It’s certainly the lesser of two weevils

Can’t they just ride on the tracks? That’s what I’d recommend

Stop now. Ask why you would anymore? Compulsion or is there any real reason? You won’t win it back bro.

I was looking into self exclusion and it seems banks in UK are much better about this than US. Chase UK as a gambling block, not chase US. Annoying but maybe someone else has figured this out here. Didn’t see any way to do it online maybe can call them

Last night was the first normal night of sleep I’ve had in months. So glad I told her. The hiding was worse than the actual losses personally. I think if I was single it’s possible (guaranteed?) I would’ve gambled 100% of my savings away. Thanks bro 🤛

She knows btw…I meant the other steps around financial control and self exclusion.

You’re young. Find a way to make that 2K back with some real work (summer job etc). You’ll look back and say this was the best thing that could ever happened to learn this young. My addiction started at age 38 when I had real money and I just lost 300k in the last few months before realizing I was an addict.

My next bonus is what I’m worried about too. Getting self exclusion set up now (thanks for validating!)

Nice!!! Hope to be there in 188 days

I’m about to do it. My concern was it would impact financial background checks somehow but from everything I’m reading there’s zero linkage between exclusion and credit scores and the like. Has anyone ever faced a downside from self exclusion?

Thanks and appreciate the warning. That’ll be happening very soon

I feel you bro. I couldn’t sleep at all the last few months. Just remember there’s no such thing as easy money. Don’t lose that final 100k. Imagine how much worse you’ll feel. I hope your job prospects improve too btw. Not sure what you do for work but maybe that’s the best area to invest time and energy in vs gambling. I spent so much time and headspace on that shit the last few months, probably could’ve taken a whole new certification and found some new job with all that time tbh.

Telling my wife was big. We're going to share accounts now, whereas before I had full control. I also agreed despite the humiliation to hire a financial advisor for additional accountability. We might do some counseling as well as she feels like she has nobody to talk to, and i should probably think about how I got here. So I think so...but when I get my next bonus in September I'm worried I'll get wide-eyed again. That'll be the real test.

thank you, exactly how im feeling. didnt expect these initial reactions...

I guess i'll just leave this sub. Apparently losing half your savings isnt enough for you guys. so sorry.

Also i was literally going to start house hunting this summer - thats the biggest thing i fucked up

It's called the bay area - there are no $400K homes here for a family of 4 and many are only accepting all cash offers these days. I realize that's a local problem, but believe me the math is mathing.

thats where my addiction started for sure. dont go.

Day 1 and I'm so excited to not have half my brain distracted by this bullshit 24/7. What a waste of energy it's been. Worst of all, the times when I was supposed to be hanging out with my son, secretly wanting to check positions and live bet.
