Im 26 years old, been gambling for 8-9 years. I has been a problem for a long time and Im now in all sorts of debt. Borrowed ay too much and have been unable to pay it back.
I want to stop, just dont see how to. I have the most beautiful girlfriend on the planet and a son of 9 months who is my world. I thought the birth of my boy would help me stop. But it hasn't.
My girlfriend knows its a problem and doesn't like seeing me the way i get after losing or if i cant have a bet. Its crushing my insides, her insides and everyone around me.
She has now told me she cant take no more and I cant lose her or I fear the worst for me.
Can anyone give me advice on what the best wy forward is for me as I need to stop before its too late. People around dont seem to understand how hard it is to just stop, or cut down.
I have always been worried about going to meetings as Ive always thought 'what can someone tell me that i dont already know?' 'How can someone telling me they've lost loads stop me? thats their business'
Please someone give me some advice before my world falls apart.
