Does anyone else feel like a little lab rat, it's the best way I have found to describe what I feel like playing online slots. Like a little lad rat pushing buttons for flashing lights. The people is I don't want to stop, I do but I just want it to be my choice when to stop no blank out and keep clicking. I give myself mental withdrawal amounts yet as soon as I hit them it goes up and up until all im doing waiting to loose. I think the strangest thing is is how unspoken about gaming is, I was at work today and playing slot on my phone the whole time hoping my manager wouldn't catch me yet I think about how many other people are the same yet it's not noticeable to people. I live in a little town called saffron walden and i think there must be hundards of people just like me living no more than a few doors away. It's such a sad thing but the saddest part of it is that I'm writing this only because I've just lost all my money.
Hello there,
I am sorry to hear that you feel like a lab rat stuck in from of your screen playing slots even when you are supposed to be working. It is possible that you have developed a gambling addiction as you have no control over when you stop.
You may find it helpful to speak to an advisor at GamCare. You can call or chat online. The lines are open from 8am until midnight.
Best wishes,
