Hi guys, today is the day I finally stop gambling it's 15:48 as I write this and I wish this to be the start of my new life. I am 21 years old and ever since I was 15 I have been gambling on poker and basically anything where I could possibly win money. I have been a working man since I was 17 and have earned 50,000 plus and at this moment on time I am about 5,000 pound a drift. My parents and close friends new about my problems a couple of years ago and I stopped for a while but the last couple of years have been really bad for me, gambling my pay cheques and pretending that all my commission would be coming in soon but in reality it was already in the bookies. Me and my girlfriend wish to buy a house soon and she has already started saving. I keep promising we will have a house soon as I save up all my share of the deposit money but I know it won't be easy. I need to stop. Stop this horrible way of living where my life is consumed with anger and the thought of winning lots of money and just put my head down and work towards a better me. I willl keep updating this page and hopefully can beat my addiction and maybe even help others too.
Peace out.
The weirdest thing happened today, after I posted this is I prayed for the first time I have done since my gambling addiction and asked for a bit of money to come into my life to help me out and I walked through my door and i had a tax rebate of 700 pound, a sign to show me what I am doing is the correct path! Now not to gamble it away.
