Message: [QUOTE="Evan Jarvis, post: 5403910, member: 374519"] stop playing poker is the easy option. the harder option, get your life in order so that you don't crave quick fixes and instant gratification. get away from technology, spend time in nature, spend time with friends and loved ones, eat good food, listen to beautiful music, and most importantly invest your energy into long term projects that are extremely satisfying but have delayed gratification as a key element. Ask yourself what it is you want from poker anyway and if poker is really the best outlet to find that or if there is something that would serve you better but you may be afraid of. This is a very interesting topic and one I plan on researching a lot more. I've found the work of Gabor Mate to be incredible helpful and worth looking into for anyone who is genuinely concerned that they have addiction issues. [/QUOTE]
