Through Graal, I got a gambling problem. Not only did I waste a lot of my money, I began to gamble it in useless repetitions. Sometimes I won, sometimes I lost. But when I won, I received a high - it only lasted a few frames, but it was so great. When I lost, I felt on a low. But those rare highs made it all worthwhile. RPS was my life.

Graal also gave me a violence problem. I was killing, for fun. I loved watching my victims twirl to the ground.

I lost my money, my sleep. Graal ruined my life.

But that was over a year ago now. Problem gambling is sad - it ruins lives, friendships, and communities. It is not okay.

But, it is okay, to ask for help.

And that is what I did.

If you, or anyone you know, has a problem with gambling, reach out to them. Call the Problem Gambling Foundation of New Zealand.

With my violence problem, I stopped early. I managed to control myself. Just look at my stats - I turned myself from a violent monster into a little angel. And you can too.
