Congratulations Lynn on day 2! You’ve got this!
I totally know where you’re coming from. I didn’t get into online gambling until the pandemic started in 2020. At first it was a way to pass time and I was very careful with spending. I hit big that year and paid our house taxes with it. That was a huge adrenaline rush and I wanted more. Now I’m h…[Read more] -

Congratulations Cpart! You are inspiring me big time! I know it’s a freeing feeling and I look forward to experiencing that. I’ve blown so much money, including running CCs up too. The wins were definitely highs but I realized today there are more lows than high times with gambling. I look forward to seeing more money in my accounts from sav…[Read more]

Thank you Serenity! I agree stopping the gambling is definitely not easy but with support we’ll succeed.
I stopped last year and stayed away for a bit but went right back. This time though I know I can do it and this is the first I openly admitted to having the addiction so it’s a major step for me.
I also play the Skillz games but I play the pra…[Read more] -

Community 1 years, 1 months agoI’m here to finally admit I have an addiction to online gambling and to get the help & support I need to quit self sabotage, as I do realize that’s what it is. I know intellectually it is an addiction, I know the high is getting that next win, and I know it’s a problem which weakens my self discipline.
To start my journey I’ve set gamblin…[Read more]-
Hi Sher, welcome! And congrats on taking the massive first step by openly talking about the impact gambling has had on you. Im 39 and i had hidden my addiction to sports betting for about 20 years. It unfortunately took a suicide attempt and ending up in the hospital to finally open up about my behavior. Id highly recommend installing Gamban app…[Read more]

I’m learning about Gamban from you – thank you for sharing!!!!

I hope it can help. I learned about it from my addictionscouncillor. I will admit after a month of it on my phone i went out and bought a tablet and hid it for 6 months. Last Saturday i came clean with my partner and family. I got rid of it and my last bet was last Saturday at 4pm. I never wouldve willingly admitted to this, EVER. This time feels…[Read more]

Sher good for you our journey to stop sounds similar. The skillz games offer some competitive or for me self challenging to improve fun games. I think it’s possible they could cause a problem but I don’t think like slots. I’ve played for several years and it hasn’t been a problem.
Another day free ❤️
