Hi Hunter
Welcome to the forum. I am also new here but the advice, support and warmth of the other people on here is second to none.
Take on board their great advice and put some barriers in place.
In the last few days I have excluded myself from all the online sites I was using. I have also downloaded k9 browser and got rid of all my other browsers so that I can’t be tempted to gamble as it is now blocked. As well as this I have also handed over all the financial responsibility to my husband so he now handles all the household bills etc.
Your partner already knows of your addiction so just be honest. It’s hard to do but it’s worth it once you get it all off your chest and have someone to lean on and to listen.
I also have a young family so I know how the guilt of what you have done or spent can eat you up but try not to dwell on it (easier said than done I know) but try to focus on the future. A gambling free future for you and for your family.
If you ever need a chat please feel free to drop by my story.
I hope today has been a gamble free day for you.
Lots of love xxx
