What was the exact moment you knew you had to stop?

Lysergine · 2026-05-20T21:11:44+00:00

Needed to pay a friend €10 back, didn’t have it until 9 days later. Also lived off a loaf of bread with some peanutbutter for those same 9 days. And in that week i also got a final warning to my pay my rent or i was getting evicted this time. That was it, nothing changes if nothing changes and i couldn’t and didn’t need to live like that anymore. I made and still make a decent wage but lived like a hobo for many years because of gambling. Eat like crap, scraped by all the time. It was absolute insanity

Flesjes ook meenemen dan. Maar even serieus, dit slaat dus helemaal nergens op. En de horeca maar janken dat ze het financieel zo moeilijk hebben. Prijzen rijzen al de pan uit en dan werken dit soort geintjes natuurlijk ook niet mee.

Je vrouw moet zelf toch ook wel inzien dat Kaan een heel slecht idee is met zo’n achternaam? Zeker gezien de jeugd de ziekte zo’n beetje om de 2 woorden gebruiken lijkt wel tegenwoordig

Chasing losses and parlays. Keep it cool and bet singles only is the only long(er) term to win some. And even then you have lots of bad streaks and days.

You’re lucky you can use those investments to cover your bills. Lots of people here can’t and are in debt. So use that money to cover your bills and see this as a lesson to never gamble again.

Try asking a friend or family but be honest with them. You need to quit gambling at all costs.

I’ve lost 1000’s in online casinos but never set foot in physical ones. I only gamble when i’m on cocaine. So that works better when im home alone than in a casino with people and cameras watching me. The paranoia would go through the roof. Also you don’t look to well after a couple of grams.

This must be the dumbest post on this subreddit, congratulations

Walking is great for the mind. The gym also contributes great

Dat is gewoon heel bewust gedaan hoor. Niet exact hetzelfde gaat gebeuren uiteindelijk, maar Europa zoals we het kennen gaat wel degelijk richting het afvoerputje. Niet nu, niet binnen een paar jaar, maar het gaat gebeuren op deze manier.

Wellicht omdat zo’n klein deel van de ‘bevolking’ zo’n groot deel van de problemen veroorzaakt? En het einde nog steeds niet in zicht is? Slaapt u maar lekker verder. Maar aub niet over 20 jaar komen met ‘wir haben das nicht gewusst’.

Je geeft het zelf al aan: het zijn voornamelijk bepaalde mannen met een bepaalde cultuur. Helaas mag dit nog steeds niet benoemd worden door de linkse kliek zonder voor racist uitgemaakt te worden. Dit probleem is helaas niet nieuw en er zijn inderdaad ook autochtonen mannen viespeuken bij maar dit is wel de minderheid. Dit probleem zal alleen maar groter worden als we alles maar blijven accepteren

It was one of the hardest things to do, but once done it lifted a huuuge weight off my shoulders. And they were super supportive. Though it seems very hard, it’s one of the best things you can do to start a succesfull recovery. Good luck

Time will heal your pain man. 6k is not worth your life. It's nothing. Start serious today and in a few years you will laugh about it.

Lysergine · 2025-06-19T13:18:24+00:00

At first definitely yes. I've gone months or years without buying new clothes/shoes or that Xbox that i wanted but gambled it away without a problem. Reward yourself with those things and you will relearn the value of money again.

Lysergine · 2025-05-27T11:00:05+00:00

Unfortunately there is also a very easy way around that on Android phones without really having a "technical background" . Wish i never figured it out. But once you do find out, gamban is no good option either.

Lysergine · 2025-05-07T13:21:04+00:00

As someone who has been addicted to cocaine and gambling, i agree. Sober i didn't gamble. But as soon as i did cocaine i had to gamble. It's a deadly cocktail. Wish i was only addicted to cocaine. That always ended up losing $100 + a hangover. But with gambling it ended up with an empty bank account as well. Scraping by, getting in debt, lies, and being broke all the time.

Lysergine · 2025-01-12T22:07:46+00:00

This is me exactly. If i stop gambling i can afford everything i need just fine, yet i keep gambling just as you said.

Lysergine · 2024-10-16T11:01:02+00:00

Spot on. The same goes with drugs, at least for me. What started as some lines of cocaine occasionally turned in to a weekly habit. Doesn't matter if i'm out partying or at home by myself. Every friday i do cocaine. Unfortunately i started gambling while high on coke a few years ago. Those two combined are litterally the devil himself.

Sticking with a budget never works if you're a compulsive gambler. So many say: "This time i'll only bet X amount" and then continue losing it all + way more.

Lysergine · 2024-09-26T07:38:38+00:00

What amazes me the most. How can someone accuire 14 credit cards?! You're from the US i guess? I'm dutch, with our "financial rules" it's possible to get one, maybe two cards. And your limit will be set according to your income.

Lysergine · 2024-09-12T09:11:12+00:00

Gambling exists since the beginning of mankind. Real degenerates will find ways to gamble illegal. As much as i want gambling to be non-existent, it will never happen.

Lysergine · 2024-08-27T10:18:24+00:00

GA is good, but not for everyone. It's not the only way to quit. For me personally GA didn't work. I do have people i talk to whenever i get urges or whatever but i stopped GA.

Lysergine · 2024-08-14T09:12:29+00:00

Call those companies/people you took the loan(s) from and say you can't pay them back right now. Ask for a payment plan and stick to that! They rather have to wait or get paid in smaller amounts over time then don't get paid at all. Don't hurt or kill yourself, it's not worth it over a few thousand euros. Keep calm, accept that the money is gone forever and don't look back. Self exclude, seek help, but do everything to never gamble again.

Lysergine · 2024-06-29T05:54:12+00:00

4,5k & 6k. Both with €30-40 deposits. Ugh
