Hi Hayley,
n
nI facilitate some of the groups here, I am also a Compulsive gambler myself. I am sure that Velvet will give you some of her words of wisdom when she sees this. She also hosts the friends and family groups where you could talk to others in your position. You could get a lot of support there as well – just check out the group schedule.

nWhen it comes to your boyfriend I would say it is great that he has admitted the problem. The important thing though is what is he prepared to DO about it? You are here – where is he? He can get a lot of support in the My Journal Forum or some of the other live groups. he can get support at Gamblers Anonymous. He can put barriers in place so that he CAN’T gamble.

nIt is an old saying – action speak louder than words. Never more so than with an addict who has been caught. Keep posting.
