In my opinion, simple advice like “Stop playing, you’ll soon go crazy with your games!” completely useless. The player is simply in a state of excitement and euphoria from the game and will completely ignore such comments.
But, for example, turning off the electricity throughout the house while such a gambling player is playing on a PC, deliberately done by one of his family members, will cause anger and even temporary madness of such a player if he realizes that this was done intentionally. This is also a bad option for helping to overcome gambling addiction in the initial stages. So the family members are wondering what else can be done to help such a gambler overcome his addiction.
Perhaps you know interesting original ways?
But then write them here in the topic. Perhaps they will be useful to someone.
You're all right in your various opinions a.d to be honest here, saying a word ordinarily could help do nothing to avoid a gambler from gambling not to even talk about someone who is addicted to it, but as you've already mentioned,we can try out best in making sure that any gambling enabling environment is neglected or do without, this may curb the gambler at least when he can't find a means to gamble, another one is to avoid having fund that could be deposited into his casino wallet to be used for gambling, all these could be possible ways we can manage and deal with people like that.
I have a friend who likes to think that avoiding your problem isn't actually a way to go about but I always tell him that in a case of gambling addiction avoiding everything that might trigger your urge should be avoided and it's almost the same like mental disabled(drug addict)person who they tend to isolate because of that urge that seldom hit their mind and these lack the capability to control it and that's the same thing as gambling addict so avoiding and staying away from things that might trigger your urge is probably the best way to go about it.
Self discipline, engaging and focusing on something profitable in life is major factor to stay away. If not without exhibing these factors it's very difficult to stay away because gambling and gambling sites are everywhere in phones and environments and every day we come across different advertisement .
Perhaps, in order to stay away from gambling and advertisements for these games, which you really constantly see everywhere, you probably just need to live in an area where there is no Internet. Only in this way can you be protected from this influence of gambling temptations with a guarantee. But we all understand that this is only possible for very very hermits, maybe Buddhist monks in a monastery somewhere in the mountainous areas and in the Amazon jungle.
In all other places in the world, alas, it is still possible to access the Internet and, accordingly, the opportunity to use casinos and gamble.
And therefore, there is still a possibility of becoming a gambling addict. Including at the stage of the disease.
Lol...but as funny and factual as your statement is, you are telling the truth. The marketing that can influence us is everywhere, it is we who can refine that to know if we will accept or not, and by making sure that we stay away from them if we choose to ignore them. Well, it isn't entirely necessary for someone to go to the bush or the forest before they can do away with most of those disturbing advertisements, they can set it on their gadgets and the browsers or apps they are using. By this, they can continue to use the internet but they can go for the information outlets that have the good style of propagating adverts, while many official sites will not allow the disturbance.
But for those outlets who centre everything on the money, they will always disturb you with advertisements, but you might choose to read them or not, especially if they are not the site that is knowingly batting people to mistakingly click the ads. Many ways exist now that can help the users in this regard, even at times, when I load a site that is disturbing me with too many ads, I off my internet connection even as I do what I want to do there. Anyone can practice that as well, but it depends on the website we are talking about and what you are there to do whether or not the off of the data will not affect you.
