    My advice would be to close the gambling accounts. They will be a place to turn to at low points. Ban yourself please and put more barriers in place

    Thank you for your reply and sharing your experience 

    i hope I am able to move forward as you have. 

    ehat You said about the loss and paying the price for things that go wrong in life made sense to me and i Feel more comfortable imagining I lost the money on property , healthcare or a divorce rather than gambling.

    I will definitely keep you posted about my journey

    🙂

    I did not gamble yesterday and I will not gamble today

    parting with plus 1k cash was hard yet £30000 online was easy. Ah the fog and lack of control!

    I say never again !

    Well done for cancelling Miami. Focus on paying back the money borrowed and building your busines. 

    Lets never look back murr

    i found out yesterday that a close person to me was conned out of £4000 and then another £6000 of her inheritance by a man she though she could have a relationship with. The £6000 was borowed by her from the bank. She’s a single mother with two children, never had a lot of money and is on minimum wage. She is now in debt because she lent that money to somone who actually gambled it away .

    At first I felt angry that she could just give a stranger £10,000 on hearing he was strugglin. He used the money on trading online!!!!

    then I remembered the huge lack of care or reason I showed by gamnling. i felt so sick hearing that and thought about the huge amount of money I had wasted. I felt so sad for her and realised bad things can happen to anyOne.

    It really hit home that enough really is enough for me. I am not looking back anymore. I am taking control now.

    you are still young and your debt is less than a mortgage or student loan. Hold you head up high and never think that gambling is the answer to your problems 

    your hard work and honesty to yourself is your solution 🙂
