  • After the success of my video "How to stop your gambling addiction" that i made years ago- i decided to come clean about my life the last few months and even at the current state. I have relapsed into gambling and i am so upset that i am here but the most important thing for me is to be truthful to You and Myself- this is where i am at right now and why there is hope to be found even in this situation.

    Brother the fact that you relapsed doesn't take ANYTHING from the help and inspiration you gave others. You're a human and thus not perfect. Stay strong and try again and again and again!

    I just wanted to say I had a relapse too. I was in such a good place-like, I thought a million percent I would never gamble again. Then I did...and bad. Then I thought I definitely never would again...and did again the very next day. Then I almost went the following day. Wtf, right? Like, so sooo close to going again....but I didn’t. It was so hard, but I went and paid bills instead. It was the best feeling right after. I felt so proud. 🤍
    For myself, I need to remember, that even if parts of it seem fun (or relaxing or distracting, etc.), and even if I can and do win some...I STILL DON’T WANT TO GAMBLE. It’s like a really bad drug. There are many people that see doing that as living the “cool life”, so exciting, such a high feeling, blah blah blah. People even say it helps them in ways in their lives to do this or that, get things done...
    Every time I think of gambling, I’m going to remember that....that even if those kinds of drugs or gambling can be those ways, it’s not something that I want to do. I don’t want to be a part of that. I don’t want it in my life. Life is so much better without gambling. It’s a waste of money, time, energy, attention, mood, motivation...it’s a waste of life.
    But I just wanted to mainly come on and say that your video meant the world to me when I watched it after my relapse. I know you felt so disappointed in yourself too, like you let so many people down. But just know, because you relapsed, and because you made this exact video...you helped me to remember that we are all human and gave me the clarity and strength to switch back to where I had been instead of getting further entangled in it all again. You inspired me to stop the relapse in it’s tracks and remember where I want to be-where I deserve to be. So...thank you, and know that you are helping so many people still, and in even more of a way now. 🤍
    I hope all is going well with you. I think we will come out even stronger after this. I can do it. You can do it. We all can do it...and we will...because, really, we deserve SO much better and SO much more than a life of gambling. LIFE IS WAY MORE AMAZING WITHOUT IT. 🤍

    It’s a dark place to be. The feeling is demoralizing to the soul. I go 2 years without to 4 months straight. I’m done with it for good not because I’m upset about losing but because the way I feel when I lose and when I win it’s like I just wanna keep chasing wins. It has nothing to do with the money. Will be freeing myself from this addiction this year for good.

    Brother my suggestion is whenever you get the urge to gamble, donate the money you want to gamble with to some poor people. Change the bad habit into a good deed. Not only will you stop gambling but you will help people who are in need of these money, the best feeling in the world. Dont know if youre muslim, but if youre not. May Allah swt guide you to islam. Take care brother. Hope you overcome this addiction.

      Hello that is great advice indeed because its turning a potential bad deed or sin into something fruitful and beneficial not only for myself but for somebody else- i feel that becoming more distant from faith and religion has definitely made me weaker and more open to comitting these acts and mistakes- i need to rekindle the flame of faith and belief

      Hi Benny, to be honest i do not know. It's absolutely ridiculous. I definitely know i will not get rich, i don't do it out of greed i am very generous too- i cannot explain it at all, it's the most illogical thought process, if there's any thought at all. There are a lot of much better activities that i can do, especially soul pleasing ones- i need to endeavour for those pleasures instead :)

    You should give your bank accounts to a trusted family member. You should not have access to any bank or credit cards. Gambling doesn't make you bad; it is an illness. You could say it's your brain going crazy with dopamine. Stay away from gambling websites and friends who gamble. It's simple: if you don't have money, you can't play. The solution is easy as long as you don't complicate things.

      @@ramio1983 Actually, without you realizing it, your ego is telling you that you are strong and that you won't play even if you have money. But you know, and you’ve always experienced, that this is a lie because your brain is damaged by dopamine and you don't know how to stop anymore. Don’t make the situation complicated. If you give your money to your mother or father, they will give it back to you. I'm sure they will even give it back with extra because they won’t spend it. For one year, have nothing in your bank account. Then keep small amounts of money in your account and try not to exceed $100. Even if you spend it, the regret won’t be great. This way, you can convince your brain.
