It is a nightmare Robert as you know. I have been gambling hard for 17 years and have tried so many times to stop and here I am again. I have been receiving treatment from the National Problem Gambling Clinic in London it’s definitely worth giving them a ring and getting yourself on the list, it’s helped me out loads. This is a structured program to help people like us stop gambling but ultimately like any addiction it has got to come from the soul of the addict. If you really want to stop and can admit you have a problem then it becomes just that little bit easier that said it’s still very hard to overcome those desires to gamble but you can do it, like any addiction the cravings come and go but you do have to battle through them. I have just thrown myself into my work to try and keep my mind off gambling. I’m on day 44 today, it’s one of the longest periods I haven’t gambled for in 17 years so it can be done one day at a time. Keep batting on Robert!!
