Hi
I never thought it would come to this, but it is long overdue.
For a long time now so long I can hardly remember how long ago it started it must be about 9 years now of roulette destroying my life.
The amounts of time I've spent my wages, short term loans and family money on roulette is far beyond belief. The lies and cover ups for years to my family and especially my partner, run up so much debt and been given so many chances. Well my chances are now gone and at risk of losing everyone I love, I have an amazing partner and 2 even more amazing kids.
The worse thing about what I have done is still gambling even though I have a family dependant on me and even with being threatened of losing it all yet I still go and gamble. I feel disgusted with myself how selfish and greedy can I be, they deserve so much better and I am now hoping I can be that better.
Yesterday I got paid and put it all in the bookies, every time I thought I could deal with it, I thought knowing I would lose my life would be enough to stop me but it hasn't helped now I know I really need help and I will be starting counselling.
Today is day one, a fresh start, a better life for me and hopefully my family
Hi, I'm new to the group but as we've joined on the same day is thought I'd say hello.
I'm single but I always think if I get in a relationship and have kids I would stop but reading people's stories it doesn't just stop . It's a horrible depressing lifestyle and I just want it to stop .
Wish you luck pal
I'm new to the group I'm a mum of a CG and he has never had a normal life he has lost relationships over this demon!
I hope you get some long over due help?
Best of Luck
Best of luck to you and your family!

I took the wrong path kept gambling
If i won a billion i would not get me back what i lost.
I am not going to preach but believe me the pain of losing your wife/kids and self respect is unbearable.
Do what ever you have to and get the help to stop.
