Boredom is a trigger for gambling for me. Connection was what made a difference. Talking to people on-line keeps me occupied and away from casinos and other places where I could be tempted …. BUT I am not saying what works for me would work for you too – you have to find your own way.
I would consider talking to a counselor though – to work out what is behind your gambling (there is always something else) and sorting that out. It might sound expensive at first – but you might save a lot more than money in the long run.
I wish you well.
