How can we avoid addictions in gambling?

[EluguHcman]

A person from my country took $1000 and went to gamble at one of the betting shops in my country. This person lost all the money. It turns out the money wasn't his. In a panic, the guy asked two friends to call his house and say he'd been kidnapped and that they had to pay $1000 in ransom. The family became suspicious because they recognized the voice on the phone, so they reported it to the police who, within a few days, located the people on the phone and they confessed to the fake kidnapping.

This is a sign of how gambling, when people gamble with money they can't afford to lose, can lead people to commit crimes. It's important that people spend time having fun in the real world and less time gambling in casinos; this is one of the best ways to avoid addiction.

This is indeed a similar of my encountered story where I used my school fees to gambling and I lost it all in a card game back then in the high school.

After I realized I was going to walk out of the arena down home while I have engaged on unnecessary debt because I knew I was not going to tell my parents but yet, I could not afford the lost school fee so I had to cook some stories like I was attacked and so I how I lost the money to the armed robbers.

Deep inside me my conscious was judging me badly that I was unrest, then I had to drop out of school for a term as part of my punishment for loosing guarding and I regretted evey of my decisions rh then.

And it is no wonder you are worried because gambling, though entertaining to some people, can be serious problem when it comes to addiction and hence key to being safe is to practice careful gambling by setting strong rules with respect to your money and time. You should not gamble with money that you cannot afford to lose you should not use money to pay bills or to borrow, and should stop as soon as it is lost. Manage your behavior through time limits, do not use gambling to fix stress or boredom and stay away from places that can make you to bet. To be on safe side, you should gamble no more than once week or once every four days 4 days month and you should never make gambling replacement for work or family time.

To understand gambling addiction, by examining the behavior of an addicted gambler, one can easily understand the difference between an addicted gambler and a non-addicted gambler. An addicted gambler cannot get a good idea about his addiction. But those who are not addicted can easily understand the difference between an addicted and a non-addicted gambler. Above all, I would say that if a gambler can control himself in any situation, then he can protect himself from addiction.

Abnormal ways such as don't gamble what you cannot afford to lose in gambling, once you have that word in your mind when going to gambling it will prevent you not to be addicted to gambling,  Never you make your winning do or die when losing in gambling, many gamblers have fall victim on this when using some funds that made for other things to gamble and start regretting why they used such amount of funds in gambling and you will begin to see foolishness from such gamblers and you don't need to ask where such gamblers are heading to either addicted to gambling or they will be addicted to gambling in future.

Try to gamble for fun instead of chasing profits because the more you do that you might start getting carried away,  this is one of the fastest ways that people get addicted to gambling. Whenever you notice that you gambling excessively take a step back and just quit for a while. Giving yourself a little headspace is capable of helping you avoid getting attached to it. And for people that are addicted it's something they can solve if they are determined to

Most people initially intend to gamble just for entertainment, and winning or losing doesn't matter to them. But over time, many people get caught up in the profits and gradually forget the original purpose of their gambling. Gradually, they gamble for money and become addicted without even knowing it.

So the idea of ​​gambling for fun will not be enough to help us avoid gambling addiction. Therefore, in addition to that, we need to plan and set limit the time and money spent on gambling. Always stick to your plan, don't gamble randomly and without discipline.

I agree with you, when you win some money in a casino, try to enjoy that money, if you are greedy here you will face losses, try to be satisfied with the amount you have won, and limit your gambling activities and stop gambling later. Excess risk only leads to losses. So the only right decision is to limit your activities, try to enjoy what you have got now.

That's what you should do Those who just play and wait to have more and more eventually see their casino balance drop, and when they realize it, they can't withdraw any money or enjoy it I don't complicate things If I see I'm winning and it's a good balance, I withdraw it and spend it on things I like, It's not much, but even if it's just a giant hamburger, I'll buy it.

To avoid gambling addiction, we must first warn ourselves, because only if we can control the abnormal behavior that arises in gambling, will it be enough for us to naturally enjoy gambling. Those who cannot control themselves in gambling are the ones who mainly show signs of addiction, because when a gambler is afraid of losing, his mood and behavior start changing more. In this way, people gradually become attracted to gambling and finally the signs of addiction appear in him. Lost money can never be recovered from gambling.

