Hi people I'm at the moment three days off the punt. Just wanted to stress the importance of keeping a positive mindset while trying to quit. I know this can't help with the thousands lost or all the thrills you might have had along the way but it is certainly an important peice in the path to recovery. Might sound silly but just keep repeating in your head 'I can and I will quit this addiction'. As soon as you give in an inch such as saying 'whats the point' or 'I've relapsed so many times before' or 'I don't think I can do it' thats when the wheels fall off. I'm convinced if I can beat gambling I really can achieve and do anything, and this is the mindset you should have also. Stay positive you can absolutely do it if I can!

Repeating in mind will not work . Cutting access to money will work
Give handling of money to your mom and wife , tell them that whatever happens don’t give you big money , and even if give then for personal expenses ( tell them to buy for you too ) , use cash , close all your bank accounts and credit card. You can’t gamble cash.
