Hey guys!!!
Would love to tell you my story, sometimes you just want to get it off your chest, especially with people who understand you. Ah yes to the people who come with such comments like "it's your own fault if you can't control yourself then don't play" we already know that!!! This is not about controlled gambling but about a gambling addiction. Ok then to me, I am 30 years old (female) started gambling when I was 24. Quite normal as with everyone else also, first in Spielotheken, on 10 cents maybe in a day 20 euros gambled, after a time were from the 20 euros, 200 euros. At some point the whole salary. After I was again and again in the minus, I took up each time a credit of approx. 5000 euro. At some point my debts were 17,000 euros and a lot of problems with my sister, actually she wants to help me but in the situation you just do not understand and you think you are not addicted. well after all the back and forth we have managed to lock me everywhere, which also went well for a while. Then I found out why I don't play online? Ok guys here it comes, I was so lucky, I won first 5000 euros could not believe it!!! then 2000 euros, again 5000 euros, 7000 euros and now it comes then 17,000 euros. that was exactly my Debt what I had at the bank. What have I done ? Everything gambled away. And of course still credits taken up because I must get everything out again. Then I started to be very anxious because my debts to the bank were already over 40,000 euros. Then I had made a therapy and was a year free of play. This year in March, as fate would have it, I suddenly got so many bills which has overwhelmed me badly, of course my first thought was I should try again to play, maybe I'm lucky again like then and can pay my bills (gambler logic). That was my biggest mistake, I was again so fast inside and had taken up again credits and where do I stand now people? I have debts of over 60,000 euros, my health is in the arsch, was 5 weeks inpatient because of the psyche, could not even sit with my family at the table for anxiety, I could not get out. People please take care of yourselves, if other people tell you something like that then take it seriously! I would never have thought that it would come so far. Ahja to my person, I have actually been a very thrifty person, which had so much fun in life, always on the road with friends, have even saved at that time my education itself (which was a lot of money) and am actually an attractive woman. I always knew that gambling is bad, my father is also addicted to gambling (my parents are separated), why I made the same mistake I don't know. You know people, money comes and goes but the health, that I can do NOTHING more because I have constant panic and fear that makes me most of all ready! I still have my job, thank God, and the most important thing is to admit to myself that I am addicted to gambling
I have already filed for bankruptcy, I hope that will be my salvation so that I can live healthy again 🙏🏻 Watch out for you!!!!

No, I don't think so. I think that you are on the right path and that starts with, I have to change something and admit that one is addicted to gambling. I can tell you a lot about fears. Of course therapy is a very good option if you can't do it alone. I wish you all the best

A sad example of what gambling can do.

Here in the forum you will of course find many who also have this problem like you, which is already good.
Be careful that you don't get extra triggered by the pretty winning pictures.

What I do not understand, why already insolvency?
60.000 EUR is already an amount, but if you have a permanent job, it is paid off in a few years with a Debt restructuring, right?
I don't know what you earn, but insolvency should only be the way out if financially everything is really through.

If even a therapy has already failed, a good friend is most important.
Who intervenes every time you get triggered. So every time you want to play again, you call this friend.
And he will tell you something.

Good luck for becoming game-free.

paying back 60000€ is already ambitious.
If she gets an interest rate of 3%, which is difficult with consumer loans
difficult, especially with the history, she would have to pay 10 monthly
600€ per month. If one has a middle income, in addition still rent must pay
must pay, that can already become scarce.

First of all, make sure that you stop gambling and get professional help.
Then the first step is made, everything else will be found. Nobody has to starve in Germany.
Good luck to you!

Of course it's tight and difficult, but maybe doable. We do not know how much she earns.

Assuming she pays 500 euros per month, which is not feasible for many, because they do not have that left after rent and living expenses, then it would take 10 years until 60 000 are paid off and there would still be the interest added here. Since I also think the ne insolvency is better, because then you have but already after 3 years here rest?

Hello, first of all thank you for your message, for the 60 000 I would have to pay off the debts over 10 years, then I would be over 40... that's a bit hard.
And so I would be done in 3 years and the most important thing I find that you can not gamble when you are in bankruptcy, of course you can always but you know that you would not be allowed to keep it anyway if you would win, think that would be for me the best "therapy" to get rid of it and to learn to deal with money again
I earn 2000 net but unfortunately have way too many deductions, credit cards, the loan of 60 000 this and that. I don't have much left over from my salary
if I go bankrupt I would have more left

kind regards

Well gambling in insolvency should not be only because you can not keep the money

If you are in an insolvency or even before the insolvency from the time you know that you are broke wasting assets such as gambling or buying expensive unnecessary things, the court can deny you the longed for discharge of residual debt

This would mean that you still have to pay off your debts after the insolvency and would not have gained anything from it

Where did I write that I would buy expensive things?
