When you are tempted to gamble online, use that to motivate you to go for a walk or exercise instead.[/li][/list]
It's not that simple.
Since we are talking about pandemic here, not all have their own place to do jog or exercise. No need for others to be on healthy living just to stay away from gambling. It's about forcing ourselves to become responsible gamblers at any cost..
If you decide to gamble, you should keep a record of how much money and time you spend on gambling daily. Studies show that gamblers lose track of how much time and money they spend on gambling.
This is too much for an average gambler. Why should they record that.
Not making things complicated is the more comfortable thing to do.
Social distancing should not lead to social isolation, so talk to your friends and peers and discuss your gambling problem with them. Having support can make a big difference.
It will work but sometimes, once a gambler is now slowly turning their activity into addiction, they won't notify anyone about it. The friends or closest ones need to take the action first on that case.
