling might also help, keeping ourselves busy on things that will make us productive is a smart way to deal with addiction and is a stepping stone to quitting from our gambling activities.

If the person already has nothing else to bet, he would have no other option but to stop at once. U less he still will bet his life and take a loan from the casino thugs. Those loansharks will remove his eyes and sell them to the blackmarket if he can't pay on time.
Having no money is enough of a cue to stop playing. You wouldn't have to lose anything more to rethink where his path is going.

I think that is reason enough to quit, although I have seen people who run out of money and look for money, sell things, start taking out different types of credits and loans, that is when the biggest problems begin on the way to an imminent addiction , and it seems unbelievable, but sometimes the game makes people like that, they don't care if they eat or not, what matters to them is playing and satisfying their need, which seems very dangerous to me, because that brings the biggest possible Consequences.

Depression and mental instability are also big cues to stop gambling. In gambling, earning money is a must; now people won't gamble without money. If we look back, people used gambling just for their happiness and mental peace, but now, boys have made it very different and difficult. If I compare people of that time and now, I can clearly pick up the idea that people in the past were very happy in gambling as compared to now. People bond themselves to money, and when they don't get enough money, they start overthinking, which kills their mental peace. So be careful with that and stop before it ends your life.

Gamblers are just impulsive though. Many of the gambling addicts quit a thousand times and they think its easy to do thats why they sare trying to quit every time they lose money.
It occurs to me every time I losses an amount. Though I dont consider myself an addict I am quiting as well. The temptation is hard to resist when sometimes I think its my lucky day.

Yes, in fact when something like this happens to us, to have a bad experience, the quickest and most logical impulse is to stop playing, and that is like a reflex, particularly we are people who take care that bad, ugly things do not happen to us, and we protect ourselves in some way, and although most people are like that, there is also another group who think that they will lose, it is like you say, they keep trying until they realize that they are addicts and they think that the problem escalates to a much higher level, because they will not recover the money, and it becomes a problem that can affect many people.

The way some people see the bad side of gambling is like they now see it as doing drugs but if you look at it, some people are been pain because they couldn't win from the casino, they are taking their money and since they see it that way, they make way for it to be ban when the government alone is making millions from the tax these companies are paying to them.
Gambling has come to stay but if we are to consider the safety aspect of it, there should be a limitation to somethings and not eradicate it completely, they should mandate casino with rules to protect the players so they don't become addicted from playing.
-
Imho the cues to stop gambling are: becoming more independable from money (I mean one month salary) and having change of circle of interests. With that, a person would focus on other things more than on gambling (or he wont have time for gambling at all). As well as money issue (losing and trying to win back), will no longer bother a person.

The cue to stop gambling is for the gambler to set a financial limit on what they are to spend or earn on gambling. They shouldn't exceed that even if they lose or win.
Another stop factor is for the gambler to have a time limit for any of their gambling days. Like they are to gambling at their leisure time between an hour or two
I agree with you. Controlling gambling addiction requires strict time and financial limits. Both must go together; without a time limit, it will be difficult to adhere to a financial limit. For example, if I do not set a time limit for a gambling section but then set a financial limit, I may find it difficult to stop gambling if I believe I have more time to gamble. When this thought occurs, the next step is to exceed the financial limit, which will jeopardize the financial limit that was established.
It is preferable to set a time limit and then save more money by failing to meet the financial limit rather than exceeding it. Overall, setting financial and time limits is as important as exercising self-control and discipline. Without self-control and discipline, it is extremely difficult to stick to a limit, especially when a gambler is losing. This is because most gamblers are in the habit of constantly attempting to recoup losses.
-
Many gamblers can't stop. They having come to the casino with a certain amount on deposit, dream of doubling it. And when they actually manage to do this, playing roulette or poker, they do not withdraw this money. Such a gambler thinks: it was so easy! After which he again hopes to double this amount. And this is contrary to all laws of logic. After all, according to mathematics, after this you need to leave the casino.
-
In my opinion, the reason why people stop gambling is because they have run out of money and have a family, where if someone truly loves their family, they will definitely leave things that will destroy their family.

