I took an overdraft from the bank I put all the blocks in place but I was in a different town I actually feel ashamed writing this I must have sat there in a trance staring at a screen trying to win some money back. I would have ended it all yesterday but the love of my girlfriend kept me going. These places don’t even blink an eye at the amount some people put into these things. I remember looking at the screen next to me seeing the guy had won the jackpot. The hours are crazy these places are open 24/7 I don’t want to go back to this dark place again. There’s more to life than gambling.
The £2 maximum stake is ridiculous as well you can lose money just as fast. There’s clearly an issue these places aren’t staying open 24/7 for that match in Japan! They offer these bonuses which say one in five which could pay less than what it takes for you to get it. I’m making the decision to take back my life to take control day by day.
So what now?
What I learnt from my 30 years of dealing with this is that it is all on yourself to decide what happens from this point. You can go left or right or forwards or backwards. It is all upp to you. Once you start accepting that fact it becomes a bit empowering. I used to blame everyone and everything for the situation I was in. Everyone else but me. But me was the actual problem. So once you start to work with yourself to fix those problems and take responsible decisions you start to grow a bit. You do not have to fix it all at once. You can do a bit at the time. The get rich or die trying thing, starts to fade as you become more aware of yourself. You also owe it to everyone who loves you to stick around and learn from this so you can help others around you. So find some strength and stand up dust of and walk on. This is just the start of something new for you and not the end of anything. Remember that.
I wish you well
Best
