I just fucked up big time. 

Hi I am Mark a 20y old male working part time job in the morning and studying in the afternoon at the moment.

I got my paycheck and decided to deposit a little as always to have some fun on stake. I lost my deposit and for some reason decided to chase my loses until i get it back. In the end  I unfortunately did not win my money back, instead I ripped all my money i had in my bank account (1.3k euro) while having some bills left to payout. I am so angry and frustrated with myself i cannot even describe it, I dont know what to really do at this point I know for a fact im not gambling ever again in my life but I will somehow need to survive this month.

So guys dont gamble its just a big money sink you will lose. Its fun at first sure, but one time losing your cool and control is enough to ruin your life. Spread the message if you want so other people see this and maybe save some other soul out there. 

I just needed to get it off my chest guys thank you for taking your time reading this.

We are all going to make it.

Trust me i did lose a lot of money gambling but when you lose everything you had for that month its hits different. I promised myself i will never do it again. What is lost is lost.

I will do just that. Quit forever. I will also self-exclude.

Hi Mark,

The next few months will suck, but you need to take the punishment without taking any shortcuts. This is the medicine which you need to swallow if you want a healthy future.

Don't be like me and many others here and repeat the same mistake for years or decades. If you don't think that's even possible, then as shitty as you feel right now, you don't understand the crossroads that you're standing at. You've got the disease that a lot of us do and it will kill you one way or another. This is your opportunity to kill it.. please kill it.

I know it's a lot of money in your situation, but €1.3k is a cheap lesson at 20 years old. It's gone - you've spent it to learn that there's a part of your brain that you need to police and to realise that you don't want to fuck your life up.

Try to figure out whatever underlying issues you have that have caused this, because it's usually a symptom of something else.

And you've fucked up, but you're not an idiot, so don't beat yourself up about it. Accept it for what it is and accept the flaw that you've learned you have.

❤️