Overall, what you mentioned above is part of a gambler's signal to stop gambling, but what I think is more dominant or influential is when someone feels that the gambling game they are playing is very boring, so that this signal is the most powerful for gamblers to stop gambling.
When viewed in terms of signals in addiction and the breakdown of harmony in the household, I think both have the same relationship, namely from addiction, gamblers will often create problems and harm themselves or involve their family members, so it is clear that both have a bad impact on a gambler's life.
-

I think that simply running out of money not going to work, as a gamblers (addicted especially) are very creative and always find a way to get money.
I have seen people suggested to find a hobby. I would say that any activity, that will take time and limit free time for gambling would do. As a first step it will work definitely.
-
what other situations should be taken as cue to stop gambling?
i hope that it does not get to this point but if you are someone who is now having a hard time trying to make ends meet you should definitely reevaluate your gambling habits and whether should you continue or not
you already are having a difficult time surviving due to financial issues caused by massive losses in gambling then you should definitely stop do not even try to chase your losses and still hope that your life will get better just from gambling the chances of winning and turning your life around are too low for you to depend your life on this

what other situations should be taken as cue to stop gambling?
I should add "the lack of enthusiasm to win" as the cue to stop gambling. But i don't agree that gamble to make money than to have fun is a cue for us to stop gambling as my main objective why i gamble is to win some money.
-
what other situations should be taken as cue to stop gambling?
1. When your finances are not good enough to cater for yourself and families. Calling a quit gambling will be the best step to take.
2. When you can't do away with gambling, even when you are at your workplace, your thoughts are still on gambling. You know that you are in a big mess, that need help

No one said gambling to earn money is bad, but the only thing there is that gambling for the financial gain shouldn't be prioritized over the fun and thrilling of the game as this could result to making of poor gambling choices just to make sure you're able to secure the win. It could also result to impulsive decisions, especially when you're on a losing streak or a winning spree. If you're losing repeatedly and but still continue to play because you're concerned about the financial gains or by simply thinking about just how much you've lost and then trying to recover those losses and possibly make a little more win. This attitude and approach in gambling is called loss chasing and this often leads to even more losses. And this is as a result of prioritizing the financial gains of gambling over the fun and thrill of the game, which should infact be the main reason why people should gamble before even considering the financial benefits.

I think the best sign is when you see that your money is going down in value, if I have a Strong Capital , and suddenly I see that I am losing 1/4 of it , then that would be a Warning for me not to play anymore. There are some who go overboard and risk 50%, I couldn't do something like that , however for me the money would be my Maximum warning, there is no other way, but as I said before, that doesn't happen anymore because if I only play with the goal that I want to lose or the goal that I am willing to lose , all those problems are over.

If you have to wait for the value of your money to decrease before you can stop gambling, you will have problems gambling. The best way to gamble is to gamble with what you can afford to lose, so if a gambler defines responsible gambling as when the value of his money begins to decline, it is already too late because such a gambler must have exceeded a reasonable gambling limit in order to feel that his income is declining.
Thus, I recommend that a gambler shouldn't wait for such a moment before gambling wisely. The best way to gamble is to set a limit and stick to it; this budget should not exceed 15% of the gambler's income.

If the needs are not met, then don't gamble it's good, whatever it is, never force it especially when you are in a financial crisis so immediately stop rather than force it.
I don't want to become addicted, so always set limits, especially when working, you don't have to be focused on gambling, this is wrong, you will not focus, and your work will be messed up because of gambling.
So responsibility and discipline are most important in order not to get addicted.

I disagree with you that a gambler should stop gambling when facing a financial crisis. A gambler's financial crisis is likely to be caused by reckless gambling, so it is best to avoid reckless gambling and avoid going into financial crisis rather than gambling recklessly and then taking a break once he is trapped in financial crisis.
This is likened to the saying that prevention is better than cure. As a result, during each gambling session, a gambler should understand that he is not gambling to beat the bookies, but rather to pass the time and enjoy the pleasure that gambling provides. This type of mindset will allow the gambler to stick to a budget and avoid reckless gambling, which can lead to financial problems.

