Just posted an almost identical story buddy. Absolutely brutal how you can do so well for so long and then it can be undone in one day/night.

 

As I’ve said in my post, get in contact with your bank mate and make them stop all future gambling transactions incase Gamban etc miss out a rogue casino.

 

keep your chin up, you done great for two years which means you can do it again. Try not let this feeling impact your family life, you are right to be gutted this morning same as me but try and draw a line under it. Save this date in your phone and start again. Remind yourself when you’ve got to a week, then a month and whatever other milestone that feels good.

 

You can do it mate, there’s always light at the end of the tunnel, may seem far away just now but you’ll get there.

 

Good luck

Crazy how easy it is to throw away all the good work! These casinos should be banned in this country if they won’t sign up to gamstop, saying that its still our fault!

Last time I had a plan, I knew how many hours I needed to work and how much I needed to pay back each month. At the moment I can’t make a plan, everythings up in the air!

Good luck to you aswell mate, it just proves how our demons never really go away!

Keep battling them ?

Haha don’t think my blood pressure could cope ?, I’ll just keep inspecting as a hobby ?

I dont think Bandit or Seedy would mind me calling the Death Threat keyboard warriors Cunts! ?

I was mainly talking about the previous disagreement in the thread and even although I agree with u 100% I hate that word!

If my father ever heard me say that word or seen me type it then I would have some seriously sore testicles, even although he’s in his 60’s lol!

JB….. unpredictable….never ?!

All these guys made the forum for me, there are still a few left on here, Haz etc that keep the conversation flowing but alot less than a year ago!

I can’t help think that online slots, streamers, video makers and the like are fading away and with casinos and YT making it more difficult we may be on a slippery slope into a world with no bandit content….oh no ?

That’s fantastic, well done! Really nice to hear a positive story ? I have to say from my own experience the first few weeks are very, very difficult, the itch to gamble is everywhere and seems overwhelming. But it’s also amazing how quickly that urge fades after even a month of not doing it. Finances repair in time and our relationships with others are more valuable than any win.

U r so right argyl the first month or so I must have tried over 50 new casinos desperately trying to get my fix!

I’m so glad I didn’t go back to the old fobt days but I realised a long time ago that putting £1000 in to win £500 is crazy……unfortunately it took me far to long to realise!

Thanks kerr001 I’ve never even heard of an IVA! Again though I am very wary of going down the bankruptcy/insolvency route or anything that will damage my slowly improving credit score.

Because my family don’t know the true figure of my debt and the fact that we hope to move house when we can afford to going down this route would delay things further!

I was hoping that it wouldn’t be to difficult to consolidate my debt, half my gambling outgoings from £900 to around £500 giving me a chance to take a lower paying job and escape this job I hate!

I am so glad I am signed up to Gamstop as the urge to deposit and try and get a big win to dig me out the very hole I dug myself into at the moment is almost unbearable!
