Hello, i am 27 and ive been gambling on and off for like 10 years now. Lately it has gotten worse and last 2 months ive lost over 12-15k euros.

Luckily thanks to my bank limits i didnt lose all of my money and i am not in debt (100% sure if i didnt have any daily bank limits then i would have lost allready everything long time ago)... i still do have some money left in bank but i did lose most of it wich i collected with hard work over the years...

What makes it hard for me to stop gambling is that one site that refuses to close my account. Its just so pathetic and long story... basically ive told them that i have a gambling addiction and i cannot controll myself and i need my account to be permamently closed... after long talks with theyr live supports and alot of lies from them they have closed my account few times but always re opened it when i wanted (even when i told them do not re open my account if i come back) Lost over 10k euros in that casino and my account is still open and they dont close it anymore... they keep telling me all kind of lies like: "just take a break man" "it will take 7 days to close your account"... I just hate them so so much but i am so weak that i keep going back to that site and keep gambling there..

Anyways i am going for 100 days challenge to not gamble (hopefully never)! Hopefully this thread will keep me motivated. Ill be posting here everyday wich is successfull starting from tomorrow since today i allready played and ofc lost.

GL to me!

Hi welcome and good luck, its down to blocks and will power, as with blocks you would think u cant gamble but unfortunately you can so unfortunately its down to u and me to just Sa to ourselves we are not giving them anymore money. The government does nothing about it as it is probably a minoririty of people who get themselves into this trouble, well who knows it could be a majority anyway good luck I'm on a month now gambling free and feel a lot better. The mo

only money we can earn is money thru good old fashioned hard graft. ​

Hey adam123 thanks for checking on my thread and wishing me luck! Its super nice to hear that u are gamble free for month now. I really hope i can get there to!

Yeah ive told myself so many times that " i wont gamble anymore " "this was the last deposit i did" and so on.. but after few days i still find some way to play. Honestly i am just so dissapointed about myself because ive broken to many promisess because of this gambling addiction and enough is enough.

I will try my best this time to quit!

Well done for starting a diary, it shows you want to stop.

One word- gamstop

I hardly ever gambled online but signed up in 1min just to block that avenue. It was an incredible relief and has really helped my recovery so lord knows how good it makes others feel.

Try not to allow yourself a way back in, I often left the back door open after battening down the hatches. Go for it, total commitment, you are in the right place, many on here will help you.