-Gambling had already that bust up your life savings
-You are already putting up all the focus towards gambling and forgot your priorities
These are really just that add up, but somehow if you do really tend to look up closely or sensibly then gambling isnt really that bad after all. It would really be not that much of an issue
if you are really that having the control and moderation about playing gambling then this one wont really be that a problem. People would really be only be able to experience
problems on the time that they would really be making themselves delusional on this aspect.

This type of mindset will allow the gambler to stick to a budget and avoid reckless gambling, which can lead to financial problems.
That's what I mean, stopping for a moment does not mean stopping completely when experiencing a crisis, never force it, so this becomes reckless about it, there are still many people who force gambling to be reckless - in times of financial crisis they are too forced to gamble to borrow here and there to play.
Until whenever the bookies will not lose, this is part of the business so the bookies will be the winners, if someone thinks about wanting to win and beat the bookie then it's stupid, sorry to say that...
I do gambling at every different time, in times of financial crisis then I will not play I can already hold it because it is not addicted, then the purpose of gambling must be fun and ready to lose, so here must be able to set a budget of what % for gambling.

You should know it is your cue to stop gambling if;
- Gambling is no longer fun.
- Gambling is now more for making money than for fun.
- Gambling is causing a rift in family relationships.
- Gambling is now becoming impulsive.
what other situations should be taken as cue to stop gambling?
Worse, you have no life but only gambling, you eat, sleep, and work with gambling; that is the only thing running through your mind, its not healthy anymore, and you will stop being productive and lose your relationships with your loved ones and people around you, This is a warning, and you need intervention or help so you can stop gambling.
-
2. When you can't do away with gambling, even when you are at your workplace, your thoughts are still on gambling. You know that you are in a big mess, that need help
This should be a sign of addiction.
Another thing is when you no longer get the thrills you used to get from gambling when you newly started - you’re now going there just because you’ve been in gambling for so long and not playing make you feel weird. This is a sign that you need to stop gambling.

This is the last stage of gambling addiction. At this point in such a gamblers life he needs external intervention as you have noted. The life of such gambler will affect people around him. He becomes a nuisance to his family and the society. Cases like this is why most people believe that gambling is bad and so it should be avoided.
I think a gambler shouldn't rely on gambling to solve his need because this is one of the reasons gamblers go into addiction. When you gamble all the time with the thinking that your financial problems can be solved through gambling, there is every tendency that you will become addicted and even create more problems for yourself and others around you.

what other situations should be taken as cue to stop gambling?
I should add "the lack of enthusiasm to win" as the cue to stop gambling. But i don't agree that gamble to make money than to have fun is a cue for us to stop gambling as my main objective why i gamble is to win some money.
I think the best sign is when you see that your money is going down in value, if I have a Strong Capital , and suddenly I see that I am losing 1/4 of it , then that would be a Warning for me not to play anymore. There are some who go overboard and risk 50%, I couldn't do something like that , however for me the money would be my Maximum warning, there is no other way, but as I said before, that doesn't happen anymore because if I only play with the goal that I want to lose or the goal that I am willing to lose , all those problems are over.
Yes, if a large portion is lost by gambling then no other sign is required to stop from gambling. Money can easily express the whole matter of what I should do. Here besides money we can also figure out the issue of addiction. If a gambler changes his gambling habits i.e. spends more time there it can also be a sign to stop gambling. Because if there is any such habit he will be addicted and surely he will lose more in gambling.

Actually its not that hard to make yourself that be able to stop gambling on the time or moment that you've seen that you are really that losing much money with it.
It would really be that too impossible that you cant really be able to distinguish those conditions on the moment that you would really be able to experience it for yourself.
There's no way that you could really be able to make yourself that be assured up in speaking about on the winning that you could possibly hit up on the time that you do
gambler. There are relaly just that those individual who woudl really be that turn out to be delusional into this aspect.

