Relapse hurts...

Relapsed yesterday after 3 months GF. I wrote a post on here about 3 months ago and this forum has helped me tremendously during the last few months,. I was just starting to get back on my feet and I relapsed yesterday and lost over $10K online on the only site that my self-inclusion did not work. I wish it did, I wish I could rewind back 48 hours. That's all I need.

Finally realized i had a problem

I'm 28 and have been gambling since 15. Did not hit casinos until 21. Usually just got fun. Didn't get bad until the past 6 months I have been playing baccarat quite successfully during this time, I was able to build up a 15 K bankroll after a series of lucky sessions and discipline, money management, etc, and I lost it all in one hour. I feel sick to my stomach because I could really ...

Both parents are addicted to stock trading

Hello, this is my first post on this forum.

My parents spend all day staring at stock quotes. I wouldn't be posting this if they were any good, but they are essentially gambling. They have no idea really how the market works and are trading according to what other traders on the internet say (the stock is going up! down! etc).

I have tried to talk them out of it, but they will not listen ...

My standard trap ...

Ok - 19 days GF and feeling very positive.

Just wanted to tell you my experience of my usual betting pattern, obviously I've tried everything from Football, Horses, Dogs, Tennis to online Casinos - it was the Internet gambling on my phone that really notched up my gambling habits. No longer needing to go to a bookies when it was all there on my phone!

So here's how I would feed a gambling urge.

Wake ...

Reborn again

Hi guys,

Long time lurker here, somehow I've managed to make this account some years back but have always shied away and been a serial lurker.

Enough is enough, here's a little bit about me. I'm from Sydney, Australia where slot machines (pokies) are almost around every corner. I'm 23 y/o and has been a compulsive gambler for the past 5 years. My story is almost the same as every other degenerate gambler so there's ...

6 months gamble free on the 25th

Hello everyone. Well it's almost been 6 months since I have entered a casino.... the 25th to be exact.
I'm still following my everydollar budget and it's working. My hubby and I have paid off about 18 000 of the 185 000( 100 000 my hidden gambling debt) unsecured debt (4 months on the budget)... barely a dent I know but it's very satisfying. I don't know where we find the extra but it's obvious ...

Forgive yourself. Guilt keeps you gambling.

I felt so guilty when, in the first few months of my entering gambling at casinos, I had lost $7,000 of my savings. I couldn't fathom it. I was raised to be responsible with money. But ... I felt like I had to get it back, and that meant gambling more, trying to master blackjack and do it better. So . . . three years and three months later, when I finally stopped, and I ...

Best Wishes

Part of my recovery has always been to improve on my faults other than my gambling addiction. One of my major faults has always been to let people talk down/take advantage of me and not stand up for myself like I should. I've generally never thought much of myself so I automatically assume I deserve it. I've been having some personal problems lately *mod edit*

So I've deleted the account I started way back when ...

Site hijacked?

Last couple of days I have noticed this site is acting strange. First, new ads are popping up with sound interrupting, and it's something I never saw before, as I am reading the posts. Secondly, the page keeps jumping back and forth constantly every couple of seconds as I'm trying to read and it seems out of control...
Has this site been HIJACKED or HACKED????
