Gambling Addicition / Financially Struggling

I am a F (24), just started her career last 2025 and has a bf (26) for almost 4 yrs.

I need your opinion because I am struggling mentally, because I didn’t know he was in DEBT like a million? Because of gambling addiction. He confessed last year, exactly our 3rd Anniversary, he said he couldn’t take it anymore and he wanted to break up.

I didn’t agree with it, without hesitation, I said that I will help him get through this, but how long will it take to get better? I OVERTHINK A LOT BECAUSE OF THIS. IS THIS WORTH IT? AM I JUST STAYING BECAUSE OF HOPING THAT HE WILL CHANGE? THAT HE WILL MAKE IT WORTH IT?

I am helping him financially, but sometimes it is tiring. He is kind, diligent in house chores and he never hurt me physically. It’s just, my mood suddenly changes because of overthinking.

I need your comment/opinion on this because I CANNOT TAKE THIS ANYMORE.

I have a lot of dreams, I need to achieve that license, but this happened.

Is this the life I want? But I want to build a life with him or should I just leave? I DON’T KNOW.
