Hi everyone, after a year ended with self exclusion from GAMSTOP I have decided not to further extend as I wanted to by a lottery online which is totally a biggest mistake. I was seeing a few of gambling sites advert on FB then something trigger on my brain.I thought betting £10 it won't hurt just a little bit of fun, I thought I am managing so well and in control as you all know what the story ended... I have relaped 3 times since 2016,and each time I have lossed so much money then I stop for the whole year without thinking of them. I think I have a gamble addiction as I alway live in denial, every time I see buzzing it stimulate my brain with a huge urges inviting me want to play.The amount of money I have lossed purely because I have chased my losses that escalated to a large sum of money. I am now self exclused from all betting websites also extended with GAMSTOP for further 5 years to help me reduce my urges with gambling. Hopefully for the next 5 years, I will be able to think more clearly and evaluate myself why I start gamble at the age of 40? what is make me want to gamble? Hopefully I can find the answer.
Thank you for reading
