I have just spent 250.00 on the slots and all because there's no one in the house at the moment I didn't go on it at all yesterday I'm so mad with myself x
Hi. Those urges just don't go away and I totally understand your frustration. One idea is to think about what barriers you can put in place for when the urges strike which make it impossible to gamble. Perhaps a way which stops you depositing funds, closing the account and asking to be self-excluded, putting game block on the computer etc. only a few ideas and will leave you to think.
The great thing is you know you need to take action. Make that 250 loss your last and get some barriers in place for when those urges surface again.
Keep us posted with your progress and give us lots of good news.
Best wishes
Dave
