Hi everybody. Feel completely lost at the moment and whenever my family become aware of my gambling issues they can not relate so its nice I've found this platform to find people in the same situation as myself. After many efforts ive realised i simply cant beat this habit alone and i have been in contact with the Gordon Moody association to defeat this illness for once and for all. Do any of you guys have any experience of this place positive or negative. Was it worth 14 weeks out of work? (For me which will be unpaid and its likely I will have to leave my job).
Thanks in Advance Guys
Aaron
I feel the same way as you today is the first day I joined here but I feel much better in my self as I don’t feel alone anymore and everyone here understands
