    Sell the gold, freeze the money on a high-interest account for a year or two. You won't be able to buy any gold back from this money.

    Other than that there is only determination that will get you to stop. Been through the same thing myself. First (in 2013-2014) it was staking. Just 2-3 weeks ago i got addicted to dicing in the donor lounge dicing thread. Lost about 300m or so. Just decided that enough is enough, and now I haven't diced for almost 2 weeks. Hopefully, I won't dice or stake ever again.

    This was most likely not much help, but the best I can do lol.

    I AVOID staking and Dicing completely. (basically all forms of gambling on RS)
    My best advice would be just not to go, ever.
    It might be a little easier for me, because I ALWAYS get cleaned. Its not even fun.
    I just went last week, lost 5M immediately, left the duel area.
    I HATE that place.

    Limit yourself, cut it off slowly. If you have to, put the gold on another account or even a friend, that's the "don't touch pile".

    Have a set amount you are WILLING to lose every day until it's 0. If you do lose, hopefully you won't see it as a loss (which would provoke you to stake more).

    All I can really say, working on it myself.

    Na man, just get the cc out and buy some more gold.
    People with gambling addictions don't know shit until they stake in this game.
    This is real addiction.

    Look at my vouches, there are some pictures of true addiction.

    Just cashed out recently though and I'm up now, after three months of almost daily spending.

    Staking Addiction

    Gambling addictions and a specific gambling personality is a huge problem.

    Personally i've only seen younger and younger people starting to become "addicts" I highly believe it's because of how easy it is to start gambling. Take Runescape or CSGO for an example.

    Back on your case. Try to sell your gold and leave it somewhere you can't touch it. Alternativly blacklist yourself from gold selling websites so you can't buy any gold at all.

    Speaking as someone who used to stake noobs for money, let me tell you: You are a noob who is being farmed for money. This isn't just staking, but a life lesson in general: In a win lose situation (GAMBLING) if you are not the professional winner, you are the casual loser.

    Staking/Gambling is a losers game in the end for most of the people so better to just quit Staking all together. Like a couple of times a year I get tempted by the duel arena and most of the times I just buy 100M worth of DH sets when I get that feeling and go pking with that. Way more fun and takes you way longer to lose that all

    Lol this is actually a good idea, seriously tho gambling addictions are harsh and incredibly serious. I've seen irl friends go completely broke because they started out doing a few duels on rs, then ended up tryna win more money for gold on online roulette lol.


    When the fun stops, stop!:sick:

    Try to be more rational. Think what you got now and remember that if you go stake, you will lose it again.
    Find good money making method and set goals to achieve wheter ingame or IRL.

    It's a slow process, but it will work eventually.
    Make no exceptions. It is hard to think about not staking anymore, so your first goal would be a week and once you hit that go for another week.
    This way you will make strong pressure on yourself not to break your streak.

    It worked for me with staking and smoking cigarettes. After 5 years of heavy addiction I haven't smoked a single cigarette for about 1.5 years.

    Good luck man.. and update us with your progress
