I had a relapse last year in October after one year without gambling, went over it and made another five months without gambling. Now I had another relapse. Big one. Both relapses came when things did not went well in my life and things did not went well in my relationship. What is was nice and good and like a perfect life it ended so bad. Nearly gambled all my money I saved in that five month time, now I have left one quarter and I was thinking to gamble that one as well but I stopped before it was too late. Now the money I will make them back, but what about my life? The thing is that I feel so low and I feel that everything I do it doesn’t bring me any joy anymore. I have no clue what I will do next, I guess I will sort it out somehow like I always did. But what can I do to improve mental health at the moment? How I can help myself? What do I have to do to don’t go to the same things over and over again? What? What do I have to do? I am alone now and I can not talk with not one single person I have around me because of the amount of money I had lost. And also they know I am not gambling anymore.
Hi dj sorry to hear this hopefully you get back on track the only way to stop you going down this path again is to lock all the financial doors meaning blocking all gambling transactions from your online bank account installing gamban on your phones tablets or computers signing up to the Moses scheme by giving them a phone they will send you a link to upload a photo then ask what bookmakers to effectively ban you from for an initial period of 18 months .and also speak one to one with the excellent gamcare advisors .I hope this helps and wish you all the best for the future.
