    Today is my 11th day away from gambling. Yesterday was very difficult, but with the help of my psychiatrist (online) I was able to do it. I think we should all receive this kind of help as it is needed in the process of self exclusion.

    • That’s wonderful Alexander and online therapy thank you for that information that’s another avenue of help a person can receive.
      One day at a time you will achieve what you are hoping for and good for you for wanting too turn your life around.

    • Alexander congratulations on your 10th day away from online betting! The days will become weeks then months. You got this the fact that you still visit these sites but was able to NOT DEPOSIT any money is GREAT!keep it up! Continue with keeping yourself busy with Hobby’s you enjoy doing. You got this!

    • I know its hard, i too was addicted to spirts betting. It seems like your best odds but you will NEVER finish ahead gambling, its multi billion dollar business for a free, to feed off our hard earned money. Here’s a couple tips i did. If i ever got the urge instead of depositing i would invest it or pay off some of my debts and pretend that i m…[Read more]

      • Thank you Brandon! I appreciate your response. And you’re right! That’s exactly what I’m doing I will pay off my debts and invest for the FUTURE!

    • Alexander you are doing really well. What you are doing will get you ahead. Hang in there. Gambling will only make you more broke. It’s robbed enough from all of us here.

    Day 6.. Today I feel better, I felt that I am able to communicate normally in my work for the first time in a while. Believe me all, Gambling is capable to destroy all your life -literally-. Stay away from this.. I suffered a lot even though I was a very good gambler

  • Alexander posted an update in the group Group logo of CommunityCommunity 1 years, 6 months ago

    Day 3.. I feel better than the first 2 days. Palpitations are lower, but now I feel so sad regarding my loses. I hope if I can chase at least 10% of what I gambled and give them to my wife.
    I hope everything will be better with time <3

    • For me, the chase would never end til I just surrendered to the fact it’s not coming back and if it did I’d just lose it chasing more. Always more. Here for ya my friend

    Unfortunately, we don’t have something like that in our country

  • Alexander posted an update in the group Group logo of CommunityCommunity 1 years, 6 months ago

    I gambled for 10 years in sports bets since I was in the university. I had a lot of consequences, But never like when I started working and got my own money.
    I lost all my savings, tens of thousands of dollars, and still relapse after every time I stop.
    Now I took a decision to stop 2 days ago. I hope I will have the power this time to stop FOREVER.

    • Hi Alexander
      Glad you are reaching out as many CGs never do
      Hard addiction to recover from our own so if I may suggest find a gambling support counselor and a local GA meeting.
      Easier with support

    • What Country are you in? You can get alot of support on this site. I knew that every time i slipped I would go back harder and feel crappier. I now am learning to love myself dispite my gambling addiction. It was a compulsion I never thought I could quit but i have so far for several years. I learned that I am more important than…[Read more]

    • Hi Alexander. I am very new here too. I have spent everything and left myself with a lot of debt. I’m not at the point that I’m even close to liking myself or forgiving myself but I can say that knowing I have surrendered and admitted I have a huge problem with gambling feels better than keeping it a secret and still trying to fool myself that I a…[Read more]

    • Hi Alexander,
      One thing my counsellor suggested is that when the temptation comes, write down 10 reasons why it’s a good idea not to gamble. Or 10 reasons why it’s a bad idea to gamble, however you want to frame it. I struggle with relapse too. But I’ve made improvements and while I’m not perfect I am having a better time accepting myself and…[Read more]
