How can a real gambler get out of his addiction??
What is your reason for gambling? Do you want to make money by gambling or do you gamble just for fun?
My answer will go in this manner, when the reason for gambling is known and clarified then one can really know how to get out of his addiction. If you're gambling for fun it's should be specified or if you're gambling to make money that should be specified also, that way you can access your habits and know if you're doing too much and try to reduce it gradually.
Therefore, every gambler or bettor should keep a notebook or an Excel spreadsheet with all their winnings and losses, which will show absolutely clearly in numbers how profitable this hobby is at the moment?
Also, an excellent test of the absence of addiction is his ability to temporarily give up gambling and do his own thing or communicate with his family. And if such a gambler does not think about gambling very often, then everything is fine with him.
