Hi, My name is Ryan and i am a sports betting addict.
It all started like 5-6 years ago when, betting with €10 cash on my favorite football team. i loved the suspense of watching the game and possibly winning money. Once i discovered online sports betting it all got worse real fast.
I come from a above average family so i had absolutely no worries financially. When i hit 18 they gave me 20k to kickstart my life (studies etc.) I deposited €200, played a little bit and won. So i figured i could play with higher stake to make more money. Before i knew it i was 5k down. At some point i went 1-2k per bet on heavy favorites but almost all of them lost.
I then lowered my stake a bit to €100 but whenever i lost i kept depositing, it was soo easy. 1k for a new television was way too expensive but i had no problem betting on a sports team for the same amount…
This behaviour kept going till i had +-5k left of all my savings. I was a little drunk and went all in on the superbowl, it looked really good but the team blew an enormous lead. After the game i had nothing left.
I had to take out a loan to pay my studies but i still played with money i got. Today was my last bet ( i hope), being 5k down in debt.
Loneliness played a big part in the story. i have no sisters/brothers so i was always alone at home. i filled my time with sportsbetting and nobody saw that. Still nobody knows i blew that much and i really cant tell anyone so i had to write it here.
I fucked up half of my life and i hope today is the day that i go without doing any bets
Hey Ryan, Do you live in the states?
Hey, no im actually from europe. Today has been tough, my mind wants to look at the odds constantly but i didnt place a bet luckily