In my opinion, the reason why people stop gambling is because they have run out of money and have a family, where if someone truly loves their family, they will definitely leave things that will destroy their family.
Many gamblers say that they will be able to stop only when they have absolutely nothing left. One gambler went to his grandmother in the village because he lost everything. And even the apartment. Also, his family broke up - his wife left with the child. But what is surprising is that he was then able to set up his business again and become a full member of society. He has not played gambling for a year and a half.

You make a fine point, there are so many signs and cues that should make people to take a break from gambling, and these signs when they come are very obvious and can be easily spotted, so except you just decide to give a blind eye or you're already addicted to gambling that you can't quit anymore, you should be able to see the crystal clear signs and just take a break. Just as you've rightly said, spending too much money on gambling could be one of those signs, especially when you start spending money meant for something else, or when you start exceeding your limits and budgets, then you'll know that it's definitely a good time to take a break, because when this starts happening, then there's a thin line between the gambler and addiction, during the early stages of these symptoms and signs, it's still very possible to take a U turn and avoid getting addicted.

I think that the most dangerous sign is lying. When a gambler starts lying to family and friends, especially about money, it is an alarming sign. You need to be extremely honest, no matter how bitter the truth is. Therefore, lying can be considered a red line in gambling.

You make an amazing point mate. I can't believe I almost left that out, lying or hiding one's gambling habit from their families and loved ones can indeed be considered to be an obvious red flag, this is so, because gambling is meant to be a fun and enjoyable event and there's absolutely no point or reason to keep such a thing a secret, except of course there are some skeletons in your closet, and that you're obviously encountering some problems in your gambling journey, like when a gambler starts overspending both time and money in gambling, he may start to lie and hide that aspect of their gambling habits because it becomes kinda shameful for them to admit that they're uncontrollably spending way too much time and money in gambling.

What happens here is that what is important is that when you are going to play you always take into consideration the risk of the money, because if you don't have money you can do absolutely nothing. Those who think they can play and play and forget About the money , let themselves be carried away by the scams and apart from everything stay there in the casino waiting for a miracle, sooner or later the casino will give them the surprise of keeping their money and them still playing, The worst of all is that when they don't realize what they have lost, well, yes, they end up being addicted.

Thank you. I just watched interviews with people who suffered from uncontrollable addiction. And almost all of them said that lying is the worst thing. Because it destroys trust, and trust takes much longer to restore than any amount of money. And it is more valuable than money.
-
If you know that you are not winning and losing everytime. The it is better for you to stop gambling because you are just making the company more richer though the house always win but at least make you win sometimes and not to lose at all times. And if you know that you are about to be addicted in gambling then you need to give a break so that mind can be diverted to another thing before you come back again. Use wisdom to play gamble.

Well, your opinion is for gamblers who seek riches through gambling. Otherwise, a gambler who gambles for enjoyment will not stop gambling because he is on a losing streak. The truth about gambling is that whether you win or lose, the bookmakers always profit. The reason is simple: all players cannot win all the time, and winning is such that at each gambling session, only a minority of players win, and the losses of other players offset the winnings while also generating profit for the gambler.
Based on the foregoing, a gambler should not decide to quit because he is losing. If a gambler continues to wait at this time, he is making a mistake. A gambler is supposed to establish a mean before beginning any gambling session. This mean will serve as a check for the gambler, preventing him from wasting time and money.

Yeah you're totally right.
Trust is a very essential component of any relationship, a relationship without trust isn't complete at all and just like you've rightly said, it takes way much longer time to gain back trust, especially when it's been lost as a result of lying or deceptive acts. I used to have a friend whom I adore so much and I gave him the access to ask me whenever he needed financial assistance or any other kind of assistance, and whenever this friend of mine comes to me for help, I'd always help him out, not until when he told me that he urgently needed money for his sick mother's medical bill, and I gave him the money as usual, but I was so fucking disappointed when I found out this friend or mine used the money I gave to him to gamble, and that was the day I lost the trust I had for him and stopped offering him help.

