Thanks for posting roasterpin, I think now it’s a time to take a leaf from everyone’s book here and walk away for me, not sure if it’s the right place to post but thought id post here.
Today was a really bad day – pay day is always difficult, never enough money to pay all the debts, so gamble hoping to win.
I started out with £1.9k in the bank, by 9pm I had 3.5k. I’d done what i needed to get through and have a great month, but it’s when you’re left alone you say “just another couple hundred i’ll stop”. I sit here now at 3am with £250 in the bank and just a head full of shame.
Gamstop is way overdue and i just wish i had walked away earlier, and had that someone to say you’re up. Set cooling down period and relax. It’s such a shame there’s no alert on these gambling sites to say continuous deposits have a red flag. For me it’s like the only way to stop is hitting £0.
Hopefully i find a way to tell the family i’m short on money this month, hopefully gamstop and bandit’s videos will help me too, and hopefully it is something i can walk away from and never come back. It’s true, the worst addiction because it’s so easily hidden.
Thank you Bandit for helping us all, and thank you everyone else for sharing your experiences. Even though they may not get replies, just knowing someone else is going through what you are can be enough.
2:55am out.
