Sorry to bump the thread but mate you have to find another interest to replace your gambling mindset.A gambling mind is bored and needs some excitement and challenge.
Be a winner not a loser.
Its easy to say now while you feeling so low that you are going to give up gambling but as soon as the mind relaxes a bit the pressure will come back ten fold to have another bet.
Get some new friends and take up another interest.
Otherwise you are kidding yourself and you are going to feel even worse when start another gambing binge.
Theres a great song by an Australian band, The Whiltlams called "Blow up the Pokies".Try to get a copy.It really helped me see what my life had truly become when I couldn't keep away from the horses.
Also Give all your credit cards and keycards to a close friend and let them take care of your finances for a few months.Ask them to pay all your bills and to give you an allowance every day.
