Did you cut ties with the person that made you try gambling?

Anyone here na nag-start din magsugal dahil na-engganyo ng family/friends/partner and nagsusugal pa rin sila? Did you cut ties with them?

I was encouraged by my cousins (closest I have to siblings). They lost a few millions to casinos before, hit rock bottom, nag-sober for a few years and since last year went back to online gambling.

They now gamble low amounts kasi hindi na sila naka-bounce bank financially after the prior losses and until now nagbabayad pa rin ng mga utang.

They encouraged me to try it kasi pwede naman daw pa-1k 1k lang ang cash-in. Kaso, I have a high-paying job so lumaki ang taya ko.

They don't know about my losses yet and mga utang ko sa credit cards (umabot na ng 2M). I don't know what they will think when they find out and if it would make sense to them that we don't hang out for a while because na-t-trigger ako even by just hearing them talk about gambling.

I kinda have an out... I can say na-busy sa work and sa gym but I know they will know it's not the real reason. I want to climb out of this hole I dug myself into pero I don't know how to do it around them. Any advice? :(

Relapse

Ano kayang pwedeng gawin if self-aware ka naman sa dapat mong gawin pero hinahabol mo na yung feeling ng panalo? :(

Nagrelapse ako this month, nung una natatalo, then nagsunud-sunod yung panalo ko. From 400k EF, naging 1.7m yung EF ko.

Pero syempre di ako tumigil, and ngayon 800k na lang siya. It's not really savings dahil may mga utang ako sa credit cards from previous gambling tilts.

Hindi ko alam, parang manhid na ako. Pag nananalo, may brief moment of relief/dopamine hit pero after that parang wala lang. Any advice? :(
