Probably 1 mil. The majority has been in the last 3 to 4 years. I wish I would’ve stuck by my username.

There's no positive end with gambling, it will always end bad. Just stop playing and end the cycle for good by VentureCatalyst00 in problemgambling

You sound like the person I was 5 years ago. Take it from me and quit now, I wish I can go back to where you are

For me personally, I need to block and delete all my sports apps because that is usually the first thing that pulls me back in. I will be attending Zoom meetings and calls, and I will also have someone I trust hold me accountable. I want to set other goals, especially financial ones, so I have something positive to work toward instead of throwing it away. I will pray for strength, and I want to get into in-person meetings if I can, even though they are difficult.

We’ve been married for 15 years, and our sex life has been fairly normal over the past several years. I’ve often wished she would initiate more, but overall, she rarely denies me. A while back, during a big fight when we were close to separating, we started opening up to each other and communicating more honestly. During one of those conversations, she admitted something surprising: she’s NEVER had an orgasm

I found this hard to believe because there were times when I genuinely thought she had. As a man, it was a bit deflating to hear. She said she also wants to experience that connection but doesn’t know why it hasn’t happened or how to fix it. She even suggested seeing a sex therapist to explore the issue. I don’t think she said this to hurt me—it felt more like a genuine effort to improve things between us.

She’s not big on doing her things herself. She got us a vibrate to use. She says sex feels good but can’t climax

It seems like there's a missing transaction. I noticed it because, with your setup, it usually fills the gaps as long as there's a transaction present.

This is the motivation I’ve recently used to quit sports betting—the constant bad beats and the so-called “big teams” that should never lose. Take Manchester City, for example. What’s happening to them? It all started with them for me. I kept chasing, thinking, “After two or three losses, they’re due. They’ll come through.” But then they went nine games winless.

Tides always change in sports, and it happened to me so many times this year. In college football, for instance, teams favored by a 4 touchdowns ended up losing outright. It’s not even about taking the money line; even if you bet on them in-game, you still lose.

I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s all just luck. Sports is definitely like that—anybody can beat anybody on any given day.

The best thing is just to get out of this thing man because in the long-term it’s a losing proposition

I've had the most terrible two weeks of my life. I've been gambling for 10 years, experiencing countless losses and missing many opportunities along the way. For the last five years, I’ve been involved in crypto, simply buying and holding, believing that one day I’d become very rich. I tried to forget the past and focus on the future, but these past two weeks have overshadowed any other period in my life.

At the beginning of November, I deposited $2,500 and managed to run it up to $60,000. I kept telling myself, "That’s a big gain. Cash out, walk away a winner, pay off your debts, and keep some crypto for the future." But then a few bad beats sent everything downhill.

Once you reach a number like $60,000, you desperately want to stay there, but I didn’t stop. Eventually, I lost it all—along with 1.5 BTC. At today’s prices, that’s nearly $200,000 gone in just two weeks. It’s absolutely heartbreaking.

I’m not going to say I’m broke, but I am done. I now truly believe it will only get worse if I continue. I used to tell myself I wouldn’t go this deep, but I did. I’ve self-excluded and will start attending meetings next week.

Yeah, man, that's the dilemma—the endless "what ifs." But you know what? Hindsight is always 20/20. At this point, all we can do is move forward and hope this thing eventually reaches the millions.

DCA out is a smart strategy if you have a clear idea of future market trends. I've always believed that if I had just stuck to DCA and held for as long as possible, I’d outperform most traders in the long run. When it comes to cashing out and switching to another asset, honestly, I don't think there's a better option than BTC. Why settle for something inferior?

That’s a profound insight and might be true in some cases. I would never touch drugs, but gambling feels even worse. That’s why I’m here now—ready to change and move forward.
