Hi im kawthar 21 . I have ADHD autism Bipolar and BPD and I also have a couple other conditions aside from my gambling addiction but yeah.
Hello BeautifulButterflies,
Welcome to our Peer support Forum,
It sounds like you have a lot of mental health and other considerations that may be interacting with your gambling. You are not alone, and we are glad you have reached out. Hopefully you have some specific and professional support currently for your mental health diagnoses. Some people may find that they use gambling as a coping tool for their mental health difficulties, some people find that their gambling impacts directly on their mental health.
Perhaps you would like to describe some more detail about what types of gambling you do and how peers can make suggestions or supportive comments for you. Many Forum users start a diary in the diary section to track/record their thoughts, progress and recovery. In the meantime, you are welcome to talk to an Advisor on the Helpline 0808 8020 133 (or webchat). We also run an on-line Early Support Recovery Chatroom at 6pm on Mondays.
Best Wishes,
Louise
