From people who came through it
“If you're at the start of this, I won't pretend it's easy. The first few months were the worst of my life. But I'm writing this from the other side, and some days now I forget to be sad. Check what benefits you can get. I'd been missing out on loads. Go slowly.”
Care worker in Bogotá · been through gambling problems“Dear stranger, i was where you are this time last year. Back then it was chasing losses. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. From someone who gets it.”
blue.lake2001 · been through gambling problems“For anyone new to this: I've been there. For me it was in 2023. I remember betting apps on my phone at 3am like it was yesterday. I laugh properly again. It doesn't stay this heavy. Be gentle with yourself.”
fatimawinter · been through gambling problems“I was in the same place this time last year. The worst part was betting apps on my phone at 3am. This year I did a 5k, slowly. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. Hang on.”
