Depressed after being scammed?

[Ja sa bong]

Have you been scammed in the past? How much money did they scam from you? There are people whom have been scammed of all their life's earning which is capable of making anyone depressed. I would be depressed if I lose all of my money to scammers. I have been scammed once, I couldn't sleep for days because of it.

I have not been scammed, but I had a friend who nearly took his life after he was scammed. It was not an easy period for him then, as he couldn't even focus on doing a lot of things that he used to do. Personally, I think there should be bigger punishments for those who are into internet fraud.

I have seen people fall into depression and live with it for the rest of their lives because they were scammed. Some had to lose their life savings to the scammer. A friend of mine lost all his savings he drew to pursue a visa to UK. He lost everything because he spent that money to get fake visa.

The first and only time I was really being scammed, I fell into depression and it took me weeks to recover. I had used a family contribution money of which I was the treasurer to invest in a scheme. And we couldn't reach the proponents of the scheme. I was depressed of how I would lose my trust among the people. But I came out after two weeks. I started working and repaid the money bit by bit.

I haven’t been scammed, but I understand why this could feel devastating. Losing trust, money, or security can shake anyone emotionally. It’s okay to feel upset, but don’t blame yourself, scammers exploit trust. Focus on recovery, learning, and protecting yourself moving forward. You’re not alone in this.
