Hi Almost,
Well done on taking the first step in your recovery. Its certainly not an easy one for sure.
Perhaps you could start your own topic (thread) so that people can read and reply to you and you can tell your story.
It sounds all too familiar to me, the lying, sneaking behaviour that is a compulsive gambler. I’m not sure where you are located, but things like self exclusion, giving up your debit cards to your husband and letting him take control of the finances (that’s a hard one I know), attending GA, and reading and posting here, all these things can help you find a life where gambling no longer rules.
You can get your life back. Its not easy, in fact its really hard work, it wont happen in a day either, but in time you can live a gamble free life.
I hope you start your own thread, and get the support you deserve.
Take care K x
