How to control gambling addiction?

[Rruchi man]

There are many such news that they are asking their parents for money because of gambling and they torture their parents for not giving them money.

Any adult who still demands money from others for the purpose of gambling is an irresponsible individual who, instead of gambling, should be looking for ways to fix their life. If you have a friend, brother, father or person who occasionally demands money form you to gamble, and you keep giving them, you are endorsing the behaviour, and the day you decide not to give to them any longer to that end, it may become a problem then.

Though lack of working doesn't prevent anybody from gambling because that someone is not working doesn't mean they are not making any little from other business because is not possible for someone to stay without any money, as the matter of fact 50 percent of gamblers doesn't have work that is given them money but they will continue to gamble. To prevent being an addict is controlling the gambling habits weather the person has money or not because is even mostly those that doesn't have that usually fall an addict.

Gambling is not a mere issue of having or having no money, it is about how a person deals with what may be a mere hope of something that may never be realised. That is, when half of the gambling holds the jobless status, this does not necessarily mean that these people do not get any money, but all the money is used in a manner that negates necessity. Under such circumstances it has been observed that concept of logic and decision making does not tally. Despite the lack of money, it is invested in gambling no matter what the cost is to the self and the society. Here it is evident that what one should look at is not the rank of job but where the control over the desires that remain active is positioned. Without that control the gambling goes circular and repeats itself despite the amount available.

To me I think establishing a strick limit on time and money spent on gambling can help individuals maintain control. and reducing the frequency of amount of gambling can help one transition to healthier habits, but the most effective approach depends on the individual specific circumstances and needs with a combination of self awareness support and strategic planning can help one develop good relationships with gambling.

Yes, making definite limits as to the time and amount of money that are to be spent can surely reduce the possible occasions to lose control of oneself and, indeed, such regulations must have a good starting impact. However, I also believe that such a number or duration cannot prevent the appetite whenever you are under some emotions or stress. In such cases the self regulation that might have made a number of ideal contingency plans and may even tarnish the implementation procedure. I have got to know that permanence only occurs when a person identifies what makes him aspire to perform the habit, and then he disengages those urges from finding other ways of arising. Therefore even though the core answer was correct, there are other factors that have to be taken into consideration if the limit is to be observed not only this time but every single day.

Sticking to a limit means controlling one's emotions. Emotions and limitations work together. Failure to control emotions is one of the reasons it is difficult to stick to a limit. No gambler wants to lose, and when they do, it is difficult to pause and let go of the loss while there is still money to gamble with.

This anger is always difficult to control, and only a few gamblers have developed the ability to control such emotions after a loss. However, when a gambler is disciplined and not in a hurry to win or meet any expectations, it is easier to maintain control.

Gambling involves uncertainty and risk. In both situations, when a gambler wins or loses, he can make any decision based on his emotions, which can be detrimental to his gambling. Especially if a gambler loses repeatedly, at that time he does not stop his betting, but gets angry and tries to bet more, but the result is that his losses increase. If emotions are uncontrolled, he does not hesitate to lose his savings or the money he needs to use for emergency in gambling. And at some point he will become an addicted gambler. In my opinion, if a gambler can control himself after losing or winning, especially if he can take a break from betting, then he will definitely be able to control his emotion and same time it help to control addiction.

Anger is a bad feeling that leads to nothing good. It makes our impulses increase more without caring much about the consequences, but only for that moment, The consequences are very serious later However, taking it to another level, it is not possible to determine how dangerous it is That is why it is better to get rid of that anger, and if you are playing, it is best to stop playing and not continue because later you will lose a lot of money That is what you should avoid.

I mean what should we do at this time so that we can give it up and even if we play it, it is very less which does not put stress on us or cause any chaos.

