Hi. My name is Danny. first thing i can say to you, is tell your family/closest people to you. This brings it all out in the open you can talk about how you feel, and you will guaranteed start to feel better. They will not abandon you..i promise. They probably know something is wrong already and will just be glad that your trying to get help You then need to find your nearest G.A meeting. Where are you from? The last time i gambled was July 27th 2009. My family knew everything. The next day i went to a g.a class and have been going every week since. It is now 9 months today since i have gambled, it hasn't been easy but i now lead a normal life, the most important element is to not stop going g.a. otherwise you will gamble again. If you go g.a. you will build relationships back up with your family, friends and girlfriend. Get rid of debts and be able to buy things for yourself, you will start to enjoy life and enjoy being you again. P.S i started when i was at college, and then i went to university and had to leave half way through my 1st year because of gambling. Late nite casino's and not going lectures hey. i know how u feel. write back, i am willing to give any advice i can
