Good evening people,
I joined 2 days ago & just listening & reading to people’s stories make me feel like I am not in this on my own.
We are all suffering with this horrible addiction & together we can help each each other through this, with our kind words & support.
I am currently away on holiday with my family & lost 4K today in 5 mins on Blackjack. I have to stop this, I am now using money I have saved for my kids.
I have blown 100k in 6 years & if I don’t stop I will lose my home in 6 months!!
Evening C17ort, I did something similar last night. Managed to drunkenly open up a betting account and was laying all sorts of stupid bets, of course none of them came in. I used money I didnt have and will be paying that back for a while. I don't know about you but I hate the fact its an invisible addiction. To most people we are fine but inside we are losing our minds. I have loosely spoken to my kind of Mrs tonight and just said I'm betting too much so I'm going to have a break, she doesn't know the severity of it but at least she has an idea. Can you speak to your family? Try to not go it alone if you can. I intend to use here as much as I can.
