Staying away from gambling can be done easy if you ask me because the fact is that gambling is a easy thing to stop with.
I've been addicted but I also stopped easy, I searched another hobby and I was soon done with gambling...
Easy for some people, maybe you are part of those but majority of our gamblers here struggle in staying away. And beside why would anyone stay away from gambling, gambling is beautiful and it brings excitement to our life. Maybe we should just try to learn how to manage our time and our emotion.
If you can manage your time, emotion and money on gambling, then I think you don't have to quit. But the problem is, we can't manage all of them especially if we are already an addict. We just want to gamble more and more, bet more and more. Never mind the losses, just gamble until everything is gone. That is why we need a sure way to get out of gambling, because we can manage that 3 at all.
