We run the National Gambling Helpline, and if you are based in the UK you can call our freephone number 0808 8020 133 anytime to discuss support options.

Hi there,
If you are indeed within the UK, there are several steps I would recommend to start off.
Firstly, install Gamblock and/or Gamban on your phone/tablet/PC. These will block 99% of gamblings sites.
Register with Gamstop, so you cannot use any online gambling site within the UK.
Thereafter, block yourself from all UK land-based casinos, via SENSE (if I'm not mistaken).
Contact MOSES to self-exclude from as many bookmakers as you wish.
Self-exclude from arcades etc.
You've made the most important step, in my opinion, by acknowledging a problem and coming on this site.
Make a point of creating a diary on here and utilising the chat rooms daily.
Cheers
