Hi all,
im day 2 in and finally starting to tell my family the truth. I’ve been to the doctors and have been subscribed antidepressants and been advised to speak to talking space  Me and my partner still Aren’t talking well he’s not talking to me but I only have myself to blame for this…
Hey, is this because you told him about the gambling?? X
Congratulations on day 2 and seeking help . It’s tough for them that don’t gamble or have the addiction to understand that it is actually an addiction . Time I’m sure will heal your relationship . Keep busy and positive and post regularly for support. You’ll beat this.
@pbuxton1982 thank you I will get past this it’s not going to be easy, so glad I found this groupÂ
@horton89 hopefully he’ll come round soon. He’s probably just in shock / upset. I hope for your sake he supports you through this x
