Got an email from casino to say they put a free twenty pound on my card. Sorely tempted to use it. Keep thinking I should go in with no money and use it.

of course its still gambling, any days abstinent from gambling are set back to 0 as soon as you start using those sites again, you turn £20 into £50, £100 thinking withdraw, don't withdraw, lose it, then deposit your own money. Winning is never winning if you have a gambling problem, your just prolonging more upset. If you take it, good luck, if you don't well done.

Ask yourself why casinos give "free bets" in the first place - to tempt people back in.
