Hi I’m a new member just like to introduce myself. I’ve been gambling for around 20 years mostly fruit machines in the beginning now it’s getting worse with playing roulette machines. I feel I,m in a really dark place I really want to stop but I feel powerless. The urge to gamble is overwhelming and consumes my life.

Hi Shane, I'm new to this forum too, how are you doing, have you started any steps yet?
I'm now the other side of the admission I was a compulsive gambler, with 52days bet free telling my partner, coming to terms eith my reality, arrangements with all my debtors, self ban and other prevention methods, and I've begun GA meetings. If there is anything I can help you with just shout me
Thank you for the comments I went to my first G.A meeting tonight I found it really helpful
