Unfortunately I'm not completely new to gambling after 3 years gamble free I have fallen back into old habits and back to gambling , a little lost and lonely right now
i tried to talk to my partner about my issue but he doesn't understand and just gets angry and frustrated, he thinks that i'm weak because i can't control the impulse, it's frustrating and lonely because i wish i could explain it but when i try, it just come out like pathetic excuses, i cant see a way forward and the shame and embarrassment is horrible i feel like a 10 year old telling him i've done it again.
You have done it before and it may not seem like much at the moment when u feeling low but 3 years is a long time to stop
 You can do it again with some focus and a plan.
I have had long periods of stopping then restart im here to stop it for good.
At one point i couldnt stop at all i was in such a mess. I feel now im hoping with this last bit nailed and the realisation i wont ever be healed i can stop.
I cant think in time i can bet a bit cos that was my downfall thinking i was healed and could bet like normal people. I slipped back in my own ways. My brain was telling me i was ok to do it now and can control it but it didnt take long for me to be sitting there all depressed and stressed out and wishing id just kept on as i was doing well.
Fresh starts and new beginnings. Im preparing now to start as i mean to go on now and in the new year and every year after that
