So after 8 years of consitiently spending every penny i get on online casinos 2 weeks ago i finally decided enough is enough. I registered with gamban on 5 year auto renew. Im 2 weeks free almost 3 my mind is clearer. Not constantly stressing where i will get money for bills because i ahve gambled it all away. I actually went away for a weekend and i done it no fear of not being able to afford it. I actually havent even missed it because i know nomatter what i won i would end up putting it back in and losing again. Heres to the recovery aheadÂ
Massive well done to you Laura, I am just over 4 weeks clear of gambling and it's the first time I have gotten help.Â
The first 2 weeks are the hardest and the it was getting past payday which my big trigger.Â
If you haven't already it's worth reaching out to the support team on here. I get a call once a week. We have spoken about, urges, how the brain works and what gambling does to our brains. Soon we are looking at a maintence plan. Soo helpful for me 🙂Â
Please keep us updated with the journey!Â

Well done Laura. Have you tried any of the chatrooms on here ?
Thanks everyone for the kind support !! 3 weeks gamble free. I dont know what happened ita like a switch went on in my head where enough was enough and this couldnt go on and since then I havent wanted to gamble once which I dont get since my mentality was as soon as I had any sort of money it went into online casinos lol. I have had money in my bank every day since ive bought myself and kids things without fear of not having the money I love this feeling and long may it last !!Â
Well done Laura.  My slots addiction has been 7 years, out of nowhere!  Like you, I have been burning through money as soon as it hits my account and increasingly, even before it hits my account, by borrowing, taking from savings etc… It is a good feeling to now have some money in my account.
