    It has hit me again. I relapsed. I had been doing to so well not having money. But when bad situations come up, all my outlet goes to gambling. I am so sick of this feeling. I am already at my worst and i don’t know what to do. We alreadg got kicked out at our place because I used all the rent money. Even grocery money for my 2 kids. It sickens…[Read more]

      • sorry to hear of both of your troubles :/. I came pretty close to becoming homeless myself. 43 living with my mom now and driving a car that has been totalled twice over. got a decent job but nothing to show for it. workaholic as well close to 80 hours a week sometimes. sucks to work so hard and be unable to even buy new clothes/shoes…

    • A few people mentioned workaholic. I think that’s part of the problem a personality trait that’s all in. It’s very hard to come to terms with losing money when a person just wanted to gain money. To turn your back on the loses and know you’re not getting that money. back. That’s okay you can make more and not give it away to gambling.
      Much love

    I am also in my 20s and I already think I am wasting my life. I have two kids, all under 2. And I feel this way. I feel like I’m in a deep whole.

  • Linglang posted a new activity comment 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    Same here. I am too stressed with it too. I am not gambling now because I don’t have money coming in, but when I have money, I just end up losing everything away, but the bills keep pilling up and I am delayed. And the feeling of being a failure creeps in. It’s just too stressful. I pray we can get over this.

    Hi Lovely, same here. 😭 I can’t stop too. And it’s hurting my family. Because they are the ones getting the bills paid instead of me. I feel so bad.

    Hi, i feel the same. I feel like there’s no way out of this but just to put out my misery. Bad thoughts keep coming and coming. All the regrets, and shame. It feels like there is no tomorrow and feels like I am going to be stuck here for all my life. 😭

    • Long Lang you will get there. You just have to take yourself there. It makes me feel really sad knowing you are suffering.
      I’ve been where you are right now and sometimes I glance back and I shouldn’t. We can’t change the past. But we sure can work on the future. I don’t know giving up gambling feels like you’re going to lose something. Truth is…[Read more]

    Hi Willow. My heart is thesame. I have been so out of control and my mind is driving me carzy these days. It doesnt really matter when you are winning on the games, you still want to play. It happened to me last night. Which I am going out of my mind now. I can’t seem to grasp around it. I would’ve paid a lot of people from the wins, but still…[Read more]

    • I can relate to that sick feeling. It’s an awful pit in your stomach, almost a contracting of muscles from feeling depleted and in angst from the loss, and also feeling so wired. It’s so interesting to watch how we continue to play and go back..but all of these expereinces Linglang, even the pain we’re feeling, is here to teach us something, I…[Read more]

    So young yet already destroyed my future because of this gambling. If I can just turn back time. I can never go a day with out having a headache. The people that had borrowed money from are already pissed and I honestly don’t have anything. Already had a debt proposal but still hadn’t learned my lesson. I’m at a brink of getting kicked out for m…[Read more]

    • Hi Linglang, I’m so sorry that things keep piling and it feels like you’ve destroyed your future. I can only imagine what you must be going through from my gambling struggles and disappointments. I hope you know though, you coming into this community and sharing you experiences is already taking steps towards a better future. Small steps within…[Read more]

    • Sending you lots of love and prayers. You’ve got this love!

    • LingLang there’s always a better future ahead. By your words you would like to stop gambling. You just need to figure out what measures you need to take to do that. If it’s online casinos. Gamban is a good bet.
      Live casinos there is self exclusion.

    How do I do this? How do I stop? I am at my lowest of lows. 😭 Lord please help

    • Hi Linglang
      Just wanted to share what worked for me when I crashed and was about to lose my family
      home and job and almost ended my life in 2002
      I joined gamblers anonymous and attended as many meetings as I could in my city.
      Also found some group counseling and was blessed to go away for 28 days of inpatient
      treatment. I was able to save my…[Read more]

    • Linglang…. while it seems that stopping is a mountain…. it is a mountain you’re climbing each time you gamble… just barely holding on without falling.. Perhaps it’s worthwhile to see written down all the negatives about this addiction .. and then all the positive ‘if and when’ you try to stop. It’s hard.. no one here can say it’s easy.…[Read more]

    I finally told my mom and my husband about mt gambling addiction. I feel so shitty about myself. And cost a lot of problem to them. But I think I’m blessed my husband took it calmly. 🥺
