I was a lot addicted but at the same time I loved designing things, so I developed my skills more and easily got rid of gambling ( though I used to gamble small )
Congratulations to those of you who managed to control themselves. It is true that to shy away from something that started from intention and then perform the way it's been designed with consistent. Then gradually we will be spared from something that we did want to leave like gambling. Without a strong and consistent intent any plans will not succeed.
