Good evening,
Today is the 8th day since I last gambled. But what I want to know is weather that is down to me having no money and no access to any anymore. Or weather it’s because I know if I do I’ll lose my house, girlfriend and young baby. In a way I want to test myself, but in a way I’m terrified of what might happen. I know this is a long long journey and I’m only starting out.
Any tips/advice would be greatly received.
Liam
Hi ALN,
Appreciate the quick reply, my girlfriend knows the extent of my debts as this all came out a few months back (I just lied about the reason for the debt until last week). I entered myself in an IVA so now the only debt is with her and my parents. I have installed the gamstop software on my phone to stop any phone activity. Roulette was my poison, horrible thing. I am awaiting face to face counseling, I have ordered the Allen Carr book that many people have reccomended.
What's your story? Are you now GF?
All the best, Liam
Good start Liam, well done, id say gamstop is brilliant its only just come out but is soo reassuring. Good luck, I hope to see u be a success story on here, adam
