Hello everyone,Â
I haven’t gambled for two weeks. I’ve used gamstop and did it for 5 years, Gamban on my phone, gambling freeze on my bank, opened up to my partner and have done online chat for someone to get in touch with me for sessions.Â
I’m proud of myself. I have no urge to want to even go on any website and the thought of doing so makes me feel disappointed and ashamed I ever did. I truly believe I’ll never deposit a penny into any form of gambling again.Â
Never give up. It takes a lot of courage  and any step your taking to be free is a step forward to better your life. If your going to do it, go all out and remove everything and put ALL blocks/bans on.
My kids and family deserve the world and any form of gambling isn’t it. I love my family more than anything. They deserve the best version of me and nothing else.Â
Good luck my friend
I love this. So inspiring.Â
Please can you or anyone tell me what to do to stop? I don't have my own family apart from my mother. So it's not like I have kids to feed or anything. I feel so ashamed.Â
To the heart, that's some hard reality you have hit here. Love it

Just for today I will not gamble, and enjoy the good people in my lifeÂ
@v78on051pl be kind to yourself! This is an illness, you didn’t choose to gamble and mess things up.Â
I’m currently on day 300 GF and I never ever thought I’d do it. But you can do anything you want!Â
Have you heard of Gordon Moody? They offer retreats and counselling and it was the best thing I did! You learn so much about gambling and yourself.Â
Affected by gambling?
