It's finally time for me to walk away from gambling

Not because I lost everything or because the money stopped coming in, but because I genuinely don’t want to live this life anymore

The sponsorship money is great, and I have nothing but love for the team at Gamdom. They’ve treated me incredibly well, and I genuinely believe they have one of the best teams in the industry

I’ve wanted to quit for a while now, but walking away from six figures a week just to gamble was incredibly difficult

I grew up in a household where we sometimes struggled to put food on the table. The younger me couldn’t have even imagined making this kind of money, let alone voluntarily giving it up

But after spending so many years gambling, I think I’ve done more damage to myself than I ever wanted to admit

The reality is, I have a serious addiction. It doesn’t matter how much money I win or how much I’m given, I can never seem to keep any of it

I’m the type of person who will chase my losses to the ends of the earth. No amount of money will ever be enough

It’s an endless cycle of winning, losing, chasing, and never feeling satisfied. Even being handed free money to gamble has lost its appeal because I know exactly where it all ends up

I’ve also come to realize that I’m not proud of promoting something that has caused so much suffering in my own life

I can’t keep warning people about the dangers of gambling while continuing to be part of the very industry that encourages it

Somewhere along the way, I lost sight of the person I wanted to become

I have a lot of things to make peace with, a lot of sins to repent for, and a lot of work to do on myself

I want to experience happiness again without needing to risk money just to feel something. I want to find purpose in things that actually matter

I’ve spent so many years chasing money that I forgot what it feels like to live without chasing anything at all

I don’t expect to undo years of damage overnight, and I know walking away won’t be easy, but I owe it to myself to try

I just want my life back
