It’s now 32 days since I gambled.  I have had the hardest week of my life, my little beautiful mum passed away very suddenly, I have had a week of coroners, police, paramedics, funeral directors, I am shattered but it’s made me realise my gambling was an escape from my family pressures, poorly mum, s**t siblings and I will never gamble again.  I will keep posting on here.  My promise to my little mum is to get better and make myself a better life. Heartbroken but will recover from gamblingÂ
Hi ameliasgran. I'm so sorry for your loss of your precious mum. Take careÂ
Sorry for your loss @ameliasgran, it's always so difficult.Â
Cruse (www.cruse.org.uk 0808 808 1677) are a great source of bereavement support. Even if you don't feel like talking at the moment, they have a lot of information on the website.Â
It's good to read that you're holding firm with your recovery and are determined not to gamble.
Warmest regards,
