Re: Giving up gambling is not easy

I also like to know and want to learn if any member here can share his idea how to stop my addicting with gambling, specially in sportbook betting..

There are a lot of ways to stop your addiction in gambling.

1. Try to look for some activities that can eat the time you use for gambling.
2. Consult a psychiatrist or a mental expert for helping you out what to do.
3. Learn to appreciate your parents help, they will be the most effective people to help you out with it.
4. Use your money wisely.

This is just some on my list.

I think when the problem is too big already you have to do the number 2 in the list, you cannot quit or give up without the help of other people and since there are professionals that can help you, you must be willing to be help. We need to change from bad to good and it is just right to be submissive all the time and follow what is right for us to continue the healing process. Never underestimate gambling addiction as it has ruin many lives already.

I agree, it should be tried out though there are people says that this isn't helpful but for me this will help you out. Even it will cost money, it will be worth it if those severe addicted gamblers wants to give an appropriate solution to stop their addiction. Just follow what will be the possible solution or suggestion he/she will give to you.

I think the third option would basically have the best impact if you're really considering quitting. Just think about what you're parents are going to go through if you continue with your addiction. Though if you are able to gamble responsibly, I don't think it has to come to it. You can gamble if you want but you have to know the responsibility that comes with what you're doing

For me first and the third point looks very effective, It is not easy to quit gambling suddenly so first try to kill your free time with any other work or any other activities. Once you do not get time to play gambling then slowly you will come out from this addiction. And The parents help is much needed, the experts just give you suggestions, but the parents will take care for you until you come out from this addiction.
