    I’ve been stuck in the trap since May of 2021. I won’t discuss numbers but my hole is deep. In the last few weeks, I managed to chip away ever so slightly. The scary thing is how almost every time I win a bit, something bad happens to me, my gf, my family, friends, etc. I know for sure their are evil forces around the whole business, I want to…[Read more]

    This is a good perspective. I had some big wins but they surely ruined me. I was plus 20K last May when I threw it all away on Draft Kings, the few decent wins I had since evaporated quickly. I broke my ankle in a drunken gambling binge. When you’re so deep in credit card debt, it feels like gambling is the only way out. I work a gig type job and…[Read more]

    To clarify, I think the issue may be certain actors or infiltrators that come on these sites and try to skim information.

    I’ve heard rumors that certain support sites are mining users data. I really don’t think that’s the case here, but if it is that’s just sick. We’re addicts and if anyone is exploiting that, what a sick society. Such dark times.

    This thing just reaches me late at night after drinking and the losses mount up and it feels hopeless. The girl who lives in the apartment above me stomps around carelessly. She doesn’t care she is so rude and awful. I hate her.

    What trusted debt relief programs in the States does anyone know of?

    The Super Bowl is a hard weekend for a gambling addict. So deep in the hole, I managed to cash 4K and left about 550 in. Of course Saturday I owe it all and deposit over 2K more. I won 2 small bets on Super Bowl but blew that little sum right after the game. Last night I threw 400 at it and got up 1.2. I lost a bad beat sports bet tonight and…[Read more]

    I don’t want to feel this way ever again. I hate this addiction, the nightmares, the mental illness, the PTSD, still waiting to talk to a therapist who is supposed to call me this week. I’ve done so much damage. The debt mountain is so high. I fear my brain is permanently broken.

    Lstee04. I developed a gambling problem some 18 years ago. I was in my late 20’s decent job and a gf. After a year of sports bets and losing blackjack, the gf left and I was alone in Philly. I hadn’t gambled seriously until 2018 when all the mates on my soccer team would talk about trips to Vegas and all the sports wagers they made. I laid a bet…[Read more]

    I was up 20K in April, now I’m down over 30K. It’s a desperate feeling, I get blackout drunk and disassociate. In this month alone, I blew a 20K win, a 19K win and 9900 win. It’s evil and sick, I’ve stolen from family. These casinos are evil and rigged.

    Ken is absolutely right. He referred me to the Smart Recovery program as I am agnostic and I am seeking help there. I have the utmost respect for those who have found god, just have had too much tragedy to believe that a god or gods haven’t abandoned our wicked human race.

    I’m basically in the same boat, I blew large blackjack wins in the less than a week. I had paid off my credit card debt (like 21K), now I’m back in the hole like 11K. I needed a financial advisor and a therapist, but instead I kept drinking and gambling. These new apps are just so evil. Draft Kings, never ever use that.
