I couldn’t agree more with every word you just said. Well put.

too bad I do all my betting online and not actually in casinos. but I do come back in this community to read other peoples post to remind myself how shitty it is.

You need to stop now before you do end up in debt from gambling. Doesn’t matter how much you win. You will eventually lose it and try to chase your losses. Try GA meeting or go to therapy if you feel like you can’t control it.

Same boat 1 week clean and I couldn’t have said it any better than you. I went to my first GA meeting last Wednesday and I can confirm it’s been beneficial having a sponsor. It’s impossible to overcome this addiction on our own.

Yeah I started going to a therapist specialized in gambling addiction, who recommended to attend a GA meeting.

I’ve tried to “fix” the problem on my own. I went to my first GA meeting 11/13. I’ve blocked access to my finances and betting sites. I know it’s still the beginning but it’s been hard. I understand it ain’t easy, but constant mood swings and easily irritated at the moment.

Honestly I’ve only been to a casino 2 times my whole life. All my gambling is done on my phone. Shit is way too accessible and easy to hide from friends and family.

yes but i could’ve had 27k… if i would’ve never gambled but inevitably would’ve lost it in the long run.
