Hello Together!

I want to tell you my story very briefly.

I am now 20 years young have already so about 300000€ verspeilt of course also what won but mostly lost.

Yesterday I gambled away again as good as all my money 12000€ have now still 900€ for 3 weeks then I get back money from community service whole 800€

Have actually a well-paid job get there so 3200 gross a month but for 8 months I'm in community service and get here only 800€.

The money I had gambled away yesterday I would have actually really needed because I'm just another month in community service and only then get back my normal salary.

I was yesterday shortly before my life to end it but then not made what was also good.

If it still someone Interresiert, my parents know about my Gambling addiction have told them when I won 4 months ago 20000 €. But they believe that I still have 12000 € of it, but I gambled it away yesterday.

Do you think I should talk to them again and tell them? This is very hard for me I do not want to disappoint them again where.

PS: I have already registered 2 months ago with an addiction counselor but they offer because of Corona just Zoom meetings and that's crappy.

Thank you for all the help.

I think telling the truth is always the right decision and could also take a lot of pressure off you, even if it is unpleasant! I think it's very good that you seek professional help and wish you all the best on your way! I know this myself, these evenings where you spend a lot and it's just disgusting afterwards, even if the amounts are much smaller for me. You are still young with your 30 years and still have a lot ahead of you!

Hey LostinSpace,

First of all it would be important to inform your parents about your problem, that the situation is unpleasant for you is understandable,
nevertheless, there is nothing to be ashamed of in this situation.

You should also not be afraid of disappointing your parents with this news, in the end you should look to be helped, and that is best if you start to be transparent with the issue and let your family know about your problem, this is also extremely important for your own development, otherwise it may be difficult for you to reflect on yourself and properly acknowledge your problem.

The longer you hide your problem from your family, the deeper you get into a certain "bubble" where you are constantly looking for excuses to hide your Gambling addiction, and in the end you are only lying to them, and this in turn only reinforces your gambling addiction, as you start to win back your money by any means possible, hoping that no one will find out about your problem.

In this situation, as I said, it would be very important to involve your family, to have them by your side and to acknowledge the problem for yourself

The fact that only Zoom meetings are offered due to the Corona situation is of course a bit stupid.
Nevertheless, this should not be an excuse for not considering this.
In the end, it will only get worse if you drag it out further.

There are many counseling centers on the Internet that can help you and possibly offer you alternatives:



We at GambleJoe truly wish from the bottom of our hearts that you will address your problem and have the courage to take the right steps

Please seek professional help. If you need help I can certainly provide you with contact opportunities. Right now you are thinking negative! It's totally normal, 300k is a lot of money but look at it this way, it's way. You can always start from 0! So do wealthy people, so it's not a leg break

I can only agree with all

Talk to your parents there is no shame everyone has weaknesses and strengths and Gambling addiction is a disease that makes it anything but easy I know people with very big personalities and even they are suppressed by addiction

You have nothing to blame yourself for and I promise if you talk to your parents and learn to appreciate other things in life you will in time have the best feeling because you have managed to conquer this disgusting addiction

It will get better believe me you have lost a lot that's true but there are people including me who have sunk a lot more so of course I can fully understand how you feel but that too will change money comes and goes

The important thing is that you have recognized it and are seizing the moment to rise from the ashes and show the addiction who is in charge here it will be hard that is clear but with your parents together it will be ok

I would communicate openly with your parents. Say you have lost control and that they should please first manage your money

Or just block everything. Online banking a limit at the ATM and so on

I've also already a lot Verballert but that's just money that is never as precious as a life you can always distract well I think if you really want to gamble times speaks nothing against it if you have it under control

Cheer up money comes and goes you're still young there will still be many mistakes and you can not always give up immediately... just learn from it and do not make such a cheese more

In addition to the tips mentioned here, you should make an appointment with a psychologist, because suicidal thoughts are very insidious and often come again and again.

Good luck to you.

Leesaah had also registered here in the forum a few days ago and offered her help when people are stuck in Gambling addiction and want to get out of it. It's her area of expertise because she does it for a living.
