Struggling with finances due to gambling addiction

Accrued 10,000 USD in student loan debt and 5,000 in personal debt due to poor spending habits and early payday loans

What I wish I knew
"To manage finances effectively despite addiction struggles"
If I could tell you one thing
"Seek professional help for addiction and create a budget to avoid debt"
