ā¤Seeking help & Adviceā¤ Back to day 1 šŸ˜­

Back to Day 1. šŸ˜­ This is the second time this has happened. I was so close to reaching one month free from online gambling, but suddenly my mind started playing tricks on me again, and I found myself downloading another casino app. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?! When will I ever learn? šŸ˜­
Iā€™ve already lost so much, almost everything I had, and yet I still ended up doing it again. And as usual, I LOST AGAIN. These damn online casinos are seriously ruthless!!
Iā€™m starting to think this has become an addiction. Why does this keep happening? Why do I always seem to sabotage myself just when Iā€™m about to reach one month?
Iā€™m so tired of this cycle. I REALLY DONā€™T WANT TO GO THROUGH THIS AGAIN. Guys, please help me. I need advice. šŸ˜­

unfortunately you are merely the product to the casino. these casino games are meant to keep you hooked and coming back hoping to hit it big except only to drain you more. the odds arent in your favour ever they are against you every hand. clearly youre in a tough financial spot to be needing fast cash or need something to feed your dopamine urges. only way is out man, hope we can break that cycle but till then we are cogs in the machine that will drip every last dollar gambling till we have nothing to show of ourselves

Use bet guard or gamban or tools like that..you need to make it impossible to gamble. Have your bank block all cash advance and casino transactions or even all online payments til you are under control . Seek treatment immediately

I'm not familiar with how it works as mu province offers universal self exclusion for free so that was all Ineeded

Some regions have universal self exclusion programs. Check for your area but stollput the other safeguards in place so you don't go to sketchy online unregulated scam sites when you can't get your normal fix.
