I am a gambler but not a gambling addict, and I still gamble. If I have a lot of work I don't think about gambling and if there is free time I will go on vacation with my family, only then will I go to the casino to gamble. I have to control myself and know when it's time to work, for family, and to gamble.
Good for you, controlling yourself for gambling is really important to manage the rest of your life, like making the time for yourself and your family.
