Addiction is and will always be accompanied and foreran by worship. You worshiped your way into it, now you'll have to worship your way out.
Any addiction has a cycle
1. The trigger
2. The Incentive
3. The deed
4. Then reality hits you like trailer in form of depression and sadness or broke finances, you'll wanna feel alright and then you go deeper into the addiction trying to find more happiness.
The Bible seriously warned us against gambling. There is a terrible spirit behind this act.
What you can do now is
1. Get rid of any triggers or pre cues that trigger the urge to indulge in that addiction of yours.
Possible triggers are
1. Do you have any "Sure Odd" or "Sure bet" kind of group in your social media accounts? Leave them now!
Do you have any friends that gamble too? Leave them too. The power of the company you keep cannot be underestimated.
2. Change your thoughts. Change the idol in your heart. Seems the addiction was higher than God in your heart. Focus on the master instead of the meat.
Repent, get baptized, and start from scratch. If you're serious about this, I'm very sure God will help you. Also when praying. Pray with faith and belief in God. God hates faithless prayers.

3. This is an extreme measure. Change your location permanently. Your location might be the cause.
