Confession on Gambling

[KyleSmiles]

Well, recently I’ve gambled around $40 and although its not a lot, I have a strangle tingling to want more. I know a bunch of people who have lost tons of money yet I still do it. I know tons of people who make tons of money but im still scared to gamble sometimes. I gambled a little for fun today, but don’t want to get addicted. Can I hear the community’s thoughts on online gambling? I also have to confess I’ve lost thousands over csgo gambling. So, as a victim of bad luck, i can promise you it sucks. I wanna hear your guys input on gambling in general.

Can you afford to lose that ammount of money and is it still fun? Ask that question if it is no longer fun stop

I was tempted to gamble very recently (a few hours ago, to be exact) - I was literally staring at my screen and looking at how 'easy' it was to make money on bustabit but I knew that something bad is bound to happen, just based on what other people have said. I don't have firsthand experience with gambling but I know some people who have and it's a dark path. I suggest practicing self control and to not gamble ever again. If you feel an urge to gamble, no matter how small, use that money somewhere else - buy a book, maybe get some food, new clothes, or anything else really just don't gamble.

i lost my money on bustabit hhaa[DOUBLEPOST=1543212509][/DOUBLEPOST]

a year ago i played on bustabit, started from like $5 and made my way up to $400 and cashed out, i'd say it's worth it but i mean don't get too addicted. when you know that you have enough, cashout and don't go back in for a while (atleast what i did)

wow! you have a winning story, nice to hear titanic

My grandparents are very flexible.
They don’t care if their kids smoke, drink, party, drop out or refuse to work.

But they will disown you if they ever hear you gambling. Even lotto tickets aren’t allowed in my household

I'd also like to add, I was addicted to gambling at a point in time. Coinflip was my drug of choice. The high probability and rush was everything I craved. The desire to solve all of my problems all in one swoop was too much to resist. However, it was never enough. No matter how much I won, I never won. Until the day I finally figured out why I kept doing it, and that was to solve my problems. Once I took a step back and began to deal with the real problem, the desire to gamble slowly diminished. Bit by bit, my life changed.

Nowadays the only times I want to gamble or fall back on my previous patters are days in which I'm feeling down. The real truth is just used it to escape, but it isn't an escape. It's just a temporary mask that dissolves after you overcome the obstacle.

Change your mind, and you change your life.

I’m not trying to get help, as I had all my friends to stop the csgo coinflips. I just was playing gambling yesterday, and it really kinda worked they suck you in! I didnt rage gamble, but I could see someone that could’ve. I just want to hear everyone’s opnions and experiences with this.

Just don't, there's many more ways to invest your money that don't often end with you losing it. Put it in a cryptocurrency or something, because maybe one day it'll blow up. Who knows?

Don’t gamble, I’ve lost over 2k gambling (that’s 2k of my own money, not 2k loosing my “profits”), I’ve turned $20 into 1k more then once, but because of the rush and high I keep going and loose it all, just not worth it. People will tell you to just set a goal and get out when you hit that, but when you just took $20 to $100 why stop there?
