Honestly now I feel something different in my life, I really feel calm and my money can be balanced because there are no unnecessary expenses such as the budget for gambling, the point is that my obsession with gambling especially on winning has been greatly reduced due to boredom, I don't know if there are gamblers out there who also experience the same thing as me, and my advice if you already feel bored like this then don't let you try to return to gambling because it is still a thing that might eventually tempt you back, for myself honestly I prefer to keep myself busy with many other things.

I am glad to listen to your own story about quiting of gambling. Gambling at most times comes with negativity rather than positivity.  Although one will say, gambling has some advantages, however the disadvantages of gambling are much more than the advantages.

1. Gambling have caused so many people into psychological problems, because of the high level of probability and unpredictability, many people become highly tensed and frustrated and as such becomes mentally derailed.

2. Gambling makes a lot of people to enter into financial crisis. As bad as the economy of the world is, gambling have caused many people into financial issues and debts thereby affecting them in life.

3. Gambling is regarded as a game of pleasure or a game that people engage in for fun. Because of the nature of the games, it makes it difficult for people to leave it even when they are recording failure. They still stick to playing the gambling games and deriving pleasure in them.

One have to be truly honest about gambling, and the honesty is that, although gambling  have his advantages, but the disadvantages that comes with the advantages are humungos.

Yes honestly I am very grateful when people face a lot of gambling problems whether it is addiction or impact or problems as a result of addiction but it turns out that I myself can do something like this where suddenly and without any intention a sense of boredom comes to my mind even though there is a chance of winning which is always a goal by most people but this is really boring for me, you are right friends overall what dominates in gambling is the bad impact whether it is losing a lot of money or even to stress, one of the reasons is because obviously the percentage of winning is much lower than losing and this is also what makes me even more demoralized to gamble again.

Of course, gambling is very mentally and psychologically involved and if you engage in it with seriousness especially if your main focus is on winning then obviously you will feel psychological disorders because the final result is more losing than winning and that makes us emotional.

As pointed out above, the winning percentage is much lower than the losing percentage and this is confirmed by the fact that you must also know that losing at the end of the session is more common than winning and obviously for people who overdo it in trying to win then usually the opposite happens, they suffer from the problems you mentioned which is one of them losing balance in terms of finances.

That's right, it's nothing more than a game of chance without any certainty as to the end result, so the best advice is to be a responsible gambler.
