scottyboy is spot on DONT DO IT , if you want to win at gambling let me tell you how , the only gauranteed way of winning at gambling is by NOT gambling . Also i think self loathing to a certain exstent is good it makes us realise not to gamble again , trust me pal and i care when i say it forget your losses self excude from every possible place , and do whatever it takes to stop , it does not just take your money but also your time your sanity your life eveything , dont let it anymore , there is no shame in walking into a bookies and self excluding , people in there are probably wishing they had of done all the best , simon

what a failure i couldnt do it, why did i come here afterwards and not before i funded ill never know, all night it was on my mind , me money will be in bank now. i managed to have money in my bank for all of 4 hrs fekkkkkkkkkkkkkkk, only done 40 quid and i am going to the bank now to get the rest out befor i do thelot, god the swear words comingout my mouth right now arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hi mich

You have come on here now so that's good

At least not too much damage done yes get your money out ASAP it's not being weak you need every barrier you can get

Use the triangle money time location take one away and it makes it impossible to play

Well done on coming on here

thank you for the reply suzzanne , yes i have just been out and got the rst of money out of bank so i cannot fund any more today.and i am going to spend it on the things i need before i can get a ukash voucher i am still gutted tho as i dont know what possessed me to fund in the first place it only lasted 10 mins , this is gonna be harder than i 1st thought x

Well done mich

I can't have any funds in my bank I leave 8 in after getting paid cos I cannot deposit with less than 10 it has helped me to get to 87 days and I have time to kick any thoughts before I go down the road of a U cash voucher

I pay all my bills and my debts the day I get paid and I then draw the rest out it does make sense it's part of the triangle

Have a good day gambling free now and carry on

day 1 again nearly finished feeling at a low at the mo but i think its more to do the fact i gave in yesderday and funded ,still day 1 done on wards and upwards

day 4 is here and i feel like im going screwy ive been busy all weekend so that has helped but now i feel like some me time and i cant stop thinking bout bingo , i closed my account to my fav site but it is taking allmy will power not to open a new one else where , gonna do a bit of readin on here hopefully the thoughts will pass

In away you the only way you will beat this is to realise at the moment the addiction is stronger than you. So to beat it, you have to outwit it. Simplistic way to do that is to take means and opportunity. Put simply no cash and self exclude. Then you must constantly remind yourself why you do this and you do that by coming on here and sharing or reading. In one way it's simple on a daily basis but extremely hard to maintain. Good luck michael

thank you for replies guys, at this very moment i am typing this i am counting down the hours till my money goes in the bank which is about 4 hours time , am coming on here and gonna read a few stories and so hopefully the thoughts will make me stop and think dont do it

Hi mich

I hope you counted the hours down to not gamble your hard earned money you know there is only one winner and it won't be you because you cannot win because you cannot stop

I hope you do win today by not playing

Keep strong and determined and stay safe
