Almost like pokies have been scientifically created to be addictive or something.
They have stopped because there are NO pokies right now to play. If people do not do the follow up stuff which is more to do with psychological addiction, they will be back doing what they were doing as quick as a flash. The physical addiction to their addiction of choice usually only takes about four weeks to let go of one habit and start developing a new way of doing things. Practice and repetition.
Its the psychological process that is tougher and more rigid until the person becomes self aware of the triggers, that send them back to the machines otherwise; they simply slide sideways into another addiction and many think they are cured because they are not doing the pokies. All they have done is to swap one addiction for another.
No benefits of stopping me from the pokies.
I have lost thousands of dollars from all the winnings I would have made. It is just a conspiracy against me,
bulldogs turfed pokies.
