Hey, Well have come back on here as i need help. Have tried talking to people on the phone, have tried these forums even tried reading the bible, but there is an underlying urge to gamble and i know im addicted to it however as a result it is ruining me financially.
As a single guy of 27, i have some issues with ex partner and my son as half the time i spend money on gambling that i cant afford to take him out anywhere which is pathetic because i should be more responsible but i cant help myself since i was paid today ive lost £310 and keep chasing that win, i really need advice here because im struggling and i dont feel i can turn anywhere
Hello Gambleez,
It is good that you're using the forum. Well done for talking about the lapse openly here in the Overcoming section, and you've started a Recovery diary.

Take care,
Adam.
