Hi Emzo, Sign up to Gamstop it blocks a lot of stuff and then I have said plenty of times get a hobby something that interests you it could be bowling, fishing, knitting, art or like me i play video games. If you have something that can keep your mind occupied during the period where you would usually gamble then it will be much easier for you to get past it.

I agree Seedy, the best way it to find something that you like doing, could be reading, writing, watching box sets of something, making videos and editing music and audio [as i like to] or you could go doggin and watch Seedy playing with his balls in a built up area 😛  Only jokin…  he wont let anyone watch… booo..  🙂

Sorry to hear you relapsed, and I hope you’re feeling a bit better now its sunk in. Like seedy said, find a hobby. I’ve recently stopped vaping and I’m finding it easier if I have something to take my mind off it. My other half builds model cars to distract him, and watch random shit on YouTube or do crafts with my daughter if shes home. Stay away from things that can make you pass something to trigger you such as a bookies. Hope you’re feeling ok x

I recently and reluctantly signed up to Gamstop after advice from here. Its worked a treat for me just an acceptance that I cant gamble online at any casino which I would consider safe to use.

Also takes will power and as Seedy said a hobbie. I was bad for the FOBTS and used how I felt after gambiling as a reason not to go in again then i used online and i wasnt enjoying it anymore but still gambiling and finding it hard to stick to my limits so I signed up to Gamstop and not gambled since.

You will have relapses and I always found the first few days to a week hard not having that rush. It how you deal with and recover from them.

Im currently playing world of warcraft  £10 a month and you spend hours just mining or collecting things to sell. I havd found online gaming helps I used to play fifa for hours then. You can find things to occupy your mind just need to find what you like. Books are a good one too but not audiobooks  as your hands are still free to gamble.

I’ve heard there’s a thing called pornhub apparently it can distract one from gambling but there may be a risk of going blind ;P.

No but seriously hope things get better for you and you find an interest that replaces the urge to gamble. 🙂
