Have you ever felt like a gambling addict? and how much did you lose in gambling?

Yeah, I was a gambling addict way back. Now I have quit gambling and living a normal life. I have lost a lot but I don't want to disclose the numbers. All I can say is it's a 4-digit number. When you live alone and there's no one to tell you what's wrong and what's right, you will never realize that you have become a gambling addict until it's too late. This is exactly what happened to me. I was living alone and I started gambling on online platforms and I didn't even realize that I had already become an addict.

It was a hard journey to come back to my normal life. But many people have helped me on this journey. Now I can proudly say that I am not an addict anymore. If anyone is on the verge of becoming an addict and feels like they need to stop it, go out there and talk to your loved ones. That's the best therapy. It will be hard if you try to do it on your own.

I don't know what 4 digits you mean, whether in what currency. If you count it in USD, that's quite a lot of money.
However, from a glance I see what you are trying to convey about a little of your experience, that it seems that at that time you were really in a quite difficult situation. And in this position, most people are not aware that they have been addicted to gambling, and they only realize it when they have run out of balance for gambling. But luckily you were able to get out of that situation, because most people are not able to get out of a situation like that.

And starting from an incident that you have experienced, this is enough to be a warning for me to be more careful when gambling.

But I doubt that if I had a gambling addiction, I would go and talk to the people I love. I think that's not the best solution, because the people we love don't necessarily love us and care about the events we experience. And more precisely, we have to come to people who clearly love us, because people who love us will definitely care about us and will not leave us alone to face quite serious problems.
However, if we don't have someone who loves us and cares enough about us, then be careful and love ourselves, don't let us continue to be in a bad condition and down.
