Stay at it DE. Soon you’ll be at 20 then 50, 100 days and then years of being gambling free. It all starts with one day at a time.
Don’t be tempted by the markets, fast rises and falls. Try not to even look at the tickers, news etc for weeks at a time. I know certain days the prospect of making money in markets is very real but you know that it is a fleeting moment and once you attempt to trade you get sucked into the vortex that will ruin your account.
Rather, Invest in yourself, learn a new skill, focus on your career. Soon you’ll end up earning more through your day job than you would’ve ever imagined.
Believe me, I have been in your exact shoes. Opening up to family is what has helped me. I am no where near to fixing my issue but I can see I am improving and being Gamble free. It is not easy but it must be done. You have to be vulnerable to those who can actually help you. Those ppl are your family!
Also, if you cannot let your family handle it, go to a financial advisor and hand them your entire money and future salary and let them manage it for you without any of your regular intervention.
