Life as a 16 year old gambling addict

[LunkeyDunked]

I'm 16 too, not so much a gambling addict but I do get into it hard whenever I feel bored...

 

I've turned $20 into $500 sometimes and then proceeded to lose it all, which really sucks but I still feel like I've made more profit from it but only just. Would have been way more if after winning so much I didn't gamble a lot more and lose it.

I've lost large amounts but I enjoy the thrill so I keep coming back.

Sometimes u must lose something before u get wiser.

Gambled BTC once, lost 10$, never tried again.

I used to play alot of bovada poker before. I'm pretty sure I lost like 800$, but i loved the thrill when you won lol

havent put anything more than 10$ into gambling before, but I've made heaps of money from the small sums and then lost it all short after. The feeling after losing is instantly wanting to put more money in and it's honestly so hard to resist. Better off quitting instead of trying to make back the money you lost from gambling.

I'm sorry you have to go through that. I used to enjoy spending large amounts of money on FIFA Packs or even 2K, but what helps is reminding yourself that you're doing this for one year until the next game comes out. Setting a limit on your card/income can help you. Putting that time you use to gamble into making friends, going outside, joining sports leagues, etc.

 

Hope you figure it out
