    Hello! I am new here and struggling to accept and fully admit to myself that I have a gambling problem. I will play slots online until my bank accounts are empty. I recently gave up a huge sum of winnings because I just could not stop pressing spin. It’s out of control and I feel so much guilt and shame for not being able to stop playing when I know I’m on my last dollar. I recently gave up the opportunity to keep $10,000 in winnings and that was when something in me clicked that this has become a huge problem and disordered thinking. I’ve appreciated reading others posts here and having people to relate to.

    • I have the same problem I’m not in trouble yet but if I keep going I will be

      • Me too. Depression and hopelessness has set in. I am ashamed and feel worthless. Gambling made me feel good temporarily. I have stopped for 2 weeks and am working with a professional on my depression. I have to keep asking for help everyday from my higher power. Hang in there.
