Day 1 should of been 13 years ago but here i am again, overspent lots of money on this addiction which has left me unable to pay bills or buy shopping this month, but this is day 1 of no gambling i have been on gamstop for a few years which has prevented me from wasting money online at casino's but arrived at a sweepstake site which has taken my life for the past 7 months, i have spent at least 10k. But here goes day 1 i never want to gamble again!

Everyone needs a day one mate. Well done on realising this is now. Read everything in here and take all the advice offered. This is a tough journey but can be done. You’ve done the hard hit. Admitting to yourself you have a problem, not address it. Bank blocks, gambling blocks, meetings, and honesty. With yourself and others. If the secrets out it’s easier to deal with.

Good luck mate. Keep in touch in here. It does help.

Stay strong 💪

Hi all

Complete newbie to the forum. I have been struggling with gambling addition now for over 20 years, I've had periods where I didn't gamble for 5/6 months but here i am again chasing my losses. I hate myself for doing it but the urge is so strong even though know I wont ever be in profit. I'm hoping that reaching out for support is going to help me along the way. I'm determined to give this up and am going to push myself to fight these urges.

day 1 clean of many i hope..
