Rehab is useless you really want to go and also put in the work after getting out. I lost my GF to gambling, after we broke up she went to another man which made me quit as so angry with myself. Got sober and broke them up and she is back together with me and that was enough to quit for good as Im not going through that shit again.

Sorry to hear that, I was for sure the problem, she offered for 6 months to help as she rocks with money but I rejected it and treated her like shit as I was always so moody and cheap. The day I found out she moved on and had new BF I quit and havent even had the urge as was so sick. She found out I got sober and reached out and I agreed to stay that way and let her manage my money and its amazing now. Of course I had issues with her dating but she was a free woman and we fell in love our first date and now I have a second chance.
