Disgusted with myself this morning aneixty back and wondering how i can get through the month. I had gone from March all the way to 30th December without gambling and one slip and well i am now £600 short in my account. I can't believe i did it again , i don't even know why i did it , i thought i could make easy money, like normal i make money first off then loose heavily.
I need to get back in my head to be stubborn again and tick the days and weeks off for being gambling free. I guess once an addict always an addict.Â
This post is really just to remind myself how a slip up makes me feel , i just hope i can keep away now without any stupid ideas of thinking i can make money.

Unfortunatley gambling is not a product which is designed to provide you with money its designed to take it and give it too the operators
Very dark and consuming habit that leads absolutely nowhereÂ
600 in a week is not the end of the world but obviousy you need to get yourself back under control
A shift in perception did it for meÂ

@suckedin I was doing so well i dont know what triggered it , a few months ago i would of had no interest i just need to get back to that again and repeat to myself it brings the worst out in me.

@pbuxton1982 exactly my situation i was gamble free for 2 year then something happened and i won to begin with i had no intention of gambling to begin with then i went and gambled it and lost and lost from £300 up to £750 down could have been alot worse as i had saved a few grand up till that point it been a month and im glad i havent made my situation worse as i knowi would have tried to make every penny back which is around 90k so even if i won large amount it wouldnt have been enough and i could have lost another 3.5k in the process
Hi I hope you can manage to stay away from it this time, it’s hard process and you will get there. I’ve recently got myself into lots of debt and left myself penniless for the month. I have finally told my sister and my girlfriend is in pieces because of this, here goes day one for me
Affected by gambling?
