Hi ICantDoThisAnymore,
Well done on looking for help, you are already getting some great advice.
Wat can you ;earn from your latest relapse?
Have you told your buddy that you have decided to stop gambling so to help by not asking you to go again?
Have you got yourself banned from the casino that you both usually go to? Then it won’t be an option.
Read the other stories here; what things are helping others that you can apply to your own situation?
Keep posting.
Hi James,
Well done on looking for help.
You are not alone with this problem. Read the other stories here, you will see a lot that you will relate to, you will also see the success stories – what are they doing that you can apply to your own situation?
As you are talking about “punds” i am assuming that you are in the UK? You have a lot of help available to you. Here and other similar sites, Gamcare, Gamblers Anonymous and more. The important thing is to use that help – if we could do it on our own thennwe wouldn’t have the problem in the first place.
As Jonny has suggested it helps to get some barriers in place. If you owe friends and family 12k then at least some must suspect that there is some sort of problem, even if they don’t know what.
There are a lot of options around these days regarding the finances. The Citizens Advice Bureau or StepChange will talk you through those options and get you to a place where things are manageable.
The important thing though is to stop gambliong, otherwise of course sorting out the finances won’t be possible.
There is a lot of life after gambling I promise yopu, if you do have those thoughts though then there is always someone to talk to at http://www.samaritans.org/
I suspect that you will have had a fairly crap Christmas, it’s what you do NOW that will determine what future Christmases will be like.
Keep posting and let us know the positive steps you are starting to take.
Hi AGJ,
Well done on trying again.
I think I said to you last time that you might be better off at least copying and pasting yoru blogs here. Looking at your blog it seems you only got a few responses there last time? Here you can get feedback and support from many other compulsive gamblers. You can also of course learn a lot from reading the other stories here as well.
Strength in numbers.
Hi Heinz and welcome to the site. Well done on looking for help.
Read the other stories here, you will see a lot of things that you will relate to. You will aslo read the success stories – what are they doing that you can apply to your own situation?
As you have found, setting limits doesn’t really help and just keeps the addiction ticking over. Rather than have those limts why not ask them to ban you from the site? Better still have a blocker on yoru PC.
Keep this thread running so that you can track your progress in recovery. Let us know the positive steps you are going to be taking.
Hi Robert, you asked a question right at the end of the group. I hope you can make a later group and I can expand on my answer.
What is said in a group remains in a group so I won’t answer here unless you ask the question here.
Well done on the steps that you are already taking.
Well done on your gamble free time Jonny.
How are you filling that time? What are you doing instead of gambling?
A busy few days of sport coming up over the holidays – try and ahve that time planned so that you fill both your time and your thoughts away from gambling