He has not played gambling for a year and a half.
A gambler can do whatever he wants if he truly tries do that. When the gambler lost his family and apartment by the affects of gambling, it was natural for him to break down. It was difficult for him to return to the previous position. But he did it. For this he was only away from gambling for a half and one year. When that person gambles he conducts uncontrolled gambling which causes him to lose everything. In my perspective gambling is not a cause of destruction for a gambler if he conducts gambling within control and does not use gambling to fulfill any purpose.

Truly, whether gambling is destructive or not depends on the gambler. If a gambling controls his gambling rate as you noted by sticking to a budget plan it will be difficult for gambling to have a negative effect in the life of the gambler. However, when a gambler lacks control then it wouldn't be long, gambling will affect his life and relationships. This is so because addictive doesn't ring bell or sends signal to a gambler, it grows gradually the more the gambler gambles without precautions.

At the end of the day if a person Manages to lie to others with their playing style when it is bad, and they hide it because in reality it is lying to themselves, and there is nothing worse when someone tells themselves lies, then this is something that we should see, players in casinos will Always have and will come to do new things and as long as they do not win and if they are entering into addiction it is the worst because the person Continues believing and believing, that is the Worst , then one as a player has to be mature in every sense.

Even a skillful person that win money frkm gambling most often does give it some breaks when things aren't working out for them. That's their own way of risk management, they stay out gaming for a while and then come back again after sometime or even having a long term break to chill with their family and friends.
That's exactly what some gamblers don't understand, the casino aim is to make money and not a play where they can friendly with you. They have their targeted revenue and a gambler is supposed to have his own too and when it is not working, kindly abort and give it some rest.

That is the point to remember, they are also in business and they want to make a profit, so never think that this can be a place that can always make money. The number of losses is more than the number of wins that we can get.
If they intend to make gambling a safe and friendly place for their users, then they themselves will go bankrupt and we will not know gambling today. So we also have to use the right logic.

Most of the gamblers have no these management skills and they are only interested to play gamble and aiming to win at all time which is not possible as well. And give it a break is an effective gambling risk management because it will give you some times to rethink well to some back and also giving the thought to change some games and patterns of gambling. And as you said, casinos are not there to make friends with you through the games, but they can only give you bonuses to patronising you to continues playing their games. Gamblers should know some of the management skills in gambling to avoid excessive lose.

Therefore, responsibility is important in gambling otherwise it will all lead to addiction.
Always be able to control what has been set from the initial budget do not when it runs out we add it again then this can be out of control.
Addiction will not be felt immediately and it is gradual, if you do not realize it will be financial ruin.

Medical record is one of the reasons why we may have to stop gambling, being broke is another reason for us to stop gambling and lastly, another reason for one to pause or lay low from gambling is when there is no access to gamble, maybe where we live in we couldn't locate any gambling casino or we have no access to a mobile or internet connection and thereby couldn't gamble as we so desire.

Regarding medical records, I agree with you. Gambling is not good for people with high blood pressure. This is because gambling is full of surprises, which can lead to additional health problems for a gambler with high blood pressure. This is especially important if the gambler is known to gamble with more money than he can afford to lose. If proper precautions are not taken, this situation can result in death or deterioration of the gambler's health. Thus, such a person should not engage in gambling.

Most gamblers never look for any medical records related to gambling and that's why I don't think they'll even consider it as a cue to reduce their gambling urges. Most gamblers already know a lot about the broke gamblers and still they doesn't care because they believe that if someone got broke it's his/her problem not our.
Finally, it's not possible to have no access to casinos these days because most of the gamblers live in areas where they have their internet connection and even if a country somehow bans gambling they can still use VPNs and other such tools to visit those casinos and fulfill their gambling urges.

