Hi Kathryn, thank you for questioning me, sometime I am too out of control.
OK, I understand what are you worrying about, alright, I do it now, put myself to self exclusion for the last site. Hope I can stop thinking about it.

Hi Geordie, the cash back is the losing I made on weekend, they will give me back 10%, I want it back as it is part of my money, after that I will exclude myself. I am trying to quit, please tell me off when I have a bit of hesitation, I feel good of talking to you guys as I never mentioned to any of my friends that I am a gambler. I need friends to encourage me.

Thank you for your encouragement, I really need it. I started gambling since I was 18. I caused a lot of trouble, it is too long to tell, I can write a book of that. I had a million turn over company, cause of gambling, I lost everything, my company, my husband and all my money. I always tell people that I am a very smart woman but I don’t know why I lost totally in front of this “GAMBLING”. I never told people of my gamble addiction, so I never can get encouragement like you gave me just now, I appreciated so much thank you.
I am off today, I read a lot of people’s story in this site, suddenly, I went into my betting sites and put myself into self exclusion for 5 yrs but I still have two sites not yet done as I want to get back my cash back next monday, then I will do the same thing, hope it is a good start, and hope I can keep my own promise and try not to gamble anymore. I tried before but it only lasted for three weeks.

I won from gambling most of the time, that is the reason why I keep on gambling but when I won, I never want to leave the table as I want to win more, then finally I lost all winnings with my deposit. I hate myself, I put myself into a dead corner, I wish I can control myself from playing online.

You did it very well, I wish I can be like you. I put myself into self exclusion for a few site already but once I have spare money I will find another site and open new accounts, after I lost all my money, I regretted and close the account again. Honestly speaking, I won most of the time but I never wanted to leave the computer, finally it went back all to them – lost all winnings plus my deposit. I am a single mother, my pay is just enough to live and REPAY all my debt from the past, and I need more money to live so I gamble because I think if I can withdraw my winnings on time but it never happen to me. I know my thinking is wrong but I can’t control myself. I know very well how to stop myself from gambling but it never stays long, maximum two weeks.
I am a loser, I can repay all my debt quicker if I don’t gamble but I always remember those days I won.

I can understand exactly where you are, how you feel as I have the same issue as yours. Closing account is not go enough, you should do the self exclusion for one or two years, by doing that you cannot reopen the account.
Try to stay with your family or someone when you have nothing to do as it is so easy to turn on the computer and gamble, but if someone is next to you, you dare not to gamble in front of them.
As I always say, winning is not a good thing for gambler as they will continue to gamble, they think they can win more next time. Now you should forget what you won or lost, try to make the financial plan properly. Listen, life is hard, it is harder when you don’t have enough money to live but at least you stop bleeding.

It is too dangerous to drink and gamble at the same time, your head won’t be clear, you lost of course, then you go again as you want to get back what you lost last time.
I have a problem and I think most of the gamble addict has it too, that is when you won, you felt fun and excited plus some winnings on hand, so you want to win more and go again. When you lost, you want to get it back so you want to go in a couple days or even the next day.
So if you want to stop going to the casino, DO NOT think what you had in the past, winning or losing, they are not important anymore, it happened, money has gone, face the reality, life is hard but you can see the light soon if you walk away from the casino.
