Thanks for the support.

The problems isn’t not wanting to stop. It’s the problems that come along the way, that lead to a relapse.

Gambling isn’t the solution to the problem and probably just makes it worse, but at that moment you’ll just think I want my buzz and combining it with magically thinking makes you want to gamble.

Then comes the identity of the gambler, does he/she has a mood disorder or a personality disorder or is he/she not an assertive type. Is he/she prone to magical thinking.

All this and other aspects are playing a role in having a relapse or not.

I’ve now come to a point where I won’t let my environment have an influence on my gambling anymore. I refuse that, I’m doing this for myself and not for anyone else.
