[lostsomuch]

I started playing blackjack a few months ago. After continuing to play i ended up winning 5000 usd. I then lost it all and said that i wouldnt play anymore. It has now been a few months and I have found myself continuing to gamble. I won almost 12000 usd and ended up impulsively losing it all in one session. I even told myself after being up 600$ that i should walk away. I then started losing and chased the loss until i had eaten up my entire 12000 profit. I have only recently been gambling and feel that this has become a problem. This loss was devastating, i could have done so much with that money and still found myself gambling and losing it all. I suffer from substance addiction already so am prone to addiction and feel that I may have a problem. I am very sad about this loss and lying to family that i wouldnt gamble the money. Does anyone have any advice about how i can move forward from this, and any advice about overcoming what seems to be the beginning of addiction. I feel that I may be addicted to blackjack i dont think a non addicted person would waste 12000 usd they cant afford and lie to my family and loved ones about it. Any help or advice to smash this problem appreciated
