Stupid question, you can not simply uninstall this app?


I mean is always a bit stupid as a self-affected try to give any tips on what you can do against Gambling addiction, but currently it runs let's say very stable. There were times when I spent my whole salary within a few days so that I could satisfy my addiction by taking away returnable bottles and somehow getting a few euros for the Spielo. Today it's different I only play online which doesn't necessarily make it better but I somehow managed to put everything on the back burner and prefer other things that are more important. For example I made it my hobby to work in the garden and take care of my plants and I'm also a passionate amusement park addict and always looking for a new adrenaline kick. Besides I play a lot of Overwatch (PC game, I don't know if that means anything to you) and there my thoughts are less on the slots
I feel like people like you and me kind of need that thrill... gambling in some way. Long before my time I have known this thrill feeling. Back then, we used to trade Yu-GI-OH! Cards and also gambled for them... with the cards you could make duels and the winner gets the card or cards. You might have to look for something like that maybe something in online gaming or something less costly than gambling

I wish you good luck and a lot of strength on your way and hope for you that in the end everything will be fine. It is important that you talk to your girlfriend about it and seek any support you can have. All the best!

He should first talk to his partner about it, so that she can support him and always make sure that he does not throw this Betblocker down again from the PC to gamble again in the casinos. Usually does not last long the will, if one is not yet ready to make the way with the Famillie to talk about it with an acute play problem.

@DrPepper: No, the app cannot be uninstalled without a code from the manufacturer. You have to completely flatten your computer or completely reset your phone or tablet. Just have a look at the FAQs at the bottom of this page: http://betblocker.org/

As a layman there is no way to bypass this - I just noticed that it is not so reliable on Apple computers. But it is on iPad and mobile.

Okay so far so good, but what if you use various anonymous browsers or try to visit casino sites in incognito mode?

I am also concerned with the methods to surf the internet anonymously.

the tool only blocks the corresponding pages. If you are surfing like this, it doesn't change anything. You are virtually going through a VPN connection that simply prohibits you from accessing about 20,000 casino/bet Provider sites.

MarioD wrote on 07/14/2019 20:49: Hello, since it's my first post here and I was just a silent reader, I want to introduce myself. I am Mario 27 years young and I have no control over addiction anymore . It all started harmlessly 8 years ago times a 20 euro bill thrown into the machine on 40 tray Book of ra played and outside the free spins 5 explorers get . I thought cool 400 euros, yes that was the road to hell. I don't have a lot of debts Ca 8k because I never really gambled over my limit would be paid off in 3 months. The debts are also not the real problem but I just feel nothing more in me, I think happiness hormones have died in the years. I also see this in the relationship I really love my girlfriend, but I somehow feel nothing when I am with her neither sadness nor joy and this has been going on for a long time, I really do not know what happened to me. I haven't told anyone about this because first of all I'm embarrassed and secondly I don't know how anyone is going to help me out of this. I am a trained investment fund trader and therefore have to do with shares, privately I also trade and there I do not have this loss of control it is really only with the online slots, casino was never something for me. Does anyone know the feeling or did anyone know this and could help me or any tips . I already have a counseling center.
Thanks

Honestly I see it more as a psychological problem, I would strongly advise you to make an appointment with a psychologist, coldness is not normal and is usually triggered by traumatic experiences and requires urgent medical attention.
