Hello,
After reading a few of the other posts on here I thought it about time I joined this forum as I recognise that gambling isnt the answer to my problems. Although I recognise this, actually doing something about it is another thing!!
At 53 years old I feel like I have lost everything, my marriage, home, friends but I have also lost the real me.
This is not entirely due to gambling but it has played a big part and my problem now is that I am in a lot of debt and I adont seem able to convince myself that gambling to win it back isnt the answer.
When I am calm and feeling positive, I realise I have a good Job, live in a lovely area and have 2 great kids so I dont understand myself why I cant stop gambling.
Anyway I will leave it there for now, hope what I have written makes some sense and would welcome any comments.
Martin.
Sounds like your in a rut mate but your never too old to turn over a new leaf. I got caught up in gambling due to depression, its becomes an escape from all your problems but the only way to start getting your life back on track is to make a commitment to stop. and then put your will and determination into action.
