I think his problems are really more psychological than financial. The important thing now is that he opens up to his environment and looks for an occupation with which he can spend his free time meaningfully. Anyway, I wish him all the best for the future.

First about me and my gambling addiction...
I (M22) am addicted to gambling for about 5 years.(Net loss about 150000€)

Was clean for a year in 2022 and then moved to a new city.(was in therapy when I was clean) I earn very good money for my age about 5200€ gross so I could afford a nice apartment in the city paid for the about 1100€ a month.

That went well the first few months met a new woman unfortunately from another city and fell in love with me. and suddenly it started again... Have in about 3 months (January - March) my entire savings 15000 € gambled away and stood with zero there did not even know how to pay for the apartment... then quickly taken 2000 € loan for apartment, etc. but that is already paid off again.

Then I have not played again about 1 1/5 months. (April - mid-May) Then I decided to move back to my parents in September. And thought yes I just take me 15000€ credit so I can then buy a car because there I need one...

No sooner said than done I took the loan and kept the money in my account where it remained until today. Today have of my 20000€ I had on the account 10000€ gambled away so almost everything from credit.
have now still about 10000€ over if I keep that I can buy me in September a car but the credit is gone in the end just like that and that must now be paid off every month...

I just do not know any further 400 € fixed costs per month by the loan I know myself to blame but I was just again like in a trance.

I have now already such a long gaming career behind me but today was so bad I have on the way home really briefly considered just run in front of the tracks. But then I remembered my girlfriend and then the thought was quickly gone.

Because credit I will be able to pay off somehow but it makes me still so ready just to pay for nothing 400 € a month. I just feel like I just do not get in my life in a row and it would be best just not to exist Thank you and LG

I am really sorry to read this! Just losing 10,000€ in one day must be warmly violent, but still life and you is worth so much more!


You can do this, I firmly believe in you! You have a very good salary and will get out of it well, but take the opportunities to be able to play.

Absolutely right.

None of us know the TE. Everyone deals with a situation like that differently.

Nice that at 43 you still haven't realized that people are different and react differently to bad events. In addition, I admire your ability to judge people based on a post. That is a masterful achievement, respect!

He may be a whiner in your eyes, but in my eyes he deserves respect because he has achieved a lot at 22 and even deserves more than some users here.

I have deleted the corresponding post and apologize.

One should have so much empathy and communication skills not to write such nonsense. Especially not when it comes to Gambling addiction and its consequences.

I am glad that the majority of the community is different in this subject area and that people here support each other.

You again with your double standards

In the end you don't give a damn.

Or does anyone go to therapy with him ?

Maybe it was a bit harsh to say ?

But at 22 years of "I can no longer" write and life would be over because you now have 400 € fixed costs with an income of 5200 € gross and from 20000 only 10000 € has left ?

Where do you actually live?

Have any of you ever had cancer ?

Then you know what it means to be "alive" and that all your addiction is only a minimum of that.

Still stand by my opinion even if some find it disgusting. 👍

The little boy is not so extremely wrong. Earns enough money, has a social environment, can even move back in with his parents, girlfriend, etc., you can also just do something without thinking about the gambling. There are enough "addicts" who are much worse off and a car for 3000€ does it too. Yes and no matter what addiction to be addicted to something that can also be very expensive is always shit

Exactly Donnie... that's what I meant !

But I'm very direct about it.

For me, it seems like to draw pity on himself and all fall for it and make one on moral apostle.

As written. He is fine !

Does not have to go to the tables etc...

If people didn't give a shit, nobody would have written anything.

Why can't you wish him lots of strength, give him tips, etc. without going to therapy with him?

So, for example, I have to go to therapy with every drug addict from the station district in Frankfurt just because I wish them to get out of their predicament?

Otherwise the wishes are not meant seriously or how? What kind of logic is that?

Not just maybe. You have a) totally missed the mark in the tone and b) not shown empathy

Yes, it may be that other people are worse off. People who suffer from incurable diseases, people who live in war zones or 3rd countries and and and., but:

just because there are worse conditions, it does not mean that it gives you the right to make such statements. The TE has specially registered here and has written his sorrow and shared it with us.

Since you do not want to understand it or can, I spare you to explain this further.

You know what would have been right? To report here in the thread, apologize for his comment and close the topic. Instead, you continue to comment in a provocative manner and justify yourself because you are convinced that you did not write anything wrong. Insight? Out of place.

Apologize for what ?

Because a 22 year old is not in control of his life ?

Didn't write anything wrong - just what some here think but don't have the GUTS to make it public !

Just do not go with the crowd and make here one on Meldemuschi.

Think what you want - I also do - and since this is a forum, I may also write.

This TE has a problem yes but a luxury problem !!!!
