Hi George

You have made a good step coming here, what's been going on mate I guess you will have a lot on your mind?

Hi Matt.

I think I'm finally ready to kick the gambling in for good. I didn't realise there was so many people suffering with the same addiction! It's cost me everything that was important to me so after hitting rock bottom, I'm determined to bounce back and have a life again. Has GA worked for you?

Hi mate,

You sound just like I did except I had to hit rock bottom after rock bottom untill I finally reached out to GA I was absolutely hopeless every thought and penny was onto gambling,
All you need at GA is a willingness to stop gambling and you will get there,
Sorry if I sound like I'm overselling but it saved mine and many others life's it's proven,
Are things difficult with your partner? Family just now I guess?
Try do your best to talk it through with someone you trust, doesn't matter how little just get some of it off your chest!
You can do this mate the days will turn to weeks before you know it,

Matt
