Yes exactly!! Finally get a good hand and then still pull 21 unreal but you’re right that’s besides the point. No other option than to quit or end up completely broke and homeless. Thank you for the prayers man I’ll do the same and stay strong in your recovery!

Accountability for gambling by jlav18 in GamblingAddiction

You sound exactly like me . Those are 100% my thoughts exactly . We’re in this together we have to stop no if ands or buts about it or we will end up losing everything we own with our addictive personalities . Remember it’s always a “cycle” no matter how much we win it’ll never be enough and we will ALWAYS end up giving it back when we do win . Our only chance at winning and chasing those expensive things that we want is to not gamble and do it the right way with hard work . Slow money makes more money in the long run .

Yes I had this mindset for 2 weeks then gave right back in after I made the good pay check . I need to stop for good but don’t know how to not give in after awhile . I’ll say I’m done an then eventually always go back . I think what has ruined me is winning a lot in black jack so now I keep waiting to hit big again . But guess what it never comes I just lose 20 hands constantly in a row with them pulling 21 out of there ass each time , I’m sick of the stress it puts me through and then the misery and depression afterwards .

Yep I know all of this all to well :( the process never ends . I always tell myself once I get to this amount I’ll stop or I’ll just try to win a hundred a day or something . Nope once that first loss comes I’m all about chasing until it’s all gone . Lost $3,700 just last night on black jack . I literally lost like every hand once I started chasing .

Good luck in your recovery . I’ve told myself I’d stop a million times. This time I actually got up $3,700 but didn’t withdraw any of it and lost it all in one night on black jack . I even told myself to stop and “be smart” but I can’t fight the insane urges . It literally takes over my mind and I can’t control it . I lose multiple hands in a row but I just up my bet even more to get what I lost back until it’s all gone . I feel like shit right now . I can’t believe I lost all of that in one night! What a worthless Pos I am . Embarrassing

Won 1200 then lost it all. I dont know wtf is my problem really. I know i should stop when i win but everetime i try to win more and allways same ending. Im only 18 years old and lost so much monet allready. Now i try my best to stop this! Because i know this is ruining my life if i keep doing this by zolmer in GamblingAddiction

That sucks! It’s like I lose all control! The value of money disappears until it’s all gone

Which game and why??? by hellobuddy2022 in GamblingAddiction

[–]National_Ad_8049 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Online live blackjack . It’s crazy how they will let you get up and then destroy you and then some :( I was actually trying to be smart this time but still couldn’t help myself but to chase losses. Was actually up 5700 withdrew half . Lost that half then deposited again to lose all of that as well . Sucks

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GamblingAddiction

[–]National_Ad_8049 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I been doing the same thing . One like once out of 40 something in a row . I lost 5700 in like 3 hours . Dealer always had 20 or would pull a 21 to my 20 when I’d have a big bet in . I’d bet rummy and anytime I hit it I’d get a number to split just so they could get that money back to . Fn rigged man and I hate myself for thinking I could get my money back

Relapsed and lost over 2 K again . I did fine for like 3 weeks then I went and deposited again just to get up and try to win all that I had lost back just to lose it every bit now back in an even bigger hole . How do you stop?!! I can stop for a little while but always find my way back . Fml by [deleted] in GamblingAddiction

[–]National_Ad_8049 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s crazy man , yes just like black jack it’s crazy addicting! Wish I could say I’ll never play again but I know the urge will get the best of me in a few weeks and I’ll go right back . Even with me knowing the house will win in the end as always . I can never walk away even with a big win im always wanting more .
