Adam – a former horse racing tipster – shares his gambling addiction story in this special Q&A video.
March 21, 2021 – marks the one-year anniversary since Adam’s last bet. In the video, Adam discusses: • How an innocent football bet on his beloved Sheffield Wednesday got him into gambling • His attraction to horse racing and the thrill of picking a winner • The pressure he felt to provide winning horse racing tips to his Twitter following • How his gambling started to spiral out of control after he began to chase losses • How he hid his gambling problems to friends and family for more than 2 years • The stress of having 14 payday loans • How he hit rock bottom during Cheltenham Festival 2019 and opened up to his parents • How running, walking, reading, watching Netflix, and gaming has helped him recover from gambling and fill the void of time and urges to gamble
