Sorry to hear that Javman I am sure you are not the only one deep in red on AVZ. From a personal experience I know exactly how you are feeling I was at the same point as you at age 24. I Had a crazy gambling addiction that nearly ended my life so I know all to well that sick feeling you get when you wake up every day thinking what a failur/disappoint you are. I lost every dollar I had but for some stupid reason I truly believed I could turn it around but continued to lose more. However once I finally came clean with my girlfriend at the time I felt a huge relief and for the first time in years I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. It didn’t happen over night but the day I gave up gambling will always be the best thing I ever did & it saved my life. withing 2 weeks I was smiling again & I was slowly getting my life back on track of course some days you feel like crap but the good days definitely outweighd the bad. That was nearly 4 years ago I now live a life I always dreamed of having great career, house, wife & an amazing son. Javman only you can decide what is best for you but if it was me I would put AVZ in the bottom draw & step away from the stock market start focusing on working hard towards the future you deserve. It’s not easy but unfortunately it’s the only way I am confident after 2-4weeks of removing yourself from the asx & hotcopper you will feel a lot better. Who knows in 2-3years time Avz might have come good it is the stock market after all.
Wish you all the best mate apologies for long reply but if you want someone to chat to please measage me as I know all to well what you are currently going through & sometimes the best thing you can do is talk to someone.
