Not feeling the best myself. So many things one after the other. And not the riots. Life just gets harder and harder.

When we have a gambling win, the brain releases a feel-good chemical called dopamine. But when we gamble often, our brain gets used to the dopamine, which makes that winning feeling difficult to achieve. Consequently, we may have to gamble more and more to feel the same level of pleasure.

Yes. That makes sense.

Thank you the op is not alone as this effort many people.

One tip I would give to the op is take most of the money out of your bank account and keep it with you this will takeaway the means to gamble online of csuse if you need money in your account to pay for things you can use a post off free of charge to deposit.

Addiction isn't easy to get out of.
You're going to have relapses. But never give up.

This.

I'm absolutely terrible at this sort of thing.

Me and emotions, I try to help if I can, but I am useless on Mental Health discussions.

Well done to Glenn though for finding a possible solution for Kate.

I don't think that you're an arsehole Glenn.

I don't always agree with everything that you say, but I believe that you're a decent guy.

So, so sorry to see you're struggling Kate.

I too struggle with depression and poor MH and at the moment it's horrendous (money worries here too also) but I'm hoping for better days if I just plod on.

Always here to chat. Hope things improve for you very soon. xx

That's good to hear.

It's good to vent out your problems sometimes.

Yes I think a lot of people are struggling with mental health these days.
And what's going on these days doesn't help at all. The worrying is never ending.

There are a lot of Self help groups out there Kate...you interact well with people so I think these groups will be good for you to bounce off people. There is so much of this at the moment regarding depression and Mental Health. We have been to hell and back these last 3 months with my son...but he has finally got the help he needs and it has turned his life around.
