Hi Laura, thank you for your comments, I have no partner but I am thinking of giving control to someone, I ‘confessed’ my problem gambling to a debt advisor who suggested meetings, I don’t think I’m ready to sit in a roomful of people that I have no self control, I’m constantly fighting the pure shame of not being able to afford to eat at times, I’ feel I’m on the first step by telling someone as that has led to telling a close friend, I’ve read loads of self help tips on here, perhaps that alone might be enough, and people like yourself who kindly show support and understanding goes a long way, thank you
