Hi there I'm new on here been really struggling to stop playing the devil machines (fixed odds betting terminals). I've had an addiction for over 12 years it's really been a roller coaster of staying clean and relapsing. This time I want professional help to try work out in my head what makes me want to gamble . I'm pretty much a loner who's too much time on my hands at times. But I'm optimistic this time of changing my life before it's too late and all I have is regrets . Any help and advice be grateful
The fact you have made the first step is amazing keep going this is your time to change your life for the better take one step at a time and discover other things you like doing I spent a long time thinking gambling is my life when I win I feel good when I lose I feel so low and depressed but didn’t want to live like that anymore life’s to short I am now looking forward instead of back because im living in the past but not anymore I’m looking forward for the first time in years and now I’m looking forward to the future
