I keep messing up, every month I lose my wages it could take 3days-10days everything goes. Then having to ask people for money(family or friend) giving some lame excuse y I have no money. It’s getting stupid.Â
I’ve barred myself online and feel strong when I’m not in the bookies. The moment I walk in I know It’s game over, I lose all self control. (Y am I like this) it’s killing me.
I came here to change my way of thinking with like minded people. I can’t do this any more I need change.Â
Dear Ace05,
Firstly welcome to our Forum, I hope you can find some solace and support in our community here.
Thank you for posting and sharing your story with us. I can hear your gambling is really affecting you and things are intense at the moment. You've done well to bar yourself from online gambling, this is a strong start. There's a lot more gambling support available for you, you do not need to go through this alone. We're here on our helpline 24/7 on 0808 8020 133, or on our live chat, Facebook or Whatsapp.
I wonder if you've looked into any mental health support too? I noticed you mentioned feeling like gambling is getting too much for you. There is help for you to manage your mental wellbeing, as well. Your GP is a good place to start if you haven't already.
Wishing you all the best
