Hello,

i'm contacting you again because I need to talk to someone.

I've had the most painful weeks of my life.

All the money gone,
Made a Klarna account and took 2 thousand euros from it and gambled
had 3 k but in the end it was all gone.

Well -2000€ is not so cool, my friends / girlfriend knows it.
my parents don't, but I'll be doing that for weeks.
I have to get away from it as quickly as possible, I got some money from friends to survive and I'm paying it all back.
50 he times there pocketed by parents,,
I'm so ashamed that I can't bear to look at myself in the mirror.

It's good to write these words and learn from them that it was poison for me.

As of today I have flipped the switch and think in the future money comes money goes.
i just hope that it continues like this now and that I don't relapse

do you have any tips?

thank you

Don't beat yourself up over it... Many people here have been in a situation like this before, I think... including myself.
You haven't gambled away your house and car.
If you really learn something from it, you got off quite well with the €2000 . Tell the people who care about you and who are important to you what happened to you and don't try to make up for the loss with borrowed money... Believe me, that won't work.
Remember how you feel right now and remember that the next time you want to Deposit money into your casino account.
I had to get into a situation like that a few times before I got the hang of it... At some point there's no one left to help you make ends meet, then you learn the hard way.

So keep your head up because as the saying goes.... if you're up to your neck in shit, don't hang your head

You are young, change your life and your attitude. Money comes and goes but you won't get your time back. Gambling should be a hobby not an addiction or compulsion, you are addicted and young, you underestimate the consequences of gambling. At some point you will be alone and no one will help you, your family will shun you, your girlfriend will leave you and if you are not mentally strong you will have more addictions. Don't look for excuses, let yourself be locked up enjoy life, at some point you will laugh at your mistakes let action follow.

There's nothing more to say. Rarely read anything better here.

What else is there to tell you? Learn from your mistakes, get help, stop gambling, do something with your life, blah blah blah.

In the end, nothing anyone writes to you in the forum will help anyway. And I'm really annoyed by people like that who only come here when they've lost everything again and then want to be absolved and as soon as they have money in their account again, the game literally starts all over again.

What people write to you here is a waste of time. You'll either figure it out on your own or you won't. In my experience, you still have a long way to go and will need to hit rock bottom many times before you maybe, just maybe, get your act together.

However, we are not psychotherapists here, nor are we a counseling forum to hold your hand during your self-destructive trip. You can find out where you can turn to with a single Google search, Google will also tell you how to find a psychotherapist and common sense alone will tell you what options are open to you.

But blowing on someone's thumb every time and talking them down when they've hit their hand with a hammer again is just too stupid for me in the long run.

Sorry but it's always the same with you which just shows everyone but you that you haven't fallen that low yet where it was really really painful


I mean it's not a reproach to you you are an addict you are always helped everyone you love has understanding so everything is great and satisfying ...... at least from the side of an addict

You've lost your wages your saved money and money from others around you all not good but it was in a certain space now you go one step higher and get money through Klarna maybe soon PayPal take any reputable Provider who is willing to give you a sum!

This will destroy your creditworthiness after a few months at the latest and your score will fall to a super great 22% in an area that is no longer recorded more precisely because this is the lowest you can actually achieve because providers like PayPal and Klarna like to throw entries around if a payment is not made at the first but once you are in arrears they want the next one and so it goes on

Then you use every dubious provider and accumulate more Debt because, due to your disastrous credit rating and your misplaced trust in the reputable providers, nobody sends you anything except the yellow letters from the court

Until then, it's all just money, but do you seriously think this is something that just passes people who love you by? When your girlfriend sees you running into your own misfortune over and over again?

You show up here and (sorry for the direct words) whine and people give you tips because they can understand you then you disappear and come back with new whining and then you get tips again and you disappear again and what happens then? You come back 2 more times and you've just kept on whining

Do you want to change anything at all? To be honest, I have the impression that someone is writing here who can't properly assess the situation yet - you can't get out of it without help, you've already seen it 2-3 times and your girlfriend, your parents and we here in the forum are all reaching out to you and trying to help you but in the end it's no use if you say A but two minutes later do B

It sucks hard no question but it is doable and not impossible and no matter how shitty you are there is always someone who is in an even crappier situation than you!

Write to someone here from the counselors and have your girlfriend or parents install a blocker for casino sites on your devices in addition to your Oasis block if you do that you show at least for the beginning you want to change something

Show your will you don't have to fight the battle alone and no one expects you to win it alone but believe me it's a lot easier to fight when you have people to support you

There are already some great tips here, plus attitude over the head in the first place
change. You have to really want it and be strong, because this industry is not really serious
Industry is not. My first experience was a minus of 130 cute euros
Total at several casinos, which made me angry and I withdrew all my remaining
Money, hence the small amount. These fits of rage have remained and
protect me permanently from gambling addiction. I only gamble when I have time and
and that is scarce, as I am busy with other profitable, interesting projects
interesting projects. I'm just not the addictive type and I wish you were. 3000
is a lot, but it's manageable. Worse is the loss of friends and reputation.
All the best!
