Hi Everyone,
It's difficult, I just can't seem to control myself. I have weeks where I don't step inside a bookies and then as soon as it's payday, it's all goes on the dreaded machines. It's happened today and I've lost all my wages in less than an hour.
I feel sick and disgusted with myself and even worst I'm taking it out on people I love dearly!
I just need some reassurance and support from others.
I desperately want to give up, before I end up doing something I might regret.
Many thanks! ❤️
Hi there. Â I have been in your shoes on so many occasions and my biggest downfall was like yours - payday, where on many occasions it would all be gone in a matter of it being in my account for less than one hour!! I just shudder when I type this. Â Please read the diaries on here - read mine if it helps! I am currently on day 313 days g.f.
I would advise to put every block in place if you really do want to stop for once and for all.
I wish you strength and determination.
Pink Lady 🩷🍎.
@j5a6meyr4z thanks for the support and kind words. I want rid of this awful addiction, if it wasn't because of me stupidly following a work colleague into a bookies, I would have never ended up like this and that was over 10 years ago. Before that, I never had any thoughts of gambling. ❤️
