Gambling addiction

Hi all, I like most of you have/have had a gambling addiction. It all started about 11 months ago. I was working away and bored out my head so I decided to deposit £20 on the slot machines. Over the space of two nights I had deposited approx £150 and won a substantial amount! I was extatic I had never really seen money like that before. If I knew what I knew now I never would of put that £20 on regardless of the win because of course the majority of my winnings went straight back on the slot machines. Ever since then I have been gambling hundreds of pounds each night/month. I have tried everything to stop I got rid of my i phone to buy an android so I could install gam ban which I would highly recommend! It stops you from going on ANY gambling sites and you cannot remove this from your phone or tablet. This was great but unfortunately my parents have phones so I would just take theirs for a few hours to gamble. I have self excluded from SO many sites I really have lost count but as you all know there is always another site somewhere. I brought myself a safe so when I got paid I would remove all my money from my bank account apart from bills but with how easy it is now to transfer money between accounts I would always find a way to gamble. Like every gambler I always say this is my last deposit or my last spin. It never is and I just sit there chasing my losses I don't even let the reels spin anymore I put everything I play on turbo mode because I dont care about the game all I care about is winning back what I've lost. I really hit rock bottom this weekend I got paid over £1,600 Thursday and by Saturday morning it had gone every single penny of it. I worked 200 hours for that money and within about 5 hours the lot was gone!! I then leant some money from my partner who was unaware of my addiction and that money was also gone by Saturday afternoon. I felt sick to my stomach I was so angry upset and dissapointed. And what's even worse is on Friday night i had won some money back but of course it sat in my pending so bit by bit I gambled it till every penny had gone. I then realised how screwed I was I had no money to pay for or run my car no money for rent no money for food I had absolutely nothing. I then decided it was time to tell my partner she was very upset and dissapointed but at the same time understanding and supportive. I was so scared to tell her but I'm so glad I have. She has agreed to pay my bills for me and petrol money etc for the month but she will be doing this for me and not trusting me with the money. She will also be taking control over my finances for the next few months till I get myself sorted and I'm so glad and thankful. I would recommend everyone to tell their loved one/s I know how ashamed and embarrased you can feel but trust me once it's done it's just a massive weight off your shoulders... I have gambled away anything between 12 and 15 grand in the last year maybe more which might not be a lot to some people but it is for me. Now I've hit rock bottom and my partners aware of my gambling probkem I'm hoping that will be enough for me to stop. It has to be or I'll lose everything. Thanks for reading sorry it's so long.
