Call yourself to order whenever you're gambling and having nothing to tell concerning your experience in what you do, have a time to run a check on the kind of gambling lifestyle you've had in couple of times, access yourself on a grade level to see if you're proud about what you're doing or not, also check if there's need for an improvement to be implemented, consider the benefits it has served you in many ways and that which you may have lost at the same cause and weigh them all together, if you think you're going too far already, then try to apply wisdom and gamble moderately.
Someone who is already addicted will hardly have the time to appraise themselves. It is not only being addicted, when you have a group of friends who gamble with you and not even one of them say ill about gambling. I mean anytime any of you is called upon, there will be no objections. Maybe there is this competition among you to see who gets luckier and who losses the most. If this happens to you, just know that you are going extreme in gambling and the only way to deal with this is to reduce your association with those set of friends. If this cannot happen which I know it isn't easy to happen, try to relocate and meet different set of persons
According to what is said above, it is nice to always have a second thought about whatever thing you are doing in life.
A gambler cannot easily keep a good sense of his position when competing with friends over gambling wins and losses. He is obsessed with how far his friends have progressed and how far he has progressed. There are some gamblers who often think outside the area about their gambling, trying to understand why they gamble. Many of those who come to this realization can turn away from addiction, but the number is very small. Clearance is very important for gamblers who are or have been addicted to gambling. Because it is difficult to get out of that circle of friends.
Although some say that nowadays online gambling is more convenient they can conduct gambling from wherever they go. But still, when the place is changed, by the touch of a new good company will definitely improve from the position. Which is almost impossible in the former gambling place.
I agree with your argument, changing the surrounding helps a lot to cure yourself, if there's a self-will to help yourself it will be much easier to stop and quit, but with the same environment even how hard you try the chance is still high of coming back, those people who interact with you from time to time can easily encourage you to play back.
From that new beginning, most of the case that gambler will be more addicted compared to the first time he gets caught by this vice.
