I came here in early 2014 after building up a 23k debt from online slots (the devil) , after great advice and telling all my family what I had done I did not gamble again , I had to repay the debt and went to step change , however I never really fancied the doom and gloom that came with that so took matters into my own hands and started a part time business along side my full time job , the business took off from day one and I have never been out of work and the money is a real bonus ...the debt came down to about 16k and there is always money to buy things and pay bills , its really not a worry anymore however 70-90 hrs can be a kille!r ..the objective is to pay the debt off and make the part time job a full time one , its what I do and what I love to do so I feel very lucky in that sence ( I also appear to be quite good at it) ...........HOWEVER !!!...in may this year with things going well ..I had a flutter on the slots..then another ..same routine , ban myself after a bad loss and join another evil site , and so its gone on ..the debt is still the same but I've probably lost 10k ....so I'm back here , hopefully I will stay here , pay the debt by Xmas and give up the day job do do my dream of running my own company as I love doing it ...but the deamon has to be beaten and I thought I had , but I hadn't ..I should have never have stopped coming to this amazing website with all its wonderful people .........this is day one of not pressing spin !

Hi The gog!
Glad to see your back 🙂
self excluding was not enough for me, I just joined another and another! My only way was software on my devices blocking gaming sites, I also told my partner, who took over control of money and set the passwords for the software ! I knew self control was not enough to beat it, and it's the best thing I could have done! Hopefully you can tell someone you trust who can help you do this? It felt like an instant weight was lifted. I'm 17 days in of no spinning and couldn't be happier. It's not an easy road as you know, but totally doable!
Good luck 🙂
I'm far from glad to be back , but then again should never have stoped coming here ! Gamblock installed ...looms good ..and off to seek some hypnosis as I truly feel there is a reason why I/we all gamble and until I understand and deal with that I can't beat it by willpower ..coming here and blocking software ..for me I need to understand the root , the base , the trigger .....2 days , no spins , all is ok
Day 3
Gamblock on working well on my device (phone) feel great ..can't belive my relapce , the guilt has gone ..I'm so glad I came back here before it was to late ! ..ВЈ150 paid off the debt today and £300 tomorrow ...would have spent that in a few nights
