Gambling addiction in general: Gambling addiction online ***bad thoughts***

Hello to all.

I am now so far at the end, that I would like to be admitted myself.
I am addicted to gambling for 2 years, it all started with panic attacks and severe depression. To stop all this I played online in casinos it became from time to time more money.

My world revolved around gambling, trying to pay my debts with the wins.
I got entangled in lies, sold things to get money. I totally lost reality. I am a mother of 2 children and have a wonderful husband who does everything for me. But I have always felt alone.

A week ago the thought came to me to put an end to my life. Get out of all this crap. When it comes out I am just alone too.

Fortunately, I got away from it quickly and looked on the Internet . then found a clinic that would take me immediately.

Now I'm afraid to tell everything to my family, the walk to the clinic is next week. With appointment

if you ask me, telling your family everything is 100% the easiest solution
they will understand...because they love you!
and now pull yourself together damn you have two children who need you.
that you next week already have the opportunity to go to therapy is super...
the sooner you get help the sooner you will feel better again

keep your head up...good luck

Hey Mama1987,

you can be proud of yourself first and foremost. Opening up like this and telling about your suicidal thoughts takes courage and greatness. Even if you do it semi-anonymously on the internet. Hats off!
Very important: don't do it. There are other ways to deal with it. And you are doing it now.
You already have an appointment at the clinic, which is great. If you don't want to tell your family, you're just not ready. That's not a problem. Just bring it up during your stay at the clinic. They will help you and encourage you.

I also had a problem once where I only saw suicide as a way out. I carried this around with me for several years and also kept it from my family because I was afraid to tell them. At some point I unpacked the matter and it helped me tremendously. Family is usually understanding and helpful. They know you and see that you are suffering. At least that's what I assume, because I don't know you.

Try to concentrate on something else until your visit to the clinic. Write a diary and keep your thoughts, that will also make it easier. Be honest with the people at the clinic and don't leave anything out. Your family will get to it when you're ready. And then you'll be out of the mire sooner than you know.

Good luck

Hello,

i also have 2 children and play online for 3 years. Sometimes I took a break, sometimes I continued playing and now I put a point. Be glad you have a wonderful husband. Mine is an asshole... He played since we were married. Every day he was out, every weekend he was out. He didn't throw around a lot of money, but we didn't have any social contact. He has no friends either. I still sit at home on weekends and he goes out to make bets. Yes, he can't say openly that he goes to casino. Why did I start with online casino, because I was bored at home. He also didn't do his driver's license just before the theory test. I had to take care of everything and and finally I decided not to gamble anymore and save money after that my husband gets ass kicked. Be strong your children need you. Start knitting or crocheting that helps to some extent. Wish you much strength!

Well... What one may read here so, it reminds very much of a help wanted forum.... And these comments, could not be better evaluated by self-proclaimed hobby psychologists and abkommandiert. Too bad, and also kind of sad. Well
