I have 40k total views and 3k /followers all were based on me gambling and giveaways
I am not sure if I even wanna stream anymore I'm always baited to stake. Right now I'm 1.4b in debt last month I was 1.8

I honestly can't take it anymore

Edit.

Get help how? Tell them I have a staking problem in a medieval java based game? Noone would believe me


As Tankist said; you have a gambling problem. Whether it's in a game or in real life, it's the exact same thing. They deal with this sort of thing all the time.

You either go or you don't. Your choice. They are professionals and will help you as long as you want to be helped.

If you can come on this forum and ask for help I'm sure you can make a phone call. It's not too difficult, just put your first foot forward and start the progress

^ gotta start somewhere man. admitting you have the issue was the first step. now take the next.

I have a sibling that has spent the last 12 years of his life with a drug addiction, he has gotten clean for a few months at a time but always reverted.
this most recent time getting clean was his own choice, he chose to go to detox, chose to do treatment, and all that.
he has been clean for i think 4 months now and I have legit never seen him more happy than he is now.

Cant ever let other force the change on you, it only works if you yourself are the one who wants to make the change :)

honestly this looks like a troll thread, the obvious thing to do is consult a gambling addiction hotline and go from there, instead he came here to troll us lol

I promise you it's not. I can post PayPal receipts and my stream. How do I consult a hotline for game gambling??

People I tell just dont consider it a real problem

Try to find alternatives to gambling.
Instead of going to duel arena do some different content that you haven’t learned.

This will be good for your account and stream as well as you can work on your gambling addiction.

Maybe try to start an Iron Man.

And at the end of the day if you can help irl. Addictions are an illness. They literally change your brains processes.

Staking. I got to 12b all on stream sold a little and lost the rest since then I've been constantly taking lends every month since I stream I get up to 100m lends dailey I spend nearly almost all my income on osrs gp to not only entertain but feed my fucking gambling addiction I now have because either you wanna admit it or not osrs gold holds IRL value. I did have substance abuse problems and have got sober but in a way this is equally as bad. Ironman is not an option I cant restart years of work. Just play the game doesn't work. Sigh I know you trolls are gonna eat this up but I can't talk about this any where else.


You have a legitimate gambling problem.

Go speak to your doctor and go to AA

good luck

also make sure you're not addicted to the crowd reaction and internet attention because of your viewer, like seyda says you can google your local gambling addiction hotline and if you can't find that you can consult a psychologist, there are pyschologists who specialise in internet addiction, I personally know one who's a Cambridge PHD.
