      Hi all
      After 20 years of gambling and thousands and thousands of pounds thrown away. It is now make or break for me. I have run up thousand of pounds of debts (which i am struggling to pay), had lots of arguments with my family, all down to the gaming machines in bookmakers.
      I have always had football bets on a weekly basis (approx £40 – £50 per week), but ever since the introduction of the dreaded gaming machines in bookmakers (approx 2001) i have hit rock bottom, and probably lost £50,000 +
      I am on a good salary, (paid monthly), but usually a week after pay day i have spent the lot, often blowing anything up to £800 per week. I then borrow to pay my bills, leaving me nothing for my family and children. it’s a vicious circle i need to break.
      If this carries on i will lose everything. I really want to stop this and hope people will aid me.
      I keep telling myself one day at a time , and i need to be positive.
      My new life starts today , with all the gambling behind me (hopefully)
