I have no will power and no one I can talk about it with. I have to stay away from these online casino games. It’s put me in the poor house! I need help
Hi Theresa
If I may suggest find some counseling and a Gamblers Anonymous meeting where you will find people who understand you and that
you can talk to and share your thoughts and feelings.
And there is a free app that you can put on your phone and computer that won’t let you visit gambling sites.
Wishing you well

Description of Services
BetBlocker is a free tool to help you control your gambling. Install it on as many devices as you like and you can block yourself from accessing over 4300 gambling websites. You can select how long you want to be blocked for.
Please remember that once the tool is activated you cannot remove the restrictions until your selected restriction length has expired.
BetBlocker also has a Parental Controls setting that allows you to switch the tool on and off via a password so that parents can stop their children accessing gambling services (and other sites!!)
Hi Teresa
You are not alone In your quest to stop gambling. If as Ken mentioned bet blocker doesn’t work. I couldn’t get it to work on my phone others here have mentioned this also. I’m not sure why if possibly I was doing something wrong. Gamban for approximately $50 a year or a few dollars a month works really well. You may need to read up on setting. Gamban blocks ads for gambling also.
A person needs additional help I feel possibly Counciling , ga meetings.
It took myself quite sometime to stay stopped.
Self exclusion or as Ken mentioned a bet blocker is the best to stay away from online gambling. That was my problem and I’m so happy I’m not spending money there anymore. ❤️
Hello Theresa, you do have the will power, its the addiction telling you otherwise. Coming from someone who is a problem gambler with sports betting online, dont use betblocker! It completely stopped my phone from being able to connect to the internet. I know Gamban costs a bit of money buy it works. The gambler in me was telling myself that i cant afford a 50 dollar app yet i would gamble 200 on 1 game…youre not alone, this community is very supportive. Sending love and strength your way.
