Had a crazy win streak in a week-made 3600$ from 100$ and lost it ALL+1000$ from my paycheck. Can’t express how this crushed me emotionally but i think you can imagine when we are in this sub.

First thing, I accepted I have a real problem, and I can’t solely rely on myself saying i won’t gamble again (you know how it goes). Never thought i would end up in this situation. I had to come up with some idea how to never gamble again, make precautions for me to make it hard/impossible to gamble.

WHAT WORKED FOR ME

1. In my country, there is an option to opt out from gambling (in official goverment office). I can’t enter a casino or play online anymore. I know this is not a option for everyone, and it doesn’t apply to foreign/unlicenced casinos, so i have one more precaution.

2. I installed an app that blocked me from entering gambling sites/apps. There is a pre-made gambling block with 30+ gambling sites (you can add more sites and apps manually too) that makes it impossible to open gambling site or an app. I love that once blocked (+activating strict mode), you really can’t remove this block, unlike in settings app on iPhone. I can also watch my no gambling streak which is a nice detail.

I hope I can help as much people with dealing with this disgusting addiction. Feel free to ask me anything!
