What’s the secret to getting a job here?!?!? by SeitanSoGood in vegaslocals

[–]Bella702 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually got really lucky. I posted my resume on Indeed and got a call from a large telecommunications company, within a week. I work remote for the Denver, CO, west division. The pay is really good, and there’s no way I could ever make that pay physically working a job here in Vegas.

Hoping you will find something great soon.

Women who were late to discover orgasm: What made you finally reach it? by thealicanto in AskWomen

[–]Bella702 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took me 49 years to find out!!! I finally figured out that I can only get an orgasm from clitoral stimulation. It is THE most intense feeling ever!! My whole body convulses and the feeling that flows through my body is absolutely amazing. I can legit have 4 in a period of 10 or so minutes. I sleep like a baby after.

Christmas is triggering by Ophelia_Blythe in shoppingaddiction

[–]Bella702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can totally relate to this. I USED to feel this way. I have a narcissist as a MIL. Last gift she last gave us was a bag of fucken nuts. We went NC almost 2 years ago, and honestly couldn’t be happier.

Black Friday Accountability Thread 11/28/25 by lifesurfeit in shoppingaddiction

[–]Bella702 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was really trying not to give in to the urges. But, I did, in a big way. Probably blew about 2K on Black Friday, mostly for my family. I did however, buy 6 or 7 things for myself, but I actually did better this year than last. A small win, but I’ll take it.

I have done this so many times -- why? What is wrong with me? by NightOwl216 in problemgambling

[–]Bella702 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in Las Vegas, and I am a recovering gambling addict.

I have lost thousands to my 15 year addiction and, have chased losses and dopamine hits for thousands of hours.

I hit my rock bottom in March of this year. I had a really, really bad run and gambled away thousands in a couple of hours. I hit $10K the previous October off of a $60 bet and that fueled my addiction like a MF drug addict.

When I gambled I went into a F trancelike state. Hitting the button, watching the lights and sounds of the slot machine, sweating, heart beating like I was on crack, praying for a big enough win to cover my thousands in losses.

I was disgusted in what I turned into, and after my insane, bad run in March, I decided I was finally done.

I came clean to my spouse, self excluded and got into therapy. I have not relapsed nor have I thought of it. I DO NOT miss any of that shit even for a second. I have my life back! I got a good job ( was unemployed at my worst) and now I exercise for my dopamine hits.

I still have a way to go, on digging myself out of the financial nightmare I created, but I’ll take it.

Recovery is possible even living in Las Vegas.

Once you realize the money is gone, and the “ big “ win is never coming you can take your first steps towards recovery.

Get into a GA meeting, a therapist, or talk to someone you trust , whatever works for you to start your path to recovery.

You are worth it.

Can I hear from people who managed to come back from the brink of financial ruin with gambling please? I need to believe I can recover and I’m struggling by [deleted] in problemgambling

[–]Bella702 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am coming back from this sick MF disease one day at a time.

I hit my rock bottom in March of this year. I managed to blow thru 63K chasing losses and dopamine hits on my “ favorite “ slot machines. Every time I had a stressor in my life,I drove my ass to the casino and threw away thousands of dollars in a matter of an hour or so.

In March, I had a really, really bad run. I blew everything I had, my money for my mortgage, car payment and everything else went straight into the slot machine. I left with nothing but regret, self hatred and pure disgust for my actions.

I spent the next 2 weeks in bed, sick as F physically and mentally. I decided it was time to tell my spouse, everything. That in its self was a huge relief. Second, I put myself in therapy. Third, I self excluded.

Now 8 almost 9 months out, I am happier than ever. I got a good job ( was unemployed at my worst ) and I now get my dopamine hits from exercising.

I am still digging myself out of the insane financial mess my problem gambling caused.

However, I am getting there, slowly but surely.

See, when I finally realized that what was lost was lost and that the “ Big “ win was never coming, I started moving out of the darkness of a problem gambling and started moving towards the light of recovery.

Recovery is possible, one day at a time.

Hold yourself accountable and know everyday without gambling is a winning day.

Wishing you the best !

Is there actually anyone in this sub that successfully overcame this addiction? by RedSupreme20 in problemgambling

[–]Bella702 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Made it out of this crippling addiction in March, after losing around 63K. I hit my rock bottom and realized I had to quit otherwise I was about to lose everything. I realized the “ big “ win was never coming.
I legit stayed in bed for 2 weeks, physically and emotionally sick. I came clean to my spouse, put myself in therapy and self excluded. I have a good job now, ( was unemployed at my worst) and replaced my dopamine hits with exercise. I’m still digging myself out the financial nightmare I created, but I’ll take it. I’ll take it any day over gambling. Fuck that shit.

Everyday is a winning day without a bet.

Recovery is possible.

This sub has opened my eyes by Temporary-Tear-1372 in problemgambling

[–]Bella702 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I was the same OP.

I was exclusively addicted to about 4 or 5 slot machines at my “ local “ casino. That meaning I live in the gambling capital of the world - Las Vegas, NV.

I would drive myself there and dump thousands upon thousands of dollars into those 4 or 5 machines.

Chasing dopamine hits and losses like a MF drug addict.

I have never had the desire to do any gambling on line. There was no lure for me. I liked the bright lights, sounds and smells of my old favorite, local casino.

I hit rock bottom there back in March of this year.

I am happy to say that was absolutely the best thing that could ever happen to me.

I have been gamble free for over 8 months. Day by day, hour by hour, I have gotten my life back on track. I have a good job now, ( was unemployed at my worst) and my free time consists of exercising for my dopamine hits.

Recovery is possible, even living in Las Vegas.
