Hello to all! Another topic about casinos and games. I started playing at the Stake.com quite often. At the very beginning I thought I would just play in the evening, but one evening turned into a constant game during the day. On the first deposit, I was lucky and I took out a little, it was x3 of my deposit and I was happy. Recently, I just started making stupid deposits and trying to win something and I understand that this is self-deception, but I cannot stop and make more and more deposits. I decided to make the 1st level of VIP, but for this I need to make a turnover of 10k dollars, but I am a player with low stakes and this is difficult for me to do. You seem to understand everything that you will lose, but you go to play again. How to get rid of gambling addiction?
The urge is overtaking your self-control and this is bad and a sign that you are out of your control and you can make a lot of bad decisions and you already are making bad decisions now, but since you admit that you are doing it all wrong and asked a question how to get rid of it, you wanted to be out of your urge to continue gambling this way.
the only people that can help you is your family and a consultation with a professional, there are also a lot of anonymous group that deals with gambling they too can offer a big help for you to recover.
I don't think family can really help gambling addicts because if they were able to do it the gambler would have never become addict before. Usually family monitoring just lead to hidden behaviors and lies, it hardly prevents this kind of things to happen or to continue.
