    How can I get over this?
    If its the dopamine rush you crave and not money, just bet like 50
    cent parlays or 1.00 bet on bovada.Get your rush and not lose the house..

      You will feel like this is tiny amounts of money won but you will adapt and get used to this betting style. You won't be able to stop cold turkey from gambling if you don't have any hobbies and passions outside of gambling.

      This..Its all
      about the action man..

        GA if you want to or need to quit. based on your scenario you need to quit.

        take up video games, the gym, reading, even movie watching. anytime you want to place a bet move money into a savings account you do not touch or even see.

          Whenever I dont want to bet, I think of how much I've lost and how impossible it is to "get even". Why get further in the hole?
          this is exactly by what i mean by addiction or compulsion... u really like something , u cant UN-LIKE it .
          so ur still an addict.... what i meant was there is NO such thing as an EX-addict.. simply an addict who dosent use anymore...

            i think that's simplifying addiction a bit. Addiction means your body or mind needs something to function. Liking something or knowing that it will feel good doesn't mean you're addicted to it.

            I know a blowjob from a whore will feel good. That doesn't mean I'm ending my marriage to get one

                No. It's about winning. If you don't want to make money I see no point in this.

                    it is that simple as u explained. u know a blowjob from a whore will feel good, but that dosent mean u have to do it .

                    its really liking something , but choosing whether to do it or not. the factor here is post "anymore" .

                      99% failure rate that strategy and ends up in death or real rehab or homeless

                        so ur saying hes fked 99% death/ rehab/ homeless.

                        how is that helping him ..

                        i was simply trying to explain addiction earlier . .

                        u can still be addict, but simply choose not to do it . its that simple .. and no way around it .
                        if u KNOW ur addicted. ur always going to like it and u CHOOSE to accept it . and CHOOSE to not do it again.

                        what is rehab / therapist going to tell u?
                        they're not going to say some magical combination of sentences for him to go .. "Oh yea , ur right . i'm going to stop, NOW"

                              It’s ridiculous for people that keep advising to bet smaller amounts. You are not going to get the same rush betting $100 a game after you’ve been betting 10,000 game. That’s like telling a cocaine addict to stop using and just drink coffee.

                                    if anything this guy says is true, then he needs to wake up and stop being a little bitch. one thing i've learned in life is to be extremely grateful for what i have. no matter how bad things get, how much i wish i could be this or that.. i know there are always millions of people who would love to have my life as is.

                                    if his wife is so loving and beautiful and he has a great job.. then he should be focusing all his time on her, starting a family and enjoying all he already has. stop being a greedy POS and wanting it all. get a freakin' xbox or something and play some madden when you feel like betting. any and every habit in life requires you to just use common sense and self control to slow down, eventually eliminating or replacing it.

                                            Of course she is. She is a gold digger and dug into the wrong goldmine. This clown is done.

                                                              I am craving action very badly everyday. I told myself I would stop 2 weeks ago but I haven't been able to stop.

                                                              How can I get over this?
                                                              If you want to stop the withdrawal symptoms, that's easy. Just make bets.

                                                              If you want to not bet, that's beyond the scope of anything I know.
