Josiah was only 19 when he first got pulled into online gambling after watching slot streamers and gambling clips online. What started as small bets quickly turned into a serious gambling addiction that cost him his business, car, apartment, friendships, rent money, and nearly his life before he turned 21. In this gambling addiction recovery podcast, Josiah shares how online slots, blackjack, drinking, chasing losses, and gambling with rent money led him into a destructive cycle. He opens up about losing thousands of dollars, isolating from friends, stealing rent money, hitting rock bottom, and finally deciding to quit gambling. This channel is dedicated to spreading awareness about gambling addiction and helping individuals better understand the risks of excessive gambling.
