I recently started playing online bingo and slots and have got myself into a mess. I'm a mother of 3 and very lonely and stressed when my partner is at work. I started playing them and enjoyed the buzz of winning and it gave me something to do where I didn't need to think about how unhappy I am. Now I have went from being the sensible one with money to being in a complete mess. I have took steps now to stop things from getting worse but I'm so angry and embarrass at what I've done x

Hi Babz - I'm new to this site and like you, my downfall has been on line bingo/slots. The 'high' we get from winning is temporary isn't it? Let's make a serious effort ----- you and me both - this is my first day. Stay in touch! Good luck. Helen.

Hi babz i feel the same! I have 4 kids and my man is always at work or sleeping. I feel so unsupported and i have no help from anyone at all. I am also now my mother's carer too so i have a huge pile of stress and the slots and bingo took it away for a bit.

I have been able to refrain from gambling for a whole 9 days now! Feels like a life time ago!

good luck - You took a step in the right direction already!
