Thank you Phill for your wisdom and insight into this horrible addiction. I am in recovery a little over two weeks. It's nice to see some money in my bank account.
I'm at the point I consider the worst in my life. I lost my dad last year just 1 month before I went to Law school, few months before he died I had stolen alot of money from his bank account just to gamble, and he was sick at that time and couldn't go to work. I felt so bad and swore never to gamble again. But I didn't, I continued. Now I'm in Law school and it's been very rough for me , I lost all my savings 2days ago and I feel so depressed. My exams is in 1 month time and gambling has taken all my study time, now I feel so empty, depressed, in alot of debt and worst of all I have not studied atall. I've taught alot about ending my life, but I just don't know what I'm holding on to. I hope 1 day I'm able to forgive myself and live like a normal human😢
I lost my dad a few years ago too and turned to gambling as a way of comfort, this addiction just attacks like nothing else. The losses just add up and your chasing for the rest of ur life, im quitting because I realize I'll never get even. It's so obvious to me now and im thankful for not being homeless
Fully clean, its been a year now. Even tho im brooke in alots of debts, but i sleep on peace , ive missed my self and thank god im back to my self. All the best to all gamblers.
Good video Phil and an important one..my gambling definitely thrived on secrecy..when I could no longer hide the financial destruction from my girlfriend I cam clean on 9-2-23, got into GA, and haven't gambled since..I got a lot of anger from her and ultimatum to stop or she is gone..but I'm doin this for me not just her and our child..it felt so good to get the lies out of my life. Still in early recovery but stress is way down despite a lot of debt.
Well said Phil, it inevitably comes a most isolated addiction. Coming clean is such a relief. The best things to do, however, are inexorably difficult. I’m being brutally honest here but some or even most spouses tend to use it against you in the future, you know what I mean? I’m being funny but also serious. What you reap you bloody well sow

Been listening to all your videos I'm fighting the addiction right now and day by day becoming free of this horrible curse. Keep up the amazing work ❤
Curse is a good way of putting it!
