sometimes I wonder how things went wrong. An articulate and innocent-looking man like me, throwing my life away and there seems to be no way out. 22,500 naira put under my care for lesson fees (i manage as a tutor in a small school), has been squandered on bet9ja virtual. I could swear that I had stopped gambling till money came into my possession. At once, my tempo rose and I moved swiftly to meet death (bet9ja) to see if I could double the money to solve some problems.
Lost it all.

I wonder if I will be able to sleep tonight, knowing I would have to give account of the money, sooner than later. All staff rely on this money gathered. I don't even own a salary. More than half of my 9k salary is used to service loans/debt, if not I would have sought to pay back with deductions from salary. I am eloquent, learned and tactful when teaching but betting addiction just altered my future.


Gambling has spoilt my focus. Hmm. Is this how I will run and abandon this job in search of another?? Money is indeed the root of all evil. Maybe I should just stop working because it's like I am working 'for the devil'. Don't even have foodstuff or good clothes. why didn't I use the money for that, then I know spending people's money was worth it.

try and listen to lucky dubes song titled liquor slave.it would help you.

Man you complain too much.
If all man begin write him own problems, Nairaland go shut down. Pick up whatever is left of your life and move on. This pity game won't do you no good. I pray you find peace.

Meanwhile, you can consider this easy way out

[img]https://media1./images/6c5eea1bc6934baf358b1e367475fae9/tenor.gif?itemid=5575962[/img]

Stop keeping money since you are not mature enough to handle money, especially if such money belongs to people. If you like squander your salary on betting, after all if you waste your salary on betting and you no longer have transportation fare to pay to work, you will be sacked. You want to learn your lesson the hard way? Then be prepared for it. You aren't just a serious person.

God Bless The Dead

Wat do I say to my fellow brethren in bet chains.. Look for confidants to help kip u in line.. Ure no longer in charge of ur life if virtual has joined ur regular betting habits..

Your stories Here on nairaland has started looking like a hoax. Very fake story

If you have sense,you'd look for a confidant to enthrust your salary on.May be until you go mad.

ChildofDoom. Let me tell you the first necessary step for you.

1) actually you have done the first part. Which is recognise that this is a ruination of life.
So let's go to the second point.

2) Quit everything you are doing right now to cater for yourself. Which obviously include your work. Go to your parents, or any available family member that can feed you for sometime.

You don't have to do mouth revelation to them as the words might be missing from your mouth. Just tell him/her that you have a problem. Then show him many of the Nairaland posts you have made about this problem. Let them read the whole details themselves.

Stop relying on wiping out your guilt by merely posting here when you messed up and feeling guilty. What it only does is relief you of the guilt small. Then when everything gets back to normal, you are going to return to doing it all over.


Please do this. Go surrender to a relevant guardian. (Even if he is a younger relative. Stop taking care of yourself for sometime)

You don't understand addiction. It's a mental impediment.

The bright side is that it can be reversed

But they are not.

Let me tell you what just happened to him. He spent the money. He doesn't have way to pay back. He is in a depressing mood right and looking to deflect the current overwhelming feeling of guilt.

Whenever you see these posts, not because he is actively looking for help, but because he is feeling guilty (and compelled to breathe in support).

The worst thing will even happen now if he has data. Because he would watch porn this night, watch it early morning, and then miss work. Because he would be too weak to face the pressure. Then he would miss work Thursday and Friday too because missing Wednesday work has added to the stockpile of guilt.

Gambling is a serious addiction . You just try to overcome it . Reason these way if you don't have money nothing will make you go near it to gamble ,but once you have money your spirit comes up to go and play it . So , basically the money at hand is the spirit rekindles you to gamble. Just assume that there is no money on u . Just because you have won in the past does not guarantee more winnings. You will count lots of losses before you can win again.

Adverse consequences are just much

People around you won't value or respect you.

You will become a liability to people

You will sell anything at sight just to gamble

It makes one develop psychosis if not checked on time .
