Been gambling on and off for about 4 years started online but then went to bookies I always seem to save money do well then lose it again constant cycle went 5 weeks with gambling then lost 700 pounds in two days I could afford to lose that money but that's not the point just can't do it anymore it takes more than money from me causes me stress and mental health problems just need to find something else to do just mainly on a weekend I don't have any friends and I work through week just weekends seem to be hard for me especially Sunday's but I'm officially giving up gambling just got to prove it to myselfÂ
Hi Markus. I feel you. The stress and anxiety is the worst part. You will get there. I'm sorry to hear you have no friends it must be tough. I lost lots of friends over gambling as I was keep asking them for money and never pay it back.Â
@benji15 thankyou yes you are right caused me alot of stress anxiety and mental health problems sorry to hear the problems you have been through it's hard but we will both get through this all the best to you
Hi MarkusÂ
I am exactly the same as you.Â
I’ve been gambelling 5 years on and off.Â
I spend upto £2000 in a day soemtimes it’s mad. I’ve afforded to gamble until now, I have used all my savings and I’m done with it. I have to turn my life around and I have to change. I want to find a hobby that I like I think that will help. I get bored easily so gambling as always cured that.Â
I hope your ok and keep going!Â
