Do you say you quit or just take a break from gambling? Personally I think it is important, as the latter is a kind of a foot in the door, that it won't close and always let you come back.

Well, it's in the title of this thread and the original post, maybe read it before you reply?

Well, I did read the title and the OP.

Let me cite the OP again:

Lately I felt that I've been gambling a bit too much, it evolved into a weekly event where I would spend a little bit more money than I had originally planned for.
I've decided to take a break from gambling for a while, it's been 3 weeks since my last bet.

Just wanted to make this post in case someone else has any problems with this, spending more than intended, I mean.
You just kinda get into the habit without noticing at first, but you should really take immediate action when you do.

For me it was just a couple of hundred euros overspending, maybe for a month or so.
Quitting was pretty easy, just replaced the gambling with a bit more gaming and writing articles.

Having a bit of extra cash now as well, always comes in handy

Definitely share your experiences with this, if you have any.

I think you'll agree, that the intention (take a break or quit) is not that clear, as the OP and the title is contradictory at places. This is why I asked. There is no need to be impolite.

Okay okay, sorry that I was a little bit rude. I did not have to use the word 'quit' there the first time, will change that.
The link at the bottom is just for people who might need it. Just added that out of common courtesy for people who might realize that they might be getting addicted.

You did take the time to reply and I admit you have read the thread, so my sincere apologies to you.

Though, it was pretty clear from context that I was talking about taking a break. Plus, I added that link because someone mentioned it in a reply below.

Thank you for those words, and of course apologies accepted, I admit I have been checking your thread a few times already to check if I didn't unintentionally offend you some way again... Thanks again.
