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.
Without a doubt overcoming an addiction alone is almost impossible as it would be too difficult to know where to begin with and h ow to proceed forward, however while the support of your family is key, it is important as well to not forget that if a person receives professional help as well they may recover even faster from their addiction, as those are people that are used to treat others with the very same symptoms and they know very well what you may be going through.
