At the start of the day say just for this day i wont gamble… break it down to hours if you ahve to.. just for the next hour i wont gamble and delay those urges to go..

Keep posting here, the good the bad and the ugly.. whatever you feel now will pass and is changeable.. it is not permanent.. when you get some time off gambling. things really clear up and you will start to see solutions
There is always rehab too if things are out of control.. there are many many ways to recovery and you can use as little or as many as you like.. for me i would say use all you can when you are in the state you are in….
Dont keep your feelings a secret.. tell people how you are feeling.. suicide is not the answer, it will ruin the lives of everyone you know for the rest of their lives..
Work through it.. get help.. you have voiced your concerns here, voice your concerns to someone there. where you are in real life, face to face.. go to a hospital and talk to them.. if you feel suicidal. Its acting impulsively that causes the destruction, put eveyrthing on hold.. wait things out.. talk to people
