Hi Benleigh, Welcome to the Forum and thanks for posting. It is good that you have acknowledged your problem with the FOBT after talking to us at Gamcare. There is help, and it sounds like you found talking to us helpful.
Thank you for the possitive comments, however we have to remove the name of the advisor on this side of the forum. You could give us a feedback on our Feedback session of the forum.
I am sure you had other stratergies discussed as well as counselling, and these together with your determination to stop this could see you through.
Again we are pleased that you have found chatting with us helpful.
Take Care
