I started gambling again.

Magical_thoughts profile image

Hi everyone. After 2 years due to the benefit of gambling of casinos being closed. I went back to gambling. I've lost everything. And Im getting anxious as I am not working due to illness. Which is a factor that I went back to it. But also the main reason I went back to gambling is because I live in a house share. With people who are negative and toxic. And I don't feel comfortable in a home where I am renting. Which should be my home. The landlord is nice. But it's this one tenant turning others against me.

I just want a normal life. I have no money to go back to gambling and am getting withdrawl symptoms in addition to the pain of losing all my hard earnt savings.

I just don't know what to do. I feel like at the lowest point in life.

Are there gambler anonymous meetings you could attend?

Oh, It sounds like a toxic situation. Gambling is not a good solution, perhaps a move to a less toxic place might help, if you can save enough . Gambler's Anonymous might be able to introduce you to a group.

Cheers, Midori
