My addiction

Moin,

i'm trying to finally finish with my "addiction". Do not really have people with whom I can talk about something like that, so I write it down here.

About me I'm 21 and a student, with the game I started as a fun. I played online with friends for 20€ on 20 Cent, everything was still in the frame.
When Corona started and you couldn't do anything, I started to play more and more, be it Blackjack or just any slots. 20€ quickly became 200€ or even more. For some this may be nothing, for me it is a lot!
I could sometimes just not stop playing, I always thought "the next 200€ is it, then he must give me something back." So today I gambled away 2000€, then I thought to myself now enough.

Today I finally dared to talk to someone about my addiction. I have always been so ashamed, but it had to come out today
I lay partly at night in bed and thought about suicide, because I did not know where I should take the money for bills.

Sorry if it is partly a bit incomprehensible, I just wrote down my thoughts.

With kind regards

Maxi

Good morning,

First of all, stop blaming it on Corona.

You have massive loss of control, so my favorite addiction shifting option fails.

On the bright side, you haven't been playing deep or long enough and therapy could help you (personally, I'm against therapy for long-term players).

I don't know how you can organize that with your studies.

I guess a lot of people in this forum are deeper in the sh###.
The gambling addict is a master in building an illusory world.

Good luck I give you even over 50% that you will make it.

Welcome to the forum knackei.

It was in any case a very good step from you to realize your problem.
You don't have to be ashamed of your addiction and we think it's really commendable that you already took the step to talk to someone about your problem.

We also think it's good that you have the courage to share your thoughts with our community, and we would recommend that you also seek professional help, there are many places nowadays where you can ask for help anonymously and talk to someone about it, if one day you get negative thoughts again, for example:
https://www.anonyme-spieler.org/
https://www.gluecksspielsucht.de/

We really hope for you that everything will change for the better in a short time and we wish you only the best for the future!

Remember: Money is nothing. Your life is everything. With therapies you can get back into life and also debts we can cancel in Germany for people who need help so that it goes forward again. You just have to look for help and accept it. Good luck
