Is it just me?

To start this off, I don't think I am an addict, however if the temptation is there I will take it, the best way to describe it, is an addictive personallity, I understand that I am too easily led, so I don't do it. This includes drinking, smoking and gambling, drinking and smoking I have had a problem with and beaten.

About a year ago I joined a bingo site, a bit of fun, won close to £100, then lost it, then lost another £40, about 2 weeks ago I went back on and lost another £40. I know I am talking small amounts but to be honest that £40 would be alot to us, but it came out of my survey money (I do a shit ton of surveys and most of the money goes into my paypal)

Since then I have been getting 3 or 4 texts a day plus 2-3 emails I have done the whole stop getting these messages and emails but they are still coming. As it stands I have 64 unread texts from Friday and 62 of those are from this bingo site.

I have spoken to my partner and explained that I am started to feel the urge to get it back. IE I lost the £40 but I am sure I can get it back, and he is being really supportive but it is fair that they keep sending me these messages? Is anyone else getting this level of shit?

I went cold turkey after I figured out I had been on the tablets for (I think 6 months) along with still smoking

What tablets?

Can you blacklist yourself from the site?
