Hi everyone, and thankyou for having me
I'm Jamie and I'm 33 been gambling on and off for about 10 years maybe longer,
there are times where I can stop for a few weeks sometimes even months but still manages to creep back in again at some point. Unsure what triggers it, just happens.
Getting myself into debt constantly and taking out numerous loans to fund this rediculous addiction either from companies or family members. I'm sick and tired of letting my wife down constantly and my son who is only 3 years old and luckily doesn't understand anything at the moment.
I really want to turn my life around for the better, I've got gamstop and gamban in place now so fingers crossed there won't be anymore online activity on my phone. Look forward to hearing from anyone
Hi well done for taking the first step I’m 2 weeks in and I’ve got to say it’s been emotional first day I felt great because I finally took back control of my life blocked all the sites I gamble on and came clean I felt great the reason I gamble is because I didn’t want to deal with things that I used gambling to block out stuff I couldn’t deal with but one day thought if I don’t deal with it it’s going to destroy me but I can honestly say I haven’t felt this great in a very long time I now feel I can deal with it because I want to move in with my life instead of looking back I’m looking forward good luck with your journey
