Every time I try to stop I always see myself back on the sites. I have tried GamBan and it didn't work out as I managed to remove it, I am registered on GamStop but got around that to. I have a councillor face-to-face meeting arranged in a few weeks time - I really hope this will sort it for good.
Â
My life is completely upside down in more ways than one - suffering loss, heartbreak, family issues. I try to fight the gambling urges by playing video games to distract myself, but after so long I always seem to crawl back to it. It's destroying me, I would like to know what to do or try next - I know only myself can change and I really want to but it wouldn't be an addiction if it was easy to control.
Â
I've noticed one of my biggest complexes is to try and win money back to pay of further debt e.g overdrafts.

Please share any thoughts.
I am wishing you well mate. I ain't in a position too give you advice as only just got on the waggon of no gambling but stay strong and fo your best too stay out of the gambling .Â
Â
Wishing you wellÂ
