    6 Days in and struggling. VIP at casino sending me thousands of dollars to play .I have bet blocker on my pc but cannot get it on my phone. They are trying to help but.. Going to my first meeting tomorrow. Happy Valentines Day to all. Like John said All you need is love. Thank you all for the support and God or your Higher Power Bless you.

    • I decided to put bet blocker on my phone it’s an iPhone I tried going to a site too see if it’s working it’s not. I’m not sure why either. If you figure it out let me know. If I figure it out I’ll pass along what I did. Odd a person would think something like that shouldn’t be too difficult

      • Can you do “self exclusion” on the specific sites that you gamble on? That is the only reason I am not gambling anymore. Gambling on my phone was just too easy. Ugh..

        • Hi thank you for your reply for the last couple of months I have been able to stay away. If I slip my plan is to self exclude myself. Thank you for your care!

    cannot get bet blocker to work completely. not at all on my android phone.. any ideas?

    • I’m not sure hopefully someone here knows. I know with iPhone your parent control maybe it’s called something else needs to be on. Try googling it maybe. I’m sure someone here will know what you need too do.

    Hello All. Thank you for this forum. 1st time here-long time gambling problem. Found a meeting near by and going to try the program for the 1st time. I’ve taken a mortgage for the 3rd time on our home due to my online gambling. Feeling ashamed, guilty, stupid and actually physically sick. I know I am not alone. Thank you.

    • Welcome Michael
      Glad you are reaching and have found a meeting.
      Tougher to stop on your own but it can be done.
      When I crashed the bank was about to take my home.
      20 years One Day At A Time I still have my family and
      recently paid off my home. So miracles can happen.
      Keep coming back.
