Hi everyone wanna share one of my friend's story.. he is jr dev and suddenly became heavily involved in skin betting, he is influenced by streamers, after witnessing streamers incredible wins, my friend just wanna try a shoot.. He began by throwing $300 worth of CS:GO skins for fun however things quickly got out of hand. He started selling gear, chasing wins & losing several thousand dollars in virtual loot. He has completely stopped using gambling websites however he is too ashamed of his habit to admit to anyone that he is losing.
Have any of you managed to escape the tidal wave of skin betting? After the virtual casino spiral, how did you regain your boundaries, trust & even your attitude?
If you say he is now ashamed of himself and can't really open up to anyone, then it is time family and friends step in and help him see a professional therapist that will give him solution to his problems. Professional help is all he needs to regain his boundaries.
To those who find it strange that one can bet on skin and even get addicted to skin betting, they should know that they can bet on anything and addiction is not selective. It can happen as long as you derive some kind of interest in that particular thing or activity.
