Ever since I started trucking, I began playing more and more lottery, it used to be $5 a week on powerball, and now it's $5 a day, someday maybe more, and whenever I get through Virginia, Kentucky or Georgia, I would play a lot more Decades of Dollars because this game is only available in those states, and each game is $2 and the other day I spent $100 for 50 games, and I only started playing scratch off tickets recently, before that I only play powerball/megamillions, about 3 weeks ago I was in a TA doing my 34 hours reset, I play scratch off tickets, you know the one that you insert the bills in the machine and you press the button for tickets, at first I won some money then I keep on going, I have fantasies of hitting the top prize, those $20 ticket has million dollar prizes, I had like $50 in my wallet and I played and win some tied tickets and some $20 more than the prize of ticket itself, then kept on playing until I lost it all, then I go to the ATM($6 fee and I know it) and get $300 and lost it all, and these days I still play, but not as bad as that day, for example, a $20 here and there every other day on the scratch off, and at least $5 for either powerball or megamillions a day, do I have a problem? I mean I got money and that I'm not starving, I got this dream of hitting the jackpot one day if I kept on playing, or maybe I need some help?
Do I have a gambling problem?

well, if you're in to wasting money you could always just give me the cash and be on your way . I'll take $20 here and there for nothing.

I don't gamble at all and neither does anyone in my family. I've been raised to think it's a waste of money. But if you are at the point where you have to ask a trucking forum if you have a gambling problem, I'm going to assume the answer is yes.

Do you have a gambling problem? Hmm, yeeeah about that...

Ever dream of losing the lottery WAKE UP its called playing the lottery

Do a search on Gamblers Anonymous... that may be somehow informative and helpful. -
Can't believe someone would even post this kind of info. Maybe you should make the same post at the gamblers anonymous website.

I think he has realized he has a problem now he just needs to go get the help or just man up and say no.
