So far so good still see flashes of free spins and bets on social media and but strangely I don't feel the urge to download and have a play or have a punt. Payday in a few days my accounts overdrawn and I'm worrying will I have enough to see me through and the answer is yes I have more then enough but in the back of my mind it's never enough. I have holidays booked bdays cropping up I have the odd brain flash shall I have a small bet and make some pennies to help towards these expenditures due soon!!!
I have hardly any temptation as I did when I hit it hard back in 2007 I was young father bringing up a family back then but not I'm an older father paying towards his children in a well paid position so I can't answer why I became complacent. Bills all paid excess money and I blew it all online
I have gamblng debts and Joint debts with my ex totalling 65k I've looked into bankruptcy etc but I'm not ready to deal with that yet I need to focus on my addiction if I take on to much I'll probably gamble to pay of my creditors etc and get in to a pickle
My partner has my bank card and my online bank details to so there's no sneaky bets. I spend no money on myself or use money daily funny thing is I'm a bit of a Scrooge due to my mum being a single parent we as kids hardly had anything but now I can have it all but I choose to gamble
Now I can tell my partner I have no control for months I've been saying Don't worry about it I'll stop and I did when I was broke but as soon as payday hit bang I was on it
Anyway will update on my thoughts and where I am once a week
Good luck....hope its going ok for you xx
