I’m so happy to hear from you again, brother. I’m glad you are doing well and are managing through this like a champ. One day at a time it’s going to be possible to beat this monster.
Everyone experiences defeat but the strongest person is the one who is able to pick himself up, lick his wounds and make a comeback.
You are an amazing person with an amazing soul that deserves all that is good in this world.
God bless you too.Hey guys it’s been long since I last posted here in July last year. So much has happened since then. So I had around 7800$ in my account but couldn’t stop gambling until I lost each and every penny I had in my account. I got my salary for July that end month which I also gambled it all away in one day. I was dead broke, took a bank loan, gambled that away too. Took a salary advance for August and you guessed it right I gambled all of that away as well. I was broke and in debt. I successfully managed to quit gambling and have been gamble free for 7 months now. I have paid my debt and my account balance is now 12k$. I thank God I successfully did away with this monster called gambling and I’m never looking back again.
Thank you very much guys for your advice. It really means so much to me. I woke up today morning feeling so depressed. An idea to deposit another $1500 came to my mind and I successfully suppressed it. I banned myself from the online casino I had been gambling on and now I some relief. I know it will be hard to accept the losses but I can recoup all that I have lost in about 4 months. So 4 months gambling free is my target for now. I want to be gamble free forever. I have asked my bank to reduce my maximum withdrawal limit. I hope I will succeed. Thank you guys
Hello guys. Hope you’re all doing well. So I was able to go gambling free for about a week but I unfortunately relapsed last week. I discovered another online casino and was able to win back my losses of $1500 in one week. My account had risen from 13k back to $14.5k But you guessed right I didn’t walk away, kept gambling, lost about $3000 this Sunday, chased the loss and luckily won back my losses and was back to $14.5k. Come Monday, lost $4000. I had decided to quit by Monday, deleted my online gambling accounts and my browser history, but relapsed in less than a day. I won $3000 back and my account was now $13.5k not that bad compared to tje $10.5k I was the previous day. I considered myself extremely lucky as I was able to win back a huge amount tnat most gamblers weren’t able to. I told myself I had to quit but no I didn’t. I kept on gambling, won an extra $500 only to lose it all the $500 back after just one hour. I lost another $900, $1200 and 1500 and lost them chasing the $500 loss. I had reached maximum amount withdrawal from my bank. I waited for midnight, lost another $2000. I feel extremely devastated and disappointed with myself. I have been beating myself up for the last few hours as to why I coud let it get to this worse. I have lost more than a half of my years savings in just one day. My leave is ending next week BTW and my work is a very challenging one where you literally reap what you sow but I recently I seemed to have lost the value of money, putting huge bets more than my salary on a table game. Thankfully I still have around $7800 left to my name and I have no debt but I will need about more than 4 months to recover what I just squandered today. Gambling isn’t life
I did almost the same thing on Thursday. Discovered an online casino, won about $1100 in one week. Lost it all in 20 mins plus an extra $250. Chased my loss by making a last bet with $700 just 6 hours later after creating an account here. Lost it.
Don’t make hypothetical bets, they are the worst. They give you false hope and then you lose your money when you bet for real. Close all your online betting accounts and delete your search historyThird day today of being gambling free. I have banned myself from the online website I had been gambling. Life isn’t bad. I hope it will stay like this. Once again thank you guys
First I want to really thank all of you for caring for me and your great advice. It matters greatly. I know what I’m about to say will be a very big disappointment for everyone here and definitely myself. So I went out for a walk, went to the bank and withdrew some money and did some shopping. I bought two pairs of jeans. I felt ashamed at myself for trying to bargain with the shop keeper when I knew I was betting large sums of money for a color on roulette. It was all ok until when I was about to sleep when I relapsed and loaded another 700$ into my online account trying to chase my losses and you guessed right, lost it all in the blink of an eye. This might come as a surprise to you guys but I just felt this burden that was inside my chest just suddenly disappear. It was at that moment that I really accepted my losses and I now know I cannot get my money back. I now accept that there is really no shortcut in life, you reap what you sow. Good thing I have around 14k$ saved in my bank account and I promise you guys I will never put my money on online gambling again. Thank you very much for your help guys, I’ll be posting my progress. Cheers
Thank you very much for your reply. It really means so much to me. Imagine I just deposited another 50$ and lost it again. This urge won’t go away for some reason. I’m now down 250$, that’s my money. I would have deposited a higher amount had there been no restriction. I’m going to delete my browser history and try to go out for a walk. Really hope this helps. Thanks again for the advice. It really means a lot.
