Dave don't worry mate everyone been there your not alone. Start again more determined then you were. Have you tried leaving your back card at home and just taking out a credit card and max ten pounds cash. The temptation isn't there if you only have a tenner.
Think of gambling like the fire triangle in school which needs 3 things fuel, heat source and oxygen. Only gambling needs time, access to money and access. Take one of the three above away and you can't gamble so try remove all 3.
1. Keep yourself busy
2.remove easy access to money and limit funds available.
3.ban yourself from bookies and online and casino and bingo etc.
Good luck
