After battling with gambling addiction, months in rehabilitation and a humongous debt to repay towards friends, family, banks etc. I've come a long way and seen what truly the gambling industry can inflict on individuals. The pain, the loneliness, the total hopelessness is something not many addictions can inflict upon you. Six months since my full year in rehabilitation has ended I feel more human to say. I don't feel like a dead wight on the world but unfortunately the journey back is long and hard one. The loneliness is still present alongside the desperation that the choices and sins of the past have already determined my future to one without hope, without a place and in debt for a lifetime without no way out.After achieving to cut my debt down to 50% from what it was, I have come here, in great shame to be honest, to request your help. The situation in my country does not help my case, as jobs are well underpaying and essential needs alongside the general cost of living is through the roof. I am ashamed of myself and truly in difficult spot so if anyone is willing to donate even a single penny or a cent, it would mean the world truly. I hope whoever reads this is in a great place and never fell down the path I did. Life is truly wonderful and I would be glad if anyone could help me cherish it once again.
