This all started as a form of enjoyment. Sports betting and small amounts. Something my friends and I could talk about, something to add a little more excitement to the games we love. The problem has never been sports betting. It’s been how easily I transition into online blackjack and casino games. I will exclude myself from sites, only to find another one and allow the cycle to repeat. If I am up, it’s never enough. If I am down, I am always chasing and creating the hole larger and larger. Over the past 14 months I have lost over 35 thousand dollars in online gambling. I have essentially depleted a large amount of savings I have worked hard for and although not completely compromised my life, I have created a significant burden for my actual passions, enjoyment, and fulfillment in the ability to help others. I am hoping talking about this will allow me to move forward as we can not change the past and the mistakes that have been made. I will beat this, we all will.
Hi samyse
I am glad to see you taking the first step to seek help early for your problem instead of living in denial.
I did not seek help early and my damage was easily more than 20 times the amount you mentioned in sing dollars.
We suffer from a progressive illness; we are advise not to place the first bet,
the fist bet leads to the next bet; the betting become more frequent and the bet size grow bigger;
it will comes to a point where we have lost total control of ourselves;
We soon realize we could not stop betting despise the serious bad consequences.
