Antonin 3,505 Posted August 10, 2022 Gambling pisses me off. I always tried to quit, you know that. I quit for two years. I was however happy to stop this demon for a while and then I fall back into it each time. I don't know how I'm going to be able to stop for good and never touch it again. Yet I have tried a million times. Yes, I know, it's my fault, not gambling. Whenever I'm bored and having nothing to do, I always have these impulses that invade me inside. Why ? I have lost enough money and yey. Whenever I earn good amount of money, I can't help myself. What has changed compared to before is that I still have money left in my accounts. But it's not funny at all to lose. Thank you for listening to me. I am sick. I don't want to give up this battle though. . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe try and find something else that could interest you so that when you get bored you can do that so that you are not tempted to gamble because of the boredom. I have been there in the past where I easily got bored and so just went off and gambled, you have the money so it does not mean a particular difficulty but after you lose the money and think what you could of done with it you feel sick to the stomach. I wish I could tell you it will go away and you will stop gambling but after 40 years of it myself ( I am sure some other older folks on here are the same) I can only say you are stuck with it. You can however take steps to stop you doing huge sums in one go and as I say try and find something else to go to to relieve the boredom I really hope it works out for you @Antonin . I was really pleased for you when you went those two years with no gambling 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s a daily battle mate, I thought I was out the woods until an alternative way to work around gamstop was given to me by someone who should know better. Barely interested in racing and have only been in a casino twice in my life.. I deposit low (£30) but regular. Your a great guy Antonin, very honest and upfront, I wish you wholeheartedly all the best. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
