Need help!!

It's online slots and every time I self exclude I just open another account at a different casino. There is endless ones!

hi rossmc i know where you are coming from,

this week alonei have lost almost 3000 in the bookies,cant belive i can be so stupid

today i told my partner as i have been quiet all week and she is not stupid she new somthing was up

it made me feel better telling her,

i gave her my bank card and just carry enough cash to get by.

i am already barred from all the bookies but there staff are always changing so that does not stop me.

i bought bet filter for my pc to stop me playing slots and roulette online and that has made me stop there.

its so hard i dont have that kind of money to throw away week in week out so it has to stop from tommorow.

i will be on day one for the god knows how many times but at least trying again.

this is hell and i hate it,give your cards to family or friends cut them up put the blocks in place and try.

longest i did was 3 months so im aiming for that from tm

good luck with this

I'm also due around 30k from inheritance soon and I'm absolutely petrified that if I don't curb this problem right now I will blow the lot!. I know for a fact I will if I don't stop!

And I really hope you can do it mate. It really is the worst addiction. An alcoholic will pass out after enough, as will a drug user but a gambling addict can just keep spending until there is nothing left. I hate it!

i was give a sum of money and wasted it all on gambling over the last 4 years be wise tie the money up make it really hard to axcess, a 30 day notice account.

dont lose it if you keep gambling it will happen without a dout we all know the end result of gambling even if you do win at the start the end of the race is always the same

Put it in a savings bond where you can't access it or something similar. No excuses, just don't f**k it up mate unless you want more agony and more regrets.

Agree with others, get monies put into saving accounts, that have limits on withdrawals.

On payday I used to put 90% of my spare money in one.

It's a good way to see just how much you are wasting on gambling. I realised I was spend a lot more than I thought.

One of the things that triggers gambling is having spare money that is easy to withdraw and spend.

When I started saving 6 years ago I didn't think I'd even save a tenth of what I have. Now I'm tight with money and can't bear to see my savings go down. I still do have holidays and make the odd expensive purchase, but set saving goals and save up for things.

Saving can become an alternative and much better addiction, I wholy recommended it.

Done it again and spent £1000 in the last two days. Just can't bloody help myself. Feel so down again!

Hi Ross , So are you gonna do the same tommorow ?, and the next day and the next ?? . and feel down every day ? . Or are you going to stop !! ? . Let it go buddy , stop chasing what's gone , It's the only way . Youre the only one that can make yourself feel better than you do today , what's gone is gone and it aint coming back , accept that and you will be able to move forward and have a future . You say you cant help yourself but truly , youre the only one who can mate !. I stopped 25 days ago , lost many thousands on the Fobt's and I just got to the point where I can't keep doing it !. Like you I felt like Sh**t . but after a few days I began to feel better and now nearly a month later I feel like a different person . The difference for me this time ,is that I've let go of the past , the moneys gone but in time I can earn it back and repay it !! . At least I wont be losing any more . Sorry to sound harsh buddy but you know I'm speaking the truth !. I'ts in your hands mate , put all the blocks in place and give you card to someone you can trust . You hear many people speak of the Time , money , location triangle . Take one out of the three and you cant bet ! . Which future do you want ? your choice Buddy ! All the best for now Alan

You can do it but only if you really want to. It's easy saying you want to stop when you've just wasted your money but harder when the regret wears off. I agree with Alan, sometimes we need to be told the harsh truth. For starters I wouldn't have access to large amounts of money when you are so vulnerable but its ultimately your choice.
