      Hello everyone,
      Today is the first time I am actually doing something to stop this nightmare.

      I have named myself from everywhere online can’t play, ordered a new credit card for which I will get hep from someone in the bank to delete my ccv.All this because I have finally reached my limits, financially and emotionally.

      It all started 1 year ago when I actually started working in the online gambling business and saw the potential of the “big” wins hidden in these slot games.Started really slowly depositing 10 euro per day and it reached my monthly income in a single day and even more. Today I am looking in my bank account and my life and I realized that I fucked up badly.My partner of 7 years left me because of my weeknes . I can’t help my parents when they need me the most. I can’t focus at work, my mind is contantly there and my brains can’t rest because of the thought of what if I recover this time my losses and win. The think is guys, if you are feeling like you need to recover the amount you have just lost and arrestingly go to deposit, you are trapped. Being trapped means that you will always try to recover what just happened yet this is not gona end up well. Not being able to talk about it to anyone it’s the worst because no one is aware of the battel you are having with your self.

      God help me, my parents need me.
      That’s my thought for now to keep me going.
      Hope I will pass through this storm and face a bright future without worries.

      I will come back tomorrow stronger, wiser and free from the nightmare.
      Stay safe people and take your life in your hands you only live once.

      Regards,
      S
