Hi Steev,

Thanks for replying. I dont really chase losses, I know the money is gone and i wont get it back. Its the bonus im chasing, Doesnt matter if it pays loads or pays nothing. I dont feel any different!

It was Cruse that i had the problem with before and they were litteraly ZERO Help!. I have contacted Mind in the past for different issues and found the same to be honest. 

The live chat sounds good i will take a look at that.

Im on Day 2 now cold Turkey but i have money going in my bank tomorrow so will see if i manage to get to the cashpoint first thing and take it out before i get the urge!

Thanks 

Jem

Hi Meghna83,

Thanks for taking the time to reply, I read through your journal before i took the step to join this site. I guess reading other peoples issues, then their ways of dealing with it is helpful in a way.

This one game is killing me, if this game was to dissapear today i know i would no longer have a problem. But its not going to dissapear so i have to beat it!

Hi Steev,

Not sure if im doing this right But hopefully it will get to you!

Thanks for taking the time to reply to me. There are some good steps for me to work on re Gamstop and Gamban. I am hesitating to do it though because i guess somewhere in the back of my mind i still think i can get lucky and win it all back – Which i know is impossible but still somewhere in my brain it thinks it is! I know i just need bite the bullet and do it again! I have timed out from everywhere i play online, But i guess it makes no difference cause i have no money left to play anyway! 

Re The traumatic event – I found my partner dead – This tipped my world upside down. We kind of relied on each other, So without him i dont really have anyone i can talk to.

I CANNOT tell my mum, I have caused her so much money troubles and stress in the past which she is still paying off i cant have her worrying about anything else and cleaning up my mess again. 

I have spoken to my GP and Physchiatrist, Neither of whom were much help. 

I tried to get berevement councilling and found that nearly impossible with wait times of up to 6 months if atall, This kind of put me off going through that route again, But i will look into it and see if gambling counciling is any quicker. 

Im going to spend the afternoon checking out the links you put on your message, Gamgare and gamblers annoymous. 

I have also downloaded this app so maybe when i get the urge i can click on the app instead of the casino!

Thanks Again

Jem
