Hi guys. This is my first post. I have bet for years on football mainly. But lately i no i have an issue. Im forever betting. Winnning losing. I still fell bad as i feel even though i can pay my bills and treat my son and partner that when i am betting it is basically stealing from them as i should not be gambling. Please help
Firstly lee welcome and well done on taking the first step.
Knowing you have a problem and admitting it are the first steps on the long road to recovery should you choose to take it.
I can't pretend to understand as I'm a casualty of a gambler. There are some great diaries to read on the recovery page which may help you feel you are not alone, but if you would like to understand how it affects the families there is a page of diaries there too.
Gamcare have some fantastic councillors available if you wish & if you have debts etc then they can help with that too
I wish you strength going forwards
Shelly
