Cheers dirt bike,
An update on my story, I’ve went on to lose more money. I just can’t seem to stop myself! Even when I’ve self excluded myself from everything I still seem to lose more and more.But I’m determined this is the start. I’m gonna pick up a part time job and start earning back my money, everytime I say I’m gonna to stop I always think what If I put 20 quid and stop when I’ve doubled it. I just can’t do that! I have a serious problem.
I don’t know if I’m repeating myself from my previous posts or not but I’m venting out my frustration at myself.From today I am going to stop.
Everyday I am going to post here and aim to get myself away from this dirty habit once and for all
Jay BJayBParticipantToday i gambled away all my money and i only have 75 pound left in my student overdraft,
I was chasing my losses and i feel sick. gambled away 1400 pound that wasnt even mine,
I am going to go talk to student support at university tomorrow
Dont know wether to tell my parents or not, cause i know they will want to bail me out but i know i will just gamble away the money
I need help
JayBParticipantHey
This would of been day two but i caved on day one, but i have managed to not gamble yesterday or today.
Thanks Charles, i took the steps you advised and got an online blocker, it has really helped. As for the people to keep my money safe, i have not told anyone about my problem. I am too embarrassed and too proud. I feel it is my problem and i should take care of it myself. Its day 2 at the moment and im still thinking about gambling most moments in the day, Do you think my addiction is down to my stress withUni?
Thanks Maverick, Your story really helped motivate me to change my ways permanently, i related to the feeling of not being myself when i gamble, my flatmates notice it and i feel like nothing else matters at the time.
Finally i hope your recoveries are still going well.
