I understand what you are going through, but know that behind every destructive habit, there is a spirit fanning and keeping the embers glowing. An habit can start naturally, but when it goes to the extreme, know that something has perched to keep you going. This is enough pill for you; can't recommend anything again after this: 1 Timothy 6-10: 6Now godliness with contentment is great gain. 7For we brought nothing into this world, [d]and it is certain we can carry nothing out. 8And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content. 9But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. 10For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows. (NKJV) Let's look at the Amplified version: 6But godliness actually is a source of great gain when accompanied by contentment [that contentment which comes from a sense of inner confidence based on the sufficiency of God]. 7For we have brought nothing into the world, so [it is clear that] we cannot take anything out of it, either. 8But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. 9But those who [are not financially ethical and] crave to get rich [with a compulsive, greedy longing for wealth] fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction [leading to personal misery]. 10For the love of money [that is, the greedy desire for it and the willingness to gain it unethically] is a root of all sorts of evil, and some by longing for it have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves [through and through] with many sorrows. Read these verses morning and night as your medicine. It's to heal your mind. Accompany it with fasting and prayer, morning and night. That the Lord should deliver you from the spirit of gambling. He will show you a way out. Lastly, confess your struggles to a woman (not man) that you trust and you are accountable to. Shine light on that deed and expose it. The Lord help you!

Austinboy: In addition to the advices given, get a piggy bank. Each time you have the urge to go to the bet store, remove that money from your account and put it in the piggy... after two months, come and thank me. Better still, get new friends and get something to keep you really busy like learning a hand work... the fact that you're free, gives you room to want to head to the bet shop. |

The goodnews is that there's hope for you because I'm a living testimony. 13th of March will make it 2 years I quit everything that has to do with gambling and in that time I've not stepped my foot in gambling house. I've heard pple say they've won,my manager where I work plays bet and wins sometimes but I don't get tempted at all because i see it as rubbish and I know what I went through and how God delivered me. If you see this please contact me,I can help you. 2 Likes |

Austinboy: Op I was in the same train with you. The best way to avoid gambling is not allowing any money to stay in your account. Immediately any money comes to your account transfer the money to either your mum account or a close friend who you trust so much. Before that explain to the person the reason why you are transferring the money to his/her account so he can help you save the money. |

I understand how u feel. I'm also finding it difficult to quit even after uninstalling the betting apps. I will still find myself installing it back, play game, loose and regret again. Its always look as if something is pushing someone to play, if u don't, u won't feel okay until u play. Though I have and will never play virtual by God's grace, and mine will never get to the stage of entering into debt. God forbid! May God help us to be addicted to things that will make us and not break us. Amen 1 Like |

Virtual is worse than coronavirus. It's d worst disease u can ever think of. They made it easily accessible, wake up midnight play and make money (wreck). Deposit and withdrawal is very easy. The system is designed to appeal to d eye. It makes u feel u can make 1million in 1 day but it's a fantasy. You'll see a big team beating all big teams, only to lose to a very small team... Virtual no be ur mate. If u don't gerrit, don't go there 3 Likes |

Austinboy: Read this carefully. This is the origin of your problem This is you complaining We know that the law is spiritual, but I am not. I am so human. Sin rules me as if I were its slave. I don’t understand why I act the way I do. I don’t do the good I want to do, and I do the evil I hate. And if I don’t want to do what I do, that means I agree that the law is good. But I am not really the one doing the evil. It is sin living in me that does it. Yes, I know that nothing good lives in me—I mean nothing good lives in the part of me that is not spiritual. I want to do what is good, but I don’t do it. I don’t do the good that I want to do. I do the evil that I don’t want to do. So if I do what I don’t want to do, then I am not really the one doing it. It is the sin living in me that does it. So I have learned this rule: When I want to do good, evil is there with me. In my mind I am happy with God’s law. But I see another law working in my body. That law makes war against the law that my mind accepts. That other law working in my body is the law of sin, and that law makes me its prisoner. What a miserable person I am! Who will save me from this body that brings me death? I thank God for his salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord! So in my mind I am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful self I am a slave to the law of sin. Romans 7:14-25 This is God's solution for you. So I tell you, live the way the Spirit leads you. Then you will not do the evil things your sinful self wants. The sinful self wants what is against the Spirit, and the Spirit wants what is against the sinful self. They are always fighting against each other, so that you don’t do what you really want to do. But if you let the Spirit lead you, you are not under law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified their sinful self. They have given up their old selfish feelings and the evil things they wanted to do. We get our new life from the Spirit, so we should follow the Spirit. Galatians 5:16-18, 24-25 |

