Gambling Addiction

I know, but it puts a small roadblock in the way of gambling online.

the problem with that is it's so easy to install those programs again. but yo OP, you need to get some help for real if it's an issue.

i was putting $50 at a time playing BJ, losing it over and over again, not as severe as you, but i def. know where you're coming from.

Yeah, I seriously need help. I am looking online for some advice maybe like an AA group but for gamblers.

I dont think I can ever stop gambling.... OP,Is what you lost really hurting your pockets though?? I mean some people are going

at $5,000 and $3,000 but is it really stopping you from doing anything? Gambling money is exactly what it is but if you missing mortgage and carpayments then thats another story

I have been taking major L's as of late. This past summer I lost $5,000 in Atlantic City playing Black Jack. Now I am down another $3,000 and some change playing Black Jack online. I cant quit. Every time I tell myself not to play anymore, I end up going back.

wow i thought i was doin bad when i put a 100 on texas to cover against texas tech

i havent bet since then but im goin right back at this weekend
eff the cards. ncaa and nfl ftw

I cant quit. Every time I tell myself not to play anymore, I end up going back. Any one else got a gambling issue? If so what are some help full ways to stop?
i used to be like that when i was a lil younger, but now if i see myself losin consistently ill stop and ask myself do i truly think i can stillwin money or even break even. chances are the answer is no so more than likely ill gracefully bow-out. Losin 100 is alot better than losin 1000 all because youwas chasin 100. Learn how to take the L and fight another day.

Scared money don't make money though...
a gamblers motto

exactly...i mean i'm at the casino about twice a month...i host poker games prob twice a month and i play online when i'mbored...sometimes you win, sometimes you lose...but thats certain money set aside to have fun...if i didnt gamble it it would just be spent popping bottles atclubs or on overpriced clothes - i've never dipped into the stash nor bill money- lately ive been spending more just cause i havent been in clubs asmuch...it all balances out...at least at the casino i can leave with more than i came with!
