Gambling is really taking over my life with making accounts in family members names to borrowing money off friends. I will lose money in a few minutes and not even care until afterwards when I realise it has gone , also suffering with depression as it is and OCD and not being able to work , time gets lonely a lot and thats when im most vunerable, my bank was suppose to step in and restirct my account completely as the debit card block for gambling is not great as I can still deposit via Bank transfer to these casino do I have even a foot to stand on ive begged for weeks for them to do something however they just have not my other bank account Monzo has blocked all sort of transactions as such however one bank is making my days worse and worse on a daily and I dont know what to do anymore to be honestÂ
Hi, have you joined GamStop? If not I'd encourage you to join for the full 5 years. Obviously there are ways of getting around it if you are using family members names, so the next step would be to tell someone you trust what is going on.
Hi
Becoming aware that the addictions are not healthy for us can save our self so much more pains in the future.
I am a non religious person adn found that the recovery program helped me make much healthier choices in my life.
I would say that if you go to a healthy recovery room it can save you from a life of self inflicted pains.
Once you get honest with your self you can achieve so much more with your life.
I am no longer the loner.
I am able to do more healthy things with my life today.
My pains get healed.
My fears get reduced.
There is an understanding of my healthy needs today.
There is an understanding of my healthy wants today.
There is an understanding of my healthy goals today.
Living with out the burden of my addictions and obsessions I am abale to be a much healthier person today.
Love and peace to every one.
