Over the Xmas period I play a lot of computer games and today have played compulsively. I play in the same way as I gambled. No drinks or food in that time. It is now 9.35 pm and have been playing since about 2. Have spent around 200 quid. Crazy but in some way I have been triggered. May be the emails from the suspended sites, around 6 of them.
Still no gambling but this is as close as it gets. Not huge damage but a waste. I will explore this in my next outreach session as play computer games as compulsively as when I was gambling. Maybe I am bored but I was meant to go out today shopping and didn’t.
