What are your thoughts? Could a problem gambler quit slowly and expect realistic improvements?

Different approach for different gamblers, for some gamblers, their approach to quitting will be to struggle to reduce the number of times they gamble, slowly until they can now control the habit, deciding if to gamble or not. For some other gamblers, stopping once is the best way because they will not be able to pass through the discipline of slow reduction. As a gambler who will like to quit but cannot, think of the other addictions that you may have had in your life and reason how you were able to overcome them. If you are able to remember correctly, maybe you will be able to know if the slow or sudden approach is your style.

I don't think gambling addiction can be solved overnight. It never was an easy task, it never will be. Yes, there are different approach available for different individual. It was my family in my situation. They helped me greatly to overcome my gambling addiction. With time I started spending more times with my families. Additionally, I kept myself busy with work and certain extra curricular activities. With this I didn't have any time left to gamble again.

If you are addicted to gambling, quitting gambling can be even more difficult than quitting drug addiction. Because gambling in some countries is legalized, they do not prohibit people from gambling. And currently, online gambling is growing widely. We can play anytime, anywhere.
A person with an addictionan addict wants to quit. Only he can decide. Relatives and friends can only support him to a certain extent. Quitting gambling was tough because no one could stop him if he still wanted to continue playing.
