Hi all,
i never thought I would end up on this site writing this but this needs to be the first step to conquer my gambling addiction,
im 25 and been gambling for 5,6 years now mostly on online slots things have been getting worse lately gambling more money using my girlfriends account and I'm finding pretty difficult I have a young daughter and want the best for her so really need help to overcome this slump that I'm in before things get really bad.
so today is day 1. Let's do this,
J.
Hi J, you have taken the first step like myself in seeking help to overcome your problem. I joined days ago with the intention of quitting completely but until today (its only early) have gambled little amounts. Nothing like i am used to but still havent managed to not gamble at all. Ive been feeling so down and its taken afew days to wake up feeling positive. Today i feel that little bit stronger so heres hoping today will be my first gamble free day. The depression is slowly starting to life and i have a new determination. Does your partner know about the gambling? Mine has no idea and i dont feel like i can tell him. I have told that many lies I just cant do it. I wish you the very best of luck and hope you can kick this evil habit.
Good luck bej.. I'm making similar progress on day 4 following a long long time without having a day off betting.. I've got a little one too and that's my main motivation to beat this so I wish you well friend
