Hey @routlem
By the sounds of it, you’d realised you had a problem in 2019 after binning your life savings and threw yourself on Gamstop, first of all get yourself back on that!
All I can suggest is to echo what others and say that there’s always another option than the dark thoughts. Get the Samaritans on the phone, I think you can even text them if you don’t want to talk.
The NHS option that bandit suggested is amazing if you can get yourself onto it, give them a call and see if you can!
Keep in touch on here when you can, or if you want to talk privately away from the forum (you might find the gambling chatter difficult) and then I can relay to the forum how you’re doing. I’m always about on the hellsite that is twitter @xbobmad
