I have a never give up attitude fueling my lottery ticket buying, what can i do to stop?

See a therapist...: You should either see a competent therapist, some form of "gambling anonymous" specialist to help with the addictive nature of your purchasing; there may be an obsessive component to it as well; which a clinical psychologist/pshychiatrist can address. ;( or simply win big! and then be done with it. ). Good luck.

Get treatment: Gambling dependency is treatable, and there are many approaches. Gamblers anonymous is a free self-help program which uses a 12-step program similar to alcoholics anonymous. Many chemical dependency treatment programs and psychiatric hospitals have gambling treatment programs. In some cases there are underlying psychiatric issues, and medication treatment is available for many of these.

Not good: I know people who have lost every thing because of excessive lottery playing . The more u can abstain from this behavior the more successful u can be.
