      (seek help)
      I won 20k just before Christmas and lose it all.

      Now i am negative of 20k.

      -$20k.

      I would like to seek help.
      When i won i have nothing to do i keep going casino to bet money because i think the betting is excitement.
      After i lose,
      I have the terrible feeling of losing money. Now i feel like withdrawal of my investment (50k) for gambling.
      Logically speaking yes i know it wrong choice. I feel terrible now and i am depressed i feel like getting sucide if i lose more. Please help me . And also i have no girlfriend so life pretty pointless and meaningless to me.

      Hi Rapine,
      start with the basics.
      1: close all your accounts if you gamble online
      2: install web blocker.
      3: create a safety net to protect you if you relapsed… i.e. don’t keep extra money with you… losing 10$ is nothing compared to losing all your savings.
      4: there is no way to win with gambling, if you win you will continue gambling until you lose, if you lose you will continue gambling to win what you lost back… the only way out is to stop and to stop now.
      it is a journey towered recovery and it is started now, the above are the points where you can start from but this forum has a lot of real-life stories that you can learn from.
      hope you all the best in your recovery.

      P.S:
      there is a lot a GA meeting on zoom I recommend to attend GA meetings as well.

      Welcome to the forum Rapine and well done on taking a positive step towards addressing your problem.

      DarkEnergy has laid out some good initial steps you can take. I would also strongly suggest attending one of the New Members Practical Advice Group On Mondays at 21:00 (UK) and Thursday at 19:00(UK) that Dunc mentioned. I found these a great resource when I first came to the forum and was looking for some guidance on some steps I could take.
