I don’t want to tell family if I can help it, it’s embarrassing enough as it it and I only really have my parents that I could ask and they have their own problems at the minute.

I think I should be able to put off the majority of my bills till I next get paid and I think I’m going to sell my phone. I’ll hopefully get £200-£300 for it which should hopefully see me through the month.

thank you for your advice

Thank you Davey. I’ve not signed up to Gamstop yet, but will definitely do this today. My biggest worry is how I’m going to get through this month. I still have bills that need paying and cannot even afford to renew my travel pass to get to work. I will have to get a weekly pass with the money I have left, but beyond that I don’t know what I’ll do.

My credit card is maxed out too as a result of my gambling problem

I have a decent job and know I shouldn’t be in this position. I just feel so sick with worry and do not know what to do

Hi guys, I don’t really know where to start with this but I think I’ve now finally realised that I have a problem and addiction with gambling.

Im now 36 and gambled for as long as I can remember on sports betting and slots both online and in bookies. Some good times but mostly bad.

ive finally had to come to terms with this as I got paid Friday and now have £40 left to last me for the next month. 
I don’t know what to do. I’ve deleted all betting apps from my phone and I know I drastically need to do something about this, but I don’t know where to start and I don’t know how I’m going to get through the next month.

Yes I know I’ve been silly and only got myself to blame, but I hope that I can get through this but know I need help
