    There is debt advice available too as things sound pretty tight the organisation step change gives free debt advice they are well respected and can help you find a solution. Good luck with it you have your whole life in front of you. As other posters have mentioned get the support you need from councellors and doctors if there are other issues. I have found cognitive behaviour therapy very useful for depression and stopping gambling
    all the best

    Hi Jordy sorry you are having a difficult time you are not alone.
    Well done on posting in the forum reaching out to other people who have experienced gambling problems too will make you feel less alone. The Group chat is a good place to talk to us all as well and and you can talk to an advisor too. If you are having really dark thoughts i would recommend calling samaritans on 116 123 its 24 hours. You have your whole life in front of you it is possible to give up gambling with support clear debts and save cash again many on here have done it or are doing it. All the best

    50 days gambling free and feeling good I completed the 8 week course in CBT for problem gambling at the national problem gambling clinic last week too. I have also signed up for smart recovery (which is cbt too)read their hanbook and attended one online meeting so far and daily chats online. I have also found the chatroom here very helpful and supportive. This is a new start for me and I am starting to see the benefits emotionally and financially already. All the best everyone.
