For me these days, I have found myself more often than not, giving space in between my gambling activities. I normally do so after much recorded losses and that has been my ordeal lately.
I prefer online gambling, since the cost I would incur just to take myself to the gambling house will be much in addition to refreshments and as well, the game too.
I don't want to get be so addicted for now because it would be easier for me and it will become a necessity I must fund and that's why I keep track and prefer to instead trade with the funds or better still help a friend place a bet or make a prediction.
It's good that you aware if you're spend too much time for gambling, so you can reduce it from now on. Unfortunately not many gamblers can be like you who aware and realize that they spend too much time for gambling.
You probably need to find a new hobby or use that time to take a nap, so will not really feel if you have a lot free time, that would make you to spend it for gambling.
