I feel like on the inside I am such a caring, loving, moral, warm person. I feel I have so much love to give but the part if me that’s a compulsive gambler punishes that side and strips all of those good elements, possibilities and characteristics away leaving me feeling hollow and almost empty.

I have said previously, the nasty side only comes out once a month but the good side is left to try and repair and keep my head above water for the rest if the 28 days.

There has to be a trigger that will make me stop, to realise that hurting myself time and time again isn’t a gamble I want to take anymore.

I’m struggling to work out what that is.

Hello Kp and thanks for starting a thread in the Gambling Therapy forums

Here at Gambling Therapy we pride ourselves on being a caring and diverse online community who can help and support you with the difficulties you’re currently facing. We understand that this might be a tough time for you, particularly if you’re new to recovery, so come here as often as you need to and participate in the forums, access online groups and connect to the live advice helpline if you need one to one support. We’re in this together!

Here on the forum you can share your experiences in a safe, supportive and accepting environment. The beauty of writing it all down is that you can take your time and you will be creating a record of your progress that you can look back on if it ever feels like you’re not moving forward. So, share as much or as little as you like but do try to stick to keeping just one thread in this forum so people know where to find you if they want to be updated on your progress or share something with you.

And on that note….

I’m going to hand you over to our community because I’m sure they will have some words of wisdom for you 🙂

Take care
