Ever been in that self-destructive cycle of needing that win to make up for, and cover up all the stupid, mindless losses? Ever felt like you have to keep going?

You feel so sure that any minute now, youll get that big win you so desperately need and deserve. But it doesnt happen. So you throw more money after bad. You still dont win, so you try again and again, and again

And you so deserve a bit of luck. Just for once, to have some money that you havent had to work your balls off for. That the tax man hasnt already helped himself to. That the bills havent already wiped out. Some relief from the endless struggle to keep on top.

But its just an illusion. And sooner or later were forced back to reality and the consequences of having lost yet again

When I started gambling, it seemed harmless enough, but I have to admit, over time its got more and more out of hand. When I stopped to think how the picture would look in another 10 years time, I felt physically sick. I imagined losing my house, my wife, my children, my job Friends will have long left the scene

Im not making a mountain out of a mole hill. Its what happens to people who dont know how to stop online gambling or any sort of gambling, come to that. There was no reason to suppose my future would be any different. I was already out of control. My internet gambling addiction was a reality. I was on my way.

And thats when I knew I had to do something about it.

Fortunately for me, a friend (yes, Ive still got them) pointed me towards Sounds Positives website. And there I found their self-help Stop Gambling product. Sounds Positive, based in Henley on Thames, says that it uses NLP, EFT and hypnotherapy for gambling addiction and to help people help themselves. Well, I had nothing to lose, did I?

And I couldnt believe the difference it made. I just dont gamble any more. I really am a changed man. I shudder to think how much money I wasted. Nor will I take my family for granted again. What would have happened to them if I hadnt got treatment for gambling? Doesnt bear thinking about.

Looking at the information on Sounds Positives website started me looking at why we like to gamble so much and why for so many of us it becomes a destructive lifestyle we cant control.

And I came to the conclusion that there was no point in beating myself up about what Id done and what I couldnt change. But I also realised that I could decide what happened next and that was a real turn-around for me and something I got from Stop Gambling.

Stop Gambling consists of 2 audio tracks and also written material (all instantly downloadable from the Sounds Positive website) which use hypnotherapy, EFT and NLP to help you create a new, healthy life. Sounds Positives technology does all the work for you. All you have to do is relax.

Now I get very angry at betting companies taking advantage of people like you and me. I lost a lot of money. But thats all I lost, thank God. Ive still got my family and my job.

Youve got to look ahead and see what life youre creating for yourself and those you love. And if you cant stop on your own, then get Stop Gambling. Maybe, for you too, thats all you need for a new future.
