      My name is Mark. I’m 21 and sadly I’ve been gambling for a few years. The latest year has been Really bad. I had a break for like 3 months at a point, Where i managed to save up like 10k, Which is a lot for me since i wanna move out and all that, but i relapsed and managed to lose it all in a few days. Since then, i’ve literally gambled Every single cent i have whenever i Get access to money. I Really wanna quit this, since i dont wanna fuck up my life and Get an insane debt already at 21. I dont know What im hoping to achieve with this post, but Maybe some success stories Or tips for me before its too late? Have a good day

      Hello and thanks for starting a thread in the Gambling Therapy forums. By posting to the forums you’re allowing the diverse and caring Gambling Therapy community to help support you through the difficulties you’re facing.

      This may well be a tough time for you – particularly if you’re new to recovery, so we encourage you to post here as often as you need to, as well as making use of the online groups and the live advice helpline if you’d like some one-to-one support. We’re all in this together! If you’re a new member, you are warmly invited to join Charles in one of the New Members Practical Advice groups (Mondays at 21:00 UK Time and Thursdays at 19:00 UK Time).

      The forum is a great place to share your experiences in a safe, supportive and accepting environment. By writing it all down you can start to build a record of your progress that you can look back on – particularly useful if you’re ever feeling stuck. Share as much or as little as you like – but you’re encouraged to stick to keeping to just one thread in this forum – so people know where to find you to check in on your progress or to share something with you.

      The Gambling Therapy staff team don’t generally post to the forums as it is a peer support area of the site – so we’ll hand you over to the community from here.

      Take care,

      The Gambling Therapy Team

      PS. Please take a moment to review our privacy policy and terms and conditions so you know how it all works.
