Hi everyone Johnny here again 

After several unsuccessful attempts to stop gambling using GAMBAN, GAMSTOP, giving my bank cards away,blocking software on my banks etc etc tried literally everything, but I still had an urges to gamble either after 3 or 4 days or few weeks or few month at the time I always came back to gambling. 

I found a way how to stop finally. My brain doesn't literally have to tackle gambling thoughts at all anymore and I believe that would work for anyone who has gambling problem 

Us pathological gamblers have issues with self esteem, anxiety, depression, social anxiety, ADHD, you name it I know many of you maybe all of you would agree

I spoke to my GP and was prescribed an antidepressant

Since I started being on it I no longer gamble, it was a life saver for me, no side effects and I don't have no more gambling urges or thoughts at all. 

Absolute life saver
