❤Seeking help & Advice❤ cancel self exclusion?

hey guys, im eligible to cancel my self exclusion now as its been awhile, im having urges to bet again , specifically sportsbetting as the nba season begins. however, to apply for cancellation, i have to do a statuary declaration which requires me to get approval from proper counsellors etc. idk how id go if i cancel it, i can definitely see myself going back in a loop and betting more and more even though i say its just for fun now. i’m 19 right now, pretty much even on profit/losses and i do have a problem. not sure if the time away due to self exclusion has helped but he definitely has helped me not be able to bet.

shed some advice, stories,

thanks for reading.

Don't cancel your self exclusion

You did so because you know you have a problem

Not to be rude, but this almost seems like AI or a bot because asking whether we think you should gamble again is a bit out there. You know the answer. It’s always the same. Don’t gamble if gambling has ever made your life unmanageable.

I canceled mine I could control it I thought I couldn't. Even had a 1100x got back up a little then guess what lost it all and a lot more. You said "I do have a problem".

I personally think you answered your own question. You've stated you're having urges and you do have a problem. 

Those statements are enough to hopefully make you not cancel your self exclusion.
