That’s the good thing. Stopping in your tracks by saying something . Years ago I use to go in bookies and either walk out skint after clearing my wallet then my bank account because of fobt roulette.
Or walk out massively up , BUT then think I’m invincible and blow the lot in another bookies then again my bank account.
Either way I was always skint. Maybe loaded for one night at most. Terrible terrible things.
The other night I screwed up went in bookies with £100 then lost went to bank another £200 down to my last £20.. I’m shaking feeling sick, knowing I’m going to go bk to bank and end up destroyed.
But then I hit 0 twice bringing my up to 200. I did another spin £20 lost. Then right at that moment I thought about the stories I’ve read on this forum which includes mine own posts. It made me hit collect and walk £100 down.
I was proud I walked but absolutely gutted I’d put myself in this position, even a £100 lost has made things hard for me going into a new year.
I needed to say something to someone, I’ve always been a secret gamberler so dint want to vent to my mate and look daft. But you guys I can say how I felt, what I needed to say to feel better. And it worked I expected the loss and haven’t gone chasing like before ..
This forum has a lot going for it. I’m here everyday
