I have been gone for many years but I have been gambling. It all came to a head this week I lost £2000 in 2 sessions in the arcade
Welcome back to the Forum mallys,
We are glad that you have reached out for some peer support after your recent gambling recovery set-back. You are not alone if your gambling recovery journey has not been a ‘straight line’. You may wish to use the disappointment of this financial loss to spur you onto making changes to reduce your gambling harm in the future.
Our Helpline is available to you on 0808 8020 133 anytime that you need to talk to an empathetic person in detail or explore your support options. If you have not already and you are based in the UK you can complete a self-exclusion for arcades here: Self Exclusion - Bacta
Wishing you back ‘on track’