The cue to stop gambling is for the gambler to set a financial limit on what they are to spend or earn on gambling. They shouldn't exceed that even if they lose or win.
Another stop factor is for the gambler to have a time limit for any of their gambling days. Like they are to gambling at their leisure time between an hour or two
Most addicted gamblers set a limit for themselves and still end up blowing their accounts on multiple occasions, so it's not enough to just set a limit without being disciplined. A gambler with no self control can easily throw all their money away when they start losing forgetting that they set a limit for themselves. This isn't the best solution to some addicts, they need to find other ways to mitigate their addiction or perhaps quitting completely

You're right. The emphasis is always on setting limits, but people have failed to recognize that it is one thing to set a limit and another to stick to it. This is analogous to a student who establishes a reading schedule but fails to adhere to it. This has no meaning because it is equivalent to not setting a timetable.
The preceding demonstrates that sticking to a budget is more important than creating a budget. When a gambler sticks to a budget, it makes sense because it protects the gambler from excessive gambling and addiction.

In addition to what you said, I think that how a gambler has orientation determine how he is going to become as a gambler. Many people don't get good orientation about gambling, just money determination and nothing comes there head after that and this has lead them to where they are not supposed to be in the first place.
Some people are lost in gambling because of this orientation I'm talking about. Some people when given another orientation difference from what they have gotten, they do change but some of them remain in that stage forever until when their mind is prepare to change for good.

You both are correct about setting limits and sticking with them. Which we know is a discipline that can help one to achieve that when the body temperature is on the rise to continue gambling, not to go home empty-handed.
There are many times when the urge to gamble for more comes, it's the staying discipline that helps one to counter it despite setting a limit for gambling.

Nobody can tell whether he is disciplined or not until he is able to resist the urge to gamble. I have seen most gamblers claim to be disciplined because they do not have enough money to gamble, but once they do, they gamble uncontrollably.
So, in my opinion, discipline is only established when a gambler has the means to gamble but chooses to resist the urge to gamble. Such a gambler deserves to be praised for his discipline and self-control.

Finally, it's not possible to have no access to casinos these days because most of the gamblers live in areas where they have their internet connection and even if a country somehow bans gambling they can still use VPNs and other such tools to visit those casinos and fulfill their gambling urges.
Are there any countries out there who are preventing their countrymen to access these online gambling websites? I mean if it's regulated then it's an additional income for them, and that would be beneficial for the country.
Anyway with regards to this one, this is also one of the problems why the cases of gambling addiction is increasing on a rapid pace. Smartphone + internet connection = easy access to these online gambling sites, and we all have those 2 things that's for sure. No physical casinos around? Just deposit on the favorite gambling website that you want to use. Just by looking at the trend, it will not stop anytime soon, and probably we will be seeing more of these gambling casino websites in the next 5-10 years. I just hope that nobody here will get addicted to gambling.

Finally, it's not possible to have no access to casinos these days because most of the gamblers live in areas where they have their internet connection and even if a country somehow bans gambling they can still use VPNs and other such tools to visit those casinos and fulfill their gambling urges.
Are there any countries out there who are preventing their countrymen to access these online gambling websites? I mean if it's regulated then it's an additional income for them, and that would be beneficial for the country.
Anyway with regards to this one, this is also one of the problems why the cases of gambling addiction is increasing on a rapid pace. Smartphone + internet connection = easy access to these online gambling sites, and we all have those 2 things that's for sure. No physical casinos around? Just deposit on the favorite gambling website that you want to use. Just by looking at the trend, it will not stop anytime soon, and probably we will be seeing more of these gambling casino websites in the next 5-10 years. I just hope that nobody here will get addicted to gambling.
aren't Muslim countries banning casinos on their countries?
seeing casino apps are still working even if the country is banning casinos. people are still going to be playing. teens today are downloading sports betting platform apps on their phones which they are already funding their accounts with venmo. seems like the payment method these days doesn't care whether the accounts are used in gambling but back in 2000, they penalty us for using our paypal in gambling.
i guess crypto needs to be centralized for people to be prevented from gambling which authorities can penalize wallets. ;D
