Hi bear... remember you from previous months and years I’ve been on here. I’ve also had a turbulent time of it. Got on gamstop and gradually getting my head sorted. It’s tough. I’ll try and stick by you pal over the next month at least. It’s a big period for you! Keep replying.
Hi change
Yes I remember you thank you for post I’m going through it at mo stay strong for most of day then bang have a bet again and head starts spinning horrible disease I hope your winning at the moment my friend, your post means a lot thank you.

I wouldn’t say I’m winning but I’ve at least turned around and started to head back in the right direction. The terrain is not the easiest to navigate but I want to do better this time. It’s all words to people reading this as I’ve messed up so much but I’ve got to put it into application... and so do you pal!
What’s been going wrong? What’s caused you to get on the bets and what’s prompted you back here?
I wish I knew imma gambler struggle with anxiety so anything can trigger it but makes things worse in long run similar to alcohol just numbs your emotion and personality makes you a sad human being we both know that wanting to be normal is something I crave for without gambling dictating my emotions it’s a tough road we both know that.
The bear
What’s prompted me back here is people like you in the same position just to talk helps and share the problem.
I’ll try and help you as best you can. You do seem like it’s***t you hard this time. Try to stay calm. You’ve done some long stints of abstaining in the past so can dust yourself off and start again. See now as a new start that you can continue into married life. All the bets are out your system now.
Thank you need to do this awful lot to lose not money but family
1st new day let’s do this big target of not being a loser to my family
Have good day all
