Got an unexpected payrise where I’m earning a lot more than usual then started gambling, I’m saving money still but anything left in my bank is gone , is was 1600 down in 3 days then won back nearly 1300 only to lose it all again in one morning. I then applied gamstop after I gambled a weeks rent that was set a side with no second thoughts. So strange because I’m very tight with my money but this has seemed to take over my life in a matter of weeks. This is just casino games I was a frequent sports gambler but it was no more than £10 £20 a week. Does this sound like I’m addicted to gambling as I’m unsure if it’s just a phase or is this relatable to gambling addicts ? Thanks
