Hello @Andrew1234
You are doing the right thing by coming on here and sharing your story. I can see from your other posts that you've had some really difficult experiences in your life. It's not unusual to turn to coping mechanisms like alcohol and gambling. You have started the ball rolling by asking for help, and getting an appointment for some treatment for your gambling. Things might not change overnight but step by step you can get there. In the meantime, you are welcome to give us a call on 0808 8020 133 or chat to us on the Livechat. You can talk to us about how you're feeling and we might be able to help you work out some stronger blocks. We can also point you towards help for your debt.
Try and be kind to yourself, and keep posting.
Best wishes
