I agree with Monica… You need to first come clean and be honest with them. You then have to turn over finances to his mom or your family if that is an option. You need to self exclude yourself from all your websites. You then need gamble block on your devises. And the most important thing…. You need to come to terms with gambling and that you do really want to stop. If you are only stoping because he wants you too or your embarrassed that most likely won’t be enough. Gambling has a very strong hold over people… You either confront it whole heartedly or it will beat you down. Quitting gambling is a job in itself. It requires self control, work, empathy, honesty, and time. You said you are a bad person…. I don’t really know you but you don’t sound all that bad… you sound like someone who likes to gamble but is seeing the detriments of it. I will say this… If you continue to gamble it will most likely have an impact on your relationship with your kid. It will affect your husband and his mom and everyone else in your life. You will continue to live a life of lies and spending money you don’t have…
From one problem gambling addicted person to someone seeking advise…. Just stop. Forgive yourself and let it go…. You will never win any money gambling. It will only hurt you and everyone you love. Be well and take it one day at a time. baby steps…
