Thank you for the all the advice!

Unfortunately the bitcoin poker site will not ban me (self-exclude) me even though I requested it via their customer service. I guess its kind of the wild west with bitcoin and they really just don’t care about problem gamblers. I don’t blame them, I’m the one with the problem.

Thankfully a couple years ago I did accept the fact that I’m a compulsive gambler, things have been much better for me since then. I’ve had relapses but then I have managed to get back on track. This was a particularly bad relapse so I’ve gotten worried. My last serious relapse was during Oct 2013.

I just need to get back on track and put my mistakes behind me, they are over and there is nothing I can do about them now. Just need to move forward!

Chasing losses will only lead to getting even further in the hole.

I think I need to focus on hobbies ect., when I’m busy I don’t have a problem avoiding gambling. Its when I have too much downtime that I tend to slide back into it, as its something to “do”.

Thank you for the replies and support. I did well after this post until today when I slipped up again. I’m going to try and post every day just to give myself a reminder that gambling is not acceptable, nor will it be any fun, so why should i do it? I shouldn’t, I’m done, over with it, not returning!

I believe I must be insane, Albert Einstein said something along the lines of doing the same thing over and over expecting different results is the definition of insanity.

That’s what I’m doing, I’m insane! It’s ridiculous, when I gamble, I lose money and don’t have any fun, period. It happens every time!

I can’t afford to lose the money I’ve been losing, so I won’t!

Sorry for a rambling post, with no real info, but I just need to vent and try to get back on track.
