Hello together!
I've been reading here for a while, but have not yet made the jump from the addiction. After I could not sleep tonight because of it and it was really bad for me, it's time to finally let go of gambling. I have completely lost the connection to money. I am still doing well financially but I would be much better off. It all started with a big win and instead of letting that go I kept gambling and I wanted more and more. While at the beginning you are happy about a win over 1000euros, at some point it's just nothing anymore and you want more and more and higher and higher. Who knows this? How did you manage to get out? I managed to get out for 2 months and then started again. I don't play because I enjoy it but because I want to recover the losses. I am aware that this does not work and honestly if someone told me this I would ask if they are blind to know that the bank always wins. But so it is unfortunately with an addiction you see partly nothing more and when you play you are like in the tunnel
What have you done? When was your lowest point reached?
I've been gambling for about 30 years.
My most intense phase is behind me.
I was a good boy for about 10 years....
If you don't gamble too long, an addiction counseling center will help you...... .
At some point only you can help yourself or as in my case you get bored and stop or reduce your game.
I have never played to win most of the time I was aware that I would not get the money anymore.
Everybody looked at me stupidly when I said in the Spielo that I'll put 500€ on it and go to sleep.

I am happy about an exchange.
I don't really have myself under control either. I have a few points I try to stick to and a wife who holds me back a bit. I have more luck than sense in this case.
You need a strong will and the firm decision to do something. Talking to someone or addiction therapy. If you have a family, think about them. Ask yourself what you want to make of yourself.
Dealing with addiction and out for good
