Have then read the page of casinoloser found the page really great, there was a lot of exaggerated from my point of view but it gave me to think properly, thanks to who has written this page. This page has opened my eyes, have so never thought about it. there are actually more pages of casinoloser or something like that

If I speak now of me, it brings nothing at all
On the other hand, I must say that at least for a year I no longer go to the "offline" Casino(Spielothek),
because I let myself block at all in the periphery^^
Do not know how far this fits into the topic, but that with the blocking has worked well especially at Admiral and Löwenplay. (House ban)
With Merkur against it gave's ne refusal, however I know from my "therapist" that it at least in the Merkur store with me in the proximity is nevertheless
is carried out.

On the subject:
I actually have in every casino a monthly Deposit limit and various locks...
Well what does it bring with me? -> Nothing
I'm so f**king stupid that I then just look for new casinos (main thing Book of Dead "hate")
There are just way too many Online Casinos, as well as offline casinos....
They sprout like mushrooms from the ground.... >:(

Hey, so if I may give you a tip. The approach is actually already the secret
As times clear text. If you simply let yourself be blocked everywhere and restrict yourself with means like PayPal and Sofortüberweisungen by removing it, that brings nothing. We all know that if you want to gamble, you do it. There are plenty of ways to do that. It has to start in your head. You have to say to yourself: this is the end. If you really want to do it from your heart, that's the first step towards freedom from gambling

The second and final step is that you don't see setbacks as defeats. It is perfectly normal to relapse. You live with it, move on, and don't let it drag you down

If you say to yourself: I don't play anymore and play again after 7 days then shit happens. Then the next time you can do it for 8 days and so on. It will improve bit by bit. Over time, you will be able to go longer and longer without playing

If you report in 5 years that you are gambling free, do you think it matters if you had 50 relapses until then? NO. The result is important in that case

Think about it. Maybe it will help you

Thanks for your reaction Hammerdammer
I know myself that it is totally stupid and that with the freedom to play I have at least managed for 2-3 months.
The reasons are also partly completely clear...I know the time since it became really bad again.
Separation after 7 years + with the time no more friends, no more joy, what should I do? Oh well I just do the only
what makes me still fun -> gambling ...
The money has me the time no more value, it's just sick and I hate it.
But I just can't get a grip on it.
At the moment I am in the situation that I know that I "must" win, so that I can pay back my debts sooner.
Otherwise I pay forever and live with my parents because I can't afford an apartment.
It's hilarious and I also know that I am entirely responsible for this and can and must change it.
As a small note (no offense): you sound like my therapist^^

Many greetings

Tobi

Hey Tobi, of course I react and try to help. I myself have already gone through enough with playing and therefore know how that feels. Also for me, money no longer holds the value that it should have for me
I know the need to win only too well. Unfortunately, it stresses you out too much and it doesn't work anyway if you're dependent on it

If you have such a run again and win e.g. 10k or more, then the rush sets in and it starts all over again (I know what I'm talking about) so think about whether it is not more sensible to save 1-3 years to get out of the parents' house or live there for another 10 years to hope for the big win that changes everything. I know it's hard and it sucks and it's not fun and that's some 0815 crap that every 0815 therapist tells you, but it's unfortunately true

By the way, I don't hold that against you. I myself have talked to enough therapists and could also do their job and that without having studied for years

LG Kay

I only got myself into the situation that I would have to save for 1-3 years to get out in the last 2-3 months.
I mean, at the moment it's perfectly fine with my parents, because I have no one else and what should I do when I'm alone?
Since I'm already depressed and "lonely" anyway, it would probably only make my situation worse
My problem is more to make new acquaintances, to rebuild the self-confidence/confidence, etc. that I have lost in the last years, to do something and not to be alone for a long time
to do something and not to be bored.
In contrast, I am consistently charged, stressed, bored, tired and gamble through it, a vicious circle^^
