Hi Johnny
We are all guilty of hurting people we care about due to our gambling habits. I have hurt people with my gambling.

This isn’t something I was going to share but I really hurt my sister.
She is my rock, my best friend and I love that girl with every bone in my body.
I hurt her with my gambling habits. I had to ask her for some money a few months ago to be able to pay my rent. She had my bank login details and went on to check my statements.
She came to my house in pieces. The girl I love so much was crumbling before my eyes. In that moment I wanted to be dead. I wasn’t willing to talk to anyone about my addiction as I didn’t think anyone would understand. I was wrong.

Now that I have been open and honest about my addiction and I am seeking the help I need my sister and I are on great terms.

Today I am 5 days into my recovery and have done everything within my power to stay that way. We can’t change what we have done but we can improve.

Lots of love xxx
