I have seen several topics here and other discussion thread where many people talked about gambling addiction. So many procedures been stated to follow sequentially to reduce the rate at which one frequently visit online gambling sites and possibly their application if they do have any of them.
I remember in one of the threads I raised up a point which was long hidden as the thread became too numerous and lengthy to continue the conversation on that topic. It was my opinion to add up in profering solutions to gambling addiction. I believe not too many people saw it to to say something about it so that is why I had to bring it up as a topic hear. I want to hear your opinion and ideas towards it.
Here is it;
I am of the opinion that since gambling sites are mostly online and some has adds that pops up as advert on visited site, one should be able to disable or change their browser settings by blocking casino adds and as well disabling gambling sites on their browser settings so as not to gain access to it anymore till the number of days they deem fit to their resolve. This was just a little tip I gave as a possible solution. I had to put it up here for further discussions so that the bigger community can see it as well.
If you feel or think here is not the right place for this you can say it. I am open to corrections as we all are here to learn.
I don't think these tips will work. Blocking everything or even disconnecting the affected person from the internet completely won't help. In many countries there even exist databases of gambling addicts which should prevent them from entering casinos and gambling places but they somehow still find a way (online and crypto gambling help to avoid such bans). You need to go visit your psychologist as it's mostly a mental issue (addiction).
I believe one with self discipline and determination can be able to achieve it if they really want to Stop gambling as an addict. If a person is desperate to Stop gambling, they must set up a guideline for which they must adhere to in other to stop it. Although visiting the psychologist is part of the plans because that would guide you through the process on things to do or follow to avoid gambling.
It takes self discipline as an addicted gambler to block adds and casino pop up on your device.
