Dear @anonymous2022
It's really good that you find talking about your experiences to be a good release for you. One of the biggest challenges people when stop gambling is how to "fill the void" left behind from gambling. Time forms an important point of the gambling triangle and using your time well can really help.
Are there any hobbies or activities that you enjoy doing that could help you fill your time? Some people take up more exercise, or rekindle a hobby that they lost touch with whilst gambling. Distraction is key.
