The impact of a person's #gambling problem on loved ones can be absolutely devastating. As one person said to me, "the blast radius of gambling addiction is very wide".

Today is the first day in the rest of my life.I did the lot yesterday again. 23/12/2019 will be my last ever mistake. I feel gutted I let myself down, again. If I’m not saying I’m 365 days clean this time next year I’ll be dead. Harsh reality of it I guess! Anyhow, merry Xmas 😌

Will be on @gbayfm around 9:20 this morning, discussing the proposed 333-fold increase in #gambling machine stakes.
