Why Can't I Just Stop?
1. How did this happen? I can't believe all the trouble I'm in.
2. If I stop rambling now, I'll have to admit I'm a total loser. 3. There's no way I can pay back all the money I owe.
4. If I had the money to invest, I'm sure my luck would change. I just need one more win.
5. Even if I had another win, I'd probably just lose it again.
6. I can't face this mess alone, but I'm too embarrassed to ask for help.
7. I should be able to solve my own problems. How could I be so stupid?
8. I never thought it would get this bad.

Have you ever say those words to yourself? I think those people who always do gambling are really familiar with those words, some of them are now facing problems with their family, love ones, friend, career, etc. because of issues about their gambling lifestyle, they tend to fix the problem but the urge to gamble seems too great to resist.

Have you ever feel those things? If you are one of them facing those kinds of things for more than two weeks then I think you are depressed and have anxiety because of doing gamble often. If you want to prevent those things try to speak it out to your family or to the people you can trust with.
The worst thing that can have in gambling is the suicidal thought, some people who are thinking that way are really into gambling, that is what you can have when you get so addicted to it. If you feel that way, professionals consult some professionals on how are you going to fix the problem.
Just a friendly reminder, if addicted like you are being addicted to gambling, try to do some action to prevent it, you may do some other things like.
1. Focus on doing some other things.with. Try to spend your time with your family and your career.
3. Have a hang out with your friends.
4. Make yourself busy.
