hi thank you so much for your reply, even just reading what youve put has given me more confidence to stop, i appriciate all the points youve made to me and will take them on board, the hardest thing i find is that ive lost pretty much all my friendship group through gambling, as i always would spend my money in the bookies and not on nights out, epecially over the last few years, so that i dont have many opportunities to actually go out and do things, i work, i go home *repeat*
i would like to say it was pure bordem and lonliness that i found to be the reason why ive gambled alot more in the past 2 years or so,
its my fault and now i have to start from scratch and work my way up. and the worrd of encouragement from yourself and others im hoping will help me along the way
all the best
ciaran
