Default UB Blackjack is Ruining Me

I can't say I've been doing any good in poker lately, tho I am still up a good amount for the year. My new problem is blackjack. Last year, I tilted off 8k of my then 20k br to UB BJ. I haven't played it since but in the last 3 days, I dropped 25k in it and am damn near busto on UB. It's such a severe mental strain and I really don't know how to get past this, as I haven't done well in a tournament in over a month now and I've been breaking even in cash games, at best. It's not only a strain on my bankroll, it's a strain on me mentally. What do I do?

Quit all table games now. Take a break from poker too. If you have to, withdraw everything

you're not the only one

Remind yourself that you're not playing with real odds. That should be enough to stop.
