I thought this is madness carried on, won another £800, about 12 months later I’m maybe £4000 down. More importantly I spent all that time.

      True brother. I can feel his pain. I probably didn’t lose much like him but I have won a lot and lost a lot too. I notice now that most of the time I won but because we are human being and not a machine. We get off track and emotional get involved and that how I got out of my system and lost. I played baccarat and roulette and especially in baccarat I have won more than $120k usd in 3 days. Not lying but in 30 minutes of getting mad because of emotional s I lost it all back and including my 10k bank roll as well. I have a good system but I know now that it’s almost impossible to do it alone because no one can keep themselves under good control for a long period of time. So now I know that only play small sessions. Making a little bit then leave. That’s the best only of you have bank roll and system and know what you doing. Never walk into the casino and thinking luck alone gonna win. Because if there’s luck there’s a thing call bad luck too but ,most people only think of good luck and not bad luck lol

I owe money to friends and family and the worst thing is that I won 3,000 dlls this weekend and lost them again. I am desperate, I cant sleep, I am in a bad mood all the time and currently I hate life and no one knows about it and I can’t tell no one.

    I've been a social gambler for six years, and it was nothing crazy until now. The last two months are a nightmare. I'm currently in debt to my brother and my mother. Yesterday I've gambled my salary away which I was working really hard for, working overtime for it. Last weeks my thoughts were only focused on cutting my losses by placing a correct bet on the correct soccer game. The only way to cut losses though is to stop betting and focus on your job.

      My last bet was today. Although I had periods of breaks and start over today I can say that I completely lost my appetite. It's simple: we must be aware about the fact that the house always wins and that there are so many variables that on the long run is just futile and destructive. Now I will go and buy some KFC and some chocolates and I will spend my time with my girlfriend/friends. The first sign of maturity is to know that success comes with extensive work...never by cutting corners. Head up, man!

      This is a very insightful comment. A spiritual teacher named Eckhart Tolle describes this exact phenomenon in his books. He says the ego (or what he calls the "pain body") is addicted to pain. It feeds on pain. It requires more pain to survive. Most people with a strong ego will seek out situations that are guaranteed to cause more pain in the long run. It is a deep seeded and hidden part of a person's psyche to need and want pain, so it is not obvious at first. It is exactly the same phenomenon with alcoholism, drugs, and most other compulsions/addictions. At the sick mind's core is an addiction to pain. Tolle and other spiritual teachers show you ways to transcend the egoic mind to get out of the cycle of pain. This man's recovery began when he got on his knees and asked God for help. Chapter 4 of the big book in AA talks about a spiritual awakening from the sick mind by seeking out a power greater than our minds. There are a lot of ways of transcending the sick ego/mind, but they all involve a spiritual awakening in some form or another. You cannot fix your sick mind with your sick mind.

Am thankful that my wife didnt take my family away from me....that was now 7-1/2 years ago. What an amazing family that I have the opportunity to be a part of. I also learned not to be so judgmental of others in difficult situations, even if it was caused by poor and self destructive actions.

I in fact did see a counselor that brought to my attention that there were underlying issues that were coming out in misbehavior and self inflicted harm. I would highly suggest that you reach out to a professional. The money I spent was minimal compared to what I would have spent continuing on the path I was. It’s been almost 10 years now, and I still have to consciously be aware of my mental health and what effect it can have on my actions. In short though, I can say with confidence that stepping away from a certain level of lifestyle was important for me. Keeping things simple removes a level of anxiety that tends to influence my seeking out what I feel at the time is financial success. The less my “need” for financial gain, the less likely I am to make rash decisions that I tend to justify in the moment.

    I work with Justyn occasionally and he is very good at what he does. His message is very important in my humble. Stealing from employers I can't condone but I have not been in his situation. However, we all deserve another chance and good on him for his honesty.

    It's true, I won in one night playing around 4 hours in 3000 dollar machines, with small bets and I thought this is my day, I started betting big and lost everything in minutes.... worse was the feeling of guilt knowing I I could have gone with a sum that would have changed my economy for many months... addiction is not always visible, it is difficult to accept it, and most can tell you to stop going to the casino and it's over... but your brain works on you the mind...

      But I bet you have no problem buying a drink which for a lot of people turns into a problem, most gamblers don’t consider that they’re losing money that’s not what the addiction is about, it’s the dopamine rush that is the same feeling meth users get, it hits the same receptors so they are chasing the rush not the winning or losing of money. It’s about brain science something most people don’t understand they only understand money not the cost of gaining or losing it. You may never understand because your brain operates under another pleasure/pain receptors in your brain.

    i search for this on yotube finally and i think this story is just.. spot on what i needed to hear, and the comments, on the bright side i guess i didnt went into any debt, but this has been crushing any progress in my life, for years now.. i cant even imagine how much better my life would be right now if i didnt lose all that money, i worked so hard for some of it and thats what kills me, i have been stuck in mediocrity for years because of this sh*t this is just soul taking, i have been corrupting my soul with shame and lies, i hope i can leave this forever i really want to i swear.. and i will try again.. hopefully this is the one for me now and i really hope is the one for all of you.

      We are an addict in many other ways not described here. We have to learn to beat that feeling where it makes us feel we're right and this might just be the one that takes me to victory. It's just probability. But you need a lot of information and also know how to analyse that information to give you a certain threshold where it makes sense to take that bet. I'm not taking about slot machines. There's stock market , there's poker and blackjack which allows for such processes.
