Fly a plane. Try skydiving. Wrestle a shark. Take down some drug lord in South American. Buy 10,000 dildos and litter them on Paypal's lawn. If you're gonna go broke, do it by doing something no one else has done before. Something epic, because gambling is lame.
From those I've only tried skydiving but it's the 2nd best cure for depression I can think of. Compulsive addictions, be it compulsive gambling, smoking, drugs, ... are a coping method to feel better. Ask yourself if you feel bad/unhappy in your soul. Why? What are you missing in your life? Did u have a healthy upbringing with enough support, care, warmth, love? How are the people close in your life treating you?
It's about brain chemistry. Human brain is still quite similar to what it was when we were hunter-gatherers and it rewards risk taking. For some people (like me) this is a bigger problem and they need to take risks to feel happy or even normal. I think it changes when you get older though. At least today I don't have the similar urge to do extreme sports as I had 10 years ago.I also had a gambling problem, but after I became a winning poker player the -EV games lost most of their appeal.

I just lost 20 BTC with 50% dice what do I do please help me
This is what happened when I tried daytrading https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/i-sold-at-57-fml-178706
I read the entire thread. It's a heartbreaker. Glad you're still in the game b!z, a lot of guys wouldn't have come back after that.
Make your set of rules and follow them. Each time when you feel excited and want to game the system... Tell yourself "I am not a gambler, I am a trader"...
When you distribute your wealth among different assets and exchanges, it is not that easy to loose it all... Even if you sold bitcoins at $50, you didn't loose 100% of your capital. You can think of it as preserving its USD value, that is not that bad!
Bitcoin is a risky business after all. If its rate went back to $15, you would be happy. But nobody knows where it goes, so just keep your portfolio diversified and don't risk more than some %% of your capital per order or per day.
And remember: it is almost impossible to loose all of your money trading unless you use margin trading or make dozens of trades a day (and paying fees to exchange).
I just gave a quick look at your post history, and sadly I have to say that you are really THAT stupid.
At least I can consider the money lost a part of my financial education
edit: maybe i should try to recover my losses with satoshi dice?
Again: you want to "recover" your losses with a rigged game, created for you to always lose if you play long enough?
As a general advice: stop thinking you will make money quickly and easily. That's not happening, that's a delusion - are you delusional? Don't listen to the stories of those that say that had huge wins with speculative investments, gambling and whatnot, because half of them are hugely exaggerating (typical of delusional behaviour), and the other half just omit the huge losses they incurred in previous operations/gambles.
And goes without saying that losers, which are more than winners, simply do not like to tell their experience.
The only way to make real money that it won't go away as fast as it came is to work your ass off. Stick that into your mind bro, and stop gambling or go broke.
You should ask yourself why you decided to sell. You say you bought some of them at 2$. That indicates you have been here for a while, at least longer than I have.
Did you somehow stop believing in the future of Bitcoin? Was it just a panic atac? Try to pinpoint the feelings that triggered your decision and make a mental note of them, and be alert next time those thoughts come into your brain.

I can guarantee you will miss more money if you keep gambling.
Forget about gambling - it's stupid and pointless. There's no point in it - it's just sheer luck, and it is never "fair", because the house has an edge, which mean that they always win.
Look at it this way: you have to be very dumb to risk your money on a game that you will always lose, if you play it long enough. Are you so dumb? Are you really SO DUMB?
Ask to you that question, and act accordingly.

Losing money can suck. I had about 750 BTC at one point. Bitcoinica helped me to dwindle that down to about 200.
But that 750 BTC cost me $10k. That 200 I have left is worth over $20k.
Keep any BTC you still have.
I usually do not tell people about this because I do not want other people to compete against me making money but...
Go to BitFinex, move 20-30 BTC over there. Go to Lending, click the BTC tab.
Lend your BTC at a variable rate. You will not get rich, but you will be holding on to bitcoins which will gain in value. And you will slowly increase your bitcoin holdings. I have had about 25 BTC in there for the past three weeks. I have only made .15 over that time but that is more than I would have made if it was in my cold storage.
However, it is a new company in a foreign country running the same software that ended up making a lot of people lose money. The risk involved is that the company will disappear and your bitcoins with it. That is why I only have 25 in there and not 200.
Buy a couple of bitcoins. In a year they will be worth more than your 20 BTC you lost.

Oh, I am sorry. I lost some money in gambling too (a bit more than I expected to loose, but not too much).
Maybe you could become a trader? It has much in common with gambling and could help you to develop your capital management skills.
Define your set of rules of how you deal with your capital (e. g. don't put all your eggs in one basket, don't risk more than 2% of your capital at a time, etc).
Create a spreadsheet where you track your actions and assets, buy pass-through to SatoshiDice (at least you'll get some of your lost coins back as dividends).
Evaluate your portfolio daily, log your mistakes and achievements.

Give all your money to your girlfriend
Bad idea, I did this once and she spent it all!
Give all your money to your girlfriend
Use some ECC math and send coins to ( your public key * private key only known by trusted guy )
When you want to use your coins, multiply both private keys and it gives the final private key to use

Here, A is OP and B is trusted guy

When you want to use your coins, multiply both private keys and it gives the final private key to use
How to
Here, A is OP and B is trusted guy
Sending:
- A sends his public key(Apk) to B
- B computes Apk * Bpvk (Bpvk is a private key) and the result is the vault public key
- B computes the corresponding address and makes it public
- A sends coins to that address
Redeeming:
- B sends Bpvk to A (can be done securely: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/jeeq-ecdsa-encryption-196378)
- A computes Apvk * Bpvk (Apvk is the private key corresponding to Apk) and the results is the vault private key: Vpvk
- A imports Vpvk in a wallet
- A uses his coins
DON'T USE ONLINE WALLETS, Why don't this community learn that this is a bad idea!
I guess my assumption was we were talking about a small number of coins. But I agree, online wallets are less secure and should be used with caution.
