Hello

I’m Andrew and I’m 42. I don’t know where to start. I have been losing money online for years and today lost a lot. A huge amount.

I am seeking help and want to stop this. I cannot afford to lose another penny. I can’t afford to survive like this.

I’m going to check in here every time I want to gamble. Instead of going to gamble I will write a diary entry detailing my mood and making a note of how much I thought I was about to deposit.

My wife deserves better. We’re trying to start a family. I have to come to terms with this mess and become a responsible man.

How can I make this work? I’ve given up before but it didn’t last long...

This is day 1 (again).............

Thanks for all the suppport you’re able to give, if you can. I’m so disappointed with myself...

Andrew.

How much I would have gambled today: £10,000

How much I did gamble today: £10,000

How much I instead saved: £0.00 (this is day 1.)

Hi Andrew. Your in the right place. First of all self exclusion/gamstop id say is a must breaking the triangle. I'm back here again after being in recovery and I have to say gamstop has been my crutch. One day at a time and there will be ups and downs us gamblers always believe the next win will be it but it's not we don't win until we stop.
I wish you the best of luck there's lots of amazing people on here so support is never far away.
Well done on taking the first step
The first step to winning
