I have struggled with gambling for years now. I am in my 20’s and have landed myself in large debt about 3 times. I seem to have problem with binge gambling, I can stop fairly easily for months on end, then it all happens again until I am struggling with debt. I am currently in around 16k debt which will take me around 2 years to clear and will have to live on an extremely tight budget. This has to be the last time i do this, I need to move forward with life. I have always been a shy quiet depressed guy and I am beginning to realise my gambling is causing this. I have finally self excluded from everything for good and blocked my laptop. any advice would be appreciated

Hi Allchange, I hope reading the other stories here is helping you. What sort of thing that you have read can you apply to your own situation?

I am finding the site very helpful. I have put barriers in place so I cannot gamble. I am still working on other stuff to fill my time with. Not had a bet in 3 weeks nearly now.

Great to see you are making progress Allchange. It’s early days yet, so keep the barriers high. I find concentrating on paying debt more helpful than focusing on not gambling.
