I lost ₱17k on gambling in 1 night
im gonna start from the very beginning. First I only played on roulettes till i found slots. At first, I lost 5k and eventually by continuing to play i lost almost my 7k newly deposited balance but fortunately i was able to win it back. Now I just wanted to play casually, but as i win, i got the 5k that i lost back by starting very small bets and increasing them as i win. I even had extra winnings and even bragged about it, that u recovered from my losses and still had extra money. Then last night came, I deposited only ₱200 and won ₱900 from it, i shouldve cashed out because this is where it went downhill. I used it all up on slots and i couldnt stop. so i deposited ₱500, and a few ₱1000, till it went to ₱3000, and lastly ₱5000. at this point i had lost the ₱10000, i still had ₱6000 left and at that point i won but still had ₱3000 lost. I shouldve cashed it out and cut my losses but i wanted to win it back. So used it all up and im left with nothing. Im still a student, unemployed, so for me, this was a-lot of money to me. Can someone give me tips or advices so i could quit gambling. What do you usually do when you get the urge? I’ve read that distractions, new hobbies, etc. helps but I can’t get my mind off it, its like im still hoping i could win it back.
