Hello my name is Mike, Today is 5.5.2025. Everything ended today. I have been strugling with gambling addiction on/off for last 5years. Everything started 10years ago. I dont talk about all of the gambling and wins/losses on this post but i open up the situation i am on rn. 6months ago i managed to win ALOT and i compeletely lost moneys value and ended up to lose it all. That didnt make me feel that bad because it was all winning money. I made promise that i would not gamble anymore but you know already what happened. I found my self gambling so many times. I have relapsed too many times dont even know how many times. But yeah i sold my car back in 2months ago, i made promise that i wouldnt gamble that away, but today everything changed. I lost my all savings what i got from that car. I dont even know how it ended up like this. On half way down i knew i would lose all that. I just let it happen. After that lose i took my phone and made the call for my dad, i told him everything. That was first time i opened up about my gambling addiction. I am releaved about this i now got to tell him and i dont need to strugle alone anymore. Same time i hate my self and hate what i did. My life was on good track. I had money and future looked good. Now i have nothing and i dont even have any interest on my life. I would want to go sleep to feel normal. My life is so f****d up rn. I hope that anyone who reads this, stops before its too late.
