Good luck to your decision and I hope you won't be the same as others said before but later on after a month or two they come back in action.

Having another hobby which will make you put your attention and time there would solve it. Well my story, I just got my employment that really killed my time and only got few to no more time in gambling.

Apparently, from the way he has placed gambling, I am sure even if he decides to come back to gambling, it is not like he still wont be able to control himself. What he has done basically is to be in control, and that can only happen when you have the right mindset towards gambling and this is totally different when it comes to those who are addicted. People with the wrong mindset of trying to get rich from gambling and usually the ones that will not even find it easy at all to be making decisions like this.

Yeah I think it's entirely possible that I just don't gamble again, I mean I'm currently having more fun doing other stuff.
I'd also like to think I'm in control of myself, if I weren't this would have probably been a lot harder.

The thing is, if I hadn't stopped myself when I did, it would've been entirely possible that I would have gotten addicted.

That is always a better way to do things. Know your limit, be in control when you still can and try not to be a victim of your one action in the long run. The thing with being in control when you still can is that gambling has a way of trying to take your control away from you over time, if you allow it, and if that happens, it is always hard to get back as those impulses will just keep erupting like volcano and then you will just see yourself doing things you would not have done normally. In such cases, it is even better to stay away and get occupied with other things like you just did.
