I guess there were some that came up to the point of level 7 to 10 thinking to become a full time gambler because they were winning. I can say that I'm in Level 0 to Level 2.
I'm believing that I can recover my losses somehow by renovating strategies although I have an idea that it will be a difficult time for me. But, I can verify that I'm not totally addicted to it and still fine with my mental and emotional issues.

Was level 3, but now I'm back to 0.
Am one of the lucky gamblers who've ended the addiction on profit. I ended mine when I started thinking thoroughly the consequences addiction implies. I knew this would one day end in a big loss I couldn't recover from - only few are lucky enough to earn a fortune and not lose it.
My routine back when I was addicted was like: wake up - make coffee - play on PrimeDice - sleep - repeat. It was an endless cycle of me betting, but to be honest, the chat on there was very fun so were the tips and random rains.

Level 0 and Level 1
Gambling isnt the only thing that do entertain me when im in boredom.There are lots of activities that i can choose from to enjoy myself without involving any money.
Also i do play on my vacant time and using up my excess money to play without compromising responsibilities in real life. Needs first before anything else because
i dont like to mess up life or making my own problems that will come out late on if i do prioritize gambling.

i think this belongs to the first level of gambling . im at the beining level of addiction . im always busy with my job online and being online i got distracted , i keep on opening a new tab to visit a gambling site . i lost but i dont give up . i believe that sometimes i can won a decent amount and whenever i win something decent , i cant stop because i think i can earn more than that and i got fcked up eventually . all of those levels needs an imediate treatment so that the problem wont worsen at the future
