Hello Cheryl gambling habit or addiction as it can become affects us all in different ways
hang in there Cheryl
Tri
Ty Suzanne and Tri
The enormity of the effect of my last relapse is hitting hard, from next Thursday I will not have a job due to this addiction. Everything is finally crashing down around me and I have no fall back plan.
I am taking full responsibility but if I want to self destruct why have I allowed so many others to be affected, mainly my immediate family. It truly robs us all
Cheryl xx
your right it truly does rob us all
on a daily basis the amount of work and determination i need to put in to keep myself from gambling is ridiculous but whats the alternative?
if i gamble your so right; its everyone else i love who suffers yet that doesn't always seem enough
Hi Cheryl.... how are you feeling today? Maybe that's a stupid question ....am worried about you. Things look black at the moment but you've been there before...you'll come through the other end. Life will get better, it has to. Bloody gambling eh? We never anticipated this self-destruction when we loved that buzz/thrill/win....then we find ourselves here in a pit of despair. You will be stronger BECAUSE of it....take care... keep posting. Helen. Xx
Hi did speak to you early on and me and u have lapsed again. I'm sick of it as i guess you are hope you sort your money problems out. i'm back on day 5 need to stay gamble free forever to have a better life and hope you do too. x
There are no solutions for my current situation so that's it for me. Even some of the people who used to support have given up on me. Ty Helen for caring and sorry you have relapsed carlsimon. Keep at it

Morning Diary
It's been 13 days since my last bet. Have tried all avenues to raise the 150 pound needed for re registration to no avail.
Have to come to terms with the fact that I and I alone am responsible as had I not relapsed it would have been fine.
I can't even be in the same room as my family as feel so ashamed ( rightly so ).
Not sure what will happen when I haven't paid the fee except for the fact they won't allow me to work. FACT
My OH is really suffering from the fall out of my actions as we have no workable car and he can't get to work except to walk as he needs to leave before the buses start. 3 1/2 miles.
I am crying as I write this and I keep saying sorry but it's really not sufficient.
Am convinced there will be no solutions
