I've been on and off this website for ages years now and I always stop for few months then I go back. Anyhow this time last week is saved £4000 which is massive for me and yesterday I lost it all on online roulette and it's absolutely killed me I just can't stop and I'm never happy I even got up to about 7,800 pounds and still didn't take it I really need help I've installed blockers and banned myself from all local bookies I just really really want to stop for asking as I can now any help will be much appreciated

Fella for twenty years I walked in those shoes, letting addiction convince my mind that gambling would provide me with what I sought.
The truth for me is that I could never find what I sought through a punt
In fact I could willfully just destroy it.
I lived by a mantra
I CANNOT WIN BECAUSE I CANNOT STOP.
Recovery turns that mantra on it's head.
Commit to recovery fella, the opportunities that are produced are ceaseless.
Abstain and maintain
Duncs stepping forward never back.
Cheers dunc I really do need to stop and regain the value of money again because I lose all concept of money. I'm obsessed with having as much as I can but always goes the same way. How long have you been gamble free dunc?
Joey we are all in same boat, I feel the same we can't win cause we don't know when too stop. I have been on an off on here in past few years and I think too do it you need too
Thanks for the reply Ali. I'm in day one now and I am going to do this I know I am. It's a shame there's no blocking software for iOS devices but I suppose they'd be away around anything if I wanted to gamble. One day at a time and I will over come this before it ruins my life. I'm sure it had an effect in my relationship to
Nearly a week free of gambling and free great the concept and value of money has already come back. Stay strong everybody
