My name is Alex, and I am reaching out for support as I work to recover from a gambling addiction that has deeply affected my life and the lives of those around me. Over time, my addiction led me to make choices that hurt friends, family, and colleagues—I took money under false pretenses, which caused financial hardship for people who trusted me. As a result, I have lost my car, my home, my job, and many important relationships. My professional reputation has also suffered, making it even harder to get back on my feet.
I have taken responsibility for my actions and have come clean to everyone involved. I am now attending gambling therapy and support meetings, and I have legal representation to help me navigate the consequences of my actions. I am committed to making restitution to those I have hurt and have taken steps to prevent myself from gambling again, including blocking myself from casinos. The funds raised will go toward therapy, legal costs, personal expenses, and helping those I have wronged. Any support will help me continue my recovery, rebuild trust, and work toward a stable future.
