Hey All . 

I'm currently dealing with Debt due to my gambling problem which has all been caused via Online gambling . Even though i know what i am doing is totally wrong every time i get any access to any money I'm instantly back to the thing i don't want to be doing . Its as it i turn into a zombie or even go into autopilot and continue to bet no matter the amount until its all gone . I'm struggling to focus on anything other than the debt and I'm too ashamed to open up to the people close to me and tell them what has happened ( I've been Bailed out Before ) 

Maybe I'm being a cry baby and need to deal with the suffering to maybe feel as if my actions have consequences I'm not sure.  

 

I'm on gamstop and gamban for a heads up 

 

Thanks NevrLearn

Your not the only one going through this my friend. I am the same as you, as soon as I get some money my first thought is im going to try my luck and beat the house. (The house always wins) I can't tell my loved ones because I don't want them to be disappointed.

I have been bailed out too and I use the excuse that I'm falling behind on bills. The truth is that I'm using my bill money to try and make more. Its such a depressing down spiral that I can't seem to get myself out of.

 

I'm here if you need to talk mate.

 

Thanks

Hi

Living in guilt and shame lets us know what we did and said was unhealthy to us and other people.

Living in guilt and shame lets us know we ahev a healthy conscience.

In time we understand that we are unhealthy and need to heal our pains.
