Quit gambling, get into recovery and the rewards will naturally come. It won’t happen overnight but stick with it and I PROMISE that life gets better.
Thanks for watching, my name’s Phil and I’m a former gambling addict. I make videos to share my experiences of gambling and talk about my recovery, abstinence and the challenges of quitting gambling. I also tend to ramble on about anything else that comes to mind and take great pleasure in dispelling some of the most common myths around gambling.

You have a twisted sense of humour that I enjoy 😀
Loved the vid Phil, I'm a year in off the slots.. Loved how your ads were a casino and a debt relief advert lol
Everything alright Phil? Been a while mate 🙂
Come on phil been 5 days since your last videos us compulsive gamblers need you regularly
So I quit and started gambling online I lost 11k. My birthday I went to the casino went down 1k when I hit a 3k jackpot. The following week played online and won 20k. This is a sign that I need to change. I got saved this time.
I was away from the gambling world for almost 10 years then i got tricked into IT again, its hellish hard 2 quit the 2nd time over since back then i only did slots at the stores never online. But i know after this year (since i have written most of the out and in down on paper) im could have bought me a New car over the yearly sending on casinos, you speaking of d3bt i never have d3bt bec. Of the gambling but i would be better of slamming the money in a locked account. Im rambling..
Cheers Phil, I can do you a deal on business cards for your channel 😉
Peace of mind is the BEST part of quitting. Plus I find my evenings and weekends seem to last so much longer without the mindless spinning hour upon hour. Plus, strange looking at my balance without a – before the figure 😀
Hi Phil. Is there an email address that I can contact you on, because I would really love to send you a private message regarding your channel and everything you say in it and my personal experience. Great video as always!
Youre by some way more adept and more knowledgeable than the so called help out there. Trust me i know. Very good phil…….You told me off for calling you Philip a year ago🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The day I stopped piston rings on car went lol
I would say don't tell anyone until you have done it. I told no one when I was having my driving test. I told no one during the period I started to stop gambling.
Another great video Phil. Thanks
Thanks for the video Phil! I recently just gambled my full months wages last pay day, a month before Christmas! What you said in another video about using that "feeling" as motivation to stop has really resonated with me. This really feels like my rock bottom and has made me more determined than ever to begin my recovery. I find your videos really helpful.
