    Yea that def true. Everyone way different when it comes to dopamine and how they can or can’t handle it.

    Hopefully otters can find the same enjoyment without risking so much!

    For myself capping the games is the part I enjoy much more so than the “action” once games have started so it not a big deal to me.

    For myself the relapse binges are way worse if I go totally without. Hell, even fukkin milk if I don’t drink any for a week or more then when I get it I pound the shit out of it!! Lol.

    It so much worse for me if I cut completely out. Long as I give myself some taste here and there all is well. I go without for a month and all hell gonna breaks loose!! Lol

    The idea is for me to get back to having a true value of money and turn sports betting back into a hobby.

    I'm not trying to make money just pick games from now on

    If my wife put me on an allowance I’d divorce her. Otters, you’ll be back posting big juice lines and feeling the rush of picking free $$$ winners in no time.

    Otters reminds me of Ed Norton’s.character in Rounders. He needs a Matt Damon to bail his ass out tho

    Yeah Banker, I hear ya. It’s tough. I need a taste of the things I love or I’ll lose my mind. It’s exactly what happened to me in August. I hadn’t touched hard drugs since I moved away from NY. I met some people, had money saved up, and I let loose. It was from all the built up desire to use that made me go so hard. Now tonight, I’m having a few drinks and smoking some crack. Yeah, yeah. But, this night will keep me from going insane with no release and I’ll be fine for another month without anything. Better than going on a huge binge and blowing it all.

    Good call Otters having your wife control the money if you cannot. Hopefully you do well with betpoint bets and score some big wins there.

    Don't hassle the little things in life and remember how much your wife cares for you..
    Make her smile your "all in" investment..
    You got this..
