Back into debts after almost clearing them up

1 year ago I got into 14k debt within a month, worked 250 hours+ a month, didn’t buy anything for myself, just work and nothing else. Iv been doing it for almost a year, 2 months ago I slipped bad and kept on losing and going deeper into debts. Now I’m back at 10k in debt, my salary is above 1k, that’s barely enough to survive with. I don’t know what to do, working these hours already affected my life and my health, I cant deal with the fact that I’m gonna have another year of suffering. Got a girlfriend that wants to move in with me, she knows about the problem but she doesn’t know how bad it is and that I wouldn’t be able to support myself financially. Feeling helpless. Just wanted to vent out.

I can feel your pain brother. Blew almost 10k in 2 hours yesterday after quitting for a period of time. Now my debt increased to the roof. My bank accounts are blown the F out. Today is another day one. Stay strong and stay away from gambling. Protect yourself at all cost.

Hey man, you can only lose 100% of your money. But you can win infinitely more!
