Today marks one month since my last online bet and decided I needed to stop and admit I have a problem.Â
I was really frightened telling my spouse I'd built up debt. But I'm glad I've taken the plunge. Managed go set up a debt repayment plan, but it's been really hard going this month. Really struggling to recover my self esteem and self confidence, and ignore that little voice in my head that tells me I'm the worst person in the world. Online gambling has been my coping mechanism for years and years, when I've been stressed, bored, upset or angry.
Hoping month 2 I'll begin to make some progress to feeling less mentally low and building my will power to ignore the urge to gamble. Hoping the guilt I feel about losing so much money will ease too.
