I am 22 and have gambled since I could get served in the bookies (15/16)
I like betting on sport for fun and that is usually controled,although sometimes gets out of hand
Roulette machines, casino's, online casinos ect is where I loose most of my money
I would estimate to have lost over 1/4 of my income on Roulette machines over the past few years, some months all my pay some months maybe just a hundred or so
I am what you would call a impulse gambler, random mad bets and all or nothing bets
Recently I have left the Roulette machines alone and have stuck to affoardable sports bets.
Today though I went on my online betting account and lost a few hundred in the casine, As I had set a limit up I couldn't depiosit more to win this back so I joined up with another betting site which then had no limit set
After loosing the first few hundred I bet several hundred more to win it back and as you can guess I lost!
I have been good for a few months now and thought I had finally controled my gambling to a acceptable level
Clearly I havn't and have now hit a all time low, a few thousand in one night online is just not normal! especally with Christmas coming up and things planned
Any of this sound familiar to any of you?? I feel sick, stupid and embarrased
