Hi Nelyn welcome to the forums. You sound like your ready and that’s the first step to quitting any addiction. The best thing that worked for me when I started my recovery was I found a counselor that specialized in gambling addiction and trauma. I also have been involved in 12 step groups since I was younger so I had a sponsor and support from other addicts with other addictions. The connection with other like minded individuals is probably the only thing that’s ever helped me with any addiction I’ve ever had. People that understand how to fight it and what needs to be done to stay abstinent. It’s a hard road but it does start to get better I can promise that.
