It’s strange how addicted we become to placing a bet. When thunking about it it’s just dumb. To risk money that we have or don’t have on the outcome of a sport or flip of a card. Another person on here was correct when saying the house has the edge. Even though it’s a small edge on some game they will get you eventually. It’s just math. Today is day 1 and there will be no more. The disease have taken it’s last chunk of my life from me. Later gambling.
Jonny123987ParticipantToday is day 1 and it’s hard. All I can do is think about gambling for some reason. I don’t have much money left. I’m in debt up to my eyeballs. The only money I have us borrowed.
Jonny123987ParticipantI gambled late last night and all day. Lost more money. Great success I am.
Day 1 starts now.
Jonny123987ParticipantI decided to tell my mom about what I’ve done. She didn’t have anything to say. She’s been there and done that. It definitely didn’t make me feel better.
Jonny123987ParticipantI’m a total loser for doing this to myself. I don’t know how to go on after losing everything. I have gambled for over 20 years. Then straightened my life out. Relapsed once. Saved some back and things were going well. Then I just bet. Then bet again. Then the flood gates opened up. Now I’m lost in depression and debt. I haven’t been in debt like this for many years and am having trouble accepting it. I live alone, have no wife, girlfriend, or kids. My dog looks at me like I’m a total loser too. He seems to see the best in me always even though I’m going through hell.
Jonny123987ParticipantI haven’t done anything accept read posts all night and realize that I am no better and worse then many people on here. I thought I had a handle on this. I thought I was getting better. This relapse is worse then anything I have ever done to myself before. I can’t believe I did this to myself. I have nothing left.
Jonny123987ParticipantOh and I dropped an additional $2k after r I lost the $5700. I have lost my savings. Maxed out credit cards and am desperate at this point. One credit card let me go $5k over the limit. Not even sure how that happened.
Jonny123987ParticipantI will never gamble again. This weekend was the worst.
I stopped for a few days and then realized that I had fee’s build up that would allow the sportsbook to put $300 into my account. I took that $300 and turned it into $5700 by around 5am in Saturday morning. Then I started betting big thinking I could get it all back. I lost $5700 in an hour once I started being big. Today is day 1 for me. I’m done. I also have hurt my back mysteriously. I can’t push off on my right calf and it scares me too. Gees. I literally have no money or access to any to even eat today. WTF did I just do to myself in thefts 2 months?
Jonny123987ParticipantI know the feeling. I have been losing big. Yesterday I won 6k and blew it all in a day. My bets just got bigger and faster. I couldn’t stop even though every part of me anted too.
Jonny123987ParticipantWhy do you see no way to overcome your addiction? Tell me more about yourself so I understand the problem more.
Jonny123987ParticipantI made the same mistake again. Why do I do the same thing over and over and hate myself for it. Why have I lost everything? Why do I continue to hurt myself and never learn? I’m sick.
Jonny123987ParticipantGood for you. I should do the same thing.
