I made this thread a few days ago but I had forgot to log in lol, I’m going on gamban for a while now after yesterday
Only you know the best thing to do. Whatever you do we will back you. If you feel like a bash on the slots just have a rant on here instead. ?
00You missed a bit at the end there. Start playing there again and ” start winning again ” ?
00Dune’s purpose of been on the forum was solely to stop himself on the fobts. When the laws changed 1st April he didn’t post for 2 weeks. He didn’t need the forum anymore and he used the forum to stop himself playing roulette on fobts. Tbh i don’t think he actually had a major problem with the high stakes on the videos. I think this was more of an excuse to leave. Anyway whatever really.
00I got paid last night and I’ve got nothing left a lot was bills and stuff etc but some of them bills are loan repayments caused by gambling tbh I had a little go last night on millionaire on 60p got 4 bonuses from £100 2 donked on the first gamble 81%+83% and one paid a whopping 93p and the other paid £4.56 absolute crap so we all know where that ended on the balance big fat 0 now I’ve basically got fuck all left, @winningbird I’ve applied for 2 loans this morning through pure worry and both them declined as well so I’m in the same boat haha it’s not funny but I’d rather laugh than cry!
That’s shit mate. Sounds like there’s a few of us not doing very well at the minute. Hope things get better for you somehow.
00Ok, now I feel sick
just applied for 3 loans and got rejected for them all
. I can’t tell my other half, he will go so mad and I can’t put my daughter through seeing that.. I’d rather just not tell him and let him have the face on from the last time I annoyed him. It’s been ages since I’ve felt like this, it’s so frustrating
That makes two of us cos if i hadn’t been such a fuckin idiot on Wednesday losing nearly £800 i could of easily helped you. ?
11I think I used all my charm on him when we first got together, he’s sick of me now haha. He’s a good one, I just think he’s supported me through everything and now 10 years later, he’s had enough of me.
I have a really addictive personality, so I stay away from drugs these days. Eating crap is my way of dealing with these moods, but then again I still can’t eat just 1 chocolate, I eat the full box or bar Haha. I honestly don’t know how I’m not like a whale with how much I eat.
I’ve been through some right shit times but never had to deal with anything as difficult to beat as gambling. Just thought about it all and it sounds so pathetic. How can gambling be harder to get over than so and so..
How can gambling make you feel like such a shit person? Shit parent, partner, daughter/son, sibling? My daughter just asked if I can take her to a play area today and I’ve had to say no. Stupid mummy spent the money. Now she will have to suffer because of my stupidity.
Sorry if that made no sense, I just had to get it out of my head before I went mad.
It’s not pathetic we’re just human. I know it’s a cliche and we’ve been there but we have. It’s an awful sickening feeling which btw does go away as you know. I know I’ll never stop after 30 plus years. I hope the coming days gets better for you and I’m sure they will. ?
11Sorry to hear this Haz. I’ve never been in this situation personally, where the person in question is someone close to me, so I don’t have much advice to offer outside of what has already been offered!
You’ve had problems yourself, and you know this person better than anyone, it sounds to me like you’re the one best placed to help her. What works, or has worked for you?
Hope you both get past this. All the best!
Thanks mate. What works is staying away from the town centre. We live in a village about 7 miles away and tbh don’t really have any need to go into town. Sometimes we need e cig stuff on a Saturday then 5 hours later it’s going home time so recently I’ve been going on my way to work to stop the need to go at the weekend. It’s a bit shit really cos it can stop me putting some bets on on a Saturday cos i can happily take £50 to town and leave cards at home. Thing was i gave her £500 of my book of dead winnings and i think it was blowing a massive hole in her pocket. We’ve always shared if we won and I’m a nightmare at lying and can’t keep things to myself lol. The only good part nowadays is she knows if she loses i won’t give her money to gamble with.
00He went at a similar time to mr b and dune. It was mainly about the high stakes he didn’t agree with. I actually enjoyed his controversial posts but never mind. I suppose that’s what happens on a forum people come and go all the time.