Austinboy: The problem is NOT ONLY in those bet houses but also within you. You have to learn to be conscious of the voice of the holy spirit because he gives you impression within your heart ,and then surrender and move your body forwards where he direct you. You have to totally do away with your phone. Most of all you need deliverance because it is a demon that is now manipulating your will. You can never stop even if you want to You will only stop when you chose to suffer in the flesh ,and yield to the voice that speaks to you within your heart. When I say you must suffer in the flesh I don't mean to say that you should go and hurt yourself NO ! I mean you must Lose everything that gives occasion and opportunity for that to take place. Lose your phone by maybe selling it . Lose your friends that inspires you to bet. Lose going to that location (bet house). Then give yourself to the word of God Especially the book of Romans chapter 5,6 ,7and 8 and also Galatians chapter 5 Read from verse 1 to the end everyday . Pray a least 3 hours everyday.(including tongues) But first of all repent ,confess your sins to God,and rededicate your life to him . Please don't commit suicide you will only endanger your soul for eternity. Now for self delivarance: Place your hand on your head and command the spirit of betting,gambling,and debt to come out if you in Jesus name . Say it with faith without fear or doubt and it will happen . Keep saying it till there is a reaction within your body ,and then thank God for delivering you. But if you are not a Christan then I will advice you to give you life to Christ today by confessing these words. Dear Jesus today I confess you as my personal lord and savior ,I believe that you died for me and rose again ,I believe that you are the son of God, Clean my name from the book of death ,and write my name in the book if life . Thank you for saving me . Congratulations. 2 Likes |

Jeez, have once been in your shoe in the past but don't bet as you do. I don't think I've loose a million naira all the years I played bet then. My own candid advice for you are; 1. Get a serious girlfriend potentially turn fiance and always share your minds with her 2. Try invest in valuables anytime you see money i.e crypto, forex, nfts. I can take you up on this if you will be interested. 3. When you are making money from realistic sources, you will forget about betting. Aswear All mentioned above are just my personal advice to you.

Rule number one ,:never try to win back the money you've lost Rule number two- whenever you repay a loan ,delete the app and never go back Rule number three - delete every gambling related app on your phone even the score checking app, or avoid all places that they gamble. Rule number 4: Delete all friends contact that only engage you on gambling, exist/unfollow every group in social media relating to gambling Rule 5: Put money to use as soon as you get it, use the saving app e.g. piggy vest that can force you to lock down funds for period and u can't access it. Once u get money lock it down immediately. Rule 6: Engage in other time consuming activities e.g.learning a skill ,going to the gym etc. Rule 7: Quiting is always very difficult to exist but if you can avoid gambling for 90days, you'd form a good habit ,so set a daily reminder and tracker everyday u don't bet, give yourself a pass and treath. |

I am suffering the same thing here but I thank God for taking away the addictive part of it from me. When you hear that saying "one step forward two steps backwards " that's what gambling can do to your progress in life. I also had the thought of committing suicide due to how I had damaged myself. When I see the achievement of my neighbour, friends or colleagues from their little earnings, I feel so bitter especially when I know very well that I make more money than them on a monthly basis. As a matter of fact nobody can advise you, na you go find a good reason to stop. May God show you the reason. If you want to recover all your money back stop gambling. Na when you stop you start to de win.. Very hardworking talented or skilled person are likely suffering from one addiction or another, dont allow the devil to manipulate you, you were actually born to be rich and famous and be a blessing to others but the devil knows how to constrain your efforts by taking all thru betting. God help you. 2 Likes |
