Thanks so much for your reply it made a lot of sense!

sometimes I feel that this will never end but I do have hope that together we can overcome this I will take your advice and try not to be so anxious about it sometimes being involved so much that can be difficult but I will try

i find exercise helps me de stress so I need to get back into my routine

your absolutely right about my sons self esteem and confidence is low it always has been he needs to believe in himself more

im seeing him tomorrow and will have a talk with him, I know he feels ashamed about his gambling and doesn’t like how it makes him feel he feels rubbish gambles again and feels even worse

will post in a few days time see how this week goes
