What is wrong with me!?

first of you aren't a mess, it's the addiction and control it has over you.

I have the exact same problem as you, I don't know when to quit and blow money I can't afford to lose, you've done the right thing by looking at this forum and think a meeting will help further.

I blocked all online gambling today, and any game to do with gambling and will move on from it before it got out of hand.

Thanks withers.

I've tried blocking and self-excluding myself. I always find a way back in though, through another site or what. I wish there was such a thing as a web-wide self-exclusion.

I could attempt to ask every online bookmaker...

i feel your pain elvis.

i do exactly the same on-line lost a few hundred this week all online betting on tennis matches

like you, i have a bad addiction to on-line gambling i don't go the bookies as i feel embarrassed going in their and don't feel the the need to chase compared to on-line when its at your finger tips.

up and down all the time but eventually lose it all.

i kid myself every month and say i will stop!

my life has declined big time now, and i like you will give my all to stop this addiction as my life was great before gambling

take care and do something about your situation

no problem, today was a bad day for me too, but deciding to do something about is better than going round in the same outcome... the outcome of which some unfortunate people who were addicted for years have lost there wives, houses, access to kids and jobs through debt and gambling.

I think were very lucky to the point were nothing extremely serious has been the outcome of gambling yet and can learn from our mistakes at the beginning to put an end to it before something serious does happen.

I myself suffer from online gambling and seriously don't know when to quit, but thinking about it I'll never be happy with any amount I win because I always want more, I always chase my lost money and it's something you are always going to lose.

Couldn't agree more with you.

I think we gamble because of insecurity and other absences in life.

My work colleagues ask me every month what I have done with all my extra earning from overtime and late shift, and lie all the time and tell them I went out. Etc but really I would hide in a room alone and try to get that high feeling and buzz from gambling

I have lost a few good friends through gambling and some very important people.

I honest can't tell when this will end but it can and I will beat this curse.

i was the same i would never dream of walking into a bookies and placing 100 quid on a team to win yet i would waste thousands online.

I suppose its because you can do it on your own in your bedroom etc and no one can see you face to face.

Your losses seem relatively small, walk away now and get new hobbies because it will get worse

It's easy to say but so hard to pull away tho.

What do you bet on steve?

I'm excluding myself once again from the last know website I am on.

trueboff my original post from 8 weeks ago is just below this one. feeling suicidal post.

I was betting on in my eyes dead certs to win. I had 22k saved up over ten years and blew nearly all of it in one day.

Big money on say teams like chelsea to win at odds of 2/5 to win a small profit.

My bets kept on losing and i stupidly chased my losses.
