Hi, So I am an international student studying software engineering. I started playing online casinos in the last few months. At first, I enjoyed it very much because I was winning but then I started to lose money. I did not realise that I am putting all my tuition fees into gambling.Â
My parents are in India and their situation is not so good. Even though they sent me here to study and I had around 8000 pounds they gave for the fees. But it's me fu**ing stupid who wanted to earn money from gambling and it turned out wrong. Now I have lost all the money I had. Can not even tell my parents or any friends or family. I know I can not just get my money back but still it is very difficult at this for me because I have to pay my tuition fees and If I do not pay them I will be withdrawn from my studies and will have to go back to my home country. Sitting here, getting depressed vibes, totally hopeless, can not sleep etc. I just have no more words to explain my situation. Please if anyone is reading this, get in touch with me please.
Can I suggest getting in touch with your university as they will have people on the student body who can support you with guidance or support you with getting help for your problem.
You need to talk to someone so that you don’t feel alone at this time.
Good luck
Chris.
