ill disagree with that. he may not have noticed at first how the loss kept building and looked back and realized. the fact that he lost that much money isnt really the issue. the only way to see if you have a problem is to look at the rate youre losing money, realize it could and probably will get worse, and see if you can stop. if he had won that much money in that amount of time by pure gambling/luck it would still be meaningless. over the long run im up quite a bit, but i know even at the time when i was winning the most was when i had the strongest addiction and it didnt go away during losing periods.

Glad to hear that, M. -- The best decision for you, tho it must be difficult.

Don't feel badly for what could have been. Feel good for having done something positive about your problem.

We're proud of you, M. - Keep up the good work.

Absolutely great stuff M. You've taken the correct path. Don't be one of the ones who want to talk about the time or two they're up and not the dozens of times they are down.
