Hey Laura, thank you for your reply. 

I’m not struggling with paying my rent as my studentloan comes in on the 24th and literally instantly transfer it to my shared bank acc instantly, although my parents would always help me out incase i needed it.

Just last week i asked my dad 5 times in 3 days for 30 euros which were all intended for gambling purposes, it’s gotten to a point where i’m just emberassed about my addiction towards my parents, who are the only people in my life that know about it too.

I’ll be honest with you, i never considered counseling sessions nor do i know if they are at my campus, i’m sure they are but i’m not sure if its necesary, i find myself a strong minded person and do truly believe that i can get through this myself (even though ive said this for the past year, yet got dragged back into it everytime). I have for the first time ever closed all of the betting accounts that i have along with asking them to stop E-mailing me with their promotion spams.

I do see writing all of this up and giving it a place and audience a step into the right direction, i do understand that what i did wasn’t healthy and has to be put to a stop, boredom was my main motive for gambling in the first place, i hope that with common sense and alot of distractions i can overcome this demon.

Thanks once again for your reply.
