Hello
I’m Andrew and I’m 42. I don’t know where to start. I have been losing money online for years and today lost a lot. A huge amount.
I am seeking help and want to stop this. I cannot afford to lose another penny. I can’t afford to survive like this.
I’m going to check in here every time I want to gamble. Instead of going to gamble I will write a diary entry detailing my mood and making a note of how much I thought I was about to deposit.
My wife deserves better. We’re trying to start a family. I have to come to terms with this mess and become a responsible man.
How can I make this work? I’ve given up before but it didn’t last long...
This is day 1 (again).............
Thanks for all the suppport you’re able to give, if you can. I’m so disappointed with myself...
Andrew.
You just have to stop go cold Turkey. no more gambling that's the best advice i can give you best wishes
Thanks. I registered with Gamstop too and had a load of emails today from companies that I can’t even remember registering with...I feel good about myself today and am restructuring my finances. I’m determined to save the money I would have gambled and instead view that as winnings that I can rely on and withdraw how and when I want...incidentally, what is it with the long periods where you can reverse a withdrawal? My god that’s dangerous and ruined me at times. Should be made unlawful. Thanks for advice and support...
