Hi milkncereal, well done on looking for help.
She rolled her eyes? Why wouldn’t she? My family were the same – they had heard it all before.
There is a very old saying – actions speak louder than words. It is particularly true with stopping gambling, especially when they ahve heard the words before.
The good news is that the actions that will help you remain gamble free are the same actions that can help rebuild the trust. Things like getting to those meetings, posting here, barriers such as self exclusion and financial accountability. You want her to trust you – then show her your bank account etc so that she KNOWS you aren’t gambling.
One thing you could do straight away – you have closed your account until 2018? Why? Why not ask them to exclude you permanently?
Keep posting and let us know the positive actions you are starting to take. Maybe show your partner this site as well, she might find the Friends and family Forum useful.
