Sorry to hear the hardship gambling has caused you. If you stopped before , you will know how you cracked it and you will also know what your triggers and vulnerable moments are. Hard to avoid those moments you just need personal tools to overcome.
I do understand friends and family not lending you money as they may feel they are enabling you to gamble. I enabled for years and it just is not good.
Keep talk and reaching out to Gamecare community to speak to us that know to a point how you feel. It is not easy, nothing that is worth it is ever easy .
Foodbanks can help in short term and confide in friends and family if you can to help you through without money.
Take care Danielle
