Brotkauer wrote on 08.11.2018 at 13:59: Whoever says, I will never play over 10 or 20 cents per spin has never really gambled!
I have a short but very crisp gambling career (almost) behind me
I also started with small amounts, but within only 6 days I have then gambled away 3000€
You can't do that with small stakes!
After 3 months 20.000€ were gone!
Since I thus our (married, 3 children house, 3 cars!) Savings with the devil.
On "urging" of my wife I am then on therapy
Honestly, I didn't give a shit about all that. Since I only gambled on my cell phone, I could also gamble while waiting for therapy. I really scraped together every cent to get a PSC. (I'm also in outpatient addiction therapy.) That went on with the gambling until August of this year.
Here it comes!
Since I suffer from a very severe form of Restless Legs, a few weeks before my first gaming attack, I was given a medication (patch) that was supposed to help me. Unfortunately it did not. Now after 1 1/2 years this was discontinued and replaced by other medications. Unbelievable but true (!!!) since the patch is gone I no longer play! Well, now and then a few free games
But I have no pressure to play anymore, my head is free for other things. I live again!
I will never claim that I gamble "right"...But in the two years it has never ridden me to put higher and it will remain so...
And good for you that the trigger was found with you..everyone who is addicted to gambling has a "reason" for it. I am a dry alcoholic and thanks to a very good therapy I now finally know what was the trigger for me..since I know it and work on it, I have no more drinking pressure...
You continue to have success with your gambling-free (???) time....
I would be careful with the statement that you will not play with higher stakes. Even if you make it 2 years, your 3rd year can be the year where you don't make it anymore. At some point you may cross the line.

Hello Dear User, any addiction is bad when it gets out of hand and becomes a compulsion. With age you learn a lot, probably you are still very young? I myself was addicted to gambling, sex addicted and fortunately never addicted to drugs or alcohol, although earlier as a teenager I drank away in every disco quite a few hunnies with friends. It was probably also an addiction. In any case, I would really look for help in your place, whether it is family to disclose, or a therapy place.

It is very important to accept that losing 100 euros is no longer the way to go to the bank or to try to win them back. Every addiction destroys in the end, that's why you need help. You have to be clear about that. You also have to appreciate every penny that you do not do as an addict. You have to learn that
From the online casino write every expense and income on a piece of paper and so you always have the costs in front of your eyes. This helps me not to lose control when playing. I have been doing this for years.
I would subscribe to what is written in the title of the thread. And believe me, I really need to know. I don't want to go into it in detail, but I have at least tried most of the intoxicants known to mankind, except for some exotic substances. Some of them in different periods of my life (I am now 40) also really over long periods 24/7.
When I was then about three years ago by the state and the courts quasi forced to stop and do a therapy, which I did not need, because I was already at that time only occasionally consumed, I have started through the contact with players during this therapy with something that had me all my life actually not even rudimentarily irritated. I could never understand how anyone could put their money into any machine. I have never seen the inside of a gambling house or a casino, until today. I only gamble online.
So now back to topic: I have consumed over twenty years the most different drugs, some short, some long, some now and then, I was also quite a while really physically dependent on a substance - but: during the whole twenty years I had my life under control! I had an apartment, either alone or over seven years together with my girlfriend, I was always working, I could easily finance my / our consumption, feed us and our two cats and build up a small collection of high-end headphones and I never had the problem that I was completely broke at the end of the month, a little coal was always there. Had all the time good contact with my family, etc.. So not at all like most people who just have no idea imagine a person who uses drugs. Had a good job, my own office and never owed anyone a few cents...
then in 2016 I started playing slots in online casinos. That was only two years ago. My three credit cards with a decent credit line (had always paid everything on time over the years) are now history, canceled by the banks. I am now paying off a loan of 10,000 euros for the next 1368 years and when my money arrives on the 30th of the month, it is actually already completely earmarked for the shit that is still open somewhere. On the 2nd of the month I'm usually broke and if not you can imagine what happens to the rest.
I've done all the drugs I know of personally and I know exactly what I'm talking about when I say none of them have as much destructive potential as gambling. All the years I was also mentally and psychologically well, except now and then the stress with the Bavarian police, since I play I'm actually usually in a bad mood (unless I'm just 800 stones in the plus) and from quality of life I want to speak now not at all...
Who starts with it, I can only say let it go as long as it is still halfway without collateral damage in all areas of life
Also always play on small stakes but even with small stakes you can gamble away a lot, a weekly limit is the 2 best thing you can do, the best of course is to stop completely
The problem is that you don't really want to stop, but you know that you should because then many things in your environment would improve by themselves
Because apart from the fact that it is very expensive in the long run (at least for most or many) and due to the constant ups & downs logically quite strongly fluctuating moods and sometimes simply frustration or a certain struggling with itself with brings, it is in my opinion above all also very time-consuming. I think you all know how quickly time can pass when you have a good run at gambling.
In the. In the end, it usually eats up not only the entire Deposit but also a frightening amount of hours of your own time
I've been trying for a few months to be more or less consistently qualified for the Battles mainly at Videoslots and otherwise also play some free chips or spins. But by far not everything. 1!!!! single spin as a pittance from LeoVegas, for example, I feel almost as a provocation, the spin they should introduce themselves along with the possible win elsewhere.
With the battles and any no Depsoit Bonuses (is already clear to me that this is snot and rip-off) I come lately quite ok through the months. The gaming addiction is also satisfied, although not exactly as with real money and a little bit larger than the minimum stakes, but somehow again.
So I've already managed in the last two months to create so much money aside that I could finally finish my tattoo and start with another one. In principle, that was not possible in the 20 months before, I even had to hit my dad once, so that I had money for cat food.
It was a good feeling to finally be able to do that and actually have the money for it on the 24th of the month and that motivated me to go further in this direction, so to speak in small steps out of the basement. Works sometimes more sometimes less but it gets easier..
I also remember ten years ago when I had the thought of how you can be so stupid to blow your money in Spielos and online casinos.
I never had much money, but I had a secure job. A small loan to pay off, but no chargebacks on the account.
At some point I became curious about OCs about 6 years ago. Just plunk down 20 euros and see what works. I had prioritized AutomatenRoulette, because I thought the chances were fairest. I still remember the day when I had 1,800 euros on the clock. That would have covered all my deposits and still been a good plus.
But I didn't cash out, I rattled the money back down with small stakes over several sessions spread over 48 hours and was frustrated. I simply did not want to accept this. This is where the vicious cycle began. One after the other I took out a loan, liquidated my LV, let my savings account shrink and then increased my loan several times.
My reasonably comfortable, structured life was gone. I even had good wins in the process, but failed to make the leap to cash out several times. I was always able to meander through so that I could always pay my debts on time, but towards the end of the month it got tight. I always had before my eyes how many euros I still had left for the overdraft stop, what expenses are still incurred and often calculated down, what I can still Deposit somewhere. Not infrequently, I could have gotten from the ATM then only 20 euros, then the month was exhausted.
