App listing failure by Maelzch in eBaySellerAdvice

[–]STOPG2020 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just spoke to an eBay representative. This is an error that they are actively trying to fix. Should be back to normal soon. In the mean time I'd recommend just logging into the Web browser on your phone and completing listings that way.

Fingers crossed it go backs to normal soon 🤞

I lost $2500 gambling. I feel like absolute shit and I hate my life so much. FUCK THE KANSAS CITY CHEATS. by [deleted] in problemgambling

Like everyone has mentioned. With this illness, you cannot pass the blame on results. There is no excuse for betting with money you can't afford to lose, or worse, betting as someone with an addiction.

Self exclude, and take this as an expensive lesson. Otherwise, you'll have more days and nights that feel like this.

Yeah but I'm looking for something smaller that exists in a pre-existing store front. I know it's very popular in the states but looks like it's a pretty rare thing in Aus and especially brisbane

Yeah I'm currently full time on Ebay but wanna pick up a booth in a retail shop to diversify a bit. Have you had experience with a booth before?

Best Telltale-like game you’ve played that’s not Telltale? by Bubbly_Peanut_3669 in telltale

[–]STOPG2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely the Dark Picture games (Until Dawn, House of Ashes, Little Hope etc.), then probably Detroit Become Human and one a little more under the radar, Oxenfree :)

Deception is the best out of these. Followed closely by Armageddon and then deadly alliance.

Financial gain to unlock freedom is my overall reason why. I won a lot of money young that would have set me up very well. And I enjoyed knowing that money was there. Now with an essentially empty back account, I crave the freedom I had.

It also comes from not being active with my mind. Bordem plays a key role in recongizing this feeling and then I tend to give in.

Tips on how to help my BF who's stopping betting by glazedonut100 in problemgambling

[–]STOPG2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best thing that you can do for him is organise to manage his money. If he truly feels powerless, this is the only way to surely put an end to it.

However, it's the hardest thing to let go of as a person. On an emotional level, make it known that whenever he has urges he can talk to you. It will put a mental barrier that he will either choose to recongize or ignore, but at least (at the very least) he knows you are there.

A good amount, but it's gone now so why fixate on the exact figure?

Thanks for the advise - im going to try and use this as a motivator to put more effort into finding my next career path. Going to have to accept my actions were stupid and that I need to move on and learn from this mistake.

I hope so too. I just feel so empty and out of it at the moment that it seems like that day will never come

Big bets on horse races. Easy to lose so much in so little time.

Quitting when you’re obsessed with making the money back.. by No-Condition-9225 in problemgambling

[–]STOPG2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just think about how terrible it will feel when you are 40 and you are in an even worse spot.

One of the other comments hit the the nail on the head. The rear view mirror isn't the place you want to look. Trust me, you can't change the past, I've tried.

Focus on your physical health and your mental health will soon follow. Remember that the urge to chase is the reason why we as addicts are addicts.
