Hello, I am 24 years old and I started sports betting for the first time in a tobacco shop when I was 18 years old. In 2019, I got to know about online betting sites and that's when the problems started. During covid, I started to bet bigger sums. I had lost so much money that I had moments of sadness, loneliness, change of behavior. Once I had nothing left in my account and I still wanted to play. In 2021, I was banned by the ANJ but unfortunately I relapsed on foreign sites. Between 2019 and 2024, I lost a lot of money, I don't want to know how much I lost, it scares me too much. I relapsed a month ago and emptied what was left in my account, I had been saving for a few months, everything is gone. I played sums that I couldn't afford. Today I don't have the value of money anymore, I don't have a job for health reasons, I just have a little help per month. I think about all the money I've lost, I think that's eating me up. I wonder how I got here? I'm 24 years old and I've lost all my savings. I made an appointment to be followed I can't do much more of this life, I only have remorse, I don't get out of it anymore. I feel like I'm the only one of my age to have bet such huge amounts per game. I tell myself every time, I should never have plunged into these gambling games that hurt me a lot.