I agree with you. The only way to overcome gambling addiction first is to understand gambling very well and go about it just the way it is. If you try to go more than the limit in gambling both in money and time aspect you can end up becoming addicted.  The only way to over come gambling addiction is to gamble with the money that you can't afford to lose. The problem in gambling that makes people to be addicted is greed and lack of control in gambling.

In fact, the idea of gambling for fun is now so overrated that it can become an excuse when we start to get sucked into more and more intense gambling activities thinking that this is fun when we know that the original intention was to win or possibly try to recover a previous loss.

In gambling, there are restrictions on oneself in terms of time, the amount of money set and other restrictions related to gambling that must be emphasized because if we only see gambling from the aspect of fun without thinking about all the possibilities that occur especially for the worst possibilities, we can get carried away with the flow that actually makes us destroyed even when we don't realize it.

A practice that needed a strong discipline if you really wanted to be safe while you are involve into gambling, knowing that even how entertaining and enjoying the risk of getting hook deeply and become addicted will harm you both mentally and financially, you need to keep that control over your emotions.

Those practices that you mentioned needs to be taken seriously, it's the possible ways to avoid getting addicted and keep you in-line with your place setup and strategy.

The abnormal ways of gambling are not hidden, nor is it difficult to identify. Every gambler knows that, only that some gamblers do not know about some ways because they have not experienced them. While most gamblers just decide not to care about what is wrong or right.

Every day we talk about chasing loss, chasing profit, knowing when to quit, and gambling with money that we can afford to lose. I am certain 80% of gamblers know about them. Yeah, the problem is not about identity but about doing the right things.

Yeah, I think in the end the key thing is to decrease the frequency of gambling itself.

That's if the person actually wants to quit gambling.

If in the end the person enjoys it too much then it would be very difficult to stop, since they don't really want to.

This is a wise write-up,many gamblers who have become addicted felt reluctant on identifying the abnormal ways in gambling.Identifying the abnormal ways in gambling makes a gambler make informed decisions towards a healthy gambling habit and it also helps one from not passing through similar errors most addicts went through as a result of their uniformed decisions.Just like the topic says, how can we avoid addictions in gambling?one of the way that would indeed help from not being addicted to gambling is by learning from the mistakes of gambling addicts, pay detailed attention to their stories and experience so you don't go through the same struggles.

The key lies in each player's mindset. If they view gambling as merely a form of entertainment (not a means of making money), I believe that this mindset will prevent them from engaging in harmful behavior, such as betting beyond their means. Gambling addiction is actually quite easy, and I don't think most people realize it. For example, by continuing to bet even after losing, they are unconsciously becoming addicted to gambling.

And if you don't want to become addicted to gambling, it's best to gamble only occasionally, and even then, within a set budget. Occasional betting doesn't mean always betting large amounts.

Some gambling platforms have features that allow users to set time limits or loss limits. However, such restrictions are usually disabled by default, i.e., it's assumed that gamblers are sufficiently disciplined and will enable these features themselves in the settings if necessary. However, in my opinion, this is unlikely in the case of highly addicted gamblers.

In fact, the main thing here is self-control. The one who cannot control himself basically becomes addicted. If he could control himself, he would never have become addicted to gambling. If someone thinks that he is becoming addicted, then at the beginning he should pay attention to what needs to be done to remove himself from now on. For this, he can follow some steps if he wants, he can take a break from gambling for a few days. He can keep himself busy with other recreational activities instead of thinking about winning or losing. By paying attention to some things in this way, it is possible to be saved from gambling addiction.

 All gamblers are associated with different problems depending on individual but the greatest challenge associated with gambling is addiction. Addiction is the only problem capable destroying someone's present and even future depending on the level it has gotten to except it is properly managed which we know is not easy except by the introduction of gambling rules and restrictions that may help reshape the gamblers pattern of gambling.

Most gamblers can not follow this pattern and be gambling because it might not pay them especially when they have lose so much money gambling and when it's time for them to start getting a revenge to make money from the casino, halting their games because of this settings can be very annoying for players that might not know how to disable it if it was how casino set their restrictions on players so they can be disciplined.

I think it's really simple. If a person can simply stop gambling, and never think about it again, they're not addicted.

If the person stops but then it's all the time thinking about gambling, then there's an addiction right there.

It's all in the mind really.
