Re: This is my story (long, boring)
You have a serious addiction to gambling.
STOP TODAY. CALL GA AND GET TO A MEETING.
E-mail every poker site you've played at. Tell them to cancel your accounts and never let you open another one. Make sure they know you have a gambling addiction.
You've told your Mom what is going on. Does your wife know the extent of the problem?
Cut up your credit cards, right now. You need to start living on a cash basis. No more credit.
If you want a good life you will need to reconcile with never betting another cent, not sports, not poker, not the lottery.
Then you need to sit down with someone and figure out if you can realistically pay off this debt. If there's any way you can, you should rather than declare bankruptcy.
It's bad, but if you can get it under control now, it can be dealt with before it sucks your whole life down the drain.
You can do this and if you will your life will be significantly brighter a year from now. Taking responsibility today is your only way out. Be an adult. Do it.
