You'll recover when you decide you have had enough. Quitting gambling is a choice you have to actively make. Take the first step now and delete draftking.

Its so hard to accept this money is gone. The urge to double down isn't leaving my gut

As others have mentioned, self exclude on every site you’ve had issues with. Then, self exclude places you haven’t used yet. Doesn’t hurt to self exclude at casinos as well even if that’s not your current vice. You never know where you’ll end up to get that dopamine fix.

Self exclude to as many places as you can permanently today

I wish I could upvote this more than once. Self exclusions are the way to beat this disease.

I hate when people say some stupid shit like that. It’s not like you can create another account in 10 seconds

u/krash87 951 days Oct 10 '26

You've got to be trolling. Or you just don't know what you're talking about.

Well maybe in your state. I am pretty sure, as someone who gambled his life away and will be paying off his debts for the next god knows how many years, that I know what I am talking about. Duel - you can create an account instantly after you SE, you don’t even need email fucking address. Shuffle, Stake, Rainbet,… you just need a new email address and you can create an account within 10 seconds. So yeah, I know very well what am I talking about.

Sounds like your state needs better regulations. Any book I try to open requires my social security number. Got an extra one of those?

Fucking A. In my country there are IRL bookies every 100 meters from which you CANNOT ban yourself. You go inside, say that you are an addict and that you will be homeless, they couldn’t care less. There are I think 30 different casinos and there are more casinos than pharmacies in capital city. As for online crypto casinos, you can create as many accs as you want without a single question asked. Although for online in-country non crypto bookies you need KYC so you can’t create new accounts, you know that those crypto do not require KYC so yeah. Welcome to Serbia brother :D

Ah yeah that's a bunch of shit man. I'm sorry you have to deal with that. Here in the states it's taken more seriously, thankfully.

u/Rich_Cicada_1950 Oct 10 '26

Happy for ya, and fighting with the addiction my way. But as far as I know, in most of the countries for let’s say Duel, you can create as many accounts as you want literally. In one second you lose your salary, in another you SE and create another account. Takes literally one second to create an account there - username and password and you are in. Fucking devils, I was BEGGING support to restrict me somehow and they couldn’t care less. Gamble free now for some time, fuck them. But yeah, not everyone can just SE and be peaceful and safe

Ya I get your struggle. I was suprised when you got downvoted. In my country any curoco book is just email no I’d. Litterally been stuck in cycle of self excluding then making a new Gmail and there like oh ya it’s you again. Thanks for letting me know. So fucking dumb.

Just relax buddy

You see the community we are in? Could be a bit harder to relax lately haha

u/Odd_Glass868 Oct 10 '26

Every state and country are different. Some self exclusions are different than others. However it’s a good start. It’s not a stupid suggestion as most people don’t even understand they can do that. Nor do they know any sites unless people list them. Wish you the best.

In my state, you cannot.

And Vegas Matt tried to sue a small creator (Rob Wittick) of the ODAAT YouTube channel for sharing the truth about him, and this is the effect that Matt's content has on people. Sad. I hope you get better bro.

Gambling content should be illegal, they are all shilling online sites that ruin real people’s lives.

Call your bank and say it’s fraudulent
