HI there I'm new to this and I'm really needing some support with my gambling addiction it's taking over and I don't know how to stop.
Hi,
Read through as much as the forum as you can and call GamCare if you need, I have heard they are very helpful and can point you in the direction of GA etc.
Don't let this collosal waste of time, energy and mental strength ruin who you are! Good luck!
