      Hi

      I’m new although have been an addict for around 8ish years.

      I do okay sometimes weeks /months years and then I’m back to day 1 again.

      I keep it a secret from everyone, I sometimes tell someone what I done a month or two later.

      I hide it from my husband aswell. It’s not great and it’s stressful.

      Always at night time I do it, I already have gamstop but found a new way to get on sites. I don’t know what else I can do.

      I had saved several grand up and literally just spunked it all tonight, I’m absolutely gutted actually. As I didn’t think I had cleared my account. As most had gone I thought oh well what’s another 500!!!

      Madness when you sit and read it. Money that could have paid for my family holiday, a new car just gone instantly. I’m so angry at myself.
