Taking the first step to change can be the most difficult step.
Hello
Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts.
Noticing and acknowledging that gambling has become harmful can be really difficult. It is easy to get caught up in a cycle with gambling and sometimes it can be hard to recognise the negative impacts. Taking that first step of change takes a lot of courage but any steps can add up to really significant changes. This then helps with the motivation to keep going with the progress and break the cycle.
I hope you can continue to use our forums to share any experiences you have around gambling recovery.
All the best,
Claire
