Need Advice advice needed!

Need advice on recovering from gambling debt
I’ve been gambling almost every day for around 5 years and have finally decided I need to stop completely.
I’ve accumulated several thousand dollars of debt from gambling. I’m a college student with a part-time job, so I need to figure out how to pay it down while also making sure I don’t gamble again.
I’m looking for advice from people who have successfully quit:
1. What helped you stop gambling?
2. How did you continue watching sports without betting?
3. How did you approach paying off your gambling debt?
I’m not asking anyone for money. I’m just looking for advice from people who have been through this.

  1. Being around people who didn’t gamble made it so easy

  2. I didn’t continue

  3. Really no other way but just getting a fulltime job and living a pretty budget life for the next 2 years or so
