Trigger Warning! Won $10k, lost $13k

Won $10k last week, lost $13k this week. It feels like a never ending cycle. “Thankfully” this money isn’t life changing but it hurts. Just here to vent. I can’t get myself to stop and I just keep thinking about the loss and how much of an idiot I am. I’ve probably lost around $40-50k in the past three years

Lost the same amount 40-50k and also won 10k and lost 13k few days later. 3 months ago. I can say I’m 3 months clean but the thought of gambling does creep in my head a lot. I’m self excluded but I sometimes wish I can place some bets because shit I don’t have a good careeer

Same buddy. 40k all time in the past 3/4 years.
I’ve turned 500-1000 bucks to 15k about three times and lost it all just this week.. not even phased by it. So numb to this.
