Gambling addiction in general: The experiment (at least one month)

In the month of August, I want to make it so that I do not play for a month.
For many this may sound simple and cheap, "what only one month?".
Personally, I have never managed to do that (offline game store has).
This is basically to prepare for the future, because it is clear to me that it can
can't go on like this, because if this goes on, I won't have a long "fulfilling" life with
the shit.

I make here extra a thread open, basically for myself
So that I myself am always reminded of what I want to create.

How about you, how long was your longest time without playing?
-> For me, it was the last 2 years not even a month and in the arcades in the area I have house ban (even issued).

Many greetings

Tobi

Hey Tobi, that has nothing to do with cheap. I begrudge you from the heart that you make it
If you have packed a month, it will be the next time a month and a week and so on, until you are completely out

Never look at a relapse as a setback, because relapses are normal. You just have to do better next time

My longest abstinence was 6 months, then I unfortunately started again

I also think it's good to take on something like this. My longest abstinence was 4 months and after 4 months it is somehow easy and you suddenly have more money in your account and feel freer and safer. Nevertheless, I have unfortunately started again ...

But I have to say that I often have periods of abstinence of 1 - 3 months. Otherwise I would have been living under the bridge long ago ...

After my second longest abstinence in 2014 / 2015, I actually had no desire to gamble anymore. I then cashed in small amounts every now and then and then I got the profit of my life in various casinos and it became worse than ever before

Why did I grab the win of a lifetime when I was actually on my best behavior. This is really material for conspiracy theories - is really very strange!

I would simply like to express that I keep my fingers crossed for all those who try it and think it is the right thing to do.

I have been a dry alcoholic for 6 years (there were 2 small relapses). It has been a rocky and difficult road, but you can make it out of an addiction (any addiction). Even if it seems so unattainable at first

Congratulations on being sober. I'm glad I didn't have a real predisposition to become an alcoholic - otherwise I definitely would have. I drink when it still comes 2x a year. I am "only" a heavy smoker and a heavy gambler. The addictions that are directly harmful to health are still the worst. I quit smoking a year ago for 2 months and felt like I was born again. The difference was so incredibly huge that I am at a loss for words. I can recommend this step to everyone. The first 7 days are extremely hard, the second 7 days are already realatively easy and afterwards you feel as if you had never smoked.

I made the mistake of stressing out and thinking I could quit at any time. Often tried, but unfortunately never lasted longer than 3 days.

What you have done once, you can certainly do a second time! Do you think it worked for me right away? Countless own attempts to stop, two inpatient detoxifications...And then with once (at that time a great woman entered my life who helped me tremendously) it worked. I don't miss anything anymore. And I haven't smoked for many years.

When I have a lot of stress, I have discovered other things for me. I think you need that kind of compensation when you have stopped an "addiction"...

Try e-cigarettes, I quit without problems for 2 years and have zero cravings for cigarettes. You have no withdrawal, can dose the nicotine super down and it is allowed everywhere where smoking is prohibited. I can recommend it to everyone. Easier than cold turkey withdrawal. Vaporizing is much less harmful than smoking, because no tar, no combustion and no other pollutants such as formaldehyde, hydrogen cyanide, etc..
