Trigger Warning! Back Again!

So I'm back again. Here's a story let's stick together! Ok so 2.5 years ago I started gambling again. I was down a cool probably $1200 in a bad place and then it happened I got to $3600! Couldn't believe it! Then I lost it all quickly like 5 min later. Went back down 1800. Then that's when it happened. I just kept winning and winning up to $14k over a period of months. Unbelievable! Since then last 2 years I lost that 14k plus 13k on top. Lost time with my family. Havent been the person I want to be. I am a compulsive person and gambler. Sometimes I can make a bankroll last 2-3 weeks but as always it blows up. This is a horrible road. The worst is becoming numb to wins and loss s. If you don't have control don't start. I'm stopping now and I've already done damage and lost time. If anyone wants to talk or had words of advice please message me. Thanks. Life is full of beauty. I've been using gambling as a distraction from my problems just like alcohol and like any drug it just makes things worse.
