Please what kind of gambling ?

I just want to share my story to the world.
When I graduated, I was so blessed that I didn’t hurt for job, before I got one. I was working in the bank and was paid well, within a year I rented an apartment and got married, things was falling in place and I felt on top of the world before I started gambling, how I started it, I can’t explain. I lost all my resources and money within two years, I was sacked eventually and life became worst for me.
I got another job and promised my wife, family and kids to be a responsible father, but the urge for gambling keep coming, I couldn’t control the urge, I lost the job again.
My wife believed am a good man, but I see myself like am cursed and it is not that am getting money from the gambling.
I am sick and tired of life, I am a failure, sometimes I feel like committing suicide, I have brought shame to my family and kids.
Please I need help, am jobless, money can’t stay in my hand, I will go to gambling shop and lavish it.
Am I cursed, I need help

Go get a new job and disclose your monthly net pay to your wife.

Go to your bank and initiate a standing order that a specific amount of the net pay should go to your wife’s account. You may say 80-90% should hit your wife’s account . And your wife should not give you any money or lend you any money. Except the circumstances is very important and your wife will have to oversee that .

Set a limit for your betting activities.

The only fund you should have in your account should be the funds that will get you to work for the month and the limit amount you have set aside for your betting activities if you’re still interested in your betting activities .

Stop looking for sudden wealth ;when you look for sudden wealth you tend to lose more money and make you more poor than you imagine . Betting is based on luck most of the times. Betting is not work .

I would advice you to invest than looking for ways to get rich quick .

Shalom !!!

sad Even though I'm a born again Christian, I think you are suffering from spiritual attacks. We Christians tend to gamble more because our religion is very permissible and habours many bad acts unlike our Muslim brothers who are guided by the tenets of Islam. sad

A demon is involved. The demon is manipulating your mind. Your predicament is spiritual. Trust me, you can't help yourself. All you need do is to humble yourself the more by going on 3 days fasting and prayer and ask God to help and deliver you. Having done that, discipline yourself never to visit the gambling shop again..

Sorry for the loses..

Sin, investment, fun

If you don't see it as sin it will be hard for you to stop

KEEP ASKING URSELF SILLY QUESTIONS...! My Advice...Give Ur Life to Jesus Christ Now that, ur Eyes are Clear of ur IRRESPONSIBLE Behaviours that hurts. GAMBLING is a Sin...any Genuine Believer will accede to. Go for Deliverance in a Church like Chosen and God will Terminate that illicit Urge to Err. Surrender UR HEART TO THE SAVIOUR OF MANKIND NOW.

My advice is: Try as much as possible to convince yourself that you will never win. So, when the urge comes again, remind yourself that you will never win no matter what, if you play. Then divert the money somewhere else.

Another one is silly. Put rubber band on your hand, whenever... I mean WHENEVER the thought comes, even if you don't want to bet yet, just pull the rubber band inflict pain on your hand grin. With time(21 days at most) I assure you the thought won't come to you again

Common man! It had really ruined you. You have to stop it by all means. Nobody can help you stop it. Except you! Just take a look at what it had caused you to lose. From car to land. That's outrageous. Stop what's not helping you.

You are not that smart if you think pray works for you.

You are not that smart if you think the place called United States of America is "blessed". You obviously have not travelled out of Nigeria much.

You are not that smart if you think there are not many other people who pray more than America and remain unblessed (e.g. Shithole Nigeria).

You are not that smart if you think by me saying "useless black people", I meant "all black people".

I deduced all these powerful points from just 4 sentences you made. That should really make you review your brain.

Don't ever quote me again

You need to see a good therapist to help you combat the gambling issue. Anybody that tells you one religion or the other can help you with this is deceiving you or themselves or both. For your suicide thoughts and feeling of low esteem, it's the same thing. Please go see a therapist. Even a professional therapist can't help you with a single session, so i don't see how anyone can help you here when they are not trained for it or even know anything about you to be giving advice.

Hi man. U're nt alone in this, trust me. It's a problem u can effectively tackle using d right approach. In as much as gambling is seen as devil's workshop in this part of d world, it's one of d best ways to make cool money if carefully done. It should be treated as an investment & not just some opportunistic chances of making money. U need to stop it for now & thoroughly evaluate everything. In crypto world, there are very important tools that can help u make d appropriate decisions in d market so as to reduce risks to d bearest minimum. Same thing applies to gambling,trust me. There are very important tools that can help u make very bankable predictions & u'll hardly lose. Sure 1.50 odds everyday can make u a millionaire in just one month if u start with just #5k. Greed is d number one reason why many lose. Mail me for some hints: proffesor4luv@gmail.com

Your wife is not a good woman. When you were selling your land, car, etc , why didn't she stop you against selling your properties for gambling? She should have been very firm with you. There is no way she won't be aware during the period

If it's sports betting.

1. Stop funding your wallet
2. Pick games like you want to gamble
3. Screenshot your slip and save
4. Review the games won/lost after
5. Once again never fund your wallet

You get the same thrill as betting with actual money.
