Hi James,
Nothing boring about your post at all. You needed to get it off your chest and that's fine.
The important thing is that you have given yourself breathing space and come on here also.
Hopefully you will have the strength to stop the rot from now.
Hi Detrimental.
Thanks for your kind words. I really find it helpful that other people have the same problems as me and seeing the different ways of dealing/overcoming gambling. I went for a coffee with a mate this morning (cost me 2.50) sounds daft but was refreshing to spend that little amount of money on something rather than blowing hundreds in the same period of time. Off to work now to claw these debts back.
Hope your own recovery is going well.
Thankyou stephie
