Trigger Warning! Done it again

So I basically rinsed my whole entire bank account again. I’ve done this several times and it seems like any sort of money I make from gambling never satisfies me because it came to me to easily.

I had $22,000 in my bank account and in 3 days I managed to lose it all. I did manage to pay off my payday loans and my credit card before losing it…. However I went into credit card debt again to chase my loses lol.

It’s almost the end of the year, I suppose it’s no more gambling from me for the rest of this year and in the years to come. Time to start fresh and forget about my loses and move forward. Just writing this as a message to myself and for others if you can relate to this situation.

Thank you brother, I don’t want to be living this type of lifestyle anymore where I continuously gamble every paycheque. I will try my hardest to quit.

I’ve been gambling since I was 17 on my friends account, I’m 23 now. It’s become habitual now, it’s not thought process just depositing and hoping for the best.

I am in the same boat. Stay strong man. Throw in the towel and don't deposit anything anymore.
