General When to say goodbye?

[Janina]

Have you ever thought that there is a time that gamblers should stop gambling, other than when they are starting to show symptoms of addiction?

Unless you a pro, a time comes when you don't have all the time to go to the casino. This can happen both willingly or unwillingly. When this happens, a lot of gamblers start going slow and eventually quit altogether.

I think once a very close friend or love one tell you its becoming unhealthy for you then its time for you to stop.
Or if you yourself notice that its becoming unhealthy to you then stop, all things can controlled with enough discipline and help.
Just be sure to seek help when needed, do not be scared or be ashamed the bravest thing you'll do is seek help when you don't know what to do.

I agree, don't be afraid to ask for help. =)

Gamblers imo should stop if they are using money they can't afford to lose-and if they are tempted to risk more when they gamble alone.

As a gambler (and assuming you are not a pro) you have to balance your books often. It doesn't make sense to keep using your money and not making anything out of gambling. When you are no longer using your winnings, that's the right time to STOP!

Well if addiction symptoms occur that will be you go signal to stop and seek help if needed.
Addiction can be detected from the get go, why most people find it when it is severe.

If it hinders you connection with Family and Friends.
If start to be a problem.

You can stop anytime, gambling is not binding a man to do it.
Gambling is a mental state, a state we can control.

 

[Cara Clementina]

Anytime, when you feel uneasy, uncomfortable and unhealthy.

When I feel not gaining mentally and as game is should be fun, so when frustration hits then thats the time for me.

Easier said than done folks. Once you start gambling, I believe that some level of addiction sets in. I recall the times when I'd bet almost on a daily basis. It didn't immediately occur to me that I was losing a lot of money in this way. It took a lot of time to finally say goodbye (albeit for a really short time).

Everybody experience the same, however I believe that we all know what is right from wrong.
We know who we are and how we react to things, we control our body not the other way around.
It boils down to what is more important to you.

People do have late symptoms, and yes it will to hard for one self to say he/she is addicted.
He/she might even deny for most of the time he/she will confronted from/with it.

You'r family is at stake then that is a start to think if you need to stop.
When your tired also or your loosing to much.

Once a gambler, always a gambler. It isn't easy to walk away and no one will ever convince me otherwise. People stay away from it if they have very pressing commitments to the extent that they can never spare even a minute to go to the casino (be they the brick and mortar ones or the others found online).

 

[kenzow]

I don't know whether stopping completely is possible. A seasoned gambler can only walk away if there's something else completely taking away their time. I can't think of something else that can make someone walk away. A losing streak causes most of us to take a deserved break.
