You have realised that you can never place another bet. Well done for that and for wanting a new life gambling free. If only just not placing bets was all there was to it.
You will need to create a whole new life for yourself, one that is without competitive sports as that is a trigger for you. That doesn’t mean you can’t challenge yourself, there are no gambling ads on hiking trails or mountainsides – but at the game or watching on TV … In some sports the players are running adverts for gambling.
You will probably need to make new friends who won’t drag you to a game. You will need a lot of support to make these changes, be that through a group like GA or counseling. If you look upon your recovery as your challenge you will feel better and better about yourself the more days you stay away from a bet.
Finally don’t chase losses. Your finances may not improve immediately and may even get worse with interest and penalties even after you stop gambling. Get good advice about debts and find ways of clearing them by other (legal) means. See that as another challenge in life that you can surmount – I wish you well in your new life.
