Hi, when someone comes here as your message implies they are desperate foe help. For one this site offers great advice, read a lot on here, seek help through netline, join the chat room at night. I have done all these things, but I never listened,I thought I new better, I thought I could control my gambling, after coming back here god knows how many times, I have decided to really embrace a decision not to gamble. The effort has to come from within, especially at a time when you are grieving about the money (partner/family) you have lost. This is a really difficult addication to beat, it's unseen (not visual) by all, and unless you have suffered no-one understands it. Hope this is a liitle bit of help.
I know how you feel almost at rock bottom here. Have you tried gamcare face to face Counciling it worked for a while for me
