The first step in overcoming gambling addiction is to acknowledge that you have a problem and that it is causing negative consequences in your life.
Develop a plan to help you stop gambling, such as setting limits on the amount of time and money you spend on gambling, finding alternative activities to do instead of gambling, and avoiding triggers.
Remove or limit access to things that trigger your desire to gamble, such as avoiding places or people associated with gambling.
Keep yourself busy. Fill your time with activities that you enjoy, such as exercise, hobbies, or spending time with friends and family.

There is no rehabilitation center to cater the people who are addicted to it. The best thing that he or she can do is to stop and the will to do it.

I am glad as public servants we are not allowed to enter gambling places and participate even in online bingo games. One must be aware gambling is always a losing game.

Wait, what? If you do it outside of your work and don't talk about it, why would they care what you do in free time?

Even outside working hours it's not allowed.

Once someone is addicted to gambling, it is quite difficult to quit. One of my uncles had this problem. He tried to quit several times but without success. Gambling has ruined his life, his job and family. Self-determination, help and support are essential for someone with this problem.

When one is addicted to something, it's not easy to actually give up on it. You could seek professional help while you find something more healthy to be addicted to.

You need to take steps to stop gambling. Convince yourself that it won't benefit you and can ruin your life and relationships.
