hi all
I've never used a forum before and hoping for some advice. I've read through some threads and although I've just got in drastic debt I have taking a loan out to help with getting myself sorted.

2 years ago I was introduced to lay betting. it was good at first but o was warned dont do the slots. curiosity got the better of me and a few little wins made it irresistible.
I'm now at a point where I'm finding it hard to stop. I use my overdraft to play them even though I know it gets taking out my next wage each month making me shorter on money till I hit crisis....like now!
I've excluded myself from as much as I can. I tried a software on my phone that was useless, I've changed my bank and just feel like I'm never getting a hold on it.
I can go for a week being really good and no gambling then I get bored and put 20 on. I lose that bet another 20. when I'm playing I feel relaxed then I lose and the c**P anxiety kicks in. I'm hoping for some advice or support I just needed to get this off my chest.
thanks for reading