If you're losing a lot and still your mind wants to play, it's better to open up to your loved ones or people close to you, or better yet, be under a physician and undergo rehabilitation to totally cure your addiction.
The hardest thing about addiction is your pocket cannot keep up, but you are drawn to playing, so we read or hear news about people taking out a loan to sustain their gambling addiction, and they end up losing more money and their well-being because of depression.

Gambling addiction did not just set in one day, it must have taken time to build to that level that it can not be easily resisted by the gambler. This is most time caused as a result of excessive chasing of losses which cannot be controlled by the gambler, and as such, they always want to recover their losses because they feel the need to do so and they forget that the casinomechabism was designed or built in the way that the odds always ends in the favour of the house so if any gambler wins, it is lick on their side.

So the first thing to do to avoid gambling addiction is to set aside a gambling budget and learn to gamble responsibly. Do not exceed your gambling time per scheduled day. Once your budget for the day finishes, take leave from the casino; likewise, if you begin to lose games too.

In first place I suggest most parents to create awareness for their teenagers as that's the age where someone doesn't understand things properly, and at that stage it's good to teach them about responsibility in general.

The ones who don't understand responsibility can be addicted to gambling and such people can't really get rid of that addiction. Once someone learns responsibility and then that person can somehow learn gambling responsibility as well and might not get addicted to gambling.

There are many of us who are so addicted to gambling that it has become a situation of bringing our family down. Although we play it through joy, we gradually become very addicted to it and we lose all our money there. There are many who have turned their peaceful life into chaos because of this gambling and even then they are not able to give up gambling. There are many such news that they are asking their parents for money because of gambling and they torture their parents for not giving them money. I mean what should we do at this time so that we can give it up and even if we play it, it is very less which does not put stress on us or cause any chaos.

I don’t really get tormenting their parents just to give them money to gamble, that’s absurd and not something commendable. The way addiction comes into people they don’t realise and the process of leaving it is the hardest of it all. The gambling industry is very addictive generally especially when you get a big win in your early days in gambling, your optimism overrides all and make you have confidence that you’ll win more games coming your way, that confidence is gradually leading to addiction and when you don’t control yourself by limiting how much you spend on every bet, you won’t know when the addiction will take over you. Prevention is better than cure, so don’t allow yourself get into it so much that you become an addict.

First, the person should know that gambling sites sets the odds for themselves to win and gamblers to be losing. If they see you on their site, they are happy because they know that more money is coming. This will let the person know that he is not likely going to win than lose but likely going to lose than win.

Second, the person should not use more than 1% of his weekly income to gamble and that should be when he has excess and enough to save.

That’s right, but most people are not aware of that, even if they are aware, ignorance will not let them do the needful.
So it’s advisable for one to gamble responsibly and also gamble with what they can afford to lose in order not to loss much of their money, they should know what gambling is all about before they should gamble.

Actually, to be honest, people start gambling just for fun, but later it turns into an addiction. To get rid of this gambling addiction, we must spread awareness. We should spread the horror of this gambling among everyone in society. Because many people are becoming destitute by playing this gambling. And of course, we should teach them to take responsibility in the family from a young age. Because if someone has family responsibilities, then he will never waste money on such gambling. So we should actually warn everyone about the horror of this gambling.

Well to an extent it's quite possible to control gambling addiction. To control it, one must first be self aware that he or she is an addict, and should be willing to receive support for help from professionals who are best equipped for handling gambling addiction.
Recovery starts with recognizing the problem, avoiding triggers, and seeking counseling and support groups for gamblers. While it may be a very tough battle so many have overcame, and have successfully regained control .

I think a professional gambler will never be able to quit gambling so easily. Because I saw a proof that I saw myself today that one of my elder brother was sitting next to me gambling and I was next to him. I noticed that he was losing more than he won. And as a result he became more addicted to it. I saw that his betting was very low at first but when he was slowly losing, he was betting a lot of money and slowly lost all his money. So I would say that if a person is addicted to gambling, he will not be able to get out of it so easily. For this, he needs to get ideas from many experienced people on how he can quit.
