Good morning all,

I am new here so just wanted to introduce myself. I have struggled with gambling over last 13 months. I went through savings I had and now I find myself around £20,000 in debt. I feel such a fool and I am disgusted at the money I have wasted. I had a heavy loss yesterday and that was the final straw. I am trying to keep active going to gym to try and reduce my urges. 

 

I just feel like I have a mountain to climb. I can afford payments at the moment however I have no savings now as my emergency fund I used to gamble and lost it all. 

I registered with GameStop and this has been great with stopping online temptations. My problem has been physically going into the bookies as I have one about 5 minute walk away. 

Just really want this sickness feeling to go away and if family knew they would be furious with me. I do plan to tell them but I want to get this addiction under control first and get my level of debt down so I feel a bit better at least.
