I want to APOLOGIZE to the Covers board

Truth of the matter is that I suffer with anxiety and depression, it’s hereditary.

I clearly have a sports gambling problem and sometimes my emotions get the best of me. 

get help bro 

 you'll be all right, stay positive 

I hope you can get some relief, that’s not easy to deal with 

I can relate.

@ActionMagnet

  Try not watching the game...I don't even watch games anymore.....just check the scoreboards/scoring apps...

All good bro...

This thing we do isn't for thevfaunt of heart

I guess you guys don’t bet with confidence? 

Not throwing shade. I do my own research and stick to my own plan. When the game begins I don’t stress because everything else is no longer in my control (picking the O/U, Spread, Props ETC.) this type of thinking helped me out big time. It’s all mental at the end of the day.

no need to apologize b/c we are all the same. Covers is the one who needs to apologize b/c they own the sports books that are listed on the website and take all our money when we lose. 

I don't know what this is about but you're ok in my book. Acknowledging your mental afflictions is huge. There is no replacement for professional help but the even just acknowledging it is a start.

We all have our days brother.

My advice for the depression is to excercise, whether is walking, riding a bike or lifting weights. Try to stay active is what im trying to say and for the gambling addiction, bet less...you do not need to bet every game and in return you will have more chances to win. The less you bet the better odds you have to beat the books. 

what happened?

@davemsh

 I use to think i had to watch every second of every game I bet on.

@ActionMagnet

 Everyone reacts different. Its almost like being depressed a day or two after losing a Monday night football game or something. 

Hang in there Action

Life is a Rollercoaster and sometimes we all need help .

Count your blessings and talk to a friend, loved one if you have them.

Don't despair...it does get better.

I've battled Osteomyleitis for 1.5 years and it's been life-altering.

this feels like one of those gambling anonymous meetings.

thank you for sharing 

@ActionMagnet you be ok cya tomorrow mah man!

Exercise. Eat well. Sleep well. Get out in the sun. Find a hobby. Establish meaningful relationships.

Yeah I like most of us I would think,are sports fans too and like to watch the game but having money on it gets aggravating and frustrating so better to not watch too much!!

Take a deep breath brother and take care of yourself. Gambling is a challenge alone, let alone being human and having deep emotions that you are dealing with. Mental health is real. We all struggle and thinking of you brother. Take care. 

I just drink water and smoke cigarettes 

I like to cap, think I'm smarter than everyone else, submit cash wagers, get shit faced drunk, check scores occasionally, never watch the games, react to my fate. go to sleep. Repeat the next day, 

I don't watch any games I bet unless they are blowouts in my favor..

That's 99% of the reason I don't wager on games my teams are in..BILLS and JAYS

Been like this for 30 years after I put my foot thru a TV during halftime after which my team came back to cover...lololol

Plus...the stress of Bball games can kill you