00Been up since 2am now and resorted to eating as much chocolate as I can, while I try to think of an excuse why I gambled it all when I could have done with it today of all days because now my daughter is off for a week for the holidays. I have to laugh or I’ll cry so excuse the use of these laughing emoji things. It makes me feel better.
Anyone considering gambling today who knows they have a problem, struggles to admit they have a problem, or just cant control the spending, please stay away from gambling today. I have a feeling it’s going to be a hard day for us.
I think we’re all having one of them week’s. It’s a bit crazy to read all these posts at a similar time. Can you just use that Sheffield charm and sweet talk him round like my missus does with me ?. Life of a gambler and all that eh. Don’t beat yourself up though we’ve all done it. Don’t know if we’ve all done the chocolate thing though. I suppose it was better than getting pissed and having a sore head this morning ?. If it’s a break you need then take one. He will be fine I’m sure. I say things in the heat of the moment i don’t mean. We all do it. You’ve given everyone so much great advice on here lately so it’s only fair you get some in return lol. I’m sure you have beaten bigger problems than this. Good luck today keep us posted how the day goes. x
01I can relate more than most as my gambling addiction has been spiralling out of control lately, literally got paid on the 15th and had around £500 spare after paying bills and I’ve blown through the lot in less than a week, had a slight recovery on Venture which I proceeded to go through (£320) the same day I received it. Ive also been smoking weed like its going out of fashion. So now I’m broke till next month but I’ve got my bills paid and food in the cupboard just nothing left for having fun with. But that’s my doing I can deal with that.
I went through a bad break up over a year ago and that’s when things started to get out of control the more I think about it the more I try to numb myself with marijuana and booze and then almost like I’m trying to punish myself ill go and blow a wad on gambling. Its got to the point now where I’ve alienated myself from my all my friends and sadly gambling has become my life, when I don’t have money I’m constantly checking for free spins and getting agitated knowing I can’t gamble till next pay day. I’ve also borrowed money off my folks and my brother giving some bullshit reason so I can have another flutter which makes me feel like an utter cunt and then means I have less next month so the cycle of borrowing and paying back continues… I always pay them back mind you but that’s besides the point.
On top of that after the break up last year I was at my actual worst: in a state of deep depression and not caring about life I took out 6k worth of payday loans and I still haven’t paid them back yet. I’m not in the best place at the moment and really don’t care what happens to me so Ive stopped my DMP plan months ago and have been ignoring the loan companies ever since.
I know the best thing for me is to sign up to gamban but it’s so hard given that my life has been nothing but gambling for the past year. When I’m feeling low its like the rush from a gamble is the only thing that brings me excitement and a bit of joy anymore and I realise how pathetic that sounds.
But I’ve had an addictive personality since I was young it’s always been one thing or another but nothing has come close to the grip gambling has over me.
I hope you manage to conquer your demons and stay strong, brother. I probably wouldn’t have posted this if you hadn’t opened up in this post.
Shit mate you’ve got some balls putting that up. Fair play to you. It’s certainly not pathetic to mention the buzz of gambling. It’s what we live for sometimes. I will say this though gamstop was the best thing i ever did. It took me literally 60 seconds to do it. It’s the relief more than anything. You’d be amazed once the opportunity is taken away the urge decreases massively. You’d think you would go mad not been able to play. It’s not true. I won’t say it’s easy straight away but in no time you don’t even think about it. I came off gamstop and within a week I’m back on it for a year this time. I don’t miss them. Just try and remember what you did when you were single and didn’t play slots. When you get paid instead of playing online get your mates rang up and get yourself out. Good luck with whatever you decide to do. We’re always here ?
00Unfortunately we do understand mate as most of us have been there. For once I’m a bit stuck what to say other than i feel for you i really do. I could preach to you about gamstop or gamban but I’m not cos i know that’s your decision and that wont help you today. I don’t know the exact ins and outs of your past only what you’ve put on here and one thing i will say is don’t beat yourself up. You have come along way from your past so you should be proud of that. Good luck and you know were always on here.
01I am going to self exclude. Tbh i hate the place it’s shit. Don’t even like or enjoy the slots. I’m barred from bingo anyway ( my choice) so that’s my next step. Hopefully then things will improve. Thank you ?
