Hi, for me I step away from gambling for a day, a week, or longer if needed. These breaks allow me to recharge and maintain perspective.

I ensure that I have a variety of interests and hobbies outside of gambling. Gambling for me is entertainment purposes only

I set time for how many hours I'm going to play. I always control myself, I don't waste my time just playing.

For me I just play occasionally making sure that I won't be addicted because it's really addicted right? What I do is just play once a week and limit how much I just want to play and can afford to loss of course and stick with my plan, just once a week and when I win I stop and get my win withdraw lol.

Regularly assess your gambling habits and their impact on your life. If you ever feel like it's becoming a problem, seek help or consider taking a break.

hello there!! for me, before I start playing in baccarat, I always set my amount limit to play, and if I used all up the money I set, that's the time I should stop playing. And sometimes, I do some extra activities outside gambling/ playing baccarat.

I practice self-control when it comes to balance my gambling activities with my other aspect. Like monitor your emotional state while gambling. If you find yourself becoming agitated, frustrated, or excessively excited, it's a sign that you may need to take a break and reassess your approach. Also I set time limit you need allocate specific time for gambling and stick to those limits. Avoid spending excessive time on gambling activities, and ensure you have time for work, family, hobbies, and other responsibilities. Make a to-do list and manage your time effectively. And lastly one important thing is to ensure that your responsibilities in work, family, and personal life are met before engaging in gambling activities.

The first step i did in achieving this balance is setting clear limits. Establishing boundaries regarding the time and money allocated for gambling is essential. This can be done by creating a schedule that designates specific periods for gambling and strictly adhering to it. By setting limits, individuals can prevent gambling from becoming an all-consuming activity that neglects their responsibilities and commitments.
