    If you‘re addicted then remember, even when you win money, you loose. A win never pays out, not just the money but also the time you spent and the brain damage it takes will make it not worthwhile

      even you know you can not resist the temptation. you still need to do some effort to not gamble but its damn hard. you will fail 100 times to stop gambling hoping the one time is the good time.

    I just won like $5K in a week, it’s like every bet I placed there is a revenue… it felt like it can go on forever and no way I will let myself lose back the money I won as I feel it’s quite a lot of winnings.
    First day of next week, I lost 1K, then I thought ok I will stop if if my winnings cut down to $3K. The next day I lost another $1k, then I told myself hey I still got $3k winnings. Then 2 days later I lost all the winnings, then I told myself to stop. I only stopped for 5 hours and thought hey I haven’t lost a cent so maybe I go small with $200. Then I end up losing about $30K in a week

    So true. I have an addictive personality, too. I messed up a lot with online gambling, which brought on tons of anxiety and even some suicidal thoughts. I’d try to quit, but after a couple of weeks or a month, I’d end up right back in the same cycle. But when I found my passion for video editing and translating videos, I was able to stay away from gambling for longer. I haven’t bet in the last five months, but unfortunately, I met an old friend while my WiFi was down at home, and I ended up gambling again. Now I’m on a two-day streak, winning and losing multiple times, but in the end, my wallet’s in the negative. 😂 Watching this video reminded me I need to get back on track.

    I finally stopped lying to myself and am trying to quit gambling. It was always a hobby until I got sick overseas in 2015 and since then it somehow has become an obsession. I honestly don't know if it was the high fever or the medication or it was just coincidental but it's a really difficult thing to stop.
    I had some big wins over the last couple of years which only made it worse because now anything less than a big jackpot isn't enough so I keep playing.
    For people who don't understand the compulsion to gamble and look down on people like us consider yourselves lucky.

    Hello, I am from Europe and here the minimum monthly salary is €600. A decent salary can be 1000€. From this monthly salary you have to pay food, rent, fuel for the car, etc. But the most important thing is that you can find casinos and pawn shops EVERYWHERE
    How could a society like this work?
    I have seen people who sold their cars and houses and then committed suicide after losing the money in the hope of a better life
    People from Eastern European countries play at casinos because of poverty to earn a quick buck.

    I personally believe that some gamblers lose on purpose so they can have a break or get some sympathy from a friend or loved one. I think some people are more addicted to the social or environmental aspects of gambling and not to the winning since the winning very rarely happens. In many cases the dopamine flows even more when you lose. I guess you could say that the gambler is addicted to losing.

    Hello, My name is Asi and I am from Philippines. I have 4 kids and I think gambling addiction really worsen the lives of my family. it really hurts me when I see them suffer because of me. I'm always on a suicidal mode as I really don't know where to start. I wanna get back the life that I used to before but I don't know where to start, I've created a damage that big.

    Hello guys how are you?
    For context, I did not spend thousands but a couple hundred but still I look behind and I see that I could go on holiday with that which is sad...
    The money that I've used to gamble isn't doesn't hurt me as much thankfully. But I feel if I go on it can hurt me in the long run and nowadays my brain feels the need to gamble which is not right.
    Looking back it was fun but now it is on a point that I cannot stand anymore.
    I mainly gamble with a friend and today we promised to never gamble again and the first who does pays the other 100€ and calls the "gamblers anonymous".
    Quite funny but we are really committed to this and we are going to start personal projects.
    It's also sh*t that nowadays we are exposed to these types of "games" so frequently on ads and everywhere to be honest.
    I would like some advice from y'all on how you stopped this addiction.

    I won $50,000 and gambled it all back. I’m struggling with this and I don’t know what to do. There’s help for people with drug addiction but just an 800 number that rarely works.

Find something else to devote your energy and find a hobby, exercise, make your food, learn something like playing a musical instrument, paint, and the most important thing is learn to meditate.

      You win when you quit. The sooner you realize that the better. Not a single compulsive gambler win in the long run. If you win it s only more money to lose. So you end up as a loser anyway. If you are in a really bad place then you might do what I did. I moved to a country were gambling was illegal. If you literary can t play then you can move on. Sounds crazy, but it worked.
